any vangos with alloy poles. used to sell tones of them, they are really well built..
fiberglass poles are dead, also we had a problem with vango qc in the shop the poles would snap and they would refuse to replace them under warranty! mainly the gothic arch style ones in
key things you want -
bathtub groundsheet
double skin tent
hydrostatic head minimum 3000 (I personaly say min 5000 for uk?
alloy poles
number of people +1 size and unless you like the coffin feel.
depending on how much room you want,
tunnel tents offer the best blend of room and storage, vango omega 200 is good for this also bomb proof. banshee is smaller without the storage. both excellent. other alternatives are hillergerg (mega money) and oex.
berghaus tents are re branded eurohike and not worth the mo ey in my opinion. if
I'd say this is the go to for most people
dome tents offer the best strength but not a ton of room. better for hard mountaineering high winds ect. they do offer a bigger sleeping area but sacrifice storage. terra nova quasar always copied never matched.
If you need any more advice drop me a pm if you like. used to sell them and also use them alot for mountaineering
