"We bought a relatively cheap one off Amazon for £100, make is Lefant, had it about 6 months now. Honestly it is brilliant"
"There’s 3 filters. A large particle one I vacuum monthly. A medium particle filter that replaced every 3 months and a fine particle filter that’s done every 12. A years kit of them is $30 on Amazon"
"Filters are cheap too."

"never deflates"
"Also pitched it on bare rock using rocks to hold the stakes on a decently breezy night and it was pretty bombproof."

"My first 2 tents were 6 person Coleman dome tents and I really miss having that huge tarp like bottom because they always kept us dry."
"it keeps us dry. ... We didn’t have that issue with the Coleman"
"I spent $80 on a six person and it went through multiple rainstorms a year. It started leaking after 6 years. Up until then, it kept us dry as a bone."

"I was hesitant about the instant part of it having not used one before, but I love it. I can put it up/take it down by myself"
"Coleman is stupid easy to set up ... this is so easy and takes a lot of stress away ... It’s easy ... You don’t have to think about it."

"I went from a 4P Coleman to 6P Coleman when I had kids."
"For car camping I like Coleman 6p tents. ... I use mine for 2 adults on a queen sized deep air mattress. Have two dogs, a Shepard and a beagle each with their own beds. Plenty of room for us"
"We put two double mattresses in the 6p with a bit of room left for clothes."

"Dropped about 9ozs and kicked myself the rest of the way down the trail for being so gullible. ... I could really feel those 9ozs off my back."
"For pack-in or hiking its FAR too heavy."
"Heavy af though. ... In general as a 2.8kg backpacking tent it's considered very heavy though, especially if you're taking days of food and other gear."

"We went from a Coleman 4 person tent to a Coleman 12 tent. We also have a queen blow up mattress & having the extra room is amazing."
"Im camping now in a Coleman 4 person tent. 1 is comfy, 2 is cramped. 4 if we were midgets."
"I find that you basically have to halve the number of people advertised to fit in a tent to get a comfortable experience with space for gear and to be sleeping without being up against the side walls (which can cause moisture to transfer inside of the tent). ... my Coleman rent that is advertised as a 6 person tent but sleeps three plus gear better than it fits 6 sardines."
If you’re looking for an affordable tent, get one of the coleman dome tents. Keep in mind that a 6 person tent will be very tight for 6 full grown people. If the boys are 15+ get at least a 8 person tent.
r/camping • Affordable 6 person tent ->I have the Coleman Dome 6 (two of them) and a Core 9P, both have been great. Just left Bennett Springs in Missouri in our Coleman 6P and stayed dry the whole weekend.
r/camping • Do you guys have experience with these? ->I have the Coleman Dome 6 (two of them) and a Core 9P, both have been great. Just left Bennett Springs in Missouri in our Coleman 6P and stayed dry the whole weekend.
r/camping • Do you guys have experience with these? ->I have a Coleman 6 person tent for family trips. Absolutely fantastic, especially given the price! It has a main room, small “entry”, and then another covered smaller area outside. Makes for taking shoes off real easy and contains the mess to one area.
r/camping • Do you guys have experience with these? ->I love the Coleman 6 person dome tents. I use them for my Girl Scout troop. If you want to use them in colder temps, I recommend the Darkroom over the Sundome. The rainfly goes lower and provides more insulation.
r/camping • Affordable 6 person tent ->As a single adult scout leader I run a 4 person instant Coleman tent. I sleep on my own 95% of the time. In a pinch I could provide room for another leader. I have a 6-person but it’s way too big for me by myself. Before the Coleman I had a 4 person malamoo mega that I really liked.
r/camping • Tent Recommendations for Simple Scout Camp ->A regular Coleman dome (like a sun dome or whatever), buy a couple yards of ripstop nylon and a tube of E6000, and cover up that mesh. Worked great for me when traveling light and on a tight budget.
r/BurningMan • Updated tent recommendations where ALL the mesh has zip-up panels ->That tent is a coleman montana 8 person. I have had 2 of them,.they are very sturdy when all the guy lines are used. It does well in the rain... the fly covers the 2 side windows very well. my only complaint would be the windows are high so there is not much air flow low down. I always bring a small fan so not an issue. The coleman 6 person is what I used last. It was fine after I my dog passed and it was just me. I like to have enough room to stand, and bring a chair and small table inside incase it rains. This one is 10x10' and 6' tall. https://preview.redd.it/vna1vl7a5krf1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0c7cb984cda2696f6a6e11b307ce64be9bd89425
r/camping • Ozark Trail Tent Returns ->My first 2 tents were 6 person Coleman dome tents and I really miss having that huge tarp like bottom because they always kept us dry. I agree with the other comments to get 2 four person tents because 6 people in one tent sounds a little cramped. Pair those tents with a good tarp above and it will keep the water away no problem.
r/camping • 3 Season Tent Help - Family of 6 ->I own a 6-person tent for me and one kid. That fits two air mattresses and gives us space to stand, change clothes, keep our bags, etc. I have a Coleman and it works just fine.
r/camping • What's the best tent for my partner and I? ->I have the Coleman 6 and it's great. You had the 4 so you know it goes up in about 90 seconds, not counting staking. It's hard to beat for the money.
