Hey guys! If you found this review helpful, and you’re planning to buy this Coleman tent, please consider supporting this channel by using my affiliate link to Amazon here: amzn.to/3r7absS There's absolutely NO cost to you at all, but I get a small commission from Amazon if you buy anything through my link. Your support is what allows me to continue buying and testing gear like this! 😊 🙏 Thank you!! Also, a special thank you to Kim (@crushedrgb) for the lovely Super Thanks! 🥰 And please ignore the mask in this video! I used to wear it only cos I was camera-shy 😂
Thank you so much for your comment Alex! 😊 I'm really glad that you liked the review and the mattress options, and that I could answer your questions as well 😊
Awesome review! Especially the rain test, which I've heard can be an issue. Definitely needs some water proofing and seam sealer to really make this a good 3 season tent. Possibly a tarp too, to really protect in heavy rain.
Thank you so much! 🥰 I'm really glad that you liked the review and the rain test! And yeahhhh the rain protection is definitely not great haha. I think you're gonna need everything you mentioned to get this properly protected from the rain 😅
Great reviews! I’m a seasoned camper but still usually am the one setting up & tearing down…. So this really appeals to me. I’m 6’ but standing “hunched” is acceptable for slipping on shorts, etc. (I do see that the 6P tents seem to come in higher center points).
Thank you so much Enrique! I'm glad that you like the reviews 😊 Ah instant tents would definitely be a good fit for you, especially if you have to set up and tear down on your own. And yes you're right! The 6P tents are definitely a little taller than the 4P tents, so I recommend those 😊
I’m not a huge Coleman fan but your review is so we’ll done and informative! Thank you Liz for your always entertaining style and meticulous attention to detail! Oh and I saved up and bought an Exped duo mega mat after watching your excellent review and I’m loving it!
Hi James! Thank you so much for your comment and I'm really glad that you're still liking the videos, I really appreciate it 😊 I'll be done with Coleman tents by October, so thank you so much for sticking around during this bombardment of Coleman tents XD And that's wonderful news James! I'm really happy that you've loving the Exped MegaMat!! It's a keeper for sure and I hope that it lasts for many years! 🥰 (Mine has been with me 2+ years and still going strong!)
@@patrickio8084 Hi Patrick, thanks for your question! I won't be reviewing multiple tents from the same brand anymore (like the Coleman series), but the next few series that I have planned after the Best Coleman Tents is the Best Instant Tents, Best Budget Tents under $100, and then the Best 6-Person Tents. :)
@@CampingGuidance Have you considered reviewing canvas tents? Given your attention to detail and growing audience, you might be able to persuade some of these companies to donate in the name of "Customer Research" in exchange for an unbiased review.
@@patrickio8084 Hey Patrick, thanks for the reply 😊 And yes! Canvas tents are in my to-review-list for the future, but they're much too expensive for me to afford now haha. And I might get some sponsorships/donations in the future for canvas tents, but I think my subscriber base is still too small for these sponsorships/donations at the moment. Perhaps next year or the year after! Also, at the moment I'm currently buying all the gear that I review, so I can say anything I want about it, be it positive or negative. I'm a little worried about having to say just positive things if companies donate their canvas tents to me haha. But thank you so much for the suggestion! I'll definitely keep that in mind, it seems popular for sure 😊
Greetings Liz! I commented on how your review inspired me to purchase the Coleman 6p SunDome tent. Now I used your link to purchase the 6p Coleman Instant Cabin tent. I'm going to use it for cooler nights and use a small heater. Thanks again for your thorough reviews they are the Bomb! Your island home is beautiful! ☺🙃
Greetings! 🥰 Oh wow!!! Omg thank youuuu so much for remembering me even after your first purchase. You're so kind and I really appreciate it 🥰 Let me know how it goes! Btw I'm glad you got the 6P cos I have the 4P and it's so short 😅 Aww I hope to put out more reviews this year for sure! ☺
You’re most welcome! I’m really glad that you liked all the info, and thank you so much for all the kind words 😊 let me know how it goes if you have the time! Happy camping next month! 😊
Another great review! Kind of a bummer that it doesn't come with a rain fly included, huh? Oh well. And, don't worry about the mask. It makes you look mysterious 😎 and EVERYONE loves a mystery!😁 Keep up the good work, and be sure to share your new channel when you start posting your outdoor adventures! 👍
Thank you so much Jesse, I'm really glad that you're liking the reviews! 😊 And yeah!! The rainfly really jacks up the price of this tent, and I think it's quite pricey compared to most other Coleman tents! And thank you for the reassurance about the mask! Sorry about those pop up notices about the mask, I sometimes get some hate for it, so I try to make it as clear as possible. Hope it's not too annoying! And yes!! I would definitely share the new channel when I start it, though I don't think it'll be anytime this year. Maybe next year! 😊
You’re on fire! Another great review. Now I know that Sundome 6p is better than the Coleman instant tent. I figured as much as I much preferred the Skydome which is why I gave my mom the instant tent. Now I just have to wait and see how the Carlsbad performs (and any other tent reviews you have coming our way). Keep it up the awesome work!
Thank you so much again Romulus! Really appreciate it 😊 And yeah, I definitely prefer the Sundome over the Instant tent as well!! And it's cheaper too, plus it comes with a rainfly 😂 Btw, which instant tent size do you have? Is it the 4P? And I'll be releasing the Evanston, Carlsbad, Skydome and Sundome 2P before releasing the Best Coleman Tents video! Thank you for sticking around and watching all of them, I really do appreciate it 🥰
Looking forward to all your creative and informative work 😊 I had the 6p version of this instant tent. My brother-in-law told me that with tents you almost always minus 2 people, so if you really want a 4p tent, go with a 6p 😂 the theory has really worked. Between the advice of you two, I think I’ll be just fine lol.
@@romulus7495 Aww thank you so much Romulus! 🥰 And yeah I totally agree with what he said! If you want more space, you can always minus 4 people hahaha. Thank you so much for your support always, I hope I don't let you down! Hahaha still trying to figure out how to do the Best Coleman Tents video haha XD
You make the best tent videos. Do you have anything on SUV tents? Also perhaps mention if they are 3 or 4 season tents and talk about the roof vents. Roof vents are a problem in windy and cold conditions.
Thank you so much James! I'm really glad that you like the tent videos! 😊 Sadly I don't have a car, so I won't be able to post anything on SUV tents or rooftop tents anytime in the near future :( And noted on the roof vents! I actually don't have experience camping outside of summer though, so that's why I never mentioned anything about 3/4 person tents or cold conditions haha. It's always summer where I am! But I'll definitely try to keep it in mind. Thanks for all your feedback 😊
Your reviews are incredible!! I want to put up a tent inside my house and was leaning towards this one. The deal breaker is that it does not have any EPorts where I can run some cords into it. Do u have any suggestions on what tent I shall buy. I am pretty limited to a 4 person size and prefer the cabin style over the some. Thank you!!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate all your comments and support on my channel! 🥰 Ah okayyy. 4P cabin with e-port - the Caddis Rapid 4! It's a higher-end tent than this Coleman, but has everything you need in a tent - 4p, instant, cabin power port. I think most Core Equipment instant tents tend to have power ports too, weird that Coleman's instant doesn't. But actually do you need an e-port for indoor camping? That's actually to create a tight seal on your cords so that bugs don't get in while you run a cord into your tent. You could maybe run the cords through the door or something? Or maybe the overhead vent! Just spitballing here though 😅
Thank you so much Margaret! I'm really glad that I could provide you with the details you needed! 😊 And I would definitely recommend the 6P over the 4P for sure! If you have any questions, you can always drop a comment here and I'll get back to you 😊
Thank you so much! 🥰 I'm really glad that you liked the review. And yeah I do trust Coleman tents for the most part too, except maybe in super heavy rain and super bad weather 😅
@CampingGuidance I hear you😂I was gonna buy a coleman skydome but it wasn't gonna be delivered in time for when I need it so I got Oztrail. Have you seen their products before?
@@empire-classfirenationbatt2691 Ah I see. Thanks for the update! I've heard of Oztrail but I don't have any of their products. If I'm not wrong I think they're only in Australia? I don't think I have access to them where I am 😅 How are you finding it though?
@CampingGuidance yes they're Australian based. I'm actually from South Africa so I had it shipped here. I got it just yesterday and set it up. Nothing to complain about so far. The quality is good and it seems sturdy though I'll know for sure once I've stayed in it.
@@empire-classfirenationbatt2691 Ah I see! Did it cost a lot to ship it to South Africa? And thanks so much for the update! I could look into that in the future too 😁 Let me know if you'd recommend it after staying in it!
I'm thinking about getting this one too. You mentioned the mesh keeps larger bugs out, but I don't want smaller ones to get in either . Lol. What do you think? Do they make this same tent in a blackout version as well? Thanks again! Great job on videos
Hi Mike! Thank you for another comment, really appreciate you watching my videos 😊 About the mesh, it's not no-see-um mesh, so if no-see-ums are a big issue for you where you plan to camp, you might want to get another tent with no-see-um mesh. This Coleman mesh is personally fine for me, cos I only have mosquitoes and other somewhat larger bugs where I live, but I think ultimately it depends on what type of bugs will be around your campsite. Sorry about that, I probably should have made that clearer hahaha. I hope this answered your question! If not, feel free to shoot me another question and I'll do my best to help 😊 And yes! They do make this tent in a blackout version (and I love Coleman's blackout fabric), but the blackout version of this tent only comes in a 10-person size. I have another review on that here if you wanna check it out: ua-cam.com/video/hltrCh0eYvY/v-deo.html
@@KrazyKramer You're most welcome Mike! I'm always happy to help you out whenever I can 😊 And it means a lot that you like the channel, thank you so much! I'm thinking of doing more camping gear (apart from tents) starting next year hopefully! 😊
I just found your channel and enjoy them. Which 6 man tent would you recommend? Mostly, I'd be camping alone but sometimes with my wife. Looking for rain resistance and ease of set up. Thank you. Liked and subbed.
@Moondog9322 Hi there! Thank you so much for your comment and I'm really glad that you enjoy the videos on this channel 😊 When will you be getting your 6 man tent? I'm actually a couple weeks away from finishing my Best 6-Person Tent video series, so I think that will answer your question more thoroughly than I ever could in a single comment 😊
@@Moondog9322 Awesome! I'm currently working on The North Face Wawona 6 (review should be out within 1-2 days), and that's the final 6p tent that I have. The rest have already been uploaded. I'm hoping to get the Best 6P Tent video out 2 weeks after 😊
Where did you get the rainfly? I bought this tent not knowing it didn't have one and now I can't find one available. I'm only finding them available for the 6 person and 8 person version
Hey Jason! I just got it off Amazon at the same time I got this tent. oh man yeah it seems that the 4P isn't available on Amazon anymore. Maybe you could buy it directly from Coleman?
It’s still available at this time directly from Coleman. I hope you can get it from there! 😊 but even if you don’t, it still wasn’t great in heavy rain anyway tbh 😅
@@CampingGuidance thank you for checking on them for me. I actually got this tent for free because Amazon refunded my order because it was lost in shipping for over 1 months. And as a free wasn't enough Amazon also issued me a $100 Amazon credit. So I actually got paid $100 and got the tent free.... So if I have to come out of pocket for the rainfly and do some waterproofing that will be fine. I have two other tents that are pretty good so this is just kind of an extra.
@@jdreynolds29 Oh wow I've never been issued a credit and a refund at the same time. I never knew Amazon to be that generous 😅 And yeah it'll be a decent tent after some waterproofing work! Did you manage to get the rainfly from coleman?
Omgggg Kim thank you soooo much again for another generous Super Thanks!! I was so shocked my jaw actually dropped hahaha. You're the sweetest! I really appreciate all your constant support 🥰
@Tired Old Man Aww thank you so much for saying that! It really means a lot 😊 And that's hopefully the plan for the channel in the future! Gotta slowly build it up first 😊 Glad you liked this review! 😊
hace unas semana hice mi pedido y me llego hace dos semana pero me llego rota en una de las patitas alguien podría decirme donde puedo conseguir piezas para repararla ya que vivo en república dominicana y es difícil la devolución
Hey Rubiia, oh man I'm so sorry to hear about your experience :( I've only ever repaired fiberglass poles, and not thick steel poles such as these. And I think because instant tent poles are pre-attached, they're actually harder to repair if they break. Is it the pole that broke, or something attached to the pole?
@@CampingGuidance What came broken is the plastic material that is glued to the bottom post that is tied to the ground as it is broken, it does not support itself and the post is left out. If I could, I would send you a photo.
@K'Charles I think so! Decent quality tent all around. But not when camping in rain though. I'd recommend the 6P over this one though, think that one will be more worth it. 😊
Hi Jason thanks for the input! It certainly is! But there's always the option of sealing the seams/spraying with waterproofing spray if you don't mind 😊
Hey there! Sorry about the mask, I used to wear it because I was camera shy and didn't want my face to appear in the videos hahaha 😬 I think I put a note at the beginning of the video explaining that (plus a few others in between as well)! 😊
Hi Khalid! Hmm I bought this tent off Amazon for maybe $140 in the past? I can't remember correctly but the price is always fluctuating, so it's best to check Amazon for the latest price. You could be lucky and there could be a sale running! 😁

@@jdreynolds29 Oh wow I've never been issued a credit and a refund at the same time. I never knew Amazon to be that generous 😅 And yeah it'll be a decent tent after some waterproofing work! Did you manage to get the rainfly from coleman?
Thanks!
Omgggg Kim thank you soooo much again for another generous Super Thanks!! I was so shocked my jaw actually dropped hahaha. You're the sweetest! I really appreciate all your constant support 🥰
Excellent video!!!
Thank you so much! 🥰
I'm pretty sure mine didn't come with the rain fly
Hi Winston, I actually had to buy the rainfly separately, I think I mentioned it in the pros and cons of this video 😊 Hope this helps!
you should do this for a living. thank you!
@Tired Old Man Aww thank you so much for saying that! It really means a lot 😊 And that's hopefully the plan for the channel in the future! Gotta slowly build it up first 😊 Glad you liked this review! 😊
Great review! Thank you
@tbonz You're most welcome! I'm glad that you liked the review 😊
That is why you install a tarp over the entire tent before the rain starts
Hahaha yes you're right! 🥰 But that sort of defeats the purpose of getting an instant tent I would think hahaha
Great review.
@FiveFiveSix-SevenSixTwo Thank you so much! I'm glad that you liked the review 😊
hace unas semana hice mi pedido y me llego hace dos semana pero me llego rota en una de las patitas alguien podría decirme donde puedo conseguir piezas para repararla ya que vivo en república dominicana y es difícil la devolución
Hey Rubiia, oh man I'm so sorry to hear about your experience :( I've only ever repaired fiberglass poles, and not thick steel poles such as these. And I think because instant tent poles are pre-attached, they're actually harder to repair if they break. Is it the pole that broke, or something attached to the pole?
@@CampingGuidance What came broken is the plastic material that is glued to the bottom post that is tied to the ground as it is broken, it does not support itself and the post is left out. If I could, I would send you a photo.
Ah, thanks for the reply Rubiia. You can send me a photo via email: campingguidance@gmail.com
I'll do my best to help you out!
Excelente análisis!!
thank you so much! 🥰
Is it worth it?
@K'Charles I think so! Decent quality tent all around. But not when camping in rain though. I'd recommend the 6P over this one though, think that one will be more worth it. 😊
Water intrusion is a deal breaker
Hi Jason thanks for the input! It certainly is! But there's always the option of sealing the seams/spraying with waterproofing spray if you don't mind 😊
Pretty weak that Coleman didn’t include a mesh gear loft.
Ah yeah, that's true. It was definitely lacking in pockets too :(
Coleman needs to improve the tent from reviews like yours … better rain fly, guy loops go guy out sagging walls
any tent is a complete failure if it leaks
Haha a lot of the cheaper tents tend to leak!
I am glad you afford the $800 water proof tents. For us poor people this tent is a great option for camping
@@CampingGuidanceCan it hold 10% rain without the rain fly?
why are you wearing as mask outside? :)
Hey Dave! It should say somewhere at the beginning of the video it's cos I'm camera shy 😅
WITH, are you wearing a mask?
Hey there! Sorry about the mask, I used to wear it because I was camera shy and didn't want my face to appear in the videos hahaha 😬 I think I put a note at the beginning of the video explaining that (plus a few others in between as well)! 😊
Mask? WTF?
I don’t get the mask. You’re outside.
Hey Eric! That's just to hide my face from the camera hahaha 😆
She's literally said it at 0:29 can you not read?
@@chuckalakatoob I don't know why so many folks miss that. But thanks for having my back! 🥰
a mask? really?
Sorry about that! Was just covering my face from the camera cos I didn't want anyone to see it, it should say so a few times throughout the video :)
@@CampingGuidance WE LIKE SEEING PRETTY FACES! 😘
@@whatwewantAItodo Aww I never thought I looked pretty hence the mask hahaha but thanks for the vote of confidence 🥰
What's the prize.
Hi Khalid! Hmm I bought this tent off Amazon for maybe $140 in the past? I can't remember correctly but the price is always fluctuating, so it's best to check Amazon for the latest price. You could be lucky and there could be a sale running! 😁
Amazing review. Thank you for all the details
Hey Amanda! Hey Chris! Thanks so much for the lovely comment, I’m really glad you guys liked the details 🥰
