It is a great value, and ticks your boxes. The cost is a slightly higher weight.

anyway, i gathered your reason before. many apologies. the coleman sounds like a solid option. and, again, appreciation because coleman isn't generally considered "quality". otoh, they make great stoves, etc. so, probably they could make a good tent, too
