Glenn makes a good point. First let me say that this is one of the neatest shaped tarps available. However, I am not surprised that it weighs 19oz, although is listed as 15oz on the MLD website. The cord and line locs add a little additional weight but still, it is not 15oz. I have a MLD SoloMid that was to weigh 13.2oz. With line and locs, it was 16oz. Again, not a huge difference, but I would prefer weights listed by MLD to include what it will weigh in the field - i.e. what Tarptent does.
