We already have a Summer Moon 3 tent. It has replaced our Serius 3 tent. Yes, it only has one door but that has not been a problem. Its roomy enough that we can get around each other with no difficulty even with a couple of dogs. What is interesting is the vestibule design. Instead of having 2 same sized vestibules, there is one small one and one which is considerably more generous. Its easy to sit inside the tent with your feet outside and remove wet boots and rain gear when its pouring. Vestibule is probably large enough to boil water in for a hot beverage or dinner if its super nasty and you are desperate for something hot. Yes, its not the lightest but it appears to be the lightest around for the price range. Our Serius 2 and Serius 3 tents from Sierra Designs have held up for over 15 years and are used almost every weekend summer or winter. They get popped into panniers when we are biking and kayak hatches as frequently as a backpack. I plan on getting a Summer Moon 2 to replace my Serius 2 for when I go out solo. I like all my gear in my tent and arranged so I can reach whatever I need even in the dark without a light. A 2 person tent is perfect for that even enough room to bring a pooch too. I have done the lightweight single person tent for almost 2 years now and frankly a few extra ounces for my comfort is well worth it. Do have some mixed feelings about the pouch instead of a more conventional stuff sack. Reserving judgement on that until I have had to pack it up wet a couple of times. May go back to a regular compression sack instead.
