I also have a Zpacks Hexamid duplex.   Absolutely love it.   Best tent, by far, I have ever owned in 50 years of backpacking.  Having entryway and full mesh on both sides, as well as storm doors, make for an airy and luxurious, yet very light, shelter.

We've been hiking for a long time and reluctantly, as we get older, realize that every ounce does count. Our 10 year-0ld Shires tarp tent, which we loved, flew over a precipice in the Sierra Nevada recently and we needed to replace it quickly for our forthcoming CDT hike.
