We usually returned from camping in this tent. First time out of a box we consider we had a thing set up in underneath dual minutes. It could simply be finished in 60 seconds or reduction subsequent time. It reminds me of environment up a graco container as well as play. we LOVED a approach it set up! we was unequivocally astounded which it comes down usually as easy. Fitting it behind in a strange bag took a integrate minutes, though not any some-more than alternative tents we’ve had.
However, we was astounded by a couple of things left off. There have been usually dual tiny pockets inside a tent upon a side walls. we approaching to find a slot in a roof tiles tiles too. So we had to yield over any alternative if we longed for automobile keys early in a morning, etc. There were usually dual tiny roof tiles tiles vents. If we stay in summer we consider this tent would get hot. In my perspective a greatest inapplicable designation was there is no approach to tie a windows open. THe have been done so we can kind of tuck them in themselves, though which didn’t work even in a light breeze. We attempted sleeping with a windows open though a unzipped windows were waving right during face turn (on air mattresses). We attempted sleeping with them half open, though a consistent waving could expostulate we nuts. So we slept with a entirely closed. This was excellent since it was cool, though we would not suggest a tent for summer since of that. However, if we hatred a set up as well as rip down, this tent is amazing.
We had a single black as well as dual identical tiwn air mattresses. This tent was a parsimonious fist for us, though we were means to fit. we consider it is a tiny not as big than a final 6 chairman tent. We have been starting to lapse it for a 8 chairman so we won’t be so squished subsequent time. Also, a 8 chairman appears to have many longer windows. we consider which they will be prolonged enought to lay upon a building as well as afterwards set a duffle or something upon tip of a window flap. THat should keep a windows from waving in a face all night. Also, a bigger windows would assistance to keep a tent cooler for summer camping.
We had usually a really light sleet a single sunrise as well as stayed dry. we have no thought how it would do in heavier rain.

Who likes difficult as great as confusing?
When we go camping, a “setting up & receiving down” of my tent is a partial that sucks. Really sucks.
This tent is amazing. The day it showed up, we took it out of a box as great as set it up (just me – no a single helping) in underneath a notation (not counting a stakes)!!
You usually reveal it, magnify a legs, as great as travel in. How overwhelming is that?
Don’t hold me? Check Youtube. Type in “Instant Tent”, demeanour for a the single with a lady in a splendid yellow KOA shirt. That’s a video that sole me upon this tent.

It has LOTS of ventilation. a 2 sides have a vast window, a behind has a HUGE window. The front has a window in a door, as great as a window subsequent to a door. Did we discuss there have been dual roof tiles tiles tiles vents? Yup. The roof tiles tiles tiles vents have zippers upon them, as great as a firm “prop” thing. There’s velcro upon a tip flap, upon a tip of a prop, as great as upon a bottom of a column (the bottom of a column is sewn to a tent as well). You can open a roof tiles tiles tiles vents from a inside by unzipping a shade as great as raising a prop. To tie it we simply reduce a prop, as great as velcro a tip tag to a bottom of a prop.
we know, that’s alot of info for something as pardonable as a vent. BUT, we suspicion it was a really great feature, as great as haven’t seen it referred to in any reviews or videos.

The windows. HUGE! we meant outrageous in a HUGE way! You can get copiousness of air flow. When we open a windows, it’s similar to carrying a total tip half of your tent as ventilation.
A note about a windows – when we open them, a tag hangs inside your tent. I’ve examination reviews where people complained about this. Well speculation what. If we leave any zipper zipped up about 4 inches, rsther than than entirely open, we emanate a slot of sorts, in between a filigree as great as a fabric tools of a windows. Just things a tag in to this small pocket, as great as call it good.

NO RAINFLY. we sprayed a tent with a grassed area hose. we insane it “rain” upon tip of a tent, as great as it additionally “rained” laterally all a approach around. No leaks. we was endangered about a tip vents, though no H2O got in.

When it’s time to take down your tent, overlay it up as instructed, afterwards hurl it, upon a ground, usually similar to a sleeping bag. Just keep rolling it until we get a air squeezed out. Not usually was it easy to get this tent behind in it’s storage bag, we was means to put THAT behind in a box that it came in!
And a lift bag. Even a bag is great planned! It has a full length zipper (think of your customary gym duffel bag, usually longer). It’s bigger than it needs to be, so it’s easy to get a tent behind in. And, if we have a tough time removing a air out of it, as great as CAN’T zip it, there have been straps with buckles, so we can tag a top, afterwards string down a buckles to tie a bag sufficient to zip it up.

we chose this tent for 3 reasons: 1) it sets up easily. 2) it’s high (I’m 6 feet tall). 3) it doesn’t price an arm & a leg.
This is my third – or may be fourth – Coleman tent. I’ve never had problems with them leaking, never had a zipper fail, never had damaged poles.

we gave it 4 stars instead of 5 for dual reasons. If not for these dual (albeit rsther than insignificant) small details, we would give it 5 stars as great as afterwards some.
FIRST: 2 storage pockets. It’s a 6 male tent (in theory). Why usually dual measly pockets? There is a offshoot sewn in to a peak, to cling to a lantern, that is nice.
SECOND: a doorway is block during a bottom, formulating a “corner”. Since zippers do not similar to corners, they used dual zippers. One zipper goes opposite a bottom, a alternative zipper goes opposite a tip & down a side. Well, there’s a gap. It’s a little gap, though how many room do spiders, ants or ticks need? Where we camp, there have been copiousness of ticks & unwholesome spiders. My latest tent has a spider-sized doggy-door.

All-in-all, we have to give Coleman a thumbs up upon this tent. In fact, I’ve already talked dual people in to shopping this indication tent, as great as I’ve usually had it for 3 days.
And to whomever written a setup assembly, a high-five, hug, as great as cooking

After reception a tent by UPS, my mother as well as we set it up in a family room, usually for use as well as to see how easy it unequivocally was. First time out of a box it took us about a notation as well as a half to set up. That, of march did not embody stakes as well as man lines. It took us about 5 mins to take it down, essentially since we didn’t get a air out upon a initial try as well as had to open it behind up as well as do it again. But we eventually got it behind in a case.

First time out in a field, it was my thirteen yo grandson as well as we environment it up. It took a integrate of mins to get it up (in a fifteen mph breeze with gusts to may be 20). Then we had to onslaught with a stakes. This was not a error of a tent – a belligerent was tough as a stone due to miss of rain! After staking was finished as well as a man lines were set, a tent was utterly fast even in a wind.

The usually reason we gave it 4 stars rsther than than 5 is since a breeze as well as a ensuing rustling/flapping sound kept me watchful a lot of a night. Once again many of a censure for which was a continue as well as not a tent. we additionally hold there is probably no such thing as a undiluted product. This tent isn’t distant from which though.

Temps were in a tall 70s/high steam as well as a tent was gentle with enough ventilation. No sleet during a night.

It took my grandson as well as we about 2 mins to take it down (after pulling a stakes!). No problems this time with removing a tent in to a box since we got a air out a initial time.

All in all, I’d contend this is a really great tent with no vital problems.

I’ve camped for many years, initial as a Girl Scout as well as afterwards as an adult. My father had never camped, let alone in a tent. we took him out in this tent to a National Forest campground in a Shenendoah mountains, as well as it rained plain for a week. This tent saved a vacation. The core room served as a dining as well as rec center, upon condition that plenty space for a tiny stay list where we ate as well as played cards. The screened porch was a undiluted vestibule, as well as upon balmy days it’s a good place to relax, nap, examination as well as shun from a bugs. The sleeping room is undiluted for dual adults as well as a queen-sized air bed. The core room will absolutely nap an complete family, or offer as a “living room”, rigging room, work room, etc. It has a tall roof with a double back for unresolved a light. The over-cover as well as Coleman building a whole have this a driest tent I’ve ever experienced. After a week of plain rain, not a single seep, yowl or drip.

I paid for this tent to operate during a week-long star-party, so “practical” as great as “carry-in” weren’t objectives. What WERE objectives were which it had to be large sufficient for all my gear, had to be comparatively arguable as great as great equipped, as great as it had to be large sufficient which we could pierce around in it with my 6’2″ figure but building a hunch.

Naturally when shopping camping rigging we ran to Coleman. It’s transparent which a code has changed distant divided from a often American-made products to abroad (China) manufacturing, so which was a tiny disappointing. However it substantially worked in my preference given we could get some-more product for reduction $$.

Okay, so about a tent…

First off, this is NOT a light tent. If you’re essentially starting to travel this someplace, cruise again. The specs contend it weighs 36 pounds, as great as you’d improved hold it. It additionally comes in a standard Coleman tent bag (squarish immature zipper bag) as great as a bag is about 4-feet long. Definitely something to cruise if you’re formulation upon receiving this tent somewhere upon foot.

The tent comes in a card box, which is put inside a Coleman immature bag, as great as afterwards which is put inside a box for shipping. My tent arrived but a blemish upon anything…except my wallet for a shipping charges.

Assembly, we have to say, for a tent this size, is cake. Now similar to we pronounced above, I’m 6-foot-2, as great as we was means to put this tent together piece for a single person but any difficulty during all. In fact, with a disproportion of a sleet fly, a tiny person with a step-ladder could solo-assemble this tent. (Take a impulse as great as penchant which picture for a second…)

When we open a tangible tent bag, a tent is folded as great as rolled up around all a alternative tools as great as scored equally with dual strips of nylon fabric. I’d suggest ditching these as great as removing a tiny genuine straps or rope. The tent poles, stakes, as great as supplemental poles (for doorway as great as awnings) came in good, apart bags with tie wraps. The sleet fly, removable room divider, as great as “door mat” were folded as great as rolled up as well.

The tent poles appear really durable, great embellished as great as marked, as great as where a elastic-cord is unprotected in a joints, it’s essentially a tiny integrate of chain, so no worries about in a future slicing by a connective tissue with use. There’s 4 U-shaped hang structures for a tent. The sides of a U’s have been true as great as go roughly a full height, as great as a tip sections have been curved. The winding sections feed in to well-marked as great as reinforced loop-sleeves along a top, afterwards we bond a side poles. Once we have all a hang sections in place, we usually lift any one, a single during a time, as great as hang a bottom ends in to a friction-cleat during a bottom corner of a tent. As a tent raises, we have to watch which a seams of a tent line up with a poles, as great as we have to change things around a tiny until all a poles fit in place. The side poles essentially have push-pin adjustments so we can change a tallness an in. or two. The directions contend to lift a tent with all a poles in a lowest setting, afterwards lift any to a tip environment to fill out a shape. we longed for which step as great as had all a poles in a full-height position, as great as didn’t run in to any problems. The tent DOES fit a support with usually a integrate of inches wiggle-room, so it can appear a tiny parsimonious until we get it all adjusted.

From roll-out to a indicate where all 4 hang sets were lifted took me about 10-minutes…and that’s with checking all over twice.

Once we have a poles up we can re-adjust a figure of a tent to get all widespread out good. There’s clips which bond a sides of a tent to a poles, as great as we can go forward as great as fill in all a interest points. There’s a interest indicate during any hang point, as great as during a door, screened outward as great as inside, as great as a integrate alternative places. Trust me, if we cruise there should be a interest somewhere, there’s already a reinforced double behind waiting.

Once we get a tent partial up, a rain-fly goes on. we will contend which a rain-fly fits TIGHT to a tent, so a tiny calm is needed. Make certain a “Coleman” trademark is upon a screened-side of a tent as great as not a back. The fly is sewn in a approach which it fits a figure of a tent, as great as there’s usually sufficient disproportion which it won’t fit otherwise. Once we chuck a fly over a tent, any joining indicate has an effervescent connective tissue continuous to a great steel offshoot which fits in to a tiny hole in any tent pole. we suggest starting during a core (the core dual hang sections) as great as we do a ends last. There’s Velcro straps which serve bond a fly to a poles…attach those as we go to keep a fly from relocating around as we widen it. The fly additionally has trustworthy tie-lines with toggles which we can widespread out as great as interest down. They looked flattering sturdy.

The total tip of this tent is screened (except where poles go over as great as a reinforced) so a fly is indispensable unless you’re chancing a dry night.

Once we get the…

Rita R. Wong “Amazon Veteran” (Sacramento, California) –

  

This tent is wonderful, intensely atmospheric as well as has good latest advancements in tent technology. we desired how open a tent felt. Bravo to Coleman for inventing a hinged tent door…it creates a tent unequivocally feel similar to a tiny cabin with a REAL door. After we perceived a tent we asked a hubby if we should try to set it up indoors prior to to a subsequent camping trip. He responded with a negative, which we could usually figure it out there given a instructions have been sewn in to a tent duffel bag.

After nearing to a stay site we struggled to get a tent up. Tempers flared as well as we had to call in a single fill-in chairman to assistance us. The instructions sewn in to a bag have been not unequivocally easy to read, as well as a diagrams have been flattering many useless. We had to “figure it out” as my father had said. Something to know when you’re starting to set this tent up for a initial time is which it unequivocally does make a difference which of a thicker, steel poles go where. Some have been usually somewhat shorter than others. Basically a somewhat longer await poles need to go in a center dual positions of a tent, as well as a others upon a outdoor positions. Once we figured it out which initial time, we know it will be a square of baked sweat bread a subsequent time, so again, usually try to set it up once during home prior to attack a wilderness.

Another a a single preferred underline is a shade room. This was unequivocally accessible for gripping all of a rigging orderly as well as NEARBY. we didn’t cruise we would caring a single approach or another, though we was astounded how many we desired carrying all during arms strech in which shade room.

My usually censure is which a vast doorway heading from a shade room to a rest of a tent doesn’t zip along a bottom. There is a shade doorway which utterly zips closed, though a plain tent element which went over a shade doorway usually zips up as well as down to yield privacy. So, we had full insurance from a bugs, though no insurance from a drafts which climb by a bottom of a flap. If you’ll be camping in impassioned cold we should really cruise this negative.
