Stormbreak 1

The storm breaks are good tents, just heavy. Good for short backpacking trips, long ones too if you dont mind the weight.

I'm also own a NF stormbreak 1 and a stormbreak 2. I love my stormbreak 1, it is small (cozy and easy to find a place to pitch) and very sturdy. The downsides are that it's small and very sturdy (aka heavy), my head touches the top when I sit straight up in the tent and it weighs roughly 3.3 lbs which is not that much less than a lot of budget 2 person tents. I would never even consider taking the stormbreak 2 backpacking.

I love both my Stormbreak 1 and Stormbreak 2 but even the Stormbreak 2 I'd consider very heavy for backpacking, it would be great for car camping though.

Sleeping pad: I tried a tensor out and it felt like a pool toy compared to my thermorest. I recommend the neo air wholeheartedly. i insist you should at least try it. Ive had 8 years or so and never needed a patch. The inflatable thermorest pillow is also nice with a sweatshirt on top. Tent: This tent does look to be on the big and heavy side, which might be what you want. But if not.. and i recommend going as small as possible- I love my [north face stormbreaker 1 tent](https://www.thenorthface.com/en-us/p/bags-and-gear/camp-shop-829877/stormbreak-1-tent-NF0A8BDK?color=3QM&size=OS). It is truly small, but just big enough for me while still being free standing and double walled which is best for me since I dont use trekking poles yet. Its lighter and cheaper than your pick. Upgrading the stakes to lighter ones brings the listed weight down noticeably but I havent measured to quantify that. With the money saved there you could put more into your sleeping bag. I didnt research your choice, but I think anything mummy down bag in the that temp range will serve you well. $200-300 should be enough to get you a very good bag. I have a quilt that is 20 degree and I always pack an emergency blanket with me and I use it almost every time because I get chilly. It adds a lot of warmth to any bag without much weight or packing. Its also just a good thing to have survival wise. You could also try a sleeping bag liner. I got one as a gift but havent tried it yet but I love the idea of it keeping me warmer and my equipment cleaner.

I got one on sale. Super easy to set up and it’s huge! It’s nice to be able to stand up in your tent. I mostly backpack camp and use the NF storm break 1 person tent so when I use this I feel like I’m in a mansion.

I have the NF stormbreak 1p and 3p. Both are very good quality but they are heavy as others suggested. However, the 1p one is good for overnight hiking trips, if you don't mind the weight (or not planning a long hike). I did numerous trips with the 1p one, before I got the Durston x mid 1. The NF 1p one is quite small, but still worked for me. Though I prefer the x mid 1 because it is much lighter (uses trekking poles) and larger (space for the backpack, shoes, cooking setup etc.). My recommendation would be to consider getting a lighter and larger tent, even though the 1p NF is perfectly capable.
