Coleman - Skydome 6-Person Camping Tent with Full-Fly Vestibule (SP_271293)

i love my coleman 6p skydome with the full fly, held up to a ton of rain and snow, make sure to give it an extra spray of waterproofing for extra peace of mind. for how much youre planning id recommend it over the others due to cost

I'm a big fan of my Coleman Skydome 6 person tent with a full-fly vestibule. It's pretty easy to set up, and tall enough for an adult to stand up in. Also it's not crazy expensive.

Not instant. It takes two people 5-10 minutes to get it up though.

Honestly I would say to just look at a 6p Coleman tent. I would not go too expensive for a starter tent. Personally I like tents that have a rainfly that goes almost to the ground. And a vestibule is always nice too. This is the style I am talking about.

Coleman Skydome 6 with full rain fly might be worth looking at. I hate my Gazelle screen tent. Constantly leaks, poor ventilation, and a pain to deal with due to large folded size.

Our Troop has been using 4-person and 6-person Coleman Skydome tents for the last several years. The boys are rough on tents, so priorities are cost and ease of repair. Positives: - The tents themselves are quick to set up and pack away. - They are well ventilated. - Inexpensive and reasonably durable. Negatives: - They are not especially light, weighting between 8 and 13 lbs. - Poles are attached to the tent, which makes them easy to pack but could be a problem if a pole needs to be replaced. - Can handle rain when set up correctly, but may allow in water in a severe storm. On that last point, it's hard for me to provide a completely objective assessment because we have had Skydome tents become soggy in very bad weather, but this may be because of boys leaving the vent on the door open rather than issues with the tent itself.

I have been extremely impressed and happy with my Coleman Skydome 6person tent. It’s not the best for backpacking but great for car camping. I use mine in the PNW and Olympic Peninsula. https://preview.redd.it/79gwcgjd3h0g1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8dc6b72e953dc22e25ee21a39d1fd59e0cfec6d1 It sells for around $250 unless you buy the Skydome Dark Room where the are charging more $350+ Coleman offers a nice waterproof tent with the Skydome the rain fly comes all the way down to the ground. Coleman also has a tarp like material that covers the floor and 6” up the side walls so even if water was underneath the tent you would not get wet. Skydome offers enough room for my girlfriend and I to relax comfortably without having to put our clothes on while sitting. We use 2 cots with memory foam and in between each others cot is a small table and two chairs. This is nice when the weather is bad. Skydome offers a screen porch that works great for gear or pets to sleep at the same time full rain fly on the entire tent. This will be my 3rd year using this tent. I average about 20 weekends of camping from Late April to October. The tent has performed wonderfully.

I use a 6 person Coleman Skydome. Good amount of space for me, a femme, and all the gear I need to bring in at night away from curious animals or driving rain. A double sleeping pad takes up just about half the space. Have just enough room to stand and change. Dont be fooled by the "6-person" marketing gimmick. That tent could sleep about 3 people and their stuff reasonably. Packs away neatly in the back of my truck where it lives in between camps. Just know though that once you go big, you'll never go back to a single or two person tent ever again.

I love my Skydome. There are fancier tents out there, but it was affordable and has stood up to rain and wind, as well as being pretty breathable on hot nights. On clear nights (and in less crowded campgrounds) you can remove the rain fly and look at the stars through the fully mesh top.

I second the Coleman Skydome. My only regret is that I DIDN'T get the full-fly vestibule model.

My gf and i just bought the Coleman skydome 6 person for us and our 2 dogs. It's been great so far. I'm 6'4" and can almost stand up straight, which is good enough for me. Easy set up and break down - I'm able to do both myself no problem. We sleep on a queen size inflatable mattress. Plenty of room.

I got a deal on a Skydome 6 last fall. Only used it once so far but it's certainly big enough. I like the "screen porch," handy if it rains.
