I'm not sure how one would assess waterproofing by this video. Waterproof is essential for me in the Pacific NW. My experience with White Duck is that their tents are very well-made. My canvas bell tent from them has performed extremely well. Never had an issue with leaks after a proper seasoning. My tent was up for months with no leakage during Florida's rainy season. I wish I had been able to bring it to my present location. The Rover is, I believe, a cotton/poly mix, so I can only judge White Duck on past performance, which was excellent. That being said, I'd like to inspect the seams on the Rover, know if they are taped, etc., and hear from verified purchasers about their experience with the Rover in rainy conditions. This is one of their best-priced tents, and I like it very much for its interior, and side ventilation. In my present area, this tent could be utilized year-round if it perform well in the rain.
