I hope it is, I have never had a bug issue with my north face tents (wawona 6 and 8). This is my first ever gazelle tent(T10 Backcountry) and i mainly purchased it for the increased interior space. I'm going camping with it this weekend and ill update on whether i have bug problems or not. I did notice after initial set up it was difficult to get the front door to stick to the floor Velcro evenly and it left a small gap(I did not have the tent staked down all the way around to stretch the floor out and that could have been the issue)
I have the 8 person Gazelle, I love it and it's when the whole family camps, I have a 3 person A-frame for just me when I camp alone, a 4 person when it's me and my sons for scouts, a 2 person backpacking tent for backpacking and a old 2 person tent that was my dad's when he was a teenager.
+1 Gazelle or Clam 4 sided shelter. For a table, I’d splurge and get a Lifetime commercial 4 footer. The ones they use at Costco to fold apparel on. They have a one handed pinch mechanism to raise and lower the legs. No folding, so smooth work surface in the middle and thin profile when stowing.
I just use an Gazelle popup tent. Ample space. Can put a queen bed, pops up in 3m.
Overland setups in/on truck are a pain in the ass. I setup camp and drive away often.
Isn't it AMAZING?!?! I went from being a backpacker to using this because I was mostly out of a vehicle as a rock climber now..
There is so much space, but it's still not overwhelmingly large.
Pop up tents require tons of space to store and transport, weigh significantly more as well.
I don't recommend them at all. Standard family camping tents with aluminum poles are not that hard to setup.
With that being said the Gazelle series instant popup tents are about the best you can get in this category.

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