Not too certain which one to Get. From L-R, Durston X-Mid 1, Outdoor Vitals Cirq, SMD Lunar Solo

The size and weight of the X-Mid 2 is so small you might as well get the 2-person. The 1p feel more claustrophobic than most 1p tents, and the 2p has more space compared to other 2p tents. Source: I own the 1 and upgrade to the 2.

Heard Lunar got condensation issues but I guess it could depend on the regional climate.

I second getting a 2 person tent, but I advise you buy a $60 tent from Amazon. All tents will break eventually through use no matter how much you spend on them. More expensive tents offer nothing meaningful in terms of features other than lighter weight potentially. Unless you really need the weight savings just buy a cheap tent.

The Lunar Solo is a single walled shelter. If you hike anywhere with moderate or higher humidity (basically anything east of the continental divide), you’re going to have condensation issues. I’m pretty sure the Corq is as well.

Both the Lunar Solo and the Cirq are single pole shelters with the same ubiquitous design. Both f you’re taller than 6’, you’ll be a little cramped.

The X-mid is more spacious (5” wider) and has steeper walls, so there’s more usable interior space. The vestibules are larger as well. And it’s a double-walled shelter.

It’s more spacious than comprable non-freestanding tents. The floor space is larger than most 1p tents, and the offset two pole design giver more usable floor and more headspace than anything using a single pole or two poles inline.
