I've got an Alpkit one, super impressed. Wish I'd bought green though to blend in.
I use a fishing tarp and they're perfect. Cheaper and with the eyelets in useful places. Most often i actually use the tarp on the ground and wrap my bags inside it. Mostly because i've used it fields more than forests.
But doesn't the 3000mm HH rating mean it won't?
Might just get a lighter tent then. Currently got a crappy 2/3 man.
Edit: I think you're right about the waterproof zips. But it does have a large flap which covers the zip. Meaning most water (if from above) won't get near it.
