Do you want it to actually fit 2 people? I love my big agnes fly creek UL but when two people are in it, you better be down to cuddle. Me and my bag have sooo much room though
There are a lot of tents for three season use that are under $600, though. People are pointing them out on this thread. I hear that you don't think the trade off is worth it compared to what you have right now, which is valid. But it's not honest to say that "tents" are expensive, and ten cite flagship ultralight tents which are priced to be purchased at sale price (they're both around $450 right now) because that's how our marketing works these days. And you can get a 3lb of another model (Big Agnes Fly Creek UL) that lists for $450 and you can get for u see $350 by waiting for a sale.
There are a lot of options under $600, but the light weight material just really is that expensive. (The shift away from PFAS also increased costs.)
The zoom ul is a good lightweight summer pad but notorious for sleeping cold for its r value. Their sleeping bags/quilts are nothing special either comparing them to cottage companies. Where they shine is their tents. The tigerwall and fly creek ul series semi freestanding tents were the gold standard for backpacking before high end trekking pole tents swooped in. They are still great products though and depending on your use could be worth owning. Their skyline ul stool is overpriced and doesn’t belong in a ul thru hiking bag but is nice to have for shorter trips and other uses outside backpacking. It’s very light and compact so it can come in handy if you need a portable chair for anything.

Spacious vestibule, strong in storms, but rainfly tricky solo.
