r/CampingandHikingRecommend me the best tent for family camping please

We have the predecessor to REI's Wonderland which is the very similar "Kingdom 6" and it was fantastic for family camping and easy to make into a glamping palace. The "garage" made an extra porch to sit and eat pancakes in during rain and keep gear sheltered. Rooms have a zip able divider. If you can find one in good shape used it'd probably be inexpensive yet glorious.

Winning and amazing for us was: Exped Megamats with sheets and quilts. An EE Accomplice for my wife and I on a Duo; each kid with their own single. We brought blankets like Rumpls as well for extra warmth. Tend wise our old REI Kingdom 6 has been amazing, especially with the "garage" add on. So big, zip up door two make two rooms. The garage gave us a place to cook and eat pancakes in pouring rain. Might get one used! Btw also huge wins: Dew drop led lights inside and out the tent. Solar recharging for the win. Plus solar Luci color changing camp lanterns. Polypropylene Persian carpets as doormats. Kelty camp couches. Eno Nest double hammocks with upgraded straps. So many good times...

r/campingWhat is a good, large tent for 2 people who want more space? Would like to be able to stand up in the tent when car camping. Budget is up to $750
11 months ago

Haven't seen it mentioned, but we LOVE our REI kingdom 6. It's the older model, but it has plenty of space and lots of awesome features. Pockets, dividing walls, and storage areas under the rain fly you can access from inside the tent if needed. A little front porch area and attachments you can add like a "garage." We are short, but we can both stand up in it. It's 3 poles and easy to set up. It also fits us and our 3 dogs with plenty of space for everything.

r/campingGood deal for potentially OG Kingdom6 tent, or should we pass and wait for a unicorn Agnes/Gazelle/Wawona8 sale?

It's the tent I own. It's a solid tent, I'd gladly pay that for a second backup or for friends.

r/campingWhat tent would fit the Exped Megamat Duo (or equivalent) comfortably?

I have the REI Kingdom 6 and it fits my Megamat Duo with room for bags and a dog bed. They stopped making the Kingdom tents, but the Wonderland series is similar.

That's not a bad price. I think I paid $250 for a smoker owned Kingdom 6 with Garage and Vestibule that other than the smell was perfect. A couple washes with enzyme soap and I'm back in business. I don't think it will be as roomy as you would like though. We're 2 adults, 4yo and a small dog and it would be sufficient sleeping space but no extra room.

r/CampingGearIf weight is no longer a constraint, what would you choose for a freestanding tent?

My car-camping tent is a Kingdom 6 from REI. [https://www.rei.com/product/147958/rei-co-op-kingdom-6-tent](https://www.rei.com/product/147958/rei-co-op-kingdom-6-tent) I'd love to replace it with a fabric tent one day, but this one for now is great for my wife, dog, and I for just about every car-camping trip we've ever done. I think it's 10ish years old - have used it at least 100 nights.

The REI Wonderland 6 is an amazing tent. I have an older version (Kingdom 6) and it’s a beast. The tent is not cheap but it will last. Mine has been ridden hard and put away wet (literally) and is nearly as good as day one. I say nearly because my brother in law set it up the last time out prior to me getting there, and he split a pole. Not the tents fault, user error. Easily fixed though and the beast tent lives on!

The BC6 is amazing… it is super durable and easy to set up. At 5’4” you might struggle a little at first with set up, especially in the wind, but once you do it a bunch of times… it is easy to do. (poles are all color coordinated and chorded together. I use it beach camping so it stands up to the wind… and has plenty of mesh to be breezy on those hot days. Given the sale… I would recommend. I really miss the kingdome 6 and 8… it had a built in screen porch side that gave you the choice to have a tent and screen porch all in one. A true glamping tent! If you get it, post photos!

r/ElectricForestCan anyone recommend a good quality waterproof tent for 4/6 people?
11 months ago

I prefer tents with a full rainfly -- Kelty, some REI, Nemo, Marmot, that Northface Wawona. Many of the cheaper brands have partial rainflys that I don't think cut it as well. My wife and I have the REI Kingdom 6, love it, and have used it for years. I think they call it the wonderland now and it has okay reviews. But its huge and standable and its lasted for tons of fests. Any 6 person tent will be a challenge for 6 people. 4 People would work in a lot of 6p tents but check dimensions. That Nemo Aurora 6 has way smaller dimensions for a 6 person tent than my Kingdom 6. I personally don't think I'd go higher than a 6p tent though, a lot of the bigger ones can be a challenge at some fests and campsites.
