Sup /out/ I'm buying my first 2 person tent.

It should be really fast to set up and to take down. Light, small, waterproof (the usual stuff)

I really don't wanna buy blindly something from amazone. I hope you guys can help me out.

are you actually going to use it for two persons?
in my experience a two person tent is actually very uncomfortable for more than one person, might wanna look into 3 person tents

I can tell you the LL Bean Microlight FS2 is breddy gud. It's a two-person tent but I just use it for myself. Packs down pretty small and weighs somewhere between four and five pounds. Enough room to sit up, two vestibules for your backpack/boots/whatever, and setup takes like five minutes since it's just a skeleton to which the actual tent attaches with a series of hooks.

Got mine for ~$200 with the footprint thanks to a kind anon sharing a 10% off coupon to LL Bean's website.

I've been really happy with my Mountain Hardwear Drifter 2.

not OP but thanks for bringing that one up. Been checking out the ones at rei and amazon. If I can get a deal on one, that might be a winner for me.

I have a kelty grand mesa 2, I have used it for car trips as well as canoe and kayak trips, but no backpacking.

I have been really happy with the quality, kept us dry when it rained 3 in. in 12 hours, sets up quickly. I have enough space in it, but my girlfriend and I are both pretty small.

Okay, two person isn't specific enough. Is it for one person car camping? A guy and a girl? Two guys? The possibility of all of the above? What will you be most likely to do out of those possibilities. And lastly what type of climate.
