G'day Andrew,

The Green Fly isn't available in Australia currently so we are unable to source this at the moment sorry.

G'day Jason,

We don't have one of these on display but ive just combed through all of MSR's info and videos and there's no additional mesh sling loft.  Looks like the design hasn't changed since 2018, and there is just the 2 x built-in mesh loft sections.

G'day Kylie,

The mesh in the Elixir Tents isn't no-see-um, however MSR specify that it is 20D polyester micromesh. Based on feedback they do a good job of keeping most things out, however, midges can get through almost anything, so we'd recommend pairing it with some repellant if you're in an area with a higher incidence of midges.

I really couldn't recommend one brand over the other, Michael, they both produce high-end tents and you are probably down to small things that are of personal preference.

Some things I would point out are the extra mesh of the interior on the Tungsten being better for warm weather and it offers a bit more internal space. The vestibule design on the Elixir is well considered, it eliminates the point where there is usually unused space and has a different zipper position than most, you are paying a premium price for the MSR brand though. As for the fortress, a reliable tent with a traditional design and full nylon inner which will be warmer, but is the heaviest of all the tents you have pointed out.

At the end of the day, I think you'd be happy with any of these tents, go with what you like the best, or what your gut tells you to do.
