It’s the Jade canyon 4 person/3 season. It arrived with a large slit cut in it (I removed it just peeling the tape so it wasn’t me) and that just soured me from the start to be honest. But I taped it with gorilla tape after they said I’d have to pay to ship it back to them. The tape worked fine. It’s just an eyesore. Anyways my biggest gripe with the tent is no zippered windows. There are toggles and these obnoxious clips for the corner that just take forever to maneuver around an air mattress to even get to. It’s honestly such a huge thing for me; I didn’t really anticipate being so persistently annoying. Also the poles don’t break down into consistently sized end pieces so packing it is also cumbersome. I feel like my dislike is bordering on being somewhat irrational because otherwise it’s a fine tent.
People math and tents get hard. I'd always lean towards one person extra, so a 4p tent. There aren't a lot of light options in 4p tents though. We used a Eureka 4p tent for years, that weighed 8 lbs, and tried several times to find an alternative but never found anything worth it. At the actual 3p level, we have a Nemo Dagger Osmo 3p, that is pretty amazing, but we've only ever used it for 2 people. It's also very expensive, and doesn't seem to go on sale very often.
I LOVE my 4p Eureka! tent. Bought it used 10 years ago and just redid the waterproofing and seam seals.
I’ve got two Eureka’s (2 and 4 person). The two is from 1995. No issues with either
