During our testing, our Base Camp shrugged off both a rainstorm and a desert windstorm as if they were nothing. Despite losing some headroom in comparison with the Kelty Wireless 6 and The North Face Wawona 6, both of which measure six-foot-four in height, the Base Camp 6 offers a substantial six-foot-two. Like our couples’ tent pick, the Wireless 6 is a dome-shaped tent with a tried and true two-pole design.
The Ozark Trail 12-Person Cabin Tent turned out to be a spacious and convenient option for my recent camping trip. With its 180 square feet of living space, tall center height, and adaptable room ozark trail screen house divider, it felt like a second home in the midst of nature. The separate doors for personal sleeping spaces or convertible screen room was a thoughtful feature for a group campout like ours.
In our tests one camper took less than 10 minutes to put it up on the first try. Two shorter aluminum poles cross to support the roof while four longer poles join to the roof poles at the top of the tent and slide into pegs at the ground. The tent roof is made of polyester taffeta treated with a DWR (durable water repellent) coating. The walls are made of fine no-see-um nylon mesh edged with polyester taffeta.
It is a lighter-weight product, which inherently involves thinner, less durable materials. When we compared the Taglong to beefier models, we had to score lower for this reason. Still, when we consider its niche, there’s no denying it has excellent properties, like double stitching, weather taping, high-tensile aluminum, and reinforced joints. Our hands-down winner in this category is the Eurmax Standard 10×10.
The new types that go right up without connections are so much better. It was a nice size though and eventually got up with extra tape. I am now ready to put up the screen house on my back patio so my grandchildren can play without the bugs getting them or the sun burning them along with eating out there. If you have the manual and can scan it and e-mail me I would really appreciated it.
