Question

Ok Guys I need a nice tent. It needs to be able to hold 2 people + gear. I need a tent that will be able to be used heavily and often. It has to be at least 3-season (perfer 4 if possible). I will be backpacking with this tent and would prefer for it to weigh less than 5 lbs (roughly 2.28kg). I am looking to spend no more than 300 USD for it. Is this feasable? Tent shopping is difficult and I am looking for good insight from you guys that have a good one already? Any brands or materials that I should stay away from/prefer? I have been looking for weeks! Help!!
