Coleman 6p Simple Dome Tent

The tent fits 2 twin sized blow up air mattresses very well. Still have room for some of your stuff too. It says it is a 6 person tent but I don't think sleeping like sardines is a good idea. I was able to stand up Fully in the center of the tent. I am 5'5" tall. The material is strong and the zippers were very easy to use (no snags or hang ups). Haven't used it during a rain event yet so not sure on its rain proofing. The bag is very light weight with all the contents. I was easily able to put the tent up by myself with no one's help. That is a big plus! I think this tent is a good one for a max of three people.

A little about me... I'm an Eagle scout, my father was a school teacher and we spent the summers camping and I spent many days in the field while in the Army. I'm retired now and camp every chance I get. Mix that with a lifetime of avid camping I've probably camped more than 99% of the population. My overall review is this is an excellent tent for the money. It's a middle of the road tent. My other tent is a Coleman 6 man Instant Cabin Tent. I paid over $200 for it. This tent has many similar features like double stitched seaming with tape added to prevent seam leaks. It has a bathtub floor that keeps you dry when water runs on the ground. Ventilation is excellent as this is a three season tent. With its open screened top its not suitable for winter camping. I'm 5'10" and can stand up in the center with about 3" to spare. I can move about a foot in any direction before my head touches the dome. Its plenty of room for changing clothes or crawling in and out of bed. The floor is 9'6" x 10'6". That's 6" longer in both directions than my $200 6 man Instant Tent. The material is lightweight but appears to be highly water resistant. I was in a two day rain and it performed well. Seam sealer and longevity will tell. The design suggest to me it will hold up in high winds. I would replace the stakes with 9" stakes for better support. Also the rain fly has two Velcro straps that attaches to each pole corner. That's very important for pole stability. The poles of that type are the thickest Coleman makes which is an added plus. Room? You can fit two queen beds and a family of four okay. Two people and it's really comfortable. Why pack them in like sardines? Set up? I have a bad back and didn't read any directions. By myself I had the cabin up in 10 minutes. The rain fly and staking took another 10 minutes. That was my first time. I'm sure I'll get faster. This tent is covered by a 1year warranty. My previous experiences with Coleman customer service was excellent. I once bought a lantern with a cheap case included. When I received it there was no case. One quick phone call Coleman sent me their most expensive case for free. It cost more than my original purchase. I was happy with that service. Again for the quality versus price you can't go wrong. The only con I could find with the tent is the Coleman lantern logo on the back of the tent gets partially covered by the rain fly. I won't lose sleep over that. :)
