Or for something a little different, check out the Coleman 4 person instant cabin tent review. In researching this we came across a user who had even used the tent successfully in snow – which is some really impressive durability and protection from a tent that won’t break the bank. This tent is also better suited to backpacking than the Sundome. There are plenty of other options to consider if the coleman screen tent doesn’t feel like the right tent for you.
The larger poles can easily be replaced but the ones that were used for the rain fly couldn’t be replaced. The Sundome 6-person dome tent is up to 33% more water-resistant versus a comparable standard Coleman® tent. All packed up, the Sundome 6 weighs 16.6lb, and the packed size of its travel bag is 28”x13”x8”. Once coleman instant tent you’ve put together the main tent, adding the rainfly is a fairly simple process. The Sundome’s quick pitch time, compact pack size and light weight make this a great tent for weekend breaks and touring camping. Bear in mind, this is a rather heavy tent and not the best choice for backpacking or hiking tours.
This is a nice tool to use in relatively dry conditions and for occasional outdoor excursions and camping with a car access. It will provide you a shelter against annoying insects, and it will protect you from the wind and light rain. Dome tents are without a doubt the most commonly seen of all the various types of tents you will see when camping.
The Coleman Sundome 4 Person Dome Tent is designed as more of a summer tent. If there was some light drizzle, then you’d stay dry but if you got any decent sort of rain, then you’d most likely get wet inside. I mentioned earlier that there were only two fiberglass poles for this tent, the old tent used four plus small ones for the rain flap.
If it rains, the tent is 33% more water-resistant, and the WeatherTec™ system with its patented welded floors and inverted seams also helps you stay dry. When it’s time to head home, the tent easily packs up into an expandable carry bag with a rip strip until you’re off on your next adventure. The 3, 7’x7′, dome tent is part of the classic Sundome series of tents from Coleman. The Sundome 3 sleeps 3 happy campers and includes a large door for easy entry/exit with a hooded fly to provide ventilation even in rain.
