About that stuff sack: yeah, I'm not real happy about it either. It's like trying to pack a log. I replaced it with a couple of smaller stuff sacks, which lets me pack much more efficiently and gives me the added bonus of being able to separate a wet fly from a less-wet tent.

Of course, if you don't pop the cross-piece out of the Rainbow, it's not exactly a moldable sausage either.

They're both great tents, though - definitely in the top 3 solo tents available. (I don't know what the third would be.)
