The tent is made by Tentsmiths. They are a very highly regarded tent manufacturer. The weight is listed in the ad. This is a very lightweight tent and is no longer made because the fabric is only made by one mill in the world and the manufacturer requires a very large quantity to be purchased at one time.

I don't know the model. Look at the picture, it's a standard wedge tent with the optional stove jack installed. Another added feature are the Easton aluminum poles. The tent does not come with poles from Tentsmiths.

Lightly used tent is 8'x9.5', just over 6' tall. External frame wedge tent with a 3" stove jack. Fabric is 4.5 oz. cotton sail cloth, with cotton sod cloth all around the bottom. The weave is so tight it looks and feels like Ventile. Craftsmanship on the tent is excellent, and the overall condition of the tent is excellent, with the exception of a rip in one corner at the very bottom edge, that has been professionally repaired(see photos). It has a 5 pole frame (center pole and 2 side poles on each end) made from Easton aluminum poles, easily converted to internal frame with a little trimming of ridge pole . Packed tent, with poles, weighs about 16 lb. Tent alone is about 11 lbs, poles 5 lbs. Packed size with everything in one bag is about 27" long and 11" diameter. No holes, rot, or mildew. Price is $850 US, and includes shipping CONUS.
