I quite happily carry a 3kg tent (either my Banshee XD300 or Erebus 3+) if I'm going away for multiple days, as comfort becomes more important as I get older. I'd rather ditch a few tins of beer, and carry a better, more spacious tent.
I also have a great little Banshee 100 Pro, for shorter trips , that's about 1.5kg, never seems to have been produced commercially, that was an ebay bargain!
I fancy getting something in between the two for 2 to 3 day trips, and am heading towards the Coleman Batur 2,simply because I know how good their blackout bedrooms are!
