I have a Kodiak 8x14 and it’s been great for the times i need the extra room.
It's hard to beat a Kodiak or Springbar flex bow canvas tent for ease of install. It's significantly easier than setting up a comparable size nylon tent as long as you use an impact driver to get all your stakes in. Mine is 74 inches tall on the inside and is extremely sturdy. It's naturally waterproof so you don't have to fuss with a rain fly and canvas breathes much better. You can use chimneys with some of them since you look like you do some cold weather stuff, I don't know anything about that. Here's mine, a Kodiak 10x14 VX model. It will probably outlive me.

Love my 10x10 Kodiak flexbow deluxe VX
My Flex bow has been through some pretty good storms
Love my Kodiak flexbow. Over $400 though.
Kodiak or Springbar canvas tent. For 6 people you’ll want a 10x14. They’re pricey but very worth it IMO.
Kodiak 10x14 . my partner is 6'1" and can stand up. I have a 10x10, and love it, but wish I had bought the larger one . Kodiak holds in wind and rain. Good in cold weather. You can get a heater also, but we don't have one. I use a Coleman double cot and air mattress. We camp year round in Southern California, coldest we've camped is 27°. I can put mine up alone , woman , 5'6" and in my 60s.
I love our flexbow kodiak 10x14 (with the side windows) tent! Its heavy but I can set it up myself. That thing has lasted through 40mph winds on a beach when our friends tents collasped, lasted through crazy rain storms, a tornado warning, and hail. It's a beast of a tent!
Are you car camping? Are you camping in cold weather? For cold weather camping we love our 10x14 kodiak flexbow.
Kodiak flexbow all the way.
A canvas tent makes all the world of difference in 30F and less. We use our kodiak when camping in 5F weather. Prior to that we had a coleman. The kodiak is far superior with heat retention.
