So in any case, this is lots of space but note that the sleeping area is around 9.3 square meters or so. This is still enough to accommodate 6 people, and you still have the screen room for boots and shoes, and the porch area. So the picture above shows the tent from the front where you have the only door with the central zipper and the screen room as the front area.
Coleman Instant tents are where it’s at.If you’re 4 people, get a 6 person tent. My SO and I share a 4 person and it’s enough for us to sleep in and store all our clothes. Unless you only plan to bring this tent out for the occasional dry weather camping trip, the fact you have to buy a separate rain fly really reduced the value for money of this tent for us. The Coleman 6-Person Cabin Tent with Screened Porch can accommodate up to six people, making it perfect for families or groups of friends.
Our other main issue was the lack of a vestibule, which means that in the case of a sudden rainstorm, there will be no dry area to store your wet clothes before entering the tent. And although we did like the two deployable vents on the roof, you’ll want to make sure to keep those closed if the weather is at all questionable since they are liable to let rain into the tent. In the 2022 redesign of the Marmot Tungsten 4, however, we did notice a weakness in the tent’s pole design. Like the Mineral King 3, the Tungsten 4 has poles that are pre-bent. The purpose of this is to pull out the tent fabric and give the dome greater volume; generally speaking, we view it as a plus as it gives dome tents a more open feel.
And seeing as this tent is actually kind of perfect for those sort of trips, it could be good value for you. You can take the savings you get from buying a tent without a rain fly to invest in other camping gear. The Sundome offers more storage pockets and a lighting loop that is great for holding a lantern. Deciding which factors are most important to you before making a purchase is important. As anyone who has ever gone camping knows, setting up a tent can be time-consuming and frustrating. There are endless poles to fumble with, and it always seems like half of them end up in the wrong place.
You secure the rain fly to the tent using velcro, although you also have to pull it tight and stake it. Assembling this tent is easy thanks to the pre-attached poles which click into place, forming the coleman tents cabin shape of the tent. The 4-Person model is better at dealing with wind because it has a smaller peak height and vertical walls. We used a Colman instant cabin before I bought the pop up camper.
If you want to know more about the selection process for these tents, or to have more info to help you decide on which one to pick, keep reading below. It’s a sturdy tent made by CORE, a small company based in the Midwest, privately owned and known coleman sleeping bags for great designs. The Core 9 Person Instant Cabin Tent is the first tent we’ll be reviewing. Coleman is one of the most reputable manufacturers of camping items. Operating for more than 120 years, the company has an excellent reputation.
It also comes with a tailor-made anti-abrasion groundsheet to protect the tent from wear and tear. For campers looking for a bit more space, the Marmot Tungsten 4-Person Tent is another good choice for two people. A full rain fly with easy-attach color-coded clips protects a half-mesh, half-polyester tent body and adds two large vestibules.
