brother get a free standing tent, and especially not a lanshan-esque tent that you need to seam seal. That shit sucks to seam seal ur first time. Get a I dunno like REI Trailmade 1 or something??? depending the weather get a sleeping pad/bag that’ll be good for the temp ranges. Or go to a used store.
https://www.rei.com/product/243610/rei-co-op-trailmade-1-tent-with-footprint You can try this one. It looks like it replaced the Passage” series of tents which is unfortunate, those were fantastic. I use the Passage 2 for my backpacking. However, REI makes great stuff and if all you need is a one person, this should do and hold up well. Relatively light too.
The Amazon tent is going to be worse than the Agnes tent. I recommend the REI halk dome 2 or REI trail made 1
Rei trailmade tent is the perfect size for me. Love that tent gor solo bike touring
I think it’s gonna be hard to beat REI trail made one. I started with an old LL bean and end up with a tarptent.com. But I would buy a brand name tent within your price that’s as light as you can buy.
