Anyone tried the Lansan Ultralight 2-person tent?

Has anyone used this tent? Have never got a tent from Kathmandu before, but 1.7kg sounds good. Bit odd that the inner (tent, not fly) length dimension isn't available in the product info. But I'm looking at using it for myself (<160cm) and a toddler/child so smallish "2 person" is probably ok. http://www.kathmandu.co.nz/lansan-ultralight-tent-silver.html Thanks for any opinions. (or advice on the specs)

Yeah, I'd strongly recommend the Wild Country Zephros 2 Lite tent. I had one until I had it nicked recently :-( It's a super design, based on the more expensive Terra Nova Laser tents which are from the same UK company, though the Wild Country ones are made in China. I haven't seen anyone retailing them currently in NZ, Torpedo 7 had them on offer a while back but no longer have stock. It pitches outer fly first which is always useful in a downpour, and can be used with just outer fly. The 2 Lite version v the normal 2 is slighter lighter, 1.3kg v 1.79kg, and packs smaller with the two mini end poles being split.
@lloydy Outdoor Action have the standard Zephyros 2 in stock at a helluva good price : http://www.outdooraction.co.nz/wild-country-zephyros-2-tent.html I've got one too, great little tent.
The Zephyros 2 looks good. However already bought the Lansan. Slept in it last night, was easy to set up and comfy and cosy but with perfect weather conditions it wasn't much of a test. Medical issue meant our plans had to change at short notice, and I needed to buy before yesterday - or would have lost the chance to get out of town for a night during my Xmas break.
