I plan to go hiking with my roommate recently. Can anyone recommend an affordable tent? The price is about $200

There are many kinds of backpacks, including daily leisure, hiking and mountaineering, technical climbing and cycling and running, which are determined by your destination.

As a guide a backpacking tent should weigh no more than 3kg per person, and less is much better. But less weight often means less room inside the tent and can mean a compromise on quality. Less weight can also mean a higher price tag. So you need to balance weight, quality and comfort in terms of space and price. Good quality backpacking solo tents range between 1kg and 2kg, while two-man tents can weigh up to 5kg. To find out how much this actually weighs head along to an outdoors store and pick up a tent pack that weighs 5kg. Then imagine carrying this yourself in a rucksack with all your other camping kit and clothing. If there are two of you camping you can split the tent in half for carrying so someone takes the poles and pegs and the other person carries the tent fabric. Remember that the longer you carry a heavy item on your back the heavier it starts to feel. less is definitely more but you generally need to pay for that premium.

Three Seasons or Four?
Three-season tents are best suited for most climates and conditions; they also tend to have double-wall construction. These tents generally have mesh paneling in the tent body to increase ventilation and keep the tent cool even with the rain fly on. More mesh leads to a lighter tent but may reduce durability. Three-season tents are generally kitted out with convenient features such as gear lofts/pockets, multiple doors, and rain fly vents. These tents can be used by car campers and backpackers alike.
