 Great Tent
By Jesse B Bartholomew
Note: This is a photocopy of the same review I gave on another site, going to undertake and post more of the pictures that I wasn’t capable to on that website here.
This has to be the best tent that I have had the chance to own. I own or have access to Coleman, Wenzel and respective other brand tents but only Coleman tents seem to last the best for this class. Heck my last Coleman is now 25-30 years old and it is still usable, though it is now on the little side as that was the tent I grew up in. As for class I mean Family/Car camping tents.
Simple setup and take down. Took only half an hour to put up by myself, only necessitated a little help with the rainfly. As a side note though I do have to say that users may need to ignore the instructions to raise the poles up to the high or third hole after raising the tent up. At initial setup mine was tight sufficient as it was. Rainfly coverage was excellent, but if there is a high wind and rain, the middle section may have a great deal of rain coming in from the screen on the top, the one that is a skylight without the rainfly on. No floor in the screened in area, but thats no huge for me. Screens themselves are not no-see-um mesh so keep that in mind. A mutual comment on last years model was that the tent acted like a wind sock due the the fact the back section had no screen. This years model does have a screen window on the high side of the rear section. Just like the other windows this one may likewise be zipped shut. Self rolling windows are an interesting idea, even though they took me down memory lane and the snap bracelets of the early nineties, largely cause they function precisely the same way. The biggest divergence is that these are not covered in fabric as the bracelets were, so when putting these in only an adult will have to do it. The supposed injuries due to the bracelets may also occur here but perchance more easily. If you may handle a 1″ wide metal tape measure without a problem even though I reckon you will have to be fine. Sleeping accommodations are a little relative, for me I feel this tent may sleep two or three comfortably, with cots or air-beds, a cooler and a chuck-box. If you just want to sleep in it the stated sleeping area is in regards to right, but be prepared for waking every one up if you have to get up in the middle of the night.
Now the most essential part, for me at least, Waterproofness. Can’t say how it will handle in a real rainstorm but I will tell you this, it held up good to the settings on my garden hose, with a friend standing inside. To give you an idea what settings I used, one was a fan setting (this puts out an arch that in regards to 90 degrees on a flat plain, I like it cause it produces reasonably realistic water droplets at a reasonably low pressure). The other was a needle setting (this does just what is says brings about a needle of water regarding the diameter of a wide grip pen, it is high pressure). The fan one I applied on the sides and the roof at a distance of with regards to 6 feet from the tent for with regards to 2 minutes on each section. Had no leaking issues other that the issue brought up above were water came in through the middle division on top. Rain-fly worked great as well. The latter I employed on the seams. For in regards to thirty seconds to a minute I sprayed each seam to see if any leaks showed up, I thought something had to show up with this setting. To my amazement not one thing did. So other than numerous rain coming in over the middle division there actually wasn’t an issue.
All in all this is a great all around tent, and in my sentiment stays true to the Coleman name. Only time will tell if it holds up to my old Coleman.
Edit as of July 28th 2009: After taking this tent out camping in the Black Hills of South Dakota I have a few things to add to the review. First I was out there for five nights and on each of those nights it rained. For the sake of honestness one leak did pop up and that was in the rear room at the base of the two big windows where the spring ends. Outside of that it performed flawlessly. We even had a few strong wind gusts that would have toppled my old dome tent. One of these rainstorms was strong sufficient that a mountain not 200-300 yards away could not be seen from the screen room. Also, all this was accomplished using only the firstborn Coleman waterproofing. I haven’t had to put any on myself yet. Another note dealing with the poles after all that rain I did find numerous rust on the poles as I was storing them after striking camp. However, for me I consider this normal wear and tear.

My little condo
By R. Scoggins
A condo, that’s what our new tent feels like. Loved the screened porch, the light system and hindged door. We have teased every one that we purchased a new condo. Oh, I almost forgot when it comes to the roll-up windows. Took my girlfriend camping for the introductory time with this tent and I thought the extra features would aid to settle her in to camping life and I was right. No fighting for the duration of set-up either. We took a few moments to lay out the poles and wow…set-up was a breeze. Everything fit nicely back in the bag too. If you are looking for a camping experience with a few extras, this is the tent for you.

 Coleman tent
By TJB
Overall I like this tent. It’s roomy sufficient for our family of 2 adults and 2 kids underneath 10 to sleep in and stand up in. We’ve only used the screened area to store stuff so I’m not sure if there would be sufficient room to eat in there if it rains (which it hasn’t yet on any of our trips). We love the screened roof which allows us to see the stars from our sleeping bags if we leave the rain fly off. It is very easy to set up and take down which is great for a novice camper like me. My only complaint is that the bulb for the tent light arrived broken and a alternate has to be ordered exceptionally so we haven’t been competent to use that feature yet.
