More complete description of the Marmot Area 51 tent can be seen at these two web sites: http://www.backcountrygear.com/catalog/tentdetail.cfm?PRODUCTS__productID=MA8052 It says it has a "bath tub floor" or here http://www.gorp.com/gorp/gear/features/buy_tent3.htm BTW- it certainly pays to shop around. Doing a google search on the Area 51 I found the sale price from $600 to $160. With the majority in the $180-200 range.
