So Ozark Trail is actually a pretty good brand, for awhile. What you get is actually really thought out and you usually get very decent quality and amenities, but the durability is not there. If you are doing it from time to time, or trying to test the waters to see if you want to invest more later then I say go for it. I have a 5 year old Ozark that is a direct knock off of the Coleman sundome and I got it for like 40 bucks and it’s still going strong, with just a bit of stress along the seams, but I seal and tape those up. It’s a good backyard tent for my kids now.
I have an ozark trail orange 2-3 person like this one shown and have had it easily 15 years and gets used 2 a year min. Thing is probably made out of polypropylene and chaos chemicals but it works and was 18.88 when i got it so that’s probably 30$ today.
I love my little ozark 2 person backpacking tent. Fits my wife and I comfortably. Super easy to set up - didn’t even come with directions and we figured it out on the fly!
I got this tent at the end of 2024 for $17 on clearance. I dont think itd fit the dog with them, but definitely two people.
I have a different ozark trails tent that I love. Ive been eyeing that A frame myself. I saw someone at a spot next to me that had it and asked them about it and they said they recommend it.
One. It’s a cheap 2-3 person Ozark Trail tent. I use it for solo camping
When it's just me and the dog, I have the smaller 2 person Ozark Trail tent. It was 25 bucks and worth every penny. I've had it for 5 years now My wife demanded a tent she can stand up in so we have the Core tent from Costco when she comes along, seems pretty okay in quality. Just annoying to wrestle it back into the bag
