Many agree this Bibler tent is solid, light enough and very easy to set up (from the inside). There has been no wind or severe weather reports stating this tent is affected anyway. The true four season tent.

A fair few have reported condensation becoming an issue. Some also found set up quite difficult, whilst others found it simple (with any tent, pitch and practice at home). Many found the vestibule is important for storage in harsh conditions.

The Bibler fitzroy tent model is a newer model by Black Diamond, that is more solid than the Elderado above. Sleeps two or three persons, with two doors for easier access, although vestibule is still an optional extra.

The design is a four pole structure with steep sided walls to help maximize headroom, when moving within a tent becomes important.
