I have an 18 year old North Face Tadpole 23, and have been very pleased with it. I just bought a new Tadpole 23 at the North Face Outlet (thank god they had the footprint) and it's great, too. Pretty good sized vestibule for my stuff. If I'm solo, all the stuff can come inside. I used it with both kids (ages 9 and 6) for S24O's. I used it without the fly on Mt Diablo, and the breathability was great.
