Coleman Brazos Review Tested by GearLab

Keep in mind that, for us, five is average on a scale from 1 to 10. We liked the interior pocket, especially the fact that it had a Velcro closure. The tent is rated for three-season use and includes a footprint. The tent is suited for three-season use and has a 69.4-square-foot interior.

The small internal pocket means your child won’t lose their flashlight during the night. The sleeping bag comes with ties to secure the bag when you roll it up, but these can be awkward for little fingers. If you want just one sleeping bag for year-round use, you’re probably looking at a 3-season bag.

Feels more like a medium weather sleeping bag, coleman cabin tent may be too much sleeping bag for some. Might not be suitable for serious campers who need something more heavy-duty. “No-Snag” patented zipper plows fabric away from the zipper to prevent snags.

There’s no stuff sack provided, but it comes with a quick cord system that you can use to secure the bag after you’ve rolled it up. The polyester tricot lining is soft and cozy, and the oversized zipper means it’s easy to zip and unzip the bag without snagging the fabric. The sleeping bag stands out for camping in cooler months or at high altitudes, given you can sleep in comfort at low temperatures (up to 20F).
