This is a thought for those of you looking for suggestions about buying tents.
I have noticed that there are still tents on the market that do not have awnings over the doors. This is especially a problem for dome or rounded style tents.
Awnings over doorways are important when it rains. Especially with dome or round shaped tents, if you do not have an awning that will keep rain off of the doorway, rain will come rolling off the ten and into the inside of the tent.
Tents with vestibules that cover the doorway seem like a good idea until it actually rains. You unzip the main cabin door. Then you unzip the vestibule of the rain fly. Rain comes strait down into your tent. The only way you can avoid this when it rains is to not go in/out of the tent and that means no toilet trips
