You may want to check out www.walltentshop.com.  their wilderness tents aren't bad at all.  We have used a 14 x 16 for quite a few years with zero problems.

I second this.  We have used ours for 10 years.  They are very helpful if you have questions.  Buy the angle kit and make your own frame using 1 inch conduit :twocents:

I personally wouldnt deal with canvas and go with the relite made wall tent..resisit mildew and mold and is 40% lighter than canvas
:yeah: Getting mold on your canvas is a real pain in the butt, took me hours of scrubbing with a chlorine solution to get our tent mold free.  I was a new tent and I put it away very dry, just sitting in the garage folded up put mold on it, all of it.  I cleaned it up and sold it, if you have a place to hang it when not in use you will be much happier.  I think that is the key, to hang it open in a well ventilated area.  We now use a relite tent, no more mold, even if its put away wet.  If you get a quality stove the fire should keep all night.

The wall tent we sold was a Montana canvas, it was treated for mold, but I don't believe it works all the time.

I've packed in and set up eight wall tents each season for six seasons. All were Montana Canvas.  All were great with minimal or no problems.  Great quality for serious outdoor living. Five foot sidewalls are a must!  Sod cloth is nice.  When you set up, if you can dig a rectangular hole five or six inches deep right in front of the door. Drop a couple pieces of split firewood in it then pack dirt back around them...instant surface for knocking your boots on afore you go inside. Helps keep your floor clean.   All tents, regardless of material should be properly aired out before stowing.

Thank you for the feedback. Any suggestions on where/who to purchase a Davis or Bravo from?

I live in the Graham/Puyallup area.
You can order both online or by phone.

www.davistent.com
Davis will ship to your door.

www.Bravotents.com
You can pick it up in Camas or have them ship it to you.

Here's my 16x20 Davis wall tent.
