Coleman Sundome Camping Tent with Rainfly, 2/3/4/6 Person Tent Sets Up in 10 Mins, Weatherproof Shelter for Camping, Festivals, Backyard, Sleepovers, & More

I read as many reviews as possible from different sites before ordering this tent. I camp at least 3 or 4 times a year and the worst part of it is setting up and breaking down the tent. I don't need to go into detail about how easy this tent is to set up. The videos speak for themselves. I will say that if you follow the instructions and watch the videos that you will have an easy time. Don't get in too much of a hurry though or you may damage something or pinch your fingers. I will concentrate on the tent itself. This tent looks like any standard cabin tent from the inside and the outside. It is roomy and has no sagging due to the well-fit pole frame. The windows all have sippers for screen ventilation. There are two ceiling vents. These are a great idea by Coleman. The nice thing about the vents is that they can be completely closed or opened. I did order the rain fly with mine so I can leave the ceiling vents open even when it is raining. Although this is billed as a 6 person tent I would rate it at a 3 person if you don't want it to be too crowded. There were 2 of us on our first outing in this tent. It was very roomy for 2 of us, our mattresses, a small table and then room for our packs. It is nice to stand up in a tent after years of having to crawl around in small dome tents when I was camping on my own. I will now also take this tent to camp when it's ONLY me since it is so easy to set up. Why should I put up with the cramped quarters of my backpack tent when I'm car camping and this tent is so convenient? I will advise that I did waterproof this tent with silicone before using it and I always use a ground tarp underneath. With the windows cracked and the vents open we had zero dew inside the tent. It didn't rain on this first outing so I can't speak to how it would perform but I carefully inspected the seams and saw none of the tell-tale pinholes that might mean a leak. This is a great tent for my purposes.7-10-14 - I have now used this tent for 3 camp-outs and it continues to impress me. It withstood a 3 hour rainstorm in the Smoky Mountains and was completely bone-dry inside. Again, it should be noted that I took the time to waterproof the tent before ever using it but I am can't imagine that this tent would have leaked. Properly staked I can't see this tent even budging in the winds associated with a thunderstorm. One added benefit of the rainfly is that it also has guy ropes to help further anchor the tent. I always use a ground tarp under the tent, tucked under so water doesn't collect underneath the floor if it does rain. This is a great tent.P.S. My own touches - I use those interlocking multi color mats that you can by at Home Depot or Lowes inside the tent for padding and protection and I bought the longest nails, spikes really that I could find at the hardware store which I use for stakes. They are inexpensive, around a buck each and they do a better job than the cheap stakes the tent comes with.3.23.15 - Have now used this tent several more times and I can't say enough good about it. Remember that I did take the trouble to waterproof the tent with Kiwi waterproofing aerosol and I also use the rain fly. It rained again on my most recent outing and we stayed completely dry while we heard those around us scrambling to avoid puddles or as in the case of one camper - just packed up and left. The ease of setting up and fast setup proved even more useful during the last day of my most recent trip. Not only could I pack up my tent quickly in the rain, but when I got home I could quickly set it back up to dry once the sun came out. Now that I've practiced a few times I can set up and take down my tent by myself. Bottom line- great tent that lets you enjoy camping instead of spending time matching poles or wrestling with inserting fiberglass poles into the sleeves of a dome tent. Heed my advice though and use a ground cloth, get better tent pegs, use the rain fly and waterproof everything just to be on the safe side. You can have your tiny 400 dollar one or two person tents for car camping but I will continue to enjoy my tent that is more like a house and lets me stand up and stretch out with all my gear. BTW I have an expensive Catoma one person tent that takes longer to set up than my Coleman Instant Tent.

O.K., I received my 6-MAN Coleman Insta tent today. I set it up and I really like it. I can stand straight up inside (I'm 6'1") and the walls are pretty straight-up compared to most tents, si the soace unsude us efficient. It sets up real easy and comes down real easy, but it is a real pain to roll up and put in the bag. I notice the bag is expandable, which is a very smart idea - plus, the bag in it's original size is adequate, unlike most other bags I've had where you really have to fight to get the tent back in after the original escape.The tent is a perfect size for just me or even me and one other for a quick night.I didn't leave the tent up for the rain today, but I notice that the weak spots in terms of leakage for most tents are better designed on this tent. The bottom right-side of the door, where the two zippers meet is usually a very bad spot. This tent has an outside flap covering the zipper that is at least twice as big as on my other tents. I also has an inside triangle cover in that corner that keeps the zippers outside the that flap, so water running down the zipper should be directed outside instead of inside. A slightly different, but similarly effective design is used at the edges of all the windows where the zippers pull down to. In other words, the water running down those zippers should be directed outside the tent walls.The window also cuts below the level that the zippers pull down to, so that the window flap (which a number of people complained about becausee it doesn't tie-up and thus is flapping all night in the wind) can be tucked in to avoid any flapping.At 10' X 9', a 10' X 8' tarp fits perfectly under the tent for extra protection and to keep the tent clean. It's nice to have the bottom of the tent clean, so you don't have to clean it off before you pack it or when you get home by taking it back out and messing around that way. I keep the plastic bag the 10' X 8' tarp came in so a dirty tarp can be placed in it (trapping the dirt) and pulled out separately when you get home to clean. I already have that tarp in the tent bag - it fit easily.I'm real anxious to see if water siphons in through the tent walls when something is touching the wall. Even if that happens, I can deal with it, since there is just enough space to do so. However, it would be sooo nice not to have to worry about that.

Tents come in many shapes and sizes, each have their positives, and their negatives. Some tents are cheap, while other's, really expensive. The best tent for you, is going to depend on what you need from a tent, and how much money you are willing to spend. Most people who like to camp in the summer time, will probably be satisfied with a tent like this one. While other's who camp in extreme cold temperatures, might be inclined to go with one of those super thermal padded tents.PACKAGING: Coleman loves to double pack these tents. When you receive your package, and open it up, it reveals the Coleman bag as seen in photo 1. If you unzip the Coleman bag, it reveals another box! Once you open up that box, finally, you will be able to pull your tent out of the box to begin deploying.DIMENSIONS: The dimensions of the tent are, 10 feet long, by 9 feet wide, and 6 feet tall. I chose a tent this big because I wanted enough space. However, they always overstate a tents capacity. It may fit up to 6 small children. But in reality, this tent can only house up to 4-adults, and up to 2-adults comfortably.PITCHING: Pitching the tent, is not as quick as the company says, which should be no surprise to no one. If you had 2-people working together, you could perhaps do it in 60-seconds. However, I pitched it all by myself, and it took closer to 2-minutes. When you compare this design to a dome tent however, you will take much longer to set one of those up. All you have to do, is stand the spider column (as I call it) upright, then unfold each leg, until the tent is flat on the ground. Then begin extending each leg of the tent, until the button snaps through the slots. Again, it will be a bit cumbersome for 1-person to do, however, still faster then setting up a dome tent.Once the tent is pitched, and you've stretched all the legs outward, then begin setting up your guidelines. If your tent is on earth, you can use the included stakes they give you, to stake the tent down using the guidelines. Additionally, if you plan to camp on days where it will be raining, you really need to waterproof the tent with the optional rainfly accessory, model 2000010331. The rainfly is nearly impossible to put on, via 1-person, once the tent has been pitched up. I recommend 2-people to install the rainfly. The rainfly secures to the tent via plastic C-clips. And the rainfly comes with its own stakes and guidelines, to secure to the earth.INGRESS: The tent has only 1-entry point, the front door. And unlike most tents, which the door spans the entire front half of the tent, this tent's door, only opens 1/2 of the front opening. I would have liked to have seen the full width being used. There are instant popup tents that are larger in size, that do use full width doors. As typical with all tents, it is double zippered, so you can close and open it from within.WINDOWS: This tent is fully loaded when it comes to windows! There is literally windows on every side of this tent, all of them have 2-zippers per window. Each window has a mesh screen to keep bugs out, and each can be rolled down and secured with the knobs they provide. The reason they didn't use the full width for the door, is because they wanted to put a window next to the door as well. So rest assured, if your camping in the summer time, you are going to get plenty of ventilation.VENTS: Now this is where I can be a bit nit picky when it comes to vent locations. On larger tents, they often put the vents close to the bottom of the tents, usually located in the back, or on the sides of the tent. But they chose to put the vents on the top of the tent on this model. I guess if your camping in the summer time, since heat rises, having them on the top makes sense. But if your camping in the winter time, its only going to let all the heat out. And if your running propane heaters, such as the buddy heater, you really want it to intake air from the bottom of your tent. Also, if you close the vents, there is still no way to make them seal in their closed position, so they will still vent when you don't want them to. The vents also come with zipper meshes, as well as the velcro strap that keeps them open.MATERIAL: The materials that this tent consist of, 150D Polyester, and Taffeta 150D. They use taped seams, inverted welded seams, and use rugged polyguard. I'm not an expert on tents, so I can't tell you the values of these materials, or how they are constructed. What I can tell you, is that no integrated weathertek system is going to completely waterproof the tent without the rainfly accessory. However, for a super light sprinkle, you can get away with it.For the most part, this tent feels like quality to me. A lot of times, companies will cheap out on the zippers, but these ones seem pretty good. The material makeup of the tent seems fairly solid, and the aluminum legs also seem pretty good. The spider column was fairly easy to work with when setting up the tent, so I think it is durable enough as well. Do I think the materials would hold up in winds up to 50MPH or more? No, absolutely not! But who's camping in stormy winds?ACCESSORIES: The tent comes with several accessory points that I like. Outside the tent above the door, there is a loop where you can hang a lantern, mosquito repellent, etc. Inside the tent are two mesh pockets, one close to the door on the side of the tent, and the other on the back half of the tent, on the other side. These mesh pockets can be used to store cell phones, keys, lighters, emergency supplies, pretty much anything you need small pockets for. The tent also comes equipped with a lantern hanger. But if your lantern only has a handle instead of a hook, you will need to use a carabeener to attach to the lantern hanger.EXPERIENCE: Most of you are going to use a tent to go camping. While I would love to go camping personally, I no longer have a vehicle, so I have no access to camping sites. Instead, I am thinking outside the box, and solving a problem I have. I lease my workshop, therefor I do not own the building. When you are leasing, its illegal for the renter to make changes to the building, its up to the person who owns the building to do that. The sheet metal roof of my workshop leaks when it rains. When it snows heavy, snow also falls in from the ridge cap. And since my shop is not insulated, it gets mighty cold in there during the winter time, there is just no way to heat it.NOTE: Absent T land owners are not fun. They don't consider you important, and they refuse to fix problems. But they love to go numerous vacations every year all over the world, with the money they make from your rent payments. Capitalism at work fellas.To solve this issue, I bought this tent, I knew that it would solve two problems for me. First, keep the rain off of my most important machines, and provide heat to keep the freezing cold at bay. Also, I wanted a space where I could do work in warmer temps. As you can see from the pictures, the tent fits the available space I have in the shop quite well. I ran an electrical cord up through the top vent, so that I can have power to run a light, space heater, and a charger.I used a 32-WATT LED worklight as my light source, I just used a small bungee cord wrapped around the light's frame several times, then put both the hooks onto the lantern hanger attachment. While it may be crude, it works, and thats all that counts. I run the space heater on low, its set to 65 degrees F, and it oscillates to move the heat around. When I am not working in the tent, I store my 2-best mowers inside, and a scooter. The mower closest to the camera, I actually bought on Amazon!I use an outdoor wireless thermometer to monitor the temp inside the tent, thats how I dialed in the heater. Also, to protect the tent floor from tearing, as I am moving heavy equipment in and out of it, I chose to line the floor with cardboard, and taped the cardboard together. And since I unfortunately do not have carpet material, I chose to just staple some blankets to the cardboard. If anybody has any knowledge on where I can get carpet to line this square footage on the cheap, please let me know.When the temperature is in the 30's, I am able to maintain 54 degrees F with the heater on low. (750-WATTS) When the temperature is in the 40's, I am able to maintain 60 degrees F. If I through the heater on high, (1500-WATTS) I could easily hit the mark of 65 degrees F while its in the 30's out there. But I don't want to use that much power on my bill, so I chose not to. For those of you who plan to use a propane buddy heater, make sure your vent is open, otherwise you will burn up all your oxygen and become asphyxiated. A propane heater generally puts out more BTU's of heating power, but at a price of consuming propane.CONCLUSION: I am known to do things in unique ways, and this tent is no exception. While this tent is a very simple solution to a larger problem, it is both cost effective, ingenuitive, and it just works for me. Nobody can wait on absent t owners to handle things. And there was no way I was going to spend 1000 dollars of my own money to insulate the workshop and fix the roof leaks. I really love my tent, it works really well, and I think you will love it too, if you choose to buy it. Despite a few of my nit picks, I am going to give this a solid 5 out of 5 stars!

Amazon confirmed the order on August 18 and the tent arrived on August 23rd. Both Amazon and USPS performed flawlessly.I did a backyard setup to check out the tent before using it. In general, I was happy with the tent condition and quality. Note that I am basing my comments on the 10 year experience with the 8 person version of this Coleman tent, which I used all over the North Carolina, mountains to the coast. I will be using this tent for a November trip to Cape Lookout, so it will be a good test of its ability to survive weather and winds.Liked:water resistance looks good. Seams are tight and sealed well. I found only 1 pinhole in an examination of all the seams. There was a very small hole in one of the side panels and a small hole in the floor. Gorrilla Tape fixed both of these. Probably from manufacturer since packing looked new.Bug resistance is just a good as my previous tent Never had any issues with bugs inside as long as tentmates zipped up the doors quickly.Weight and ease of setup is excellent. The smaller tent can be easily set up by one person in a couple of minutes, and with 2 people it can be done in a minute, not counting staking and guy lines.Zippers worked smoothly, just be careful to keep the rain flap out of the way when operating. Also, don't force the door zipper around the top corner when closing, especially when the tent is staked taunt. Never had a zipper problem in 10 years of use with my previous tent.Issues:Don't expect the floor size advertised. Tent in not 8'x7'-6' as stated in the Amazon copy. The actual size is more like 8'x7' as marked on the tent wall, and Coleman appears to measure footprint between the external frame poles, so usable floor space something like 7'-8" x 6'x8".People Capacity: If you want to sleep 4 people, you all better like each other! It's a perfect size for an old guy (78) using a cot and a chair inside. Two adults is good, sleeping on pads. I think I could also fit my grandchild (5) in as well and be comfortable.Rainproofing: When new, the tent will; be very dry. With use, watch the seams and reseal them as necessary. After 10 years of use and a really bad storm on the beach, seam integrity of my old tent was compromised and trying to re-tape and seal them didn't work well enough, so I replaced the tent. Keep in mind, this storm was 14 hours long and winds exceeded 40 mph, based on reading from a nearby weather station, so it took a bad beating. In hindsight, I should have folded it up and slept in the truck.There is a design issue too. In a heavy rain, water will collect at the bottom of each of the windows, even with the covers zipped up. The fix would be to put the screens outside of the covers. Again, not a big problem if the seams are perfect, but as the tent ages, it will begin to leak under the windows. Also, the rain fly sold by Coleman will not remove this problem because it does not cover the windows.Bottom line, for the price, the tent is a good value, in my opinion, for a starter tent and one that gets light to moderate use. I am sure I will get years of use from it. I do recommend it

WARRANTY UPDATE: I have to add to the observations below that Coleman's warranty department is amazing to work with. They took back the 6-person tent we found to be too small on our first trip, just because I felt that the 6-person description was misleading, no questions asked. NEXT, after the pin failed (see below) in wind, they're replacing it, no questions asked. The Amazon Prime window had closed by a month. The proper way to submit a warranty issue is on their website under WARRANTY. You simply save your receipt from here in PDF (or scan a print), write the date & "WEB" on the product, take a couple of pictures, and that's IT. They answered my inquiry in less than 24 hours. I'll stick with a company that stands behind their product - which in this case is a GREAT tent - this well.WIND UPDATE: ours collapsed but still 5-stars! It held out until we were taking it down. On our first Tiger Scout trip with this sustained winds were 10 to 14 mph but gusts might have hit 30 mph for two nights. Our packs' tents include various Colemans and direct "instant tent" competitors from Amazon and Walmart, but also some more expensive dome tents. Two or three failed equally, so no favor to the more expensive options.Although a pin failed when we were taking the tent down it held through two nights of winds from all directions off of the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico (at Florida Keys Camp Sawyer). If you look at the knuckle under the fabric on the frame you'll see they're plastic-reinforced tips through the metal rods, secured with a metal pin - the pin broke eventually, not the plastic or the rod, so I'd consider it pretty good construction for a "cheap" tent. At times the tent was pressed down on top of us, almost flattened. Although it rained HARD we were completely dry except for one side-seam that dripped only enough to soak up with a face wash cloth (not much!). The two doors were GREAT because we could use the "downwind" side rather than the "wet" side.I hope never to camp in another situation like this (probably motel camp), but learned a few things to pass on if wind is expected. (1) most important is to guy-line out farther than expected and will bring some glow sticks to help keep people away from them. Make them long - short guy-lines are not effective in wind. (2) forget the stakes that come with your tent - buy the strongest you can find (foot-long nail/spikes from Home Depot) and bring a hammer, not a rubber mallet. You may never need them but they're essential in the event of wind and will reach deeper in wet earth.I could have easily fixed the pin but before realizing how easy it would be we trashed the tent - the rods were bent a little and so I just hammered them down into one another. So, we'll be buying another of these. The only change I'm going to make is to buy more of the beefy spikes (they held very well), something to glow on the guy-lines, and a chord long enough to tie around the top of the rods to help keep them from flexing all around in high wind (thinking that maybe the chord will take some of the pressure off of the joints).Even though ours failed we were safe, dry and very comfortable until it was time to go. Love this tent!ORIGINAL REVIEW: My video is actually for the disc-o-cot but shows the tent wide open. Also, I say "eight people" can sleep on two side by side but obviously I mean four with more up front. Other reviews hit all the high points about 1 minute setip, quality and dryness. This is a great tent. The OPTIONAL fly is essential for ventilation if there's any chance of rain but the tent stays dry inside without it. It rained two days without any leaks at all even though one of the front doors was not completely zipped at the floor.I strongly recommend this rather than the 6 person version because the price, weight and ease of setup are comparable for the luxury of the extra room.We have been using the 6-person version for our family of three but even with a disd-o-bunk bed found it tight because we all like to sleep off the floor and cots take space. Don't even consider more than five in this tent even without cots, unless the kids are still very small, of course.By the way, the disc-o-cot hits a 9 foot wall because of the slope so the 6 person tent isn't optimal. Even though you're probably not using bunk beds now, the extra foot is nice.In addition to the giant 14 foot side walls this one has two 10 foot ends, each with a door. The extra door and one foot more than the 9 feet in the six person allows us to leave 2+ foot isle between cots, each of which is 30+ inches (we're car camping after all). There is a ton of extra space left over up font for a adult, two small kids chairs or all of your gear.Camping with cub scouts can be a real challenge especially when they're still bobcats, and a luxurious tent with a good night's sleep makes a huge difference! This is why I suggest this tent for even three.

...you ONLY camp in DRY weather!!!So this experience began as I purchased this 4 person tent a year ago so my wife and I could go camping for our anniversary. It seemed like a good deal and I have had other pieces of Coleman gear...sleeping bags, stoves etc since the 1970's and I was satisfied with the quality. First off...It took 3 times to get what one would consider a "new" tent. In all fairness, this could be due to the amazon/coleman returns process. The first had sand all in it and the second had a hole in the rear of the built in "rainfly". We did receive the 3rd tent with only a day or two to spare before going camping. Last year, we arrived in severe weather so we were stuck in the car until it passed and set camp late that night having thankfully nice weather until we left.Fast forward to this year, same campsite same tent. The first night to midday of the next day dry but breezy. Light rain started around 4pm as expected. Only 2 and a half hours of light to moderate rainfall into a 6.5 hour rain event, the roof started leaking at the seams and from inside the loop where you hang a light or something. Not long after that, say another 10 or so minutes, every seam under every window and even the back wall seam midway up the wall began to leak. As we started to see how much water was coming in, I noticed that ALL roof and wall panels are now saturated and water weeps inside directly where it lands on the outside! At about 9PM I knew there was a final line of heavy rain still to come before it all moved away so, I cut open a zip lock bag and used an entire roll of 1 inch gorilla tape to slow the ingress of water as it was ice cold and dripping on our bedding. we were committed since we couldn't get to our vehicle without becoming soaked. I should note that even when the heavy line came through, it was NOT severe. In total, we received about 1.5 maybe 2 inches of rain over the entire event. I know because I've been a trained NWS weather spotter for 2 decades and had my eyes on the radar.#weathernerdI will admit I became suspicious about the marketing of this model over the last year as I did see an additional rainfly available for this tent here on amazon. I thought why does it need another if they claim it has one built in and the whole thing has this weather tech coating complete with symbols of blowing wind?Back to the incoming weather.We DID have a wind advisory but being in a forest with 120ft+ tall trees, we never had anything on the ground level gusts higher than 10-20mph. I did have a tarp setup over the entrance that was facing the direction the rain was coming from (SW) so the doors did not leak as bad as every other surface did.I will say this, the "bathtub" design of this tent was SOLID and waterproof!! That is the ONLY reason for that extra star. We set the tent on top of a ground tarp but the bottom did not leak and thankfully so. While this was a challenge and we obviously didn't sleep well and had a fair amount of gear get wet, it did not completely ruin the trip. Keep in mind it was only used ONE other time a year apart and it stayed in it's case in storage.This is only a fair weather tent or for use in your back yard at home where if the weather turns wet, you can run into the house! Do not plan to use this for any camping where you have to drive any distance and/or to an event or occasion that is meaningful as it will let you down. The setup is pretty quick too, once you are used to it, you'll think of it as an inverted umbrella.In summary, do NOT take gear to the field without testing it first! I knew this and I just didn't because I ran out of time due to being sent used or defective merchandise. I mistakenly trusted a brand name and their marketing gimmicks. I will NOT be buying ANY other Coleman tents!Are they right for you? You, be the judge.Austin <><

UPDATE 6-person tent on the beach:I took the 6-person tent camping on the beach. Over-all it held up really well. I got it up in under two minutes. Then the wind kicked up. I would recommend that if the wind is over 10-15mph, don't go. I had to anchor all of the corners and use the tether lines with heavy duty tent stakes (I purchased separately) to keep it anchored to the ground. When trying to take it down, I recommend closing the door and leaving the windows half-way up just to release the inner air. I tried it first with the door and windows all of the way open and the tent kept blowing up like a balloon which kept causing the legs to reextend. It was nearly impossible to take down. I had to really struggle to try and get it to collapse. I never had this problem with my traditional tent where I could just remove the poles. With no wind, I would say it is perfect.UPDATE 6 - Person Tent:I replaced the 8-person tent I had to throw away with the 6-person version. OMG - SO MUCH EASIER!! I was able to get it up by myself in around 1 minute and take down - back in the bag within 2 minutes! I went through the whole process twice just to make sure! The tent fabric is thick and feels very durable. The floor is the thickest I have ever seen on a tent.... It's like a heavy duty tarp. So far I am really impressed! I changed my overall rating from 1 star for the 8-person to 5 stars for the 6-person! I will write another update after I take it to the beach in a couple of weeks and see how it holds up there.ORIGINAL PURCHASE 8 - Person tent:I have been camping for over 40 years. I selected this tent because it advertises as "instant-tent with 60-second easy assembly." So much better than the hassle of dealing with multiple poles... right?The 8-person tent has 6 legs; one in each corner and one on each side where there is no door. It was like trying to wrestle an angry octopus - seriously!! It requires a bare minimum of 2 people (and four people would be better) to set it up. You have to raise all of the poles at the same time or it will just keep collapsing in different directions. It took us over half an hour of struggling to get it up. I was exhausted and sweaty at the end.One of the poles bent the first time the tent was up (not sure how, it wasn't manhandled and no wind or anything) and it will no longer contract or expand. And the fabric was thin and saggy... as well as the floor. I don't think it would hold-up in the wind or rain at all.Taking it down was just as difficult as setting it up (or more so) because the poles kept collapsing every which way. You can't take them all down at the same time unless you have 6 people. So we had to figure out how to manually fold and realign the legs from the big tangled pile on the ground in order to get the tent to fold back up for transport.I bought this tent because it was supposed to be easy!! Maybe the 4 or 6-person tent that only has the 4 corner poles would be much easier to manage; but this 6-pole 8-person model is a nightmare! I threw it away. I could have tried to return it for the refund but with the bent pole that would no longer contract, I couldn't get it back in the box! UGH!!!!!!

I have had my Coleman Instant Tent for about 2 years now and have had it on several camp outs in all kinds of weather. It is clearly the best tent I have used. It is roomy, tall enough to stand up in, has large windows that can be opened for excellent ventilation. In addition I can set this tent up by myself in a couple of minutes and take it down and have it put away myself in about 5 minutes.There is also no rain fly with this tent which I consider an advantage. I have seen some people complain about getting water in the tent but I have not experienced that. One thing I can tell you is that there are a couple of things you need to do to stay dry. The first is to actually use the tent stakes and make sure you pull the bottom of the tent all the way out so the sides are taught. This keeps the sides from sagging and allowing water in. The other thing is when you close the door you need to make sure the it is closed properly with the bottom flap on the outside of the tent. If the flap is on the inside then any water running down the front of the tent will come in. I have stayed in both sealed and un-sealed instant tents in heavy rain storms and have always stayed dry. I personally used seam sealer and camp dry on my tent but my friend didn't treat his and it kept us dry.In case you are not familiar with tents - don't try to fit 6 people in a 6 person tent. A good rule of thumb is 1/2 as many people as the tent is rated for and that will allow room for gear and a little room to move around.This tent is certainly not a back packing tent or a tent you want to use if you have to carry it a long distance. This tent is best suited for camping when the car is not too far away from where you are going to set the tent up. If you are going back packing or have to hike 30 minutes into the woods - then I would not recommend this tent.

Zelt ist super einfach auf-und abzubauen, was ich nicht verstehe ist, was sich die Entwickler dabei gedacht haben, die Fliegengitter allesamt außerhalb zu "montieren". Wie soll man da die Vogelsch..... sauber wegbekommen ohne das ein Rest sich irgendwo noch hält. Da wo die 3 Reißverschlüsse bei der doppelten Türe zusammen kommen, können die sich auch noch was überlegen, da bei Regen eine große Pfütze im Innenraum war

Me pareció justo el tamaño para estar 4 personas cómodamente, caben 4 colchones individuales y queda como 1 metro de pasillo, se arma muy fácil de hecho lo hice yo solo, y al desarmar si necesite poca ayuda sobre todo para volverla a meter a la bolsa, pero nada imposible, lo único que no encontré fue alguna entrada para el cable de luz pero bueno lo pasamos por la puerta principal, compre el RainFly para mayor protección aunque no nos llovió si sirve para que no entre tanta luz. La calidad me parece buena y es totalmente hermética si la cierras toda, no tiene alguna salida de aire por el piso como otras casas; que para noches frías esta bien pero si note que condensa algo y se sienten húmedas las paredes por adentro en la madrugada, pero bueno no es algo que nos molesto.

Coleman 4 person tent easy to setup . Product received in good condition . It’s recommended to buy as it has quite good room space for 4 person & good more windows for air flow inside the tent . Would definitely recommend Others to buy for worth the money .

fantastic product.....all that i needed

さすがにUSモデルだけあって、中は天井も高く広々していた。強風にもびくともしない！輸入税やら必要であったが、いい買い物をした。このサイズでポップアップテント並みに設営も撤収も楽なものは、なかなかないと思う。
