· Two-Season:

Generally very inexpensive typically "fair weather" or summer tents

There exists no hard and fast rules when buying a two season or summer tent, but there are some features of these tents that must be known, in order to make the investment worth, like:

A good quality tents comes with an inner that is mostly or completely fabricated of net.
They should have a good ventilation system.
Since a summer is a hoop tent, there exists a pole, which supports it at each end, this requires staking it down but saves a lot of weight.
Look for the ones that comes with a waterproof fly typically dangling as a second layer over the tent body.
Prefer a two season made of light weight and coated fabric with fiberglass poles.
While making the buying decision one should be cautious so that he does not end up purchasing a cheap nylon tent which seem to have a permanently attached waterproof rain fly and no mesh.
Do not opt for a tents, which is water repellant, and not waterproof.
When purchasing 2 season tents, look for something, which is lightweight and precisely, designed for hot and humid weather.

· Three-Season:

· Four-Season:

Various features of a quality four-season or winter tent are:

Some of the winter tents possess single-wall design that gives up the rainfly for a tent canopy made of a waterproof-breathable fabric, making them lightweight.

They have a lower profile to withstand high winds and have steep walls to shed snow.
Usually these tents have a sturdy pole configuration and the poles have a bigger diameter.
In order to lessen adverse effect of driving wind, these tents have lots of fly extended near to the ground and have many guy attachment points.
These tents are specifically fabricated for prolonged exposure to severe winter conditions, like, high winds, heavy snowfalls, cold temperatures and intense UV exposure.
A four-season tent commonly comes with four poles, skylight for extra lighting, a removable vestibule and usually mesh with zipper windows.
Their floors are thicker, more resistant to abrasion and moisture.
4 season tents are also being offered in more sizes, including one-person, personal shelter sizes, for adventurers who prefer to sleep alone.
They come with a circular opening in the side of the tent that allows one to enter and exit without opening the entire front of the tent to the surroundings.
These tents are always all-nylon, with no upper body netting.
