Coleman Cabin Tent with Instant Setup in 60 Seconds

Product Information

Have used the tent 4 times last year,once setting it up in very rainy and gusty (40mph + ) conditions - I had to tether the tent while setting it up. So far have had no problems with the tent ,spent a total of 12 nights in it . Spacious sleeping compartments-able to take my Laguna Xl and wife's standard camp beds in sleeping compartment as well as camp table,chairs and cooking equip in outer compartment.

The tent has, however been returned, I hope not unfairly. That is why I give only 5/10 for an otherwise well-made and designed tent. No condensation problems found in inner sleeping compartment and opening the vents and mesh in outer compartment seemed to obviate it there. Coleman has a very European approach to the design of their tents as they sell to all major European countries. They place great emphasis on quality features which means that while Coleman Tents may not always be the cheapest tents, they certainly manufacture quality tents. My seam sealer also proved itself as there were no leaks, although the Tarp does go over half of the roof.I'm going to see if any repair centres could possibly put some extra vents in each side which may help to reduce the condensation problem but not too big make it always cold! Just left a review for the Outwell tomcat mp, which I've just bought, but the reason I just bought it was because of this one . The Coleman instant :( My rating and review of this tent are based on my understanding of the design, and limitations thereof, before I bought it. That said, perhaps a better tent for the enthusiast than the casual camper. Used a heavy duty green tarp from toolstation as a footprint, so had no underfloor moisture problems.

On its first outing this proved vital as it did rain although light showers I was able to cook and the wife and I had somewhere to sit without getting rained on.

Conclusion

It also showed the need for a porch area for somewhere to cook/and cover the doorway when getting in/out. Besides spacious dark bedrooms the Instant Tent™ size 4 provides a large protected living area, large (selfrolling) windows and high quality fabrics with super-strong weather proofing. When this tents fold-out mechanisms work, its pretty impressive, when its goes wrong, you're battling a many legged beasty. I pointed out that like it or not we now but every thing on line, and they should provide proper written instructions on how to put it up and what if there is no WIFI where I'm camping?
