Anyone Using/Have Tested the Badlands Artemis Tents??

Title says it all. Just curious why there is no real info out there on the Badlands Artemis tents? Is it that bad, just mediocre, way better options? Feedback, anyone?

Also interesting in this.

I was sent two of their generation 1 tents to test and it failed the first night. I got snowed and sleeted on the next 5 days.

The lifetime warranty is a plus though… I guess lol

So I did end up buying both sizes of the Artemis series of tents. Actually pretty impressed! Overall they're a bit heavier than comparable tents, but I also believe that they're built with slightly more durable materials. The design is also a front entry, so you only have one vestibule, if that's an issue. Super simple setup and decent airflow. I'm keeping the 2-person version (because my son will be coming with me occasionally now) and I listed the 1-person in the classifieds. I've also owned a Nemo Tracker 2-person (sold it almost immediately) and the Big Agnes Copper Spur HV UL2 (still have it, and love it).

Is the Nemo Tracker the one that comes in First lite ? Good to know about the badlands tent I just picked one up but got a little nervous when I saw they were discontinued.

Yes, the tracker is similar to the Dragonfly, but in FL camo. I actually think that the headroom and vestibule is more usable in the Badlands Artemis series. Not saying that there's not better, but definitely not bad. Just used my 2P over the weekend!
