I have one of the Ozark Trail connectents, basically a cube tent that attaches to the canopy and I love it. Vertical walls allow a full 10x10 footprint and large windows for air flow.

I am not a fan of big box stores . But.... we have found the best tent for rain is the Ozark trail 6 man tent
We have had LLBean and other expensive tents and hands down Ozark Trail has preformed the best in a hard driving rain .
We also have 1 tent that is a 4 man for storage
For full disclosure , I have a Slumberjack " day break " 6 man tent it is great in the rain.. My niece has 2 kids and is the one that uses Ozark trail brand.
No matter what brand we always " fly " a nylon tarp about 3 feet above the tents if we know the weather can turn.
Go to Walmart and buy some Ozark trail camping goods .
Tent
Tarp
Rope
Hammocks
Or
Chairs
Sleeping bags
Cots or air matresses.

My niece uses this brand .
The tents and tarps are great . This summer will be year 6 with Ozark Trail gear
It is affordable and sturdy
Honestly I don’t think you’ll have much trouble. I bought a 6 person Ozark tent for me my son and partner when we went to Utah last year and hadn’t gone since I was 11 or 12 and set it up on my own because they’re so different now lol!!!! Didn’t have to slide poles through fight anything etc. mine just clicked to the poles. So as long as you feel comfortable with the price and brand 2 person Ozark should be ok! Esp to start off. We had good blankets weren’t cold at all had 0 tent issues (:
I've had a Ozark Trail 6 man tent from Walmart for several years. It packs up nice and small, and will comfortably fit two people with all their gear. I can set it up by myself in about 20 minutes. You'll want to throw a tarp over it for when it rains.
