"A good robovac is a life changer. Even a $350 basic S8. It is a great place to start. ... I promise you that you will not be disappointed by a basic S8. It will change your life even if it can't fit under every piece of furniture you own. ... My two S8s just finished vacuuming our entire house in about 46 minutes. ... While my floors were being cleaned, I sat comfortably on our patio in the cool shade with a slight breeze and composed my far too long response to you while sipping a diet soda and relaxing. ... I will have to spend about four minutes maintaining my two S8s. This will be my entire contribution to my home floor cleaning effort for today. Four minutes!"
"Like 500$ these robots are currently the steal of the century ... You can get a mova p10 pro ultra (cannot remove its mops), equivalent to the l40/x40 for 500$ after a discount code"
"I got the Q5 Pro for $139. ... costs $450 less than what I paid for the S6 ... it is the best value option out there imo."

"The roborock I have kicked and smashed with my foot so many times out of anger when it doesn't collaborate, and still he rocks 4-5 yrs later and no broken parts"
"they are extremely durable. ... I’ve got well over 1000 miles out of a pair and they still have grip and the uppers are in great shape"
"I've used them for 1500 miles of multi-day hiking with no issues!"

"Super easy. ... Took about 20-30 minutes"
"sets up in under 3 min including stake out time. ... Take down is just as fast and it fits in its storage bag with out much fuss. ... set up in under 90 seconds 120 if you putting in stakes."

"The footprint of the floor is a square for the T4 hub tent, so you should find the available space easy to work with, even with mattress. ... We have the T4 plus, which is just two squares with a room divider. We use cots and there is room for 5 and the dogs."
"I also loved how tall it was, you can probably stand up straight even as a tall person. ... Standing up straight in a tent is a game changer"
"I'm 6'3 and can stand up in it."

"Both of my Coleman Instant tents have holes in the floor after just 2 uses. Both of them leaked water in a moderate storm. ... The Coleman Instant Tent has a known issue with leaks so they sell an additional aftermarket rainfly. ... I have the rainfly. Doesn't even cover the windows.... The windows fill up with water and then the water started dripping right off the keeper for the windows screen...."
"After finishing up a trip this past weekend up in Maine I found out that my new 6 person Coleman tent is not water resistant to rain. ... I always thought Coleman made a decent tent until this past weekend when I found out the hardway with water seeping through every seem of the tent"
"I had a Coleman instant tent for 13 years with no leaks. One trip to the same campground with the T4, leak, and bugs. It made me sad. ... Yep, it leaked for me the first time I used it. Colorado mtn storms can be crazy, but short."

"The pole design means they are under twist pressure, and after I'd replaced the third set of poles I decided to go inflatable. ... and the poles kept breaking."
"It was a great tent up until the fiberglass pole snapped on a trip last year."
"Personally snapped a three season tent on rainier from the wind a few seasons ago. Granted it was a big Agnes tiger wall."

"Repacking is not fun ... found that using straps helps getting it back in its case."
"much more difficult to pack down. ... Coleman was a real pain packing down - aligning the tent poles so it it could fold over was tricky"
"Not quite as easy to pack away."

"I have a Coleman 6P with a porch area and it’s nice for car camping but not something I would want to take to Scout weekends. ... It’s huge and heavy, and would take up more space than me and my son need, blocking others who have bigger families."
oxbowlake808 0.3If the budget can afford it, stepping up from the Coleman Silver to the Gold/Northstar range is a significant increase in quality and experience. Treat it well and it will last for years.
hammond_egger 0.2I have a 4,6 and 8 person Coleman Insta-tent. I take the 8 person when my wife goes with me. Plenty of room, actually has a divider to section it off into two rooms. Get the biggest tent you can afford. You'll never regret extra space,
vanbrima 0.2This is exactly what I have. It is wonderful!
I have a Coleman 6 person pop up tent. I’ve used it for years! Very durable
Upper-Collection9373 0.2Just get a Coleman easy up and be done with it honestly
BarNo2871 0.2Have the same tent and set up and take down is so easy, i highly recommend it.
Confident-Caramel-11 0.2Another vote for Coleman Instant up 4P, or maybe 6P for 2 people! I camp solo, and am a shorty, can easily setup in 15 mins, and fits in smallish car!
CriticalEuphemism 0.2This is the way. I have a nature hike mongar 2 for backpacking and a Coleman instant 6 person for car camping. The Coleman feels like a palace with 2 people. Just don’t expect to go 4 seasons with it. Eventually, I’ll upgrade the mongar to a xmid or other trekking pole tent, but for now, I prefer the price and extra width of the mongar. It’s a full 50” and can fit 2 pads comfortably.
Dulak2019 0.2Absolutely! It’s a Coleman instant 6 person and worth every penny!
Haunting_Nerve8679 0.2I have the Coleman 6 person instant tent. Family of 4 (2 adults and large framed 10yo boy and skinny 7yo girl). Fits us a queen and 2 single air mattress with room for backpacks. We love it, use it car camping about twice a year. Easy set, sturdy and holds out water well. We live in North FL. You do have to buy the rainfly separately, but all in all a great tent for car camping.
jam2market 0.2Looks like the ones on C are "instant tents" I have had the Coleman 6 person instant tent for over 3 years and It's been great. It's been on tons of trips and probably a cumulative couple months of camping. Literally takes 60 seconds to set up and is pretty easy to take down. You don't have to mess with putting poles together and fishing them through the tent. My only complaint is that it's pretty large when put away in its bag so it takes up a decent amount of space in the car. Also if you go Coleman, make sure to check if it includes the rain fly. I didn't realize mine did not come with it until it arrived then I had to order the rain fly separately, but not a big deal.
