Not a fan of the no full coverage rain fly or this much mesh on the 4 walls. Probably nice for hot weather camping though. Too big for back packing and I'll stick with my Coleman tents with their fully waterproof floors.

This is a single wall tent. There is no mesh on the walls, and what looks like a rainfly is part of the tent body. This tent doesn't have a separate rainfly.

no rainfly is a big pass for me since I'm often in our Redwood Empire where we get lots of rain and snow at elevation. Bonus with a rainfly is the extra warmth. I did some Nov camping last year at Lake Tahoe and it was cold and rainy, but my Marmot Limestone kept me warm. Note that any tear to a single wall tent happens and one is screwed.

Right, which is why double-walled tents exist.
Big Agnes Big House is the double-walled full rainfly version of this.
If you know you need a double-walled tent why are you even looking and commenting on this?
educate people. That's too hard for you to understand

Your first comment incorrectly stated there are mesh on walls on this product; when (as the other commentor pointed out) there is no mesh on the walls on this model.
Your second comment doesn't talk about the product in the deal, instead focusing on your Marmot Limestone in an inclement weather trip. Which the Dog House is not designed for.
You're misinforming and then comping this product to another category that are outside of the design spec of this product; that's apparently too hard for you to understand.

the point is that new campers are not aware of the differences and shortcommings of a tent with no rain fly.

I agree with that sentiment, but new campers aren't likely do be doing winter/inclement weather camping and don't need a $400+ tent with a top of the line bill of materials for their first purchase.
This is still an OK deal for fair-weather car camping, having aluminum poles vs. fiberglass is a nice touch at this price and having enough vertical space for kids to stand up/adults to hunch over in can be a plus to some.
There have been better deals recently if vertical space isn't a priority and just want the best design/materials.
I think at the same price the Coleman Skydome 4 w/dark room might offer more value. I like dark room a lot, and more rain protection, but it does step down to fiberglass poles and has slightly less vertical space.
