Like the idea of the tent

Did not get to use this tent, some problems with my tent not popping up on the one side. The company refunded me. I give it 3 stars because customer service was lots more helpful than I anticipated. Like the idea of the tent, it was pretty big and I am sure would have been great for sunny days on the beach or in the park.

I liked the tent a lot, the only problem was that did not have pocket to pass the power cable thru the walls. I had to use the front screen door and run the cable thru the middle of the entrance.

Used as a space saver option for our new tent trailer.

In general this is good.  We used it twice and both times had a rough time getting the tent part to lift and lock in place - definitely a two person job.  We hope the more we use it the easier it will get.  Overall though it was a decent price and that's what I wanted.

I did a quick setup at home and the tent is large.  I ordered four person version.  I won't be using the tent until next year but I like what I have so far.

What a great idea for a tent! Item is just as described....the only thing I wish it would came with is a matching roof for over the top of the frame. Also the shipping was fast...very fast! Thank You....Can't wait to try it out this weekend.

I really like this tent but have to agree with other reviewers that it can be a challenge to set up.  The color coded sleeves make inserting the poles an easier task but It is difficult getting the pole end into the grommet at each corner at the bottom of the tent.  Unless VERY careful you will tear the mesh when inserting the pole into the grommet.  I found it helped to put the top of the tent with the poles inserted against something solid as it helps to put a bend in the pole making it easier to insert the pole into the grommet.  Another thing I learned is that you must stake and guy out the tent as it is quite easily blown over by wind.

I went on camping for the first time in many years with family. I searched for a tent that would be spacious, easy to pitch, and wouldn't cost an arm and a leg. After actually using the tent, here are my thoughts:
1) The tent is fairly easy to put up, but nowhere near as easy as Coleman makes it seem. The instructions are also essentially useless. Fortunately, my brothers were already familiar and helped with setup.
2) The screened porch area is a nice addition. It's great for sitting in and enjoying the breeze, or storing items that you don't want in the actual sleeping area, such as shoes or necessities. We used it for our shoes. IT IS NOT SHIELDED FROM THE RAIN. The rainfly does not cover the entire porch area. You can tell from the photos that it doesn't. The screen is slanted and is clearly not under the rainfly area. Reviewers who expressed disappointment with this lack of weatherproofing didn't check well enough. We experienced a heavy downpour and the porch area was soaked. The inside sleeping area was dry as a bone, as I expected.
3) The zipper to the screened in area is annoying. I had no issues zipping and unzipping. However, you have to bend down each and every time. If your hands are full, like mine was with a wriggling infant, you'll quickly become exasperated like I did. Coleman does make a large 6-person tent with standing room and a screened in area, that has an actual door that swings out. That would have been much better for my personal situation and I wish I'd purchased it instead.
4) The sleeping area is spacious. You probably could fit 6 people inside the tent, but you won't have much room for storing personal items. You can definitely fit a queen sized mattress, and a twin sized mattress if you wanted. A full sized mattress may be pushing it. There are a few pockets for storing small personal effects.
5) Yes, half of the back wall is mesh. You can choose to keep the rainfly down to cover it for warmth and/or privacy, or keep the rainfly up to allow ventilation. Even with the rainfly up you'll get some privacy, as it comes down enough that someone would have to go out of their way to peek into your tent.

Overall I'm satisfied with my purchase. It was at a nice price point, it offered features I wanted, it wasn't a pain in the @$$ to put up, and there was more than enough room inside. Hopefully Coleman does something about the screen room zipper situation because from the reviews, it appears that's a pain for anyone regardless.

It's a great tent, but a little difficult to setup. I might go with three quick pitch tents next time.

i would likle it except it seems to have some flaws... The hole that the tent posts is supposed to go in is sewed on upside down and it already seems like it will tear in no time flat.

Great idea to have your camping peripherals all in one kit. However, the tent stakes aren't that great because the ends are plastic and I'm not really sure how the stake puller is supposed to pull up stakes that aren't just beaten into a sand box. But having the rubber mallet and extra stakes is great.

If it wasn't for the inept setup directions I'd give it a 5, once figured out it's not hard to set up but does require at least two people which is expected for a tent this size.  If you're at a location with nice view like we usually have in the northern Rockies, you can enjoy the view from inside your tent with all the windows open on the one end.

Great tent that's easy to set up. Just wish there was a front flap.

Overall, the tent worked perfectly for our evening party, providing shelter and a good focal point.
Pros:
*The tent is attractive.
*The tent was well designed and was reasonably easy to put up.
*The instructions were not awesome, but they were entirely adequate to enable us to assemble the tent, and all the parts were clearly marked with the respective part number.
*A couple of parts were damaged, but customer service was helpful and responsive and sent replacement parts out quickly.
Cons:
*You will need to be aware of the wind forecast for the day of your event if you live in an area where brisk winds are common.  We erected it on the down-wind side of our barn on a day when winds peaked around 20mph.  We anchored the corners and sides with T-posts and ratchet straps to keep the wind from lifting it.  It survived it well enough, but I don't think it would have made it through nearly as well without the shelter of the barn and the extra anchoring.  To be fair, though, I'm not sure whether or not a rented tent would have done much better under those conditions.
*The shipping boxes were fortified with thin sheets of plywood at the ends to help protect the metal poles, but we still had some minor damage in shipping, and the boxes were not really in very good shape to store the tent afterwards.
General comments:
*Our total cost to buy the tent was just a little bit more than it would have cost to rent one, although the rental cost would have included putting up and taking down the tent -- something to consider if you don't have time or several people to help put it up.  I'd say 4 people is a good sized crew, at least for raising the roof structure off of the ground.  2-3 people are adequate to assemble the roof structure on the ground.
*For reference, we had eight 60" diameter round tables under the 10x32 foot tent, with 8 chairs around each table and had room to walk between them.  You might be able to squeeze in another table or two, but it would start to get crowded, especially if you use all the side and end walls.
*It would be really helpful to have storage bags or crates available to put it in after use.  We will probably make something, as right now I have all the tubular parts in small bundles of 6-8 tubes secured with ball bungees.  This works pretty well, but we will have to be careful handling them to avoid damaging the ends of the tubes.
*Don't wait until the last minute (like I did) to unpack the parts and examine them for damage.  The end of one of our vertical legs was significantly squashed due to handling during shipment and we had to straighten and reshape it to get it to fit in its mating socket.  Even though customer service was very responsive, it still took a few days to get replacements.  If I had examined it sooner, I probably could have avoided the "blacksmithing" I had to do to straighten the parts.
*A rubber mallet is handy for assembly and disassembly.  Mine was black rubber and left "skid marks" on the white paint that I had to rub off.  A white or non-marking mallet would be better.
*For what it's worth, the description says 20x32 tent.  The box says 20x33 feet.  It appears that it is actually 6x10 meters which is pretty close to 33 feet.

I wish the tent had been packed in a zip lock bag (and without paper), because repacking is a problem.  Aluminized mylar  is good-  reflects away excess heat or cold. It would be visible to a search party too.  You could make this function as a mylar sleeping bag by closing the end.  But it is a good lightweight resource and I wished I had one when I fell on the trail late in the day.

The only thing I don't like about the tent is that it could be taller. I am used to standing up to get dressed in the morning. It excels in all other areas.

Absolutely loved the idea of this tent. We've only used it a few times however and one of the plastic corner joints snapped. It would not be such a problem if they sold a replacement piece for it. However the one stated on their website does not fit the product and when you talk to a representative they offer 25% off. It's not worth 25% a nearly $200 tent if you can only use it a few times. Also the Coleman site has this tent for $309.99 so the discount doesn't really cover anything.
