Skylodge 6-Person Instant Camping Tent

I'll let others give alternatives, but my main advice is: Always get bigger than advertised. Do not get a 4-person tent. Get a big one. Or two tents? I'm one person and happy with my six-person EZ Coleman (seriously).

While I don't have the full answer for you, buy a larger tent than you think you'll need. I'm one person comfortable in a 6-person EZ Coleman snap-up tent, I don't want anything smaller even if I'm hiking in. And kids grow fast. So while you might think a 4 person tent is fine, it is not - treat yo self.

coleman 6 man instant tent. For car camping it is almost perfect. I used mine when my kids were young, toddlers to 9 ish. Set up two cots, with plenty of room to stand and dress or whatever.

Coleman instant ups. Get the 6 man if you need 4 people. Really heavy though. I heard it collapses in high wind, but you're gonna compromise somehow.

Like you, I had a Coleman pop-up for 12 years with no issues. I am also worried about the quality now. I got the Blackberry Skylodge and the poles snapped. It was an awesome tent tho, the bug doors were so nice. I didn't like the T4 for the reasons I mentioned. I now do not have a tent and no clue what to do.

Honestly, I considering getting the same tent. I am just worried about reports that it is not the same quality because it is more money. It was a main pole. I was folding it, like I have done a 1000 times and it snapped.

I've used 4,6,8 man Coleman Instant Tents for years. Goes up in about 3 minutes, comes down in about 8 minutes (you have to roll it and smash it back in the carrying bag.

I 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,

Try Coleman Skylodge Instant tent. Extremely easy to use. Only downside is occasional leakage.

I recently sold my Coleman instant up 6P. It was ok, but packed down it was huge. It didn't fit in my palisade without the seats down, needed to go on a roof rack. It was ok when the kids we little, it went on the floor under their feet but now they are older it doesn't fit there anymore. I will be buying a spring bar Kodiak tent in the new year [https://longwayleisure.com.au/product-category/kodiak-canvas/](https://longwayleisure.com.au/product-category/kodiak-canvas/) I saw these at the Scout Jamboree last January. The scouts I talked to loved them. Easy to pitch and pack up. only need 4 pegs to get it up. The tent and poles store separately so are easier to pack things in around them. We are also looking to buy them for our scout group after some significant fundraising. Only issue is the cost up front but I expect it to outlast any poly tent.
