It does exactly what its supposed to do and it does it well. I've used my Choas 3 a few times with it and the tent still looks brand new. It fits under the tent well and its clips attach to the fly snuggly. I'm happy with this footprint. I'm also happy that it is available to Canadians from whatcampingtent.com in Canada (no customs).

The zipper broke off the main door and could not reattach. Not waterproof and had water everywhere. Had to cover the tent with a tarp. Poor design having the door get onto the floor. It got all muddy. Do not buy unless you are not using it for camping and more for pretend play.

At first, like others, I didn’t like the setup of this tent. However, this was because I set it up the first time in the living room for practice. In the field, it’s very easy. Stake the footprint, stake the tent, put two poles in one side, and go grab the two poles on the other side and push up. Then, it’s as simple as clipping and setting up the easy rainfly. Anyone struggling with this must be inside their homes.

Performance: It didn’t leak for rain. It handled a snow squall. Above all else, it didn’t budge in an epic night terror storm with 80-90 mph winds (speed confirmed the next morning at the ranger station). To be clear, it was fully staked and taught-lined that night. Plenty of room for two. Double vestibules for gear (although it doesn’t come with enough stakes for vestibules, but those are easy enough to carve up quick in the field). Pockets to hold stuff and many loops to hang stuff. Glowing zippers are great. For backpacking it’s light enough if one totes tent and one totes food. For car camping it is good too. Wonderful product!

It works well as a lightweight tent. As far as a hot tent goes it does have some issues however. The material is very thin and the stove pipe will melt it if not careful. The placement of the stove jack is also not where I would have put it. I will definitely use it without a stove. For the price it’s still a good deal for a backpacking tent. If all the guy lines are tight it’s very sturdy.

This may be a 2 person tent in China but unless you are a person of the smallest stature, this is barely a one person tent.
