My suggestion is not a site to purchase from (because it's in the UK), but it's a good site to help with working out what you want to get.
- Go to
https://www.ultralightoutdoorgear.co.uk/- Select Equipment->All Tents (don't select "One person tents")
- Select "Sort by weight Lightest to Heaviest"
They actually weigh each tent, so the weights they quote often differ from the manufacturer's figures. Many of the items have been used by the staff, in which case there are sometimes helpful comments under the "Our Verdict" tab.
You can sort any of their equipment categories by weight, which is fabulous for gram counters. If you're not so bothered, you can sort the lists from Heaviest to Lightest and see the more robust hiking gear.
