Mountainsmith Morrison 4 Person Evo Dome Tent Review

The Morrison 4 Evo has two doors and a peak center height of 4' 3, which is a little bit less than the average height of the 152 different 4 person tents we have studied. With 56 square feet of room inside, it is significantly smaller than some other 4-person tents, and it would be quite tight for you and, up to three other campers during the whole of the 3-seasons, this tent is approved for use in, smaller tents similar to this one often can make an ideal choice for people who like spending plenty of time outside the tent exploring.

Some of the great points about dome tents are, that they are under normal circumstances light, making them easy to carry around. In nearly all cases, tents used for backpacking are of the dome type. They are generally speaking, freestanding and very simple to set up. In calm weather, you could do without guy lines and stakes, not that this is recommended.

Dome tents are without a doubt the most common of all the other sorts of tents you will see when camping. They tend to fair better in bad weather than other types, allowing rain to easily slide off the slanted walls, unlike cabin tents that have flat tops, resulting in the rain pooling on the roof. The most basic dome tent should have a rectangular floor, sloped walls two or more poles which cross in the middle of the roof. Due to the way they are made, it is generally thought of that they are best for up to a maximum of 6 campers.

Below you can find a list of the tent's pros and cons.

PROS

1. Freestanding. The Morrison Evo can support its own weight on any terrain. It does not even have to be staked down in most cases. But in case of strong winds, it is always best to secure it to the floor with the included steel stakes and guylines.
2. Vestibules. Having two vestibules. Affords you somewhere to store shoes and other items that can get dirty, muddy, this is a big plus.
3. Internal storage. It is nice to see Mountainsmith has added a gear loft and pockets in the interior to store some of your things.
4. More than one door. With 2 doors, it is easier to get in and out of the tent, in the middle of the night if needed.
5. Durable, water-resistant floor. The floor material is 68D x 190td Poly F/R, which is a substantially thick and high-strength fabric. Meaning the base is not prone to rips and punctures. Also, the material has a 5000 mm waterproofing rating, which is pretty good for most circumstances.
6. Includes FootPrint. It is quite rare to see a footprint included with the tent. It is suggested to always use a footprint, so not having to pay extra for one is a plus.
7. Awesome Ratings The Morrison 4 has some of the best ratings of all the tents on optimumtents.com
8. Available in other sizes. Mountainsmith has also made this model available in Other Sizes.

CONS

1. Not roomy. With a floor area of 56 square feet, the Morrison 4 is smaller than quite a lot of the 153 other 4 person tents we have looked at.
2. Lacking in Headroom. With 10% less headroom than similar sized tents, one can see how this could be a negative thing for some campers.
3. No windows. With no windows it is not simple to keep the tent cool on a hot summers night.
