Agreed
I also own this bivy and agree with Benjamin - good product, lightweight, packs down small, roomy and has kept me dry so far.

Great productLikes: Very roomy - you can pull your pack and other gear inside if you needed to
The bug mesh is invaluable
Packs down nicely, lightweight
I'm really happy with the overall shape - even in a storm you can just pull down the head cover and keep ventilation holes that point downward near your head
Dislikes: Condensation builds up inside fairly easily
I've also used the MH conduit bivy for comparison. The Conduit has an open face and I switched to the Micronight for the bug mesh and the storm flap. The Aurora bivy by Outdoor Research is a full waterproof version of the Micronight (5 oz heavier). After a call to OR to verify the difference, they told me that if you allowed water to pool up on the fabric of the Micronight, it could eventually leak through. A loop in the center of the bivy (when layed out flat) would allow you to tie a cord to something above you, propping up the center of the bivy to stop any rain/snow from building up. I like it!
