Coleman Sundome Camping Tent with Rainfly, 2/3/4/6 Person Tent Sets Up in 10 Mins, Weatherproof Shelter for Camping, Festivals, Backyard, Sleepovers, & More

Great tent for general camping. Given the quality of the materials and finished product, this is a great value. First use was in 50 degree F and 50% humidity. The tent handled those conditions no problem. The air flow can be controlled somewhat and felt just right without tying anything closed or otherwise trying to stop the natural air flow within the tent. Obviously, the tent itself has no insulation, but the temperature inside was very comfortable given the above mentioned conditions. I can see going down another 10-20 degrees F and being totally fine with this tent and standard sleeping bags. Below that you will probably need additional tarps to put over it to block air flow and warmer than standard sleeping bags. I cannot attest to the rain resistance of the tent, however, it looks like it will handle light to medium showers with relative ease. The floor is tarp material with a fair amount of water resistance, and makes up the lower 4-6 inches of the walls. From there up is standard tent material you would find on many other tents at this price point. The mesh makes up a great deal of the upper portion of the tent, and all of that is covered by the rain fly when it is on. The rain fly itself is the same material as the tent walls. Air flows between the rain fly and the mesh sections. You can close that up to some degree to control the air flow. Additionally, there is a vent on the back wall near the floor, but high enough to not be a splashing water during rain problem. There is also a very tiny zippered opening on the front wall to bring in an extension cord. There are also two zippered, large windows. One on the back wall, one on the door itself. The D door is well thought out, and features a flap to keep rain out on the lower half. Setup is a breeze, even for the novice. It is very intuitive and straightforward. You have three poles to assemble, two for the tent and one for the rain fly. Slide them through, clip, and plug in at the ends. Thats pretty much it. There are some little velcro straps here and there to further secure the poles to the tent and rain fly. Put the third pole in the rain fly and then attached to the tent with the straps with clips. Tie down as needed, and you are done. There is also a floor mat for the entrance in the bag. This tent will stand on its own and does not absolutely need to be staked or tied to something. Its optional. Recommend you buy some additional parachute cord and maybe some heavier-duty stakes, as is pretty much always the case with every single tent on the market. Pack up is also a breeze. With minimal effort I was able to get it all in the box it came in and then into the carry bag. You do not have to use that box, and you can discard it and just use the carry bag. I like the squarish dimensions, so I kept the box. Otherwise, it will be more of a gym bag when packed. At any rate, plenty of room in there for additional stakes, parachute cord. If you manage to pack it tight, you could even fit a floor tarp in there (not included). 4 people is actually possible with this tent, but not with gear. Maybe some backpacks, but thats about it. You can fit two full size air mattresses, or a queen plus a twin. It will be tight either way, and double stack air mattress will make it even tougher. But, it is possible. A full plus twin is more realistic, and there will be some room for gear. We just use a full and have tons of room for gear, coolers, etc. Overall, fantastic tent at this price. Love the navy color scheme, and worth the extra couple bucks. I would not call this a hiking tent, as it weighs over 10 pounds. More if you buy heavier stakes, additional floor tarp, etc. But, you could make it work for hiking if you share the loads. For the occasional camper, this is perfect.

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

When choosing a tent always remove one person of the allowance of people that the tent recommends. this gives you more room and area for you bag's. 2. Choose a tent that bet fits you size and needs. I'm 6'4" so I like space for me to stand and a place for my camp cot. So the 6 Person Sundome with a 6ft center height, a 4 Person Sundome has a 4' 11" center height. The 3 Person Sundome has a 4'4" center height. The 2 Person Sundome has a 4' center height. 3. These tents are simple a easy to set up. Take your time when setting up. Speed will usually result in something broken. While setting up remember as much as it is sunny out there your tent rain fly has the UV protect built in. So as much as its nice to have you tent open to the stars its a must to keep the rain fly on the tent during hot / sunny weather. Without the rain fly the tent will break down faster. When placing your rain fly on make sure you staked down all the points of the rain fly. When you have staked down they give your tent the proper flow of air which keeps your tent cool during hot or cold weather. 4. These tents are what is considered to be 3 season only which means Spring, Summer, Fall if you are looking for a tent that is winter or snow you want a tent with the rain fly to come all the way down to the ground. Like the ( Coleman - Hooligan; 3 - Tent ). 5. These are not considered to be backpacking tents but many people have used them. If you want to use it for Backpacking separate the load with someone else. 6. The tent pegs are metal which work fine for most of the time, but better to pick up some heavy duty tent pegs which take more punishment in harder ground. 7. Bug spray doesn't belong on or inside the tent. It will remove the WeatherTec protection on your ten with would allow your ten to leak. 8. Remember Think about where you plan on going tent camping. Most State Parks only offer a 12' X 12' Tent space so it you have a tent that is 14' L X 8' W X 6' H that means your tent will be 2 ft over the camp spot. 9. Warranty is one year but my 3 man Sundome tent has lasted me 12 years. It will last longer if you keep it clean and well maintained. If something breaks understand Amazon will replace it under first 30 days after that you would go directly to Coleman. The Poles are made of fiberglass so remember they aren't designed for trashing on or playing with. Coleman does sell extra poles which is always nice to keep extra in case of a breakage or accident. 10. Coleman Warranty info is : The Coleman Company, Inc. Make sure you register you tent.

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.

I've had the 7' x 9', 4-person (always cut that number in half, BTW!) for 7 years now. I use it about a half-dozen times a year or so for 3 to 5 nights each time, so I'm guessing over 150 nights so far. As everyone says, easy setup, nice gear pockets, etc. This tent has withstood some incredible storms, from light rain to deluges, and even some horizontal rain & high winds. Of course there will be a little water coming in from horizontal rain, but it was minimal, and that rarely happens. Even with the normal HEAVY downpours and strong winds, there was no leakage. However, after 7 years I may have to replace it. It is still in good shape, but over time, for some reason, sometimes the rainfly will sag and contact the screen ceiling, and water will drip from that contact area. It can be a lot in a heavy rain. But that is the only place. I am experimenting with taking up the slack in the rainfly's elastic attachment bands. After 7 seasons, they're a little stretched out, so that may be the problem. I'm trying other things, too, like varying the length/angle of the fly's guy lines. We'll see. I'm going to order another identical tent since this type has held up impressively. I'll keep futzing with the old one, and even if I can't solve the problem of the sagging fly/screen contact, it will still be a great dry-weather extra tent. I can fit a queen air mattress, my 65# dog, luggage, and some gear inside. Last year I upgraded to a cot & I like that. Be sure to put a heavy-duty tarp under the tent floor to reduce abrasion/wear & tear from the ground. I asked Coleman for input on my issue, and they were very responsive and helpful.

We’ve owned the sundown 6 for 2 years and in that time, we have camped for over 70 nights in a variety of conditions. Over one summer alone, we travelled for 6 weeks across 27 states and 2 provinces, camping the entire way. Here are the pros and cons we discovered along the way. 1. It held up through some massive rain storms. For the record, we always spray our tents, and especially the seams, with silicone at the start of a camping season. Additionally, we managed to squeeze 2 queen sized air mattresses into the tent, and then shared that space between 5 people. We just fit in width, but it was naturally difficult to keep all blankets, pillows and even the corner of the mattress out of contact with the side wall. Experienced campers know that contact=leaks in a rain. Despite these constraints, the tent kept us dry throughout some intense and long rains, with no more than 1/4 cup worth of water pooling in a corner where we have contact issues. In fact, our sundown 4 kept my husband and son dry on a group trip where many others had to bail because their expensive tents were leaking extensively. 2. It sets up and take down fairly easily. If at least two corners of the tent are staked before lifting the poles, a single person can set it up. On our road trip we were constantly setting up and taking down our tent, and it didn’t become cumbersome at all. 3. In hot climates the tent is very airy, however the mesh roof makes for cold nights when sleeping in cold environments (aka Yellowstone in July). 4 I do not like how low the mesh roof comes down on two sides of the tent. If the rain fly is staked our tightly, then neighbors from the side can see in (a little bit) through the mesh. Think of the small gap between rainfly and mesh as similar to an awkwardly placed gap in a public bathroom stall door. One can’t see much—but it’s enough to make a person standing or sitting to get changed a little uncomfortable. That means that I had to lay down to get changed. It was also enough for my pesky son to threaten his sister that he might peek in...siblings. 5. The tent has held up in some fairly windy weather. However, all guys lines do attach to the rain fly, so it can make stargazing in windy weather difficult. We opted to sleep sans rain fly in Badlands National Park. The wind battered the sides of the tent, which simultaneously battered me! If you like to sleep under the stars, be prepared to make your own guy lines. 6. It actually folds into the bag...a couple half folds and a triple fold before rolling (fold it right and there is even a little room to spare). 7. It has held up under a lot of activity without replacing any parts. However, year 3 ( which might be equivalent to year 10 for once-a-year campers) and the zipper is starting to split at the top. Not bad for the price of the tent. We plan to camp around the NW this summer for another 6 weeks and have decided to go with a larger 10x14 tent to actually fit those 2 queen mattresses. But we have stashed this tent under the floor in our van just in case. Many National Park sites can’t guarantee more than a 12x12 pad, and this tent folds up small enough to be a back-up. With a 10x10 footprint, it can go anywhere.

Great tent. I set it up in my backyard, to give it a trial run (and seam seal) before taking it out camping. There are pros and cons... Pros: Carry bag - the tent comes neatly packed in a carry bag, with tent, poles, rain fly, ground stakes, door mat, and instructions. Setup - Easy. Set up by myself, with rain fly, in under 15 minutes. Didn't have to look at the directions. Only suggestion would be to put the word "front" somewhere on the rain fly to indicate which way it goes. However, a quick glance at the packaging will tell you. Materials - the tent material seems to be of good quality, and should hold up well when taken care of. The zippers are not heavy duty, but i see no issues with them. The floor is heavy duty tarp material. Screens - the tent has large screen panels on the "ceiling", which makes for a great view when the rain fly is not on. There is an additional window, and screen on the door for extra viewing and airflow. Floor Vent - there is a vent near the rear of the tent, which allows for additional airflow. Cord access - there is a small zippered panel in the front corner, that let's you run an extension cord into the tent. Other "Pros": I got the Navy/Grey tent, and the colors are cool. Got some compliments from the neighbors on it. I like that the rain fly comes with the guy lines already attached. The interior gear pockets are fine, good for holding your phone. Wouldn't stuff them with anything heavy. There is a little "ring" at the center of the ceiling, to hang a small light. While you could technically fit 2 queen air mattresses, I would not. It leaves no floor space for gear. I will put in one mattress, and leave the other half of the tent for my kids Pack n' Play, and gear. It will fit the 3 of us comfortably. However, unless you intend to get cozy, I wouldn't advise this for 4 adults (but it could be done). Cons: Stakes - the stakes are just ok...they are the generic skinny steel ones. I would recommend spending an extra $10 bucks and buy some good ones. Footprint - the tent doesn't come with a footprint, though I imagine this helps keep the cost so low. Not a big deal, I use a tarp anyways. Door Screen - the upper half of the door can be unzipped to reveal the screen window. I really would have liked if the entire door could be screen, not just the top half. I also purchased some Coleman Seam Sealer, and sealed all the seams inside the tent, and the rain fly. Some of the seams are taped, but it's just good practice to spend the time to do this, no matter what brand/cost/etc tent you have. It saves headache down the road. Overall, I'm very pleased with the tent, and the cost. It will work well for short camping trips with a small family, couple, or individual.

I have done so much research on this tent and all other possibilities of tents. I did not have a strict budget when making the purchase so this tent was bought after hours of research. The first day we got it we immediately set it up in the backyard to ensure everything works correctly. I began to spray water repellent and put on the seam sealer. When we tried to get the rainfly on one of the hooks snapped. I was frustrated right away. I immediately called the company. This is the reason they have 5 stars instead of 1. The customer service was superb. The young man who helped me quickly took in all the information and sent me a whole new tent. They do not even expect the old one back. All over the rainfly hook. The shipping did not take long either. They set the expectation it might be three weeks it actually only took one. Using the tent. The set up takes two people. If you have people who know what they are doing with a tent it will take you about 5-10 min to set up. If you are still reading directions it should take you no longer than 30 min. The stakes that came with the tent are okay quality. Since we are not going camping in extreme conditions I will not replace them until I need to. The tent is fairly large. Just big enough for my family. I would not say that this sleeps 6 people comfortably. More like 4. My husband is 6ft5 245 lbs. I am 5ft5 120 lbs and my 7 month son slept in the pack and play. We had enough space for the pack and play his sleeping bag and mine along with a few bags we needed to bring in. If we had 5 people with us there is no way we would all fit into the tent. We slept right next to the water where there was a lot of condensation and it was cold! The tent held up fine against the small amount of water. It had no leaks. I believe there may have been a small shower in the middle of the night as well. We didn't notice since everything was so comfortable. No water entered at all! We also had a good amount of wind and no problems there either since we set the tent up correctly. The zippers are easy to use and work well. The front door zipper sometimes gets caught on the guard for it but it is something you learn to pay attention to. All and all this tent was wonderful and I cannot wait to use it again. The best part was that customer service was so helpful! I would definitely recommend this product for anyone who wants to do car tent trips. This tent is much too heavy for backpacking.

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!!

Cumplió todas mis expectativas, excelente calidad.

Campade för första gången i det i två dagar och det regnade nästan hela tiden. Inte en vattendroppe i tältet, tältet höll tätt, klarade lätt vind också. Är en person i detta stora tält så det kändes som att bo i ett palats. Lite svårt att sätta upp om man är en person med det går om man har tålamod. Det enda jag kan anmärka på är att jag fick klippa av en liten bit tråd som visas på bilden men det sänker inte mitt betyg. Mycket bra tält för pengarna.

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

Quick to setup. Haven’t tried it outdoors yet
