If you start to notice leaks along your seams, seam sealing can make them waterproof again, extending the life of your tent. The process can be easier than you might think.

Excellent tent, have been using this model for 3 years in different conditions and terrains (mountains, forests, tundra). It withstands northern strong winds and multi-day rains. Still no signs of degradation. Light weight and easy to assemble. Small details like convenient zips also make me happy.

A light and handy tent. On the very first night, the waterproofness was tested in heavy rain, and it lasted well. Easy to assemble, but the only minor inconvenience is that the inner tent must be attached before the outer tent (you have to be quick when setting up in the rain...)

Overall a good tent. Packs into a small space. Easy to assemble.
An adult and a child can sleep well, and there's still a good amount of stuff inside. For an adult camping alone, there is plenty of sleeping space and space for a backpack and equipment. In the apses, shoes and a small amount of clothes are kept dry even during a long rain.
The ventilation works well and the inner tent usually stays dry when the moisture condensed on the inner surface of the outer tent runs down the fabric to the ground.
I especially like the fact that there is a fold sewn above the zipper of the apse doors, along which the water in the rain runs down to the ground and not from the door to the passerby's neck. Similarly, reflective tent cords are good when working in the dark.
I bought a footprint at the same time and it has been necessary to protect the bottom of the tent.
There are very few minuses. You had to string the ropes on the roof of the tent yourself, which you can use to dry socks, for example. The stitching on the seams is a bit frayed in places, they are intact and will probably last, but not really great. The wedges are easy on Finnish rocky forest terrain and bend easily.
