Cabin Camping Tent with Screened Porch, 4/6 Person Weatherproof Tent with Enclosed Screened Porch Option, Includes Rainfly, Carry Bag, Extra Storage, and 10 Minute Setup

I ordered the version with the full rainfly that can be zipped all the way down to cover the screened porch. I thought it would be awkward and a pain but the flaps tuck back out of the way when you don't want them, and add wonderful privacy when they're down. I camp a lot and am very picky about my tents. This tent checked most of my boxes and I honestly could not be happier with it! I camp with a large group of people and everyone said it was the best tent design. It didn't rain on our last trip so I can't speak to it's waterproofness, but in my experience it appears to be well made and most tents need an extra coating of waterproof spray after awhile anyway. I will update my review after my next camping trip. Pros: 1) Its got huge windows (3 large and a screen door that goes from floor to ceiling) I want to see the trees when I'm sleeping in a tent! 2) So tall inside! I'm 5'5" and probably could have done jumping jacks inside. 3) Easy set up and take down (I took the whole thing down alone which is something I couldn't do with my last 2 tents) 4) Not very heavy (also something I can't say about my last 2 tents) 5) It has a screened porch + an extra overhang so you can store gear out of the rain, but not have it cluttering the screened porch. Cons: 1) No way to hang a lantern in the center of the tent. 2) The screened door zipper is an upside down T so you have to be very diligent to make sure all 3 zippers are closed tightly so slithering creatures don't make their way inside. 3) Carrying bag is not big enough to get the tent, poles, and rain fly back in unless you are a master tent folder. I am not. Poles will be carried separately from here on out. Lol.

Forgive the heavy breathing. I started taking down the tent before I remembered to take a video for review and then had to put it back up to pull it down again. Now for the actual review. The tent is easy to set up; however, for my first time and making a few mistakes, it took 30 minutes on my own. This tent is an upgrade from my 2-person tent and can hold a twin or queen-size bed with space to walk around. I'm 5'4" and was able to stand fully. The quality seems fine, but only time will tell. The biggest con I had with this tent is that it lacks loops for lamps in the dome; lights will have to be placed on the floor.

Pros: 1. It's spacious as advertised. 6 people is pushing. But definitely 5 people is doable. We had 4 in it and there was plenty of empty space. 2. When set up, it's sturdy. 3. There are many ventilation knock outs with bug screens and privacy curtains. when all the curtains are drawn up, you have a panoramic view all around you. 4. The entry point is quite large even with rain fly that you don't have to bend down to crawl into the tent. I have a smaller Coleman tent for 4 people and it's a bit of pain to go in and out of the tent with that. Cons: 1. Setup is easy but not so easy. as you push in the bars, you kind of need to keep the tent up but it would not stay up as the bars go parallel to each other. So it keeps collapsing to one side. YOu will need to put a couple of temp stakes to hold each side of the tent as you build it. 2. Coleman's chronic issue with the bag continues. They make the bag way too small. When you try to put everything back in the bag, you will struggle and swear. But thankfully this one comes with a zipper at the bottom to make the bag larger when it's undone. There is absolutely no way to put all back in the bag w/o using the zipper. Even after expansion, I could barely fit all in the bag. Now it's sitting on the shelf expanded and bloated looking twice as large as the bag I got from Amazon. When I set it up, I feel content with the look, space and functions.

This review is for the six person tent with the weatherproof screen room. Summary Lots of floorspace, huge windows, great ventilation, and a weatherproof screen room are some of the wonderful features that makes this tent an obvious choice for warm weather "glamping" in rainy areas. Beware that the abundance of mesh makes this tent a poor choice for cold weather camping, and the heavy weight (30+lbs) is not ideal if you plan on hiking to your camping spot. Tent Dimensions - The bedroom is 9ft long x 10ft wide - The screen room is 4ft long x 10ft wide - The vestibule extends out an additional 3ft - The tent stands at 6ft 4in high at the tallest point - Without the rainfly (and therefore without the vestibule), the total dimensions are 13ft long x 10ft wide - With the rainfly (including the vestibule), the total dimensions are 16ft long x 10ft wide Pros - Phenomenal ventilation, even with the rainfly on - Extremely spacious interior: can (barely) fit 2 queen-sized air mattresses side-by-side - Huge, beautiful windows - The screen room is amazing! Great place to setup some chairs for bug-free lounging. The screen room also helps keep mud out of the bedroom - Multiple storage pouches - Relatively easy to setup (appx 15 minutes with 2 people) - Has port for extension cord. The port has a zipper to keep out bugs - Can stand up inside the tent (6ft 4in tall in center) - Vestibule area in the front of the tent is convenient for stowing gear out of the rain - Floor vent helps with air ventilation when the windows must be zipped up during rain Cons - Very heavy (30+ lbs) - No good place to hang a tent light (the ceiling is entirely mesh) - Storage pouches are high on the walls, which means you must stand up to access the contents - The screen room DOES protect against rain but DOES NOT protect against flooding ground water. The screen room only has tub floors on 3 sides... the front is mesh only. So flooding water could pour in from the front. However, part of the floor in the screen room is mesh, which helps to drain the water. Please note that this issue would only arise in a flood, not a simple rainfall - Screen room doesn't completely zip up, there is a small gap between the zippers which lets bugs inside - Coleman could've picked better colors. This thing looks like it's from the 90s - The rainfly only has partial coverage, which isn't ideal for camping in heavy rainfall. The windows must be zipped up when it's raining, which will contribute to heat buildup inside - Lots of mesh = great ventilation for warm nights... but contributes to poor insulation for cold weather camping. This tent is built for 2 seasons (late spring, summer, early fall) - Expensive - Stakes aren't heavy duty. May need to replace after several uses

Sehr gute Belüftung. Man kann die Fenster von innen öffnen und auch nur halb öffnen, sodass sie auch bei Regen offen bleiben können. Bei richtig gutem Wetter kann man sogar das Dach zur Mitte rollen und so den Sternenhimmel aus dem Bett sehen. Ich benutze das Zelt für meine Freundin, mich und meinen Hund. Dafür ist viel Platz für alle unsere Sachen. Der Wasserablauf im Vorraum ist perfekt für Dreck und nasse Schuhe. Die hinteren unteren Seitenwände musste ich nachimpregnieren, weil die Wand bei viel Regen etwas getropft hat. Das Dach und die Fenster sind dicht. Das Zelt lässt sich für eine Tunnelzelt extrem gut aufbauen. Die Stangen stehen durch die Schräge Anordnung von alleine, wenn man vorher die Bodenplane mit Heringen fest macht. Bei anderen Tunnelzelten führt man erst die Bögen alle ein und spannt dann jeden einzeln ab, damit er steht. Das ist hier nicht notwendig. Einfach reinschieben und der Bogen richtet sich automatisch auf. Egal mit welchem man anfängt.

1st time i used this tent out from the box, August 22 (Typhoon season in the philippines...) Pitching this in front of the beach in Bataan area while raining and 2nd time in Tanay Rizal Sept.18. I really can recommend this. Pros: Big Space ( Did not expect how big this one is), Huges window, nice ventilation, Enclosed Screened Porch - extra space where you can put all your things away from the element is very nice and prevent insect.. Cons: **the windows, During the rain you can not leave the windows open, water drippings from the rainfly directly in to the window. **Takes 2 person to set up/ 1 person w/longer time Very Satisfied!...

This tent ticks all the boxes. It has 360 degree view with large windows and a grand entrance with top-to-bottom mesh; keeping the bugs away while letting the cool breeze from the sea. No leakage from the top and the bottom after heavy rain. It was perfectly dry inside. It felt like your own tiny cabin rather than a tent. The size is perfect for a couple or a solo camper.

Sitting in the tent as I type this, in a rain storm. As other reviews say, it leaks at the seams between the window and the floor in the ‘bedroom’ compartment as the rainfly inexplicably doesn’t go all the way to the bottom like it does in the porch section. Great summer tent, but run and hide in the car if it rains steadily for an hour or more.

Good quality, and superseded by a longer pack unit which will not fit in my boot.
