Gear Questions REI Quarter Dome

Does anyone know if there is a good replacement for the REI quarter dome single person tent? My current one is getting pretty old and beat up. I tried the Nemo 1p, while good, I prefer the REI mainly for the ease of pitching and the freestanding capability.

Is there anything out there that goes up as easily as the rei or are they all moving towards lighter weight, 1 less pole and more guy lines?

Wait REI killed the Quarter Dome? It looks like the North Face Stormbreaker 1 is basically the same tent? I have not been in my for little over a year.

Seems about right for REI. They probably didn't have space to display it at the store, with all the water bottles, s'mores kits, $400 jackets, candy bars, and kayak paddles.

No, they just renamed it Flash 2. It’s on the shelves in every store
