Ozark Trail 7 Review 2023

Nobody wants to get soaked while out camping, I especially don’t want any of you to become drenched from the rain after a Ozark Trail recommendation on my behalf. There are four skylight mesh roof vents that provide extra ventilation in addition to the six windows. This provides roughly 14 square feet of space per person if you do put 10 people inside. If you’re searching for a more weather-resistant camping tent for 10 people, we suggest the NTK Arizona GT. This tent was actually better for preserving heat inside the space than many other summer camping tents. Ozark Trail is a line of tents manufactured for retail sale in Walmart stores.

Mostly, Ozark Trail is known for their hiking boots and their tents. Now you can velcro the tent’s walls to each of the poles and move outside to stake out the guy lines. Once you have all six of the lines out and the stakes secure, you’ll want to move back inside the tent and then extend the poles’ bottom portion to their full length. At this point, you can circle back around and tighten all of your stakes and lines and enjoy.

When it’s done, the tent should have a nice even hexagonal shape. The poles themselves pretty standard affair when it comes to tents. One of them has an additional y-shaped piece with a rubber stopper on the top. In fact, with a little bit of seam sealer and an at-home ozark trail tents DWR treatment, the tent performed much better in the rain than otherwise. All told, with some aftermarket work and careful staking, the tent will hold up in mildly unpleasant wet weather conditions. I still would not recommend it in extended rainfall or during storms.

One common issue with these tents was poles that had snapped either when packing or unpacking the tent. However, these tents are less likely to last through many uses. Some common complaints about durability are poles and stakes breaking. At this price point, you can’t expect to get a tent that will last you through years of use. In saying that, many campers are actually surprised by the durability of an Ozark Trail tent. All of the Dome tents are fitted with an e-port that enables you to hook up electrical devices effortlessly.

I had to tape the tent together with military issue 100-mile-an-hour tape. I’m going to Coleman for now on because you are incapable of making a zipper that doesn’t break so damn easy on the door. The question I put to you are you making this material out of pewter or real metal. What more descriptions do you need, my finger went on handle pulled it down it broke. The people who make your zippers should quit and get another profession. Your zippers are the worst in all camping gears I have bought.

In the side rooms, you have dual pockets on two walls, so again 4 pockets per room. You shouldn’t have any issues with ventilation because of the following. There are floor vents in the side rooms, and the ceiling is all mesh. All is described in the picture ozark trail canopy below, this is an instant tent and the setup cannot be easier. There are statements about 5 queen size beds used in this tent, and I do not think this is a serious statement. You can use them two for sure in the two side rooms and this is it.
