  • Pop-up tents vs dome tents

    Hello everyone,

    I am looking to buy my first (3-man) tent, which I intend to use in a variety of situations: festivals/mountain/beach. I am undecided between the said two category of tents: dome and pop-up.

    I am tempted by the easy set-up of pop-up tents, but I hear that most of them are single-skinned and so they don't prevent condensation from forming on the inside of the tent, when it gets cold outside. Aside from this, I assume they are just as stable in the face of winds as dome tents are.

    Could anyone who has experienced both types of tent share which would be the pros and cons of each? Many thanks in advance for any replies!
