I am returning to camping after many years and find the choice of tents bewildering and a lot has changed
Im looking tor a tent i can stand up in
I must be able to erect it myself as I am camping alone
Must have a fully sewn in ground sheet
Also enough space in front of bedroom area to sit in a chair and a small table

I have used this site to see whats what and see a lot things have changed so looking at ,,,, Aztec Outwell Quechua Sunncamp hiGear Khyam Coleman Easy Camp Vango
I know its a huge choice and my budget is low and im going woopy looking so any help would be helpful

There are some suggestions in this thread.

I';d have thought the Vango Kalu would suit.

thanks but the kalu seems to be strangely unavailable wherever I look and it appears to tick all the right boxes for me

You don't say what sort of camping or materials you prefer? Assuming you are not backpacking from your criteria😁.....if you like polycotton or canvas tent, have you considered a bell tent?
It would fit with your given criteria..... and I love 'em ☺
