Top rated tents below $100
Two of the tents have a very good overall score "much better than the average for all tents" Two of them easily qualify as top rated, they both have lots of reviews, more than 800 in total. Both are the same model and made by Coleman.
The Sundome 3 is small, real small, forget about standing room this is kneeling room only. Coleman's Sundome 4 offers quite a lot more space and probably deserves consideration for very small families or couples wanting to try camping for the first time without breaking the bank. The 4 person tent is just $38.47 info_outline extra,with 28% more space and an extra 7 inches of headroom, makes it very easy to choose the larger one. The Sundome 4 pictured above is currently just $100.00 info_outline
The much larger Sundome 6 which is $129.99 info_outline is worth taking a look at considering it is a lot larger and only a few extra dollars.
Also worth taking a look at is the Meramac 4 "pictured above" It is quite a lot bigger and costs only $149.99 info_outline at the moment.

Largest tents below $100
One tents have 6 feet of standing room or more, of these have more than 100 square feet of living space. Largest of them all is the Branch Canyon Dome Tent with 100 square feet along with 6 ft. 00 inches of headroom made by Texsport.
The 8 person Red Canyon, pictured below is huge and represents great value, even when it is priced at a little more than $100
Tents $75.00 and under
Six of the twenty-three tents can be purchased for less than $75 info_outline all offer enough space only for the smallest of families.
Coleman makes four of them. Even though the Sundome 3 is one of the cheapest tents available today "with a good overall score" at $61.53 info_outline It is hard to choose it when the larger Sundome models cost only a little extra for considerably more space.
The Twin Peaks Sport Dome has already been mentioned above in the best value section. On sale at $69.99 info_outline It is hard to find anything wrong with this tent, if you are in the market for a smaller tent for whatever reason.
Last of the six is the Ridgeline made by Wenzel pictured below. It is only $79.95 info_outline It's overall score is well above average, lots of the 200+ reviews get 5 stars. Yes it is a small tent, it does though offer a lot of value just like the other five.
Quite often when one thinks of cheap, the next thought is usually "poor quality" None of the tents above do anything but excel in all areas "except size" Only the Sundome 3 does not make sense, any of the others would make great choices.
