Take a look at Tentipi's Nordic tipi's. Tentipi is a legendary Swedish brand designed for Arctic conditions, intended to be used as a hot tent from the beginning.
I made the mistake of taking a chance and can say stay clear of Luxe. I put in a dispute with the CC company and they have 33-BBB complaints this year for the same issue. If they do respond they are assholes.Search Luxe tents Customer Service on this forum.
My wife calls me cheap, but really I like to think of myself as thrifty. Anyway, based on the price I couldn't help myself and bought this and the titanium stove to go with it, they shipped next day and it arrived Friday. Initial setup was easy and quick. Quality appears to be just fine and even has pre-sealed seams which isn't a huge deal but nice. It even came with the right number of stakes and guy out lines which I honestly didn't expect at the price point. I will say the pole it ships with is heavy (aluminum) but I plan on using hiking poles for set up as I really only use those for the hike in/out. The stove arrived missing a part (damper was not in the package). I emailed them and got a response same day and they are shipping the missing part to me.Does anyone have any experience with the Peregrine Boreal HT(hot tent)? At the price it looks interesting!

Awesome! So far it sounds worth it to buy from the company. I would love to hear about your experience with it this season.My wife calls me cheap, but really I like to think of myself as thrifty.

All that said it has NOT been put to the test yet but my initial impression of the product and company is good. I bought this to use for CO rifle for myself and my two teenage boys because my oldest is STILL complaining about how cold he was last year. I figure we can go to be warm, if he's cold overnight he can light the stove, and we can thaw our boots and heat water in the morning before heading out. With the tent setup with the stove inside it will be tight but doable for us, would really be awesome for 2 and the stove. Our packs are just going to live outside so we have enough space inside for the 3 of us.
Once I actually get a few nights in it I'll post a better review instead of just first impressions. Feel free to DM me if you have any burning questions.

Good to know! I’ve been looking into buying a Cimarron or a Kifaru Sawtooth.. leaning Cimarron and this supports that!Last year in a freak windstorm my redcliff was ripped off our heads in pitch black... not the most enjoyable way to wake up. Anyway, an entire corner had ripped off causing it to become a parachute. But Seek entirely covered repairs for the tent with zero charge to me. So, just so you know, they are pretty easy to work with on warranty/repair. I expected to be paying for it, and they didn't take a dime from me

Check out the Argali 4p tipi too. Sil poly instead of sil nylon, so no wet sag in the material.Good to know! I’ve been looking into buying a Cimarron or a Kifaru Sawtooth.. leaning Cimarron and this supports that!
Is wet sag a common issue for the Cimarron and Sawtooth?Check out the Argali 4p tipi too. Sil poly instead of sil nylon, so no wet sag in the material.
Yeah, if you're getting enough moisture to wet out the material it sags quite a bit. Pretty annoying.Is wet sag a common issue for the Cimarron and Sawtooth?
