I went with a simple Kelty 4-man and its been great. I like traditional dome tents, easy to set up, take down and repair. I was a volunteer at an overland rally two years ago and saw a bunch of gazelle tents fail in a wind storm. It was wild. they were the worst failing tents of all the tents there. That and they take up a lot of space when packed. They are neat but imo not worth the space and price, esp if they are going to fail in bad weather. They look cool though so you will get overland points.

Kelty tents usually exceed my expectations for the price.

I have a Kelty, an Alps, a North Face, a REI, a Magellan and one from Bass Pro (I can’t remember the name). All are for different situations. Kelty is a great brand. Just realize you are entering a world where you are going to wake up and ask “Do I need another tent?” and the answer is always yes. Applies to backpacks as well :)

We loved our Ozark Trail tent! Set out on a cross country camping trip with a brand new Kelty that we spent a pretty penny on. A week in, a pole broke in the wind and we got SOAKED through the thin floor. Went to a Walmart, picked up an Ozark Trail, and left the Kelty in a dumpster. Never looked back on that decision.

Kelty is always a solid bet. Good quality many choices Helleberg tents will last forever. But the price is high. Many other quality suggestions are listed from others too. Good luck and have fun!

Love my Kelty for car camping. Zippers on the cheap models are frustrating and get stuck a lot.

I've been rocking a kelty tent for 6 years now. I bought it when I first was getting into backpacking and I have used it since. It's a bit heavy comapared to UL tents but I think it is a great tent to start out with. I keep telling myself I am going to buy a new lighter tent, but the kelty has been great.
