Anyone have a zpacks tent? Thinking of picking up the 3 man/triplex to use myself and partner for hiking. Heard good things but wanted a bit more feed back before I hit go on a tent that is double the price of other tents.

Double-wall or single-wall important to you? Trekking pole supported or free-standing? Budget? Super light (so I guess single wall/tarp), super durable and either trekking pole or two poles. Basically what the zpacks triplex is. Just wanting to know is it poo poo hot before I drop money into it (or other/better companies who are cheaper but just as good).

Does it need a foot print/ground sheet under it? Heard people don't but still...digging for the finer details.

I'm 6 foot 2 so not super big but we've found with 2 man tents, it can start a row. For the sake of an extra few oz, I'd rather have the space honestly. My other half is a touch messy in the tent (and I am too sometimes) so it would give us the room we need to throw gear around etc. Plus, I'd string up some para cord along the width at the highest point for a drying line when the weather sucks. The only downside is pitch placement is a touch more restrictive.
