It depends what you want to do doesn't it? Stating the obvious but like everything "strong" and "lightweight" are at odds. If you need a tent that won't collapse in a Scottish blizzard then it ain't gonna be lightweight and cheap. If you're only camping in the park near your car or house or something then you can risk a £50 Chinese tent that's 1.5 kg.
