Lightweight Dome Quick Set-up Tent

Yep. I’ve had my Ozark trail 4 person tent for about 5 years now, we camp at least three times a summer usually more. The tent still is in great condition no leaks (I did spray it with weatherproofing when I first got it) and all the zippers are still good.

Much depends on your use. Are you driving out and camping in a campground? Basically car camping? Do you hike in 15 miles, camp and hike out? Do you use your tent just to sleep or do you hang out in it? Do you share your tent? It seems like it is just you and the dog and maybe one other person and it is out and back weekends at a campground. For long trails, backpacking months at a time, Durston tents are good for one or two people. The Pro 2p is what I’ve owned in the past. The XMid has a good price point. The REI half dome has more interior room and is easier to set up. For car camping and spending some time in the tent an Ozark Trails 4 person tent used for two is great (walked out to my garage to check ours). We got it at a garage sale but only use it for car camping bb My current primary tent is for backpacking with my wife, months at a time. I love it but I would not recommend the Zpacks Trio for your use. From what I can tell from your post weight doesn’t really matter. Interior comfort does. But without more none of us here can tell. Finally, most online lists are trying to get you to buy so they can rake in affiliate marketing kickbacks. That results in confusing and scattershot reviews and advice. Wish you luck.

I still use a 4 man Ozark Trail tent I've had since 1998. That thing will not die - it needs another round of waterproofing, but it'll be the kid tent when they're ready to leave mom & dad in the giant cabin tent.

Go for a 4-person tent. Ozark Trail at Walmart has some decent ones. I still have one my wife and I used a few times a year for many years before the kids came along.

Came here to say this! We picked up an Ozark Trail 4-person tent for festivals and it’s honestly way roomier and sturdier than I expected for the price. Setup is super straightforward, too, my partner put it together solo with no experience whatsoever.

Yes, we have the Ozark Trail 4-person tent that I got for like $30. Been through five heavy thunderstorms now and zero leaks right out of the box. I did finally waterproof it with some Scotchguard spray after our last trip because I didn't want to push my luck, but that thing is a tank.
