Tent recommendations please.

In my opinion, there's one tent that meets all of your criteria.  That would be the 10x10' range tent offered by David Ellis at cowboycamp.net.  

I have the 10x10 with awning, screen door, zippered window with screen, and 4" stove hole.  

I can set it up nice and tight in less than 5minutes and it will handle wind better than any other tent in existence...that's scientifically proven.  It's why they use pyramid tents on arctic expeditions.  The walls tie out to the poles and I'm able to fit two small cots along with the stove in there.  

I'm thinking about getting a 8x8 in the 7.5oz canvas slimmed down with out the window and stove jack for solo trips.

Bjorn and I think alike.  Last summer I bought a bell tent just like the SoulPad, different manufacturer.  A breeze to set up and should handle all sorts of weather without issue.  It will be with me during elk season if I'm not packing in.

If I'm packing in, I'll be carrying either my GoLite ShangriLa3 or a different tarp.

Hope this helps.

Thank you all so much. Lots of great options. Doing my research on several of these tents. Once again, thanks for all your recommendations.

I have a Camo Hunter Tipi Tent.  It is an excellent set up like the Kifaru.  I have a couple of seasons using it.  First class and very "traditional".  Just need to work out the details on an effective stove configuration.  I certainly recommend it.

I have a Cabela's Outback Lodge 12 man and really like it. I've weathered several storms and it never budged or leaked. The short straight sides make it cot friendly. The center pole is 9' 6" which gives lots of headroom. I've had it several years now and have not found a down side, I would buy another one.

I have the same tent and it has survived wind, rain, and snow storms with no problems at all.

I also just picked up Cabelas Outback Lodge based on all of the reviews. 12'X12'. Watch for sales and save $$.

I've had an Outback Lodge for years but about froze to death several times in bad weather. Sure wish there was some way to put a wood stove in it. Really want something for winter snowmobile camping.Some good suggestions above.
