We've owned a Paha Que Perry Mesa tent for 2 years. I know it's expensive, but it's worth it if you camp in all kinds of weather. We camp from April to October in Northeast Ohio and Northwest Pennsylvania, so the tent has stood up to violent thunderstorms, downpours of 3 inches of rain in an hour and we were safe and dry inside.
We love the screen room. The two of us sit comfortably inside. And a third or fourth person would be cozy, but not uncomfortable. On short trips we don't even take our separate screen tent with us. It would be easy to set up a small table to eat on. Our "weekend" site provides electricity and we will cook in the screen room in inclement weather, using an electric grill. A small gas stove would also work.
The one thing a buyer should be aware of is that this tent takes two people and some strength to set up. My wife and I can set it up in about 10 minutes. The set up is very straightforward and simple, but the size of the tent requires two people to get the poles set. Attaching the tent to the bottom of the poles requires some arm strength to pull the grommet over the end of the pole. I'm reasonably in-shape for a sedentary worker at sixty, and can do it fine, but if someone is challenged physically, it would be a tough tent to set up, I think.
