Coleman - Instant Cabin (10-Person)

We have had the coleman cabin tent for ~5 years or so. It is reliable and comfortable, we have slept in it in torrential rain, high heat, ~34 degree nights with frost developing on it; all of that has left it with no damage and solid water repelling still after all of that happening on multiple trips. The front porch feature with the rain fly overhang has been rly cool when we wanna avoid rain/bugs but still wanna chill at the campsite. I will say that it goes on sale sometimes and I think Dunham’s has it for a bit cheaper sometimes. But it is honestly one of the best tents I’ve ever used. We let friends use it in trips now because we got a gazelle pop up tent after going camping consistently for a few years. But we still love that Coleman, you can’t miss with it really.

I have the Coleman cabin tent, we’ve had it for at least 5 years now. We camp a lot, and bought rec land where we left the tent up all summer. It’s still in fantastic condition! I don’t think I’ll ever need to get another tent.

We got a Coleman Cabin for our family of 6. The screened in porch with a floor is probably the best thing ever.

We camp a lot and I still get a Coleman or similar. For car camping. My kid or dogs ends up doing something stupid so I don’t want an expensive one. A $100 tent lasts us years. I suggest a cabin style tho.

Had the Coleman Cabin tent for about 5 years and was solid. What finally did it in were 70mph gusts at Joshua Tree (still have wind PTSD from that lol). And the CORE tents from Costco are legit too.

I have the cabin tent as well - love the room/ability to stand up straight in it. I didn't initially love that the rainfly doesn't entirely cover the sides, but I had it set up during a crazy storm and had no water come in it. Really nicely designed

If weight and bulk isn’t an issue - which I guess carrying two cots prolly isn’t… Coleman’s pop up cabin tent is 👌

I have the coleman version of the first tent, not blackout. I have used it to take little kids camping and it works well. Just mind the fact the footprint of such a large tent may be hard to fit into sites.

I would recommend a Coleman Instant Cabin. 4 person or 6 person. Make sure you get the rain fly accessory. I have used this tent in all conditions including heavy snow and it’s surprisingly durable for the cost. I’m 6’4” and can stand up in it. https://www.coleman.com/tents-canopies/tents-by-size/6-person-instant-cabin/SAP_2157803.html?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=oe_col_DTCSearch_2024&utm_term=conversion&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAD0GYNrORZoDaJ5GCrNIcIWJ13RZc&gclid=Cj0KCQiAu8W6BhC-ARIsACEQoDBPykcFSxwrB7SB-OJ7JRGrplMf_e2pFKKYiHMkRC7Dpc9WNorqo60aAlACEALw_wcB&actionPoint=Show

I have a Coleman instant up cabin tent and it’s completely waterproof. I suspect your tent is flawed and should be returned

I got this for my winter tent. And at this point it’s my everything tent except for the middle of ca summer

I've never had a CORE tent, but Coleman and Kelty have both worked well in the past for car camping. The Coleman "instant cabin" would probably be an easier setup, but not much easier, and at cost of some sturdiness. Coleman Dark Room and Kelty Daydreamer are also neat; they're designed to black out sunlight, so the material is a bit heavier... and yeah, you can sleep in past dawn much more easily.

Smaller then my 10 man Coleman.

I’ve had this tent since 2018 and used it probably 70-90 times. It’s been great. Only reason I’ve more recently stopped using it is we got the larger version of the same tent that’s been just as good. I’m sure there’s higher quality brands that people will recommend, but it’s been great overall.

I don’t have this specific tent but a similar 10 person Coleman and it’s great for 2 adults and 2 kids, with a good amount of space between beds so we can have luggage or hang out if it’s raining. If it’s just two people it’s a really big tent but if you want a lot of extra room, it’s great. Our setup was done with 1 person and it went up in about 15 mins.

I've had a Coleman 10p tent for around 13 years now and it's still going strong!

I have a new 10p Coleman that I just got to replace our old, similar Coleman cabin tent and I love it. The old one held up for years of abuse and I kind of just wanted to treat us to a shiny new one, the older could still be used for years to come. The one feature that I LOVE and this one doesn't have is the hinged swinging door. It's a huge game changer for kids going in and out of the tent non stop. Otherwise, I'm sure this tent is awesome and the dark tech sounds fabulous too!

Oh this one I have covered. Taking two young kids camping solo for years as my wife doesn't like to camp. Colman instant paired with cots. It has poles always attached and sets up like an easy up. Realistically I have it up in less than 5 minutes even with the kids helping and then we can play. I learned the most important factor to look at is easy. Not what's the best or the most sturdy. Nope what's quick and easy that way you actually use it.
