Flex-Bow 2-Person

My Flex bow has been through some pretty good storms

Love my Kodiak flexbow. Over $400 though.

Car camping or is someone going to have to pack it. For an absolutely comfortable and durable experience, I cannot recommend the Kodiak flexion (canvas) enough. Absolutely fantastic tent. Literally the only issue is weight. It is quite heavy. For cub scouts it's perfect, and it will last decades. Also, you can comfortably fit like 8 kids in one if the other kids are unprepared.

This data seems a bit skewed how is Slingfin or Hilleberg not on this list. It's interesting that the Flex Bow and Springbow made the list though as the only 2 Canvas tents they are by far the easiest of canvas tents to setup. I feel like I have done some decent research on tents before and never heard of Durston.

I have a Kodiak canvas flex-bow tent that I used 4 seasons, its sturdy metal poles held up through a lot of snowfall and it was fine in the summer in the mountains of Colorado and Wyoming mostly .

The Kodiak flex-bow is very simple and quick to set up but it’s big and heavy. Also, it’s not self-standing so you have to get the stakes into the ground for it to work.

Love my Kodiak Flex Bow canvas tent.

I don't have much in terms of comparing the wall tents, but I do have a Kodiak Flex-Bow tent. In the pictures it looks plastic, but they are canvas tents which come with an additional weather coating on them. Definitely not a plastic tent. It's been in heavy rain and winds with no issues.

Can't answer your question on the quick tents. I have a Kodiak flex-bow. If you choose one, get a drill with drill tent stakes. My daughter and I can setup the tent itself in 5 minutes.

Our Kodiak Canvas Flex-Bow was one of the only tents or canopies left standing on two separate beach camping trips where we faced heavy winds. Packed up, it weighs more and takes up more space but love that I can rely on it under those circumstances.
