for how many people? i love my marmot tents. i have 4 different ones now. a giant 6p for family / car camping. a 3p for when its just me and another adult or me and my two kids. a 1p ul backpacking tent. i also have a much older 3p tent maybe 10yr old that had a "window" in the rain fly that delaminated a year ago and they replaced the entire tent with my current brand new 3p tent for freeee. i thought they would just send a replacement rain fly but got a whole new tent and then fixed the rainfly on my own. my 1p tent i've had for 15+ years and its holding up great still.

The tungstens are awesome. A little heavy and bulky for backpacking but you can totally make it work too. I have a 1p and 3p and they are my go to for car camping. I used to use them for backpacking until I got lighter stuff.
My recommendation as a life scout having been in an active scout troop for 5 years is the Marmot tungsten 2p. It has plenty of room, is easy to set up, and is nearly bullet proof. I have had the 3p version for 4 years with no issues. The tent can be used 4-seasons out of the year, and is light enough to take on backpacking trips. You shouldn’t have to buy your scout another tent in his duration in scouting(provided they take proper care of it)
I've had that marmot tent since 2014 and use it at least 10 times a year. The rain fly seams will let a heavy rain weep through but besides that I've had zero issues. I wouldn't think the waterproofing would give any issues if it's still new, it'll be roomier than that 2p as well.
Not sure, I received the 3P Tungsten & set it up. It had everything I expected (minus stakes for guy lines, but I don’t think that is exclusive to Sam’s). Solid little tent, heavy but solid.
This ☝️. I'd also go with the Marmont if all is in good condition.
Tungsten 3 person yeah!
Hmm mine is a year old. Not sure about any extra wing. Just realized there’s a cool pocket sleeve at the top of the tent on my last trip. No issues with this tent so far.
I have this tent in 3P, recommend it if you ever bring a second person or a dog it helps, also you can spread gear out if it rains.
I've got the 3P and it's great. Good design, easy setup, and lots of nice little features, like pockets, hooks, and air vents.
I have the Tungsten 3p, I was looking at the 2p but went with the 3p for for a little bit more space, the difference in weight was only about a pound. It's a decent tent.
