Not sure why this would get downvoted. I used a Nemo Meta 1 trekking pole tent that stood up to winds in Patagonia that shredded a friends MSR. Winds ripped a guyline attachment off the body of my Nemo tent, but the tent wasn't going anywhere. 6 Moons is designed the same way but with better ventilation. I can't speak to the material of the 6 Moons though as I've only looked at it online.
Nemo tents pack pretty small and are light. The new dragonfly seems like a good option. If it’s just you and another person a 2 person might be more than enough space.
Doesn’t help when you’re on top of the mountain in the pouring rain :)
Edit this sounds a bit harsh. NEMO makes good tents I’ve owned a couple. These days I just prefer something a bit heavier.
Nemo makes great tents. i have two, one has been with me since 2012 and still works great. i got another one last year with more room cuz i have more dogs. i like that they sell internal floors to keep dogs from making holes with their paws. i also love how easy they are to set up, and how durable the materials seem to be.
Coleman actually makes a decent budget friendly tent that’s perfect for car camping. It’s my recommendation for those that are getting started with camping.
For mid range, REI makes great tents. I’m a big fan of their half dome.
When I decided to spend money on a good tent, I ran into similar paralysis. I narrowed it down to Big Agnes or Nemo and ended up going with the Nemo due to a thicker floor, since I’d be camping with kids and dogs. I’ve omen very happy with Nemo and have since purchased two more tents.
