A subreddit for campers concerned more about the act of camping and less concerned about hiking long distances or light gear. Illumiline™ reflective guy lines are more visible so you don’t get tripped up if you need to take a walk at night. Inside, there’s enough room to stretch out on a queen-sized airbed. I tried to make coleman ice chest sure that the zippers were protected by this yellow rain cover thing on the outside, but it seems to be soaked with water, and made the leaking worse. For weather resistance, I looked at rain and wind protection. The divider extends all the way to the floor, but there are pretty big gaps at the sides of the divider.
See for example this Coleman Queen size camping bed, a tool from the same brand. This tent pops into shape in under five minutes and only needs one person to set it up. What’s more, it offers two storage pockets that are roomy enough to fit a wallet, a phone, an e-reader, a couple of headlamps, and even a mini children’s audio player and headphones. In addition to stale air, the sealed tent holds moisture in like a sponge.
You might want to check this Red Canyon 8 tent from the same brand, with almost 16 square meters of floor area, or this WeatherMaster 6 with a large screen room. The packed size is not so great indeed, but here too, you would use the car in any case, so the 47 inches (120 cm) of the packed length may not be such a big deal. Everything is fine with this tent as long as you do not have long spells of rain.
This will put your mind at rest at least regarding the roof. The one presented here is 14 x 10 ft; the other is 14 x 8 ft and as I understand it comes with the rain fly. But the 14 x 10 version also exists as an option with the accessory fly included. So do not get confused if you see different descriptions coleman ice chest on the Internet. The Coleman Skylodge blew the competition away and offered not only a quick and easy one-person set up, it offered the most comfortable wilderness lodging of all the tents we tried. Unzip a window and you expose the screens, which are angled toward the sky, to the rain falling down.
Top position overall goes to the Red Canyon made by Coleman. It is also the winner of the Largest Category It makes an ideal choice for families looking for a great tent on a budget. Bought two air beds, both lost air in a matter of a few hours. But the only problem is the plastic joints break and are hard to replace. I had one joint break which happened to be a corner joint and no parts were available and that they would be back orders for over a month.
