I have the Nemo aurora high rise 4p tent and my husband and I love it. Super easy to put together and take down, very good in rain and wind.
We are expecting our first baby and wanted something bigger so we will be purchasing the north face wawona 6p once there is a 20% Rei sale. I have a ton of Nemo tents and gear and I absolutely love everything. But that wawona vestibule is calling my name and I can’t wait to try it out. I think you will be happy with either one.
One thing I absolutely love about the Nemo is that you can open and close the windows from the inside. It’s a small thing but I love it.
We have a Nemo 4 person that is a really nice that takes about 5 minutes to set up and about 10 to breakdown. I think it's the Aurora... we've had for years and even my kid can set it up.
Nemo 4-person Aurora Highrise...15 minute solo set up, great rain fly, very good ventilation. Looked at a lot of tents before landing on this one...no regrets

Huge fan of the big Agnes bunk house. Picked one up last year in 6p for the wife and I and it’s awesome. Buddy has the Nemo aurora 4p and it’s sweet too. The floor is really tough. I like the bunk house better though. Its bomber quality and easy to set up and take down, breathes really well even tho it looks like it wouldn’t b.
With the fly off the entire roof and the about 1/3 the height of the wall are mesh and you can see out. The doors on each end have a fabric cover that can be unzipped and are about 1/3 or more mesh. You can also manipulate that with the fly on and how u set the vestibules to change the air flow thru the tent. But even buttoned all the way down it still breathes really well, no condensation even camping in the rain in winter. I actually don’t understand how but it’s awesome. Build quality is excellent all around.
Edit to add if you can find a deal on last years model that is orange don’t be discarded by the color. It’s really nice in person, like a rich burnt southwest deep sunset orange. Pics make it look awful. Bonus is it does a great job filtering sunlight so the tent stays cool and it’s nice if u are sleeping in cuz it is not too bright inside. New color looks dope tho.
I was able to pick it up for 450 last fall. With Labor Day sales coming up it might hit your target.
No problem. The mesh is really nice and thick. It looks like you wouldn’t be able to see through it or even like fabric in the pics but is great for star gazing and keeps the no see ums out. The inside space is huge. I’m 6’1 and can walk through the whole tent, almost to the edge of the wall. It’s really comfortable if you want space plus a queen size sleeping area and room to sit and change or play games or whatever.
