Easy to setup Quality and durability have never been an issue for me or people I know. I'm sure someone somewhere will be like "they are junk". Condensation control is going to depend on the weather as there is plenty of vents. Might be better off with 2 T4's from Gazelle.

We have a Gazelle T-Hex. Just wife and I. We like the single, large room so we can set our queen bed up and have ample room on 3 sides. Even room for the camp chairs inside if bad weather. It measures about 12' across and even more tied down. Never had a spot it didn't fit.

We have the wawona 6 for our shorter, lighter trips and a gazelle t-hex overland tent for longer outings. Love both but the gazelle is the best, but it’s big packed down and requires roof mounting or a roof box with gear + people/dogs in the car. We car camp in a Rivian R1S for scale. The gazelles are like 70” long in the bag. But it’s the most amazing tents.

Only downside with those is the size when taken down. Not sure what kind of car OP has.

A few years ago Academy Sports decided to use that same pop out technology, and now I have 2 *basically* [Gazelle clones](https://i.imgur.com/eiUXlrM.jpeg) that I paid less than $250 total. They are fking amazing tents. The blue one is my favorite. Butttttt Academy being Academy they never actually pushed it even though they are extremely awesome.

I've been considering a roof mount because mine make the bed a little awkward because I need to lay it diagonal.

If packed up space and relatively large weight is not bad then consider a hub style tent. I like my Gazelle Overland edition. The doors are a little tricky getting in and out but in all other regards (setup and takedown) it seems like that would be a good fit.

Bought mine from Amazon. Apparently the green color T4 and the blue overland are available at REI

Lol. No, we aren't bots. You'll see really positive reviews outside of reddit as well, including video reviews on YT. The biggest draw is the ease of set-up. It's so nice to have it up in literally 1-2 minutes. But also the height all throughout the tent makes for a wonderful camping experience. I actually enjoy hanging out in my tent. It also feels sturdier than most tents but would definitely need guy lines in windy conditions. The only problem I have with it is its size when packed up in its bag. It can be a pain if you don't have a truck or van to transport it. Not everyone likes the door but I have no issues with it.

We have a two Gazelle tents (one one-room and one two-room) and their gazebo. They are a breeze to set up and definitely not a gimmick!

I would suggest two tents then. We have a massive Gazelle tent and it is geared for 4-8 people but if I had to share it, I would only say four people comfortably with our stuff inside the tent too. It sounds like you have a pop up tent too? These will always be long and bulky because of what they are. Our old tent was very compact when packed up but was not a pop up and took longer to set up. My husband hates the size and weight of the Gazelle but it is the trade off of ease of setting up/breaking down that he gets for it. I think your idea to go bigger to fit more people inside a tent is not ideal if you are already worried about the size of your current tent.
