    No personal experience but did look this way before buying my last tent.
    Only two down sides I see or read of are:
    More condensation in a single wall tent and likely not as warm in extreme cold. Ie snow as a two layer winter style tent (which also has condensation issues)

    Yep they definitely have a bit of condensation if you don’t set them up right.
    On a nice night you can just leave the door open and that solves the condensation issue
    There is a lot of room in them, I’m 6ft and I don’t touch the ends when lying down.
    As to warmth, if you have a good sleeping bag it doesn’t matter. Whether it’s -2 or -4 inside the tent
