My new tent zipper failed completely on a windy night in the Sawtooths

Was up near Stanley, Idaho last fall. Wind kicked up bad around midnight. The main door zipper just gave out, teeth popped right off the track. Had to use a bunch of binder clips from my map case to keep the flap shut. Slept in my jacket. Anyone know a good brand for a 4-season tent that won't do that?

Come on, was it really that bad? You made it through the night, right?

Made it through the night" is a low bar, man. I was up every hour checking the weather app. My power flickered off at 3 AM and I just laid there in the dark listening to the wind howl.
