Coleman Skydome Tent with 5 Minute Setup, 2/4/6/8-Person Weatherproof Tent with Rainfly & Carry Bag, 20% More Headroom Than Traditional Canopies

My husband and I set this up in our dining room today - just to get a feel for its size, check for any tears, broken zippers, or issues with poles. First of all, it’s huge! As a family of 5, we wanted something large enough for a comfortable camping weekend. My husband and daughter backpack and have tiny, lightweight tents for that purpose - this is NOT that! It took just under 20 minutes for my husband to open it and set it up for the first time; it was pretty simple and I imagine would go much quicker when the two of us set it up together. The quality seems nice and my kids are excited to use it.

needed a bigger tent and this was great, standing headroom for being tall. very easy to set up, strong too. used it for about 40 nights last summer in Canada. gave us lots of room inside so we were not close to walls when bears would roam by. room for all of our gear too (non food) we added a long cord on to inside door zippers so easy to find in the dark when zippered shut

I ordered the tent in October. I finally got to use it in December. For the most part it is a good tent. It is roomy and has acceptable head room. The set-up instructions leave a lot to be desired. Someone inexperienced with tentage might have trouble. Like most Coleman tents the tent pegs are insufficient for any application outside of your lawn. The biggest problem with the tent is the storage bag is too small and it already ripped after the third time I stored it. The seams have seam tape, and I assume they will not leak. However, I cannot attest to that since I haven't used it in the rain. I was able to set it up and tear it down by myself, but I have been camping with a variety of tentage for over 60 years. It would be fairly easy to set up for two people once they figured out the procedure. I give it 4 stars because for the price point it is fairly well made.

Great value for the money. A simple 2 person tent (we all know to take the number of people a tent is SUPPOSED to be for and divide by two - no way 4 people can comfortably spend a night in this tent) that sets up very quickly. We have camped during a small bit of rain; but the rainfly worked to keep the tent completely dry inside. Two single cots and enough gear for two people fit inside. This tent has been on a few weekend Cub Scout camping trips and has served its purpose very well.

Last year I decided I wanted to start camping. I had not been camping since I was a teen w/my parents decades ago. I wanted to get into the hobby cheap, but not so cheap as to ruin the experience. Just to see if I really would enjoy it or if the nostalgia would wear off fast. I used this tent several times this year and don't regret it one bit. In the pros column: * Plenty of space for a single person. I was able to fit a camping cot, my camping chair, and a 25 gallon bin (as a nightstand) in the tent with enough room to move around. It was snug, but comfortable. * The tent held up to moderate rain on two of my trips - no water got inside. Though there was little wind to drive the rain. * The mostly netting body with the rain fly providing privacy meant that the tent remained relatively cool. But it was still comfortable down into the mid-30s F. And the cons: * The provided stakes were not of the best quality and were a challenge to use in the very rocky sites I went to in the West. * While the tent could remain cool, in direct sunlight on a desert day, it would not. The lone window on the front door meant there was little chance of a cross breeze helping matters much. * Setting up as a solo camper did take some time - definitely not the 5 minutes as advertised. Closer to 15 minutes. * The domed walls do cut down on the usable floor space inside the tent when not sleeping/resting directly on the ground. * Trying to get the tent to fit into the original, machine packed bag, is an exercise in futility. I simply bought a 25 gal. tote to carry the tent, rain fly and ground tarp in. Honestly, for a year's worth of usage to see if I really was going to keep camping, this was the ideal tent. A lot of the negatives on the list are more due to the style of camping I intended to use vs. the style of camping the tent targets. This is more of a heavier, multi-person, backpacking tent whereas I set out to car-camp as a solo person. I have since replaced this tent with a far more expensive, far heavier, and roomier tent for my 2nd season. But this tent fulfilled it's purpose. It let me know camping is something I am enjoying for the hobby it is, and not the nostalgia of years past.

We bought this Coleman tent to prepare for an upcoming camping trip in a few weeks, and as first-time tent owners, we weren’t sure what to expect. Let me just say, we’re so impressed! We did a trial run in our bedroom to make sure we could set it up, and it was super easy. The instructions were clear, and it took us less than 10 minutes to get it fully pitched. The tent feels sturdy and well-made, with plenty of space inside. The ventilation is great, and it even looks nice! We feel so much more confident heading into our trip knowing we have a reliable, easy-to-use tent. If you’re new to camping like us, this is a perfect choice to start with.

Works great, better setup with two people working together.

This is really a 4.5 star review. I bought this in used-like new condition (which it was) so I can't comment on the price. Good tent, easy setup, excellent headroom with the wider dome (I'm 6' with shoes on), nice interior shade during sunny days so sleeping in is possible. My only real complaint is that the canopy fully covers three sides, so you can't have a cross breeze without removing the canopy. It got pretty stifling during the day. I imagine it will be more comfortable in cooler camping conditions than I have used it so far.

Ótima

Es muy bonita, me gustaron mucho sus colores, es súper amplia y eso la hace muy cómoda, llegó antes de tiempo y pude salir el fin de semana a probarla, excelentes materiales, los anclajes son de material más grueso que la mayoría y no se doblan, es muy fresca por la tarde y tibia por la noche, excelente producto, es Coleman!!

Es una casa de campaña bastante funcional y resistente, la recomiendo.

Broke during the very first camping trip with a few minutes of stronger wind. Also leaked in moderate intensity rain from the stitches near the front where the Coleman wording is proudly presented. Spacious and easy to pitch are perhaps the only good things I could think about.

La tienda está bien, sin embargo, le falta uno de los vientos y hace que no sienta del todo bien. es mi única queja, pero a la vez es importante cuando estás en situación de viento fuerte.
