Coleman Instant Tent with 1-Minute Setup, 8-Person Tent with Pre-Attached Poles, Air Vent, & Carry Bag

Awesome pop up tent! Super easy to pop up and pack away! Great quality. It’s a little small, but fits two good.

We bought this tent to go camping with friends for 3 days. It was really easy to assemble. It took about 3 minutes. It is very well made. It is water proof. We did not have any leaks at all inside. I loved that I had plenty of room to stand up to get dressed and to have my queen size air mattress. It doesn't come with a top rain flap so you do have to purchase that separately. I didn't realize this till we got to the campground. It doesn't affect it being water proof it just allows you to keep the windows open if it's raining and rain won't get in. I would definitely purchase this tent again because of its ease of use and it's great construction.

*** update 8/1/23 First rain. No leaks! I do love this tent, however I still worry about future leaks due to design. Water does pool in window flap areas. In a longer storm, will ultimately leak, I fear. Poor design. The optional rainfly should be extended to more fully cover. Camp with a tarp to toss over it. It remains great for headroom and size. My next tent will be a Coleman due to their great customer service, but not this model! ***7/23 update on review.... I reached out to Coleman regarding the issues cited below in my original review and my concerns were immediately addressed as the tent was still under its one year warranty. I merely had to fill out a form send in pictures and they immediately sent me a brand new tent. I am hopeful that this one will not have the same issue. I am reassured that Coleman stood by their name and replaced this product. Once the replacement tent hits the rain, I will update this review again as to how it stood up. But, in the interim at least you know Coleman does still stand behind its name if you have an issue!Original review 6/23....I was so excited about this tent. I've had Coleman tents in the past and have never had an issue and they held me safe and dry in every storm. Not this one! I am so disappointed. I've used it a couple of times in good weather. It is so easy to set up. I absolutely loved it.... until today. First rain storm. Every and I mean every seam leaks! The windows are just channels for the water to come in. I should have listened to all the reviews I read about leaking, but I had such faith in Coleman that I didn't. I had even treated this with a sealant before I even used it but obviously that's not going to make any difference if every single seam leaks!!! Oh and yes I did buy the rainfly. Doesn't make any difference if every seam on the side walls leaks! So disgusted! Don't buy it unless you're going to always camp in perfect weather. Then, you'll love it.

I needed a tent for a two-day camping trip. I watched a number of videos and read plenty of reviews. Unfortunately by the time I got around to purchasing one, the newer model did not come with a rain-flyer, or a little tarp outside to put your shoes on. I also found that the bottom of the tent did not seem as durable as the video review of the prior Coleman 4-person tent review.Setting up the tent is quite easily done. We had very good weather and it did not rain at all. Due to the thickness of the bottom of the tent not being as constructed as heavily we ended up purchasing a tarp to put underneath it. I also purchased a rain-flyer for $40 since it didn't come with one. So far we are up to over $200 for this setup.After returning up a few weeks later I set it up in the backyard to test out an inflatable air mattress. The air mattress I found was not comfortable at all, and since it was getting late I figured I would pack up the tent the next day. The next day I went to pack up the tent and full water puddles in the tent. At first I thought maybe the wind blew the rain-flyer off and the rain came in through the space between the (2) zippers on each of the side windows. However I then noticed that spot was covered. So I cleaned up the mess and put the tent through a lite shower setting on my hose with the water coming straight down.The fabric seemed to be very resilient to water, and it look as though the water was bouncing right off (kind of like a car with rain-x on it)...this made me feel pretty good. However, once I stopped the lite shower and looked inside, I found water seeping in on the seams on the bottom. I was very disappointed. I suspect I shouldn't have purchased a Coleman product. Some of the reviews indicated the same thing, but others indicated they had no issues. I thought the Coleman products were put through a quality test prior to being sold / shipped out. I am guessing not.So I started a warranty claim considering it was only a month and a day since the purchase of the tent. What I have read so far indicates the purchaser has to pay for shipping. I suspect by the end of this I would have invested more than $250 for a tent and separate rain-flyer. I opened the claim on the weekend (9/18/21) and have not heard anything from the manufacturer yet.Summary: Ease of setup -> Thumbs Up Water Resiliency -> Thumbs Up Water-Proof / Poor Craftsmanship -> Thumbs Down.I would not suggest this tent to anyone, unless they have a way of testing it prior to purchasing it.Update: I contacted Coleman as it was past the 30-day purchase time frame. Kimberly from customer support reached out to me via phone, and followed up with an email. They had offered to replace the 4-person pop-up tent with (2) other versions, however they were not pop up tents, wouldn't work with the $40 Coleman rain-flyer that was purchased and were less expensive models, in addition to not being as tall. I suggested an alternative 4-person pop-up tent, however it was out of stock with no known arrival date. Kimberly was going to offer the 6-person pop-up tent as an alternative, however it was out of stock as well. Kimberly then offered up the 8-person pop-up tent as a replacement. My initial thought was no as it was twice as heavy, twice as big, and some reviews indicated it leaked and required preferably two-people to setup. However, after speaking with a couple of friends and family we decided to accept the 8-person tent as a replacement. Once it arrived, my daughter and I set it up. It was certainly helpful to have the both of us doing it. It is quite large, and is over 6' at the center. It also has two-rooms. I tested the tent with the hose simulating a shower for a good five minutes, and not water came through the seams. The only time water came in was when I open the door and windows (naturally). My daughter loves it and is looking forward to using it next year with friends. I contacted Kimberly from Coleman to ask what to do with the 4-person pop-up tent. She indicated to either donate to charity or do whatever I want with it.Summary: Though the initial experience of realizing the 4-person pop-up tent was leaking, Coleman stood behind their product and provided great customer service. Thank you Kimberly for all your help.I moved this from a 1-star to a 4-star review thanks to Kimberly and Coleman standing behind their product.
