3f ultralight on aliexpress have a good rep if you are after a good value sil tent.

Why do you think the 1 at intent outdoors will condensate really bad vs the aliexpress 1 as they look the same to me with where the air events are or is sil nylon more breathable but the aliexpress one weights 1.5kg vs 670gms

Its not the intents outdoors tent specifically it is that design. There isnt sufficient airflow with the built in inner as it seals against the tent wall. There are several manufacturers with similar designs and they all suffer from the same problem. Single skin tents need airflow. The one with the clip in inner will be fine as it is mesh all round and wont seal.

This https://www.sixmoondesigns.com/colle...ucts/deschutes is what I use with a clip in inner. Is about 400g with stakes. I have the inner but usually just use my borah gear bivy. Heaps of space, is a good wee shelter

+1 for clip in inner, or one that the inner can stay attached so it all goes up in one hit (macpac multi-pitch). Pitching inner first is not good in a downpour.
