I have a Kelty TN3 that was a Christmas gift back in 2015, it's still going strong.
I use a kelty 3 man for car camping- it’s light and plenty of room for gear and myself and enough room for the get times my wife came camping. and I like it enough that I got the 2p backpack version. It also probably way und your budget number
I have a 3 person kelty that has served me well
I've had great luck with Kelty backpacking tents. You can usually find sales for less than $100 for the 2-3 person ones. They're pretty light and was fine when I got stuck in a storm while motocamping. If you are car camping for now you can skip the cooler and just bring canned/dehydrated food and a pot. Then when you have the funds for some lighter backpacking gear you already have a tent
I bought a Walmart tent a few years back and camped with my girlfriend. Downpour happened. She ran in tent, I cleaned up and came into the tent soaked. It was leaking because it was shit material. And she farted right before I came in so my only safe space from the rain smelled like fart. Rough go. Bought a Kelty tent after and haven’t looked back haha.
I have two Kelty tents that have been great. I used many times and have held up great. Moderately priced for the causal camper. Too heavy for backpacking but great for campgrounds.
Kelty has amazing reviews, when I was looking to upgrade an old Kmart tent I did a bunch of research and ended up with a Kelty. So far no regrets!
