Does it have some sort of rain fly or can you only sleep in it when it is nice weather without any light rain showers?

No rain fly - I have this hammock and I just use a cheap tarp from a hardware store. The cheap ones are surprisingly light weight. That way I can get it a bit bigger and keep my gear dry. Or if it's nice, there's a million other things I use tarps for.

It's all mesh except the doors. I don't know if I would use it without the rain fly on it, but it would be great on a clear and starry night! You would defiantly want to keep the rainfly doors rolled up in the summer to get some ventilation. I've used it in teen degree temperatures and it was livable. It's certainly a sturdy tent in the wind. And snow/rain tight. Recommended.

Their is a window on the door and one on the back wall (opposite of door). The entire top of tent is screen material under the rainfly. If you take the rainfly off it is like sleeping under the stars.

This tent does not come with a rain fly however i spent two nights of rain in this tent and recomend spraying it with rain protectant.

Yes, it comes with a rain fly. The only thing about the rainfly is that it doesn't cover the entire screened in porch area. So, if you have things in that area, they might get wet. We haven't used it yet in a rain storm, so not sure of the severity of the rain getting in. But our first nights in the tent were great!

It does but it's only good for short storms. It even handled some light hail one day. We did on the other hand, used it during an all day rain event and we got very wet inside. It can leak from my experience. It is a nice and roomy tent but I recommend using some waterproof sealer on the rain fly. Chris

It does not come with a rain fly but does have the isoform belt. This pack was so comfortable on a 5 day trip. I damaged the pack a little from dragging the pack up a rock face with a rope and tore some holes in it. I called them and they said send it in. They replaced the whole pack no questions asked and the offered me to choose any color I wanted and size. They have the best customer service I've ever experienced. I will never buy any other pack but osprey!!

A pad or air mattress to sleep on (some campsites use crushed shell) and a sheet to keep mosquitoes off you. It rarely gets below 70 at night. As for this sleeping bag, it is very comfortable. used it in NY in 40 degree weather. Would suggest a liner to make cleaning easer. I use it as an extra sleeping pad in FL. Tonight the low here is going to be 79 in central FL.

Short answer: no. Long answer, I have only had it for a few weeks or so now and Summer is just starting. While I don't think it's "heavy," it's far too warm for Summer. That being said, I've been using it half covered up/partially covered up with the windows open (no air con) and it's really comfy to roll around with, but you'll wake up sweating if you're fully covered. Hope that helps.

On the low setting where I tend to use it it has a low wind sound like a breeze from a distance. Easy to adjust to. On medium, it's just enough to put you to sleep. On high, which I don't use, it is quite noticeable.

Yes the rain fly comes with the tent and it's necessary as the whole roof is screened and open (a real nice feature on hot days)... Also, I would suggest keeping the rain fly on at all times, even if it isn't going to rain, because the screen roof collects dew and 3-5am dew drops are no fun...

It doesn't have an external rain fly.Also beware of using this tent in heavy winds. It will collapse.

Question. I'm told this tent is not good because the roof is solid and dew will build up overnight from your breath and drip in the morning. Is this true? Most tents have a mesh top with rainfly over that.

The tent itself comes with a rain fly. I thought the same question and still bought one just in case. The problem with the rain fly I found while it rained, hailed and snowed all in the same night was...when you zipper down.the zipper will come off the track and its hard as hell to re zipper it in the dark. But back to your question no the cot tent does come with a rain fly

Yep, it come with a full rain fly as well. I'm not sure how well it keeps you dry in 'extreme' downpours, but it did work well in the light/moderate rain I was in.

Yes it does come with a rain fly. It covers the majority of the tent pretty good except for the front door of the screened in porch. There are drain vents in that area if water does get in the screened area.
