Compact, Quick, Easy setup 2 man tents...

FWIW, I bought an MSR Elixir 3 last year.

 

How do you find it in the rain? My local stockist doesn't have one, only the Hubba Hubba (which I'm tempted by for the name alone! ) and looking online the flysheet seems a bit on the light side? But I guess it's more of a technical fabric?

Hi, l can recommend Kham tents though not cheep, you might get lucky and find a second hand one on fleebay. One thing l've found out the hard way is that you get what you pay for. There's nothing worse than a freezing cold wet tent. Make sure you have space in the tent for all your gear and get a decent sleeping bag.

Bought it for sunny weather use, showers have been no problem.

Seeing as MSR primarily make stuff for the mountaineering market, I'm going to hazard a guess it'll perform in downpours too.

This time of the year people are off loading + plenty of end of season sales keep an eye out for them

Just had a quick look on flee bay and this caught my eye, well worth a punt.
