Coleman 8-Person Tent for Camping

The Coleman Red Canyon 8-Person Tent for camping features a spacious interior, so everyone can stretch out and relax without feeling cramped. Great for weekend camping trips with family and friends, this camping tent comes with room dividers that let you create 3 separate rooms for privacy. Its 6-foot center height allows you to stand comfortably and move freely inside the tent. If it rains, the Weather Tec system with patented welded floors and inverted seams helps ensure you and your gear stay dry. A Cool-Air port and Variflo adjustable venting system allow you to adjust the airflow, so you can stay comfortable. This 8-person tent has shock-corded poles and easy-to-follow assembly instructions for quick setup. Separate storage bags for the tent, poles, and stakes are included to keep everything organized.

Positive facts: This tent is roomy. Setup is less than 15 mins with 2 people. Instructions are clear, but it helps to set it up first in your yard before going camping. There are no electrical ports, but you run all the cables through the door and close the zippers. The dome design will keep water out. Large enough inside to accommodate 3 queen size air mattresses. You even used the detachable “wall dividers” to have each mattress be in its own room one night just for fun. The tent packaging is surprisingly small and if you pay attention to how it was folded, you can repack it back into it’s bag without any difficulties. Camped with it on a mountain in the rain and you stayed perfectly dry overnight.

The bad sides of the tent:

The loop tore off the side of the tent where it stakes toa the ground. The door zipper is of poor quality. This tent needs a more substantial door zipper. The poles pull the tent so tight that the door is almost impossible to zip closed. This tent has trouble fitting back into the carrying case.The rain fly does not adequately cover the windows.

Really nice tent for the price. Without the rain fly it breathes nicely in warm weather. Other thoughts:
