We have the Tiger Wall UL-2 and it’s done really well in rainy conditions honestly. The only gripe I have about it is it’s not truly 100% freestanding. You have to stake out the two corners by the foot to open it up all the way and to attach the fly.
It’s definitely roomy for one person and I’ve taken it solo before. That being said my Seedhouse SL-1 is a lot more compact and lighter so I usually take that when I go solo. Never messed with Hubba Hubba though so I can’t speak to those.
Wait, what is their buy back?
I've had so many BAs, currently have a Copper Spur 3 I split with my partner, It's awesome. This is coming from 20 years of a Seedhouse.
No but Coleman is typically low to mid grade, I'd recommend higher quality brands like Big Agnes, REI, Marmot, etc. which you can probably find for a price pretty close to that (especially if there's a sale).
I mostly hammock camp these days, but I also have a fair amount of tent experience in an REI Kingdom (big, decent for car camping) and a Big Agnes Seedhouse (small, light, great 2 person tent).
If you're going to let the kids in your tent, don't get the very lightest they are too delicate. I like ba seed house. Roomy, pretty light and bomb proof.
I sold my bivvy after a pretty miserable experience in the UP in some hot and humid conditions last summer.
Used a single person Big Agnes tent in hot and humid conditions in PR recently. Much better camping experience. Worth the extra pound and packability issues IMO.
I switched from a Big Agnes 1P to an Xmid Pro 2P last year and I haven’t looked back. I love it! Like you, I always have my trekking poles and I grew wary of always having a separate tent pole. Also, my 1P tent was ridiculously small. My Xmid sleeps colder since it’s a single wall tent, so I bought a second quilt (much warmer) so that I can continue backpacking year round and keep warm overnight.
I have had problems pitching my Big Agnes on hard dirt so I ran long sturdy sticks through my BA pitching loops and I put rocks on the ends of the sticks.

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