Sundome Tent

I have had the 4p version of this tent for a while and I decided to downsize and buy a couple more 2p tents. I have a family of 6. So with x2 2p tents and one 4p tent, we can flex based on who is camping: with all 4 kids, we can have a 2p for adults and a 4p for the kids to share (or a 2p for the boys, a 2p for the girls, and a 4p for mom and dad, if we want to go a bit heavier on gear). With an adult and two kids, we can use two 2p tents. The 4p tent is pretty big- plenty of room for queen mattress + space to move around in and store gear. But, I found it too big for when I go camping by myself + my two boys. I'd like to be in my own tent and for the boys to share a tent, so the 4p was just too much for the two young boys. I haven't yet put a queen mattress in the 2p tent (supposedly it can fit), but I imagine it's a tight fit.The tents themselves are easy to setup and do well in rainy weather. One thing I like is that they stand alone without having to be staked in, so it can be setup and then moved into position. The fly can be attached to the tent without stakes, but it does require staking down on the sides to ensure water sheds off. The 2p tent is basically just a miniature version of the 4p, but it is a little easier to setup just due to being smaller. The 2p is a lot easier to setup by yourself. The 2p is about 2.5 lbs (24%) lighter than the 4p, but the package isn't all that much smaller. If you're car camping, the packed weight and size difference is minor. The ease of setup and flexibility of having more tents you can add/remove are the primary benefits of having the 2p tents in my case.I previously used a small one-man tent for when camping by myself. Although it was lightweight, I found it very uncomfortable, not very water resistant, and it took even longer to setup. The Sundome 2p is a big upgrade and I think the extra weight is worth the added comfort and ease of setup. I've used Marine Corps 2-man combat tents before. Those tents are definitely more heavy duty than the Coleman's (and priced several times more) and are heavier as a result. But for most purposes, the Coleman should be fine.Here's a weight comparison of the tents. I always use a tarp under my tents, so I included that weight.-1-man tent (Guide Gear brand): 6.5 lbs w/ tarp-Sundome 2p tent: 8 lbs w/ tarp-USMC 2-man Combat Tent: 10lbs w/ tarp-Sundome 4p tent: 10.5lbs w/ tarp

Wonderful product, easy to a set up very spacious

Great price for a great tent & got it next day w/$4.99 shipping made me camp-ready fir $70 by the following weekend. Bought seam-sealer as well, just in case, but as-is did a great job keeping out the wet & bugs in NW Missouri during 2017 solar eclipse weekend (light rain morning & afternoon 2/3 days).Definitely follow the recommendation to set up w/2 people. Extra set of hands during the raising part of setup avoids risk of forcing/damaging tent or possibly hurting yourself by off-balance leaning on muddy/uneven ground.When set up, pulled 4 corners taught and the front gray/tub surface beneath the door was wrinkled like maybe the base is not really square or maybe one of the extension poles is longer than the other and pulling oddly on that section of fabric from a higher angle, but tent worked beautifully regardless and I will be using it again in the near future. (Also hard to tell if ground was weird or just my tent has that quirk.)Breakdown was super easy for 1 person, even able to wipe off residual moisture and dirt/mud during fold-up & rolling. Tent & hardware tucked back in to carrying case with room to spare for odd accessories (small addit. tarp w/stakes & ties, seam-sealer bottle, and small flashlight for inside erected tent).Tons of room for 1 person in sleeping bag on twin-size air mattress, had space for all my gear and room for my 3 camping companions to sit inside w/me in event of rain (they had their own tents). Could stand but had to bend head so inside clearance probably 4'6"-5' high at center.Plenty of room for 2people to sleep plus gear. 3people sleeping plus gear would be pretty tight functionally. Would not recommend 4people unless gear kept in vehicle, separate tent, or you're all light campers and don't mind snuggling up together.The included, small exterior ground-tarp ("welcome mat") is basically useless for that purpose, better to place it in the corner nearest the door and remove footwear outside, then place muddy shoes atop mat so they can dry inside tent.At the end of the day, great product, have already recommended it via Amazon to friends & family.Coleman brand might incorporate a soft-sided 4-walled w/lid water resistant "shoebox" in right front corner of tent (nearest corner to door as you enter w/o fulling unzipping door). Have 2 access zippers, one on the outside (similar to power-plug access and more like upside-down window flap) above gray-bathtub base for placing shoes inside from exterior, one on inside lid for dry-air ventilation w/o contaminating majority area of tent w/whatever may be on shoes. Just a suggestion.

My new tent arrived yesterday. I'm taking it camping for the first time soon. So today, I set it up in my backyard to examine it, practice set up and also to spray it down with a water repellant. It arrived in the usual rectangular coleman zippered package (that I find useless for re-packing) and all parts were included: green/white/gray tent, green/white rain-fly, 2 long fiberglass poles whose pieces are connected by a stretchy thick string (for the tent), 1 medium length fiberglass pole with pieces connected by stretchy thick string (for the rain-fly) and 9 medium grade steel stakes about 7" long with the classic L shape on top (no plastic on stakes). I haven't set up a tent like this in several years and I tackled this project alone fairly easily in just a few minutes.First, I hung the rainfly on an outdoor clothesline and lightly sprayed the inside of the rainfly with Kiwi Heavy Duty Water Repellant. While that was drying, I set up the tent. It took me maybe 5 to 7 minutes, alone, to set it up. There was a little wind blowing, so that made it slightly interesting, but I just used common sense and got it up pretty easily. After I'd initially set-up the tent, I returned to the rainfly, flipped it and sprayed the outside material with a good, heavier coat of the Kiwi product, paying special attention to the seams again.Then I returned to inspect the tent while the rainfly was drying.The gray material sewn into the bottom of the tent is a very cheap grade tarp material. I doubt it would stand up to heavy abuse but should be fine for my purposes - I'll be sure to put a heavy duty tarp under the tent (called a footprint) to protect it from damage from rocks or such. I'll also use a lightweight floor cover of some kind inside to help prevent any nicks to the tarp material (it really is very thin).The rest of the tent material is very thin, standard tent material with double stitching on the seams.On two sides of the tent, the see-thru mesh is expansive covering most of the side and there is no option for covering this mesh (other than attaching the rainfly). The door and the rear window both have zippers to raise tent material over mesh material for privacy and rain protection. Those zippers can let down the tent material to allow air to breathe through the mesh. The door & window have a zipper inside. There are two small mesh "pocket pouches" on the inside for storing stuff. These are about 8" x 8", roughly I'd guess (didn't measure, but they're fairly small). They're sewn into the mesh sidings and hang on the inside. On the front, left bottom of the tent, where the gray tarp material meets the tent material, there is a small opening/port to run an electrical cord. There is a small loop at the top of the tent to hang a lightweight light. I'm 5'10" and I couldn't stand up in the tent but the tent's interior height wasn't bad to move around in just the same - not too cramped.In setting the tent up, one thing I liked was that the poles fed through tent-material loops along the top and then there were also 2 clips on each of all 4 sides (to further secure the tent to the pole). To me, this is the best of both worlds (loops vs clips).As with most tents, the size rating of "4 people" is ambitious. I expect it may sleep 2 adults and 2 kids semi-comfortably, but not 4 adults unless they were put in like sardines in a can with nothing else inside. I'd call this a roomy 2 person tent, so it should suffice for my purposes (and is 'why' I didn't opt to purchase the smaller 2 or 3 person variation).After I set the tent up, I sprayed the exterior with the Kiwi Heavy Duty Water Repellant, being sure to extra cover all of the seams - especially those seams where the tarp material meets tent material.I gave the newly applied Kiwi water repellant a few minutes to dry on the tent and then I took the rainfly (that was mostly dry from it's Kiwi water repellant application) and attached it to the top of the tent. This took maybe 4 or 5 minutes, as I tied out the sides to give the rainfly room to "breathe" above the tent.Note on Kiwi Heavy Duty Water Repellant - I'd buy two (2) 12oz spray bottles for this job. It's tough to get good coverage and you have to take your time with multiple light sprays. However, any "runs" won't show after it dries (unlike polyurethane). This stuff is smelly and should be applied outdoors on a non-windy day. I preferred the Kiwi over a polyurethane product because it's easier to apply and clean-up after, understanding that polyurethane spray would last longer.I left the tent to dry in my backyard, with a gentle wind blowing steadily, for several hours. It handled the gentle wind very well and looked the same set-up upon my return.Taking it down was easier than setting up and took just 3 or 4 minutes. But there was no way I could repack that tent into the Coleman rectangular carrier that it came in - not without significant effort and more time than I want to spend on it. So I'll use a large nylon bag that I have to store it in, along with the poles and stakes.The tent is fairly lightweight, but I can't imagine one person back-packing this on a long hike. You'd need to split the tent and poles between two hikers, I'd guess.I'll update again after my tent's first use. There's rain expected on my trip, so we'll see how well it holds up against that.

easy to set up, i set it up on my own in 5 minutes.It is very spacious for one person to sleep in, but would be very tight for two adults. You could easily fit two children in here.The first night I used it we had a very heavy thunderstorm and I stayed completely dry with the rainfly, but there was also little to no wind pushing rain in from the sides. Can confirm that it keeps the tent dry when rain is just falling and not blowing around. the bottom of the tent has a tarp-like material so it also kept the bottom completely dry.for the price it is definitely a great purchase.

I wanted a top quality tent and saw that this is a best seller on Amazon (between its various sizes) and bought it and have not been disappointed.It was a breeze to set up. It seems that everything has been well thought out and it’s hard to fault it .The door is large and it’s easy to get in and out. It can zipped up or unzipped from inside or outside.It has great airflow which is useful in hot and humid south Texas but I am not sure if I would need that much on a cold day.I have been replacing my 25 year old camping equipment and went this 3 person tent though I may end up buying the 6 person version.I wanted to try it out in a rain event. Fortunately we had a 30Minute thunderstorm and it passed that test with flying colors.I left it set up for 4 days, there is no risk of mildew from what I see.There are lots of tents available and some look pretty impressive but after watching on line reviews. Some turned out to be of very poor quality and a few filled with water in just steady rain.This Coleman has none of those issue and I would have no p qualms about taking this for a camping weekend.A good buy!

I have camped in this tent two and a half times, and I love it. I say two and a half, because my third trip in the tent, I was forced out of it in the middle of Tropical Depression Nate up in Big Meadows Campground in Shenandoah National Park this past October (2017). It was holding its own for most of it, but eventually the rings came lose from the tent stakes and one tent stake came up out of the ground, and I had to flee my humble abode and dive into my parents' van! I didn't have the stakes driving all the way into the ground, because I wasn't expecting a freaking tropical storm, plus we were in high elevation. I think it would have held its own if I had driven the stakes all the way down. As soon as I got out of it, within 5 minutes, the thing turned into a kite and sailed right into my parents' van. LOL! The first camping trip in this tent (May 2017), it withstood a severe thunderstorm at Fall Creek Falls, TN, and I stayed dry. There was a tiny puddle of water around that small zipper hole in the bottom corner, but I didn't have it zipped closed, so that could be why. The second camping trip (September 2017) at Panther Creek State Park, TN was perfect weather, and the tent was marvelous. I especially love the little zipper in the bottom corner where you can run an electrical cord through it. I like being able to hang a camping light in the top of the tent. During the camping trip with Tropical Depression Nate, my rain fly got ripped pretty badly. I think I'll be able to patch it. I hate to throw away a perfectly good tent because I can't buy a replacement rainfly. This tent is so easy to set up, too. If you have two people, it goes quickly! If you set it up alone, it's mildly cumbersome, but easily doable. A queen-sized air mattress will fit in here, but it takes up ALL the space. You can store some very small things along the sides, but no suitcases or anything. Since I'm always in mine alone, I use a twin air mattress, and that leaves plenty of room for stuff and to step in and out of the tent. I will say that, once again, the tent bag is too small. I thought I rolled that tent up tight, but not tight enough. The bag split when I tried to zip it. I think those little green ties they include might have been helpful to keep the rolled tent from expanding. But they could make a slightly bigger bag, too. It's forever a problem with tents. I have included pictures with the queen-sized and twin-sized air mattresses.

This tent saved my boyfriend and I on a camping trip that went completely awry. For info, this was the first time for both of us camping on our own, first time using this tent, and we camped in June at Bennett Spring, MO for 3 nights. It is very compact for travel (2 1/2' x 5"), and I was able to get it back in the bag upon take down. Setting the first time took about 15-20 minutes, take down less than 10. I was surprised to find such a cheap tent with Coleman's name on it, and it was worth every penny.I'll start with the not so great things. First and foremost, the style of the tent has the corners pulled SO taught when it is set that there are teeny tiny needle point-sized holes in the corners. It lets in nothing but rain, but even then it's not that much. I'll touch on that when I get to the good things. Also, the zipper protector is completely necessary and helpful, it can just be a huge pain because it gets snagged and caught in the zipper a lot. I was able to stand up almost completely in the center of the tent (I'm a little more than 5') but my boyfriend could not. We did not use an air mattress, but there was plenty of room still with the pool floaties we slept on, a huge sterilite container, our box fan, and more. Speaking of our box fan, the weather was complete garbage on our trip. It was HOT; the heat index got up to 110. This tent has tons of ventilation- even a little vent in the bottom on the back. We definitely needed the box fan any time we spent more than 2-3 minutes in the tent, and it was going all night. One of the nights did get down to 60, and I was shivering. So it's safe to say that this is not a flaw of the tent, just more of a tip for fellow campers. When it's hot, it's hot!I will now begin raving about this tent. Our first night, we got severe thunderstorms and torrential downpour for almost eight hours straight. We stayed completely dry!! I was convinced that it was going to leak or at least start seeping through the walls eventually, but it didn't! Some water did get through the aforementioned corners, but I was able to use a hand towel to dry it up and the towel was still mostly dry. Very impressive. The next day, the tent had a few hours to dry in the sun before more severe weather came through. After the previous night, we didn't want to be around for it, so we left camp for the afternoon. More torrential downpour, this time tornadic weather, so there was a LOT of very strong winds. In all seriousness, this storm literally took down a tree and several branches on the campground campus, but not our tent!!! Out of 7 steaks, all but one was torn out of the ground, and the tent had been shoved forward about 1 foot and was leaning about 65 degrees forward. The tent was easy to set up (we did do a full trial run before leaving), but the very rocky Missouri soil made it extremely difficult to get the steaks in well at the campsite. The one steak that was in the ground still was the one we were actually able to get in well, so I can't say if the steaks were ripped out strictly because of wind, or if they were set more poorly than we thought. I would still recommend different, stronger steaks, because the ones that come with are flimsy. I purchased 4 MSR Groundhog steaks that we used on our tarp underneath and they were unphased by the storms. Needless to say, all our stuff inside was safe and dry!!!!!! The corners did their infamous leak again, but I dried it up just the same as last time (and then we reset the tent in the dark by flashlight!). No poles broken, nothing ripped, no leaks that weren't the corners. I will add that we used those interlocking foam mats on the floor of our tent to make it a little more comfy, and upon pulling them up when we were leaving, there was moisture that we are assuming was from the corners, but don't know for sure. We were on a very slight downhill, and the moisture was only under a small portion of the front three mats. Thinking it was just the water from the corners rolling forward. Everything else was fine and dry.I have photos of it set, but have to post them later. I am including a video of the storm from inside during the first night. I know that being in a tent amplifies how rain sounds, but it was truly as bad as it sounds in the video.Edit to add: we did no waterproofing on our tent.

Purtroppo l'oggetto non mi è mai arrivato, non posso recensirne la qualità. Ad ogni modo sistema di verifica del problema e di rimborso ottimi!! Ho riavuto tutti i soldi in tempi ragionevolissimi!! Grazie!!

La tenda è ampia, arieggiata e facile da montare. La finestra posteriore è utile.Molto soddisfatto della tenda coleman 4
