The Box Kite (aka half dome) is a good bomber basic tent - I wonder at times if they get them made for the brand by Kelty as they are similar quality. (This is standard practice with REI, their poles are actually Komperdell for example).

And it's also possible to get Big Agnes or any other brand sold at REI at their gear sales for a song. Repaired tents often work as well as brand new.
