I've been using this tent for over two years now – it has survived scorching summer heat (with high temperatures even at night), freezing winters (down to -15°C), heavy rain, snowstorms, and strong winds. I'm not gentle with my gear – I've slept on uneven ground, with roots and branches underneath, and the terrain was rarely flat. After many trips (from 2 to 8 nights each), the tent doesn't show any signs of damage. The material is tough and resistant to stretching – it doesn't crack or tear. Condensation inside? Yes, it happens – after all, it's a bivy, not a typical tent. Does it protect against rain? Yes, very effectively. If you don't have a sleeping bag, the interior can get damp, but it's manageable to get through the night. At this weight (1.1 kg), you won't find anything more durable that offers such sleeping comfort.

The bivy is very easy to set up and take down, and it's lightweight. During heavy rain, a large puddle forms around it. There's plenty of space inside for me; you can fit in with your luggage. In general, everything is fine, the construction seems durable.

Unfortunately, despite using breathable material and having ventilation, water still condenses on the walls. With very heavy rain, I am considering using a tarp to prevent soaking. The bivy is very light and great for hiking trips.

I tested the tent in the mountains during summer, often in meadows. Both pitching and packing are very fast. The tent is discreet; it gets slightly stuffy when it rains, especially if you sleep on your side rather than on your back. When lying on your side, water condenses on the walls. Usually in the morning, the top part of the sleeping bag was slightly damp from dew. An additional advantage is the beautiful views you see through the mesh right after waking up.

I've been using the Snugpak Stratosphere for two years and it works great. It's low to the ground, so it's perfect for stealth camping. It's very easy to set up and pack. It doesn't leak during rain, though there is some condensation—which the manufacturer honestly warns about, so I have no complaints. It's hard to expect there wouldn't be condensation in a single-wall tent—it's a natural physical phenomenon. That's why I recommend using sleeping bags or blankets that are water-resistant. It gets warmer inside because we generate heat ourselves, which in summer can be a downside when closed during rain, but in autumn and winter it allows you to sleep with a lighter sleeping bag or just a blanket. The tent is long enough to let you store your gear inside—it's best to put your backpack by your feet so the rain doesn't create a puddle on the fabric. There's also plenty of room by your head for small items; there's even a pocket there. When packed, it takes up little space in your backpack. For outdoor overnights, the Stratosphere is completely sufficient for me. Maybe comfort would be greater in a big tent, but it would be harder to pack all the gear in one backpack. After all, we don’t take only a tent and a sleeping bag on a trip. I recommend this tent to all minimalists and stealth camping fans. The price is high, but here you don't have to worry about breaking poles in the cold or bending pegs when staking the tent.

It has small size and weight, exactly what you require from such equipment.
-
My first impressions are the compact size and low weight for a tent—it's even smaller than some summer sleeping bags.
-
I like the idea behind this product. It's cramped inside. During heavy, long rain, it didn't leak and nothing dripped on my head. I don’t regret the money spent, even though the price was high.
-
It meets all my requirements.
