Coleman Cabin Tent with Instant Setup in 60 Seconds

Product Information

Used a heavy duty green tarp from toolstation as a footprint, so had no underfloor moisture problems. We have enjoyed camping all over the place including the Highlands and Islands in worse weather and lesser equipment with no such issues. Ideally it really needs some more vents each side which can also be left open all of the time but covered to help with the breath-ability.

The interior of the tent is a little on the smaller side, with a peak height of only 44 inches, so it is best suited for sleeping rather than socializing. The first one I set up in the garden and it did go up very fast, it did rain and it highlighted that the seam all the way round the tent where the side walls were sewn on to the ground sheet all leaked! The second night there was no rain and the condensation was a little less but still bad even the front wall which is covered by the tarp was very wet inside so I know its not leaking. This is where the Instant Tent 6 shines. it's one of the least expensive tents we've reviewed. Does it have its flaws? Sure. But it's still a great value at that price-point. If you live in the Pacific Northwest, you might want to look elsewhere, but if you live in California, Colorado, or any other state that typically sees 300+ days of sun a year, the Instant Tent 6 would be a worthy choice. 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!When this tents fold-out mechanisms work, its pretty impressive, when its goes wrong, you're battling a many legged beasty. My seam sealer also proved itself as there were no leaks, although the Tarp does go over half of the roof.

I go camping on my own with the kids, I also hate poles . So when I saw this tent I had to have it! The Instant Tent™ Tourer 4 Coleman offers enough room to sleep for 4 person but without extra living space. This Instant Tent™ Tourer provides the incredibly fast pitching technology also for more active campers who seek a reliable, small but convenient and comfortable tent. Ideal for weekend get-aways and festivals. 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. The storage bag is a little on the long side, but given that it's a large family tent, it still gets the job done with a minimum of difficulty or awkwardness. 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.

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.
