I actually own a MLD duomid in silnylon. I really like it for just me but a bit crowded for me, my son, and gear. I really like z packs new shelters, the duplex might really fit my needs. I'm trying to keep my shelter weight down to the one pound range. I use a bivy so I don't use a ground cloth. I like not having to kick off my shoes or worry about my dogs claws tearing a hole in a floor. I just really like pyramids and have been looking at locus, bearpaw, Ruta locura, HMG, pretty much all of them. Another thing I'm not to sure about is the white cubin, seems pretty see through and could be a problem with a full moon. I don't know maybe z packs fit the bill best.

I didn't know cubin was noisy that's good to know!

Thanks for all the well thought out replies, all opinions are very helpful.
