Mainly see talk about Nemo, Eureka and CCS bugnets, I'll put in a plug for one I just tried out this trip from Onewind. It's relatively cheap, about $65, and it comfortably fit five campers, could probably squeeze in six without too much trouble.

I set it up both independently and with my existing CCS tarp and it worked great in both configurations. Very solid option I think. Not too bulky and fairly light.

Size of it packed up?

We scored an old double box net from Sea to summit. Two things I don't like about it- its net all the way to the bottom and catches all sorts of little twigs and debris when packing up. I could add a nylon skirt. Second, no door! which really isn't a deal breaker.. but would be nice to have a spot in and out. Its fits 4 guys leaning into the corners decently well. Light weight too.

I'm going to check this one out

Looks like one of Ole's buddies is in the witness protection program. :)

Here it is all packed up. That's including a ridgeline I added to it.

This has a non-netting skirt on the bottom, so the netting doesn't touch the ground. Also has two doors.

I prefer one with a tarp top. This one from Amazon is $90. A member here verified it weighs under 3 pounds. If I didn't already have my Eureka I'd try it.

This is the one I bought for our August trip- tarp top, big enough for 4 plus dog, under 3 pounds, cheap. We’ve never even considered taking one to the bw, but with the horrendous bugs this year, we took it. As it turns out it was so windy we never took it out of the bag.
