I'm a fan of Coleman 4 person tents. I have no problem setting mine up in about ten minutes by myself. This is my current deluxe version - I like having the little porch for storing my shoes, having a place to sit if it's raining or insanely buggy and what not.

We got a new 6P tent that turned out to be huge. It’s fine when we take 6 grandchildren but just cavernous for us as a couple. Camp Coleman Dark Room Skydome 4P is a very appealing tent. But I purchased the Eureka Space Camp 4P for the same price (on big sale) because it offered front/rear vestibules and formed metal poles providing more headroom and stability. We love the Eureka! (The Eureka brand has been discontinued by Johnson Outdoors. However, there seems to be plenty of inventory in the supply chain.)

The Coleman Darkroom Skydome is a great festival tent, and cheap, and waterproof even with the shorter fly unless you get a defective one. I use an 8 man as my festival tent and everything stays dry even though I don’t guy out (so no one trips)

And the darkroom fly keeps the morning sun from waking you up and the heat down inside the tent. Mine has started to leak but only after several years of keeping it up for 6-8 months at a time. And many years of more typical use before that

I do a lot of beach camping, and have a 4 person Coleman dome tent that has stood up to 35+mph winds on Cape Lookout. The only issue was that the wind was blowing the sand so hard it came up and into the vents in the top of the tent. It has gone through other thunderstorms too. One wiped out 3/4s the tents at Ocracoke and ours was standing strong. Probably not the best tent, but it has survived a lot of heavy weather. Ours has the little patio entrance thing, which is nice for sand. Just make sure you have good stakes.
