easy to set up
I haven't used it camping yet, but I did set it up as soon as I got it. It was very simple to set up. It took me a little longer - about 20 minutes, but that was because I read the instructions wrong! I did set it up by myself and took it back down by myself. I was impressed by how easy it was and by how roomy it was inside.

We love this tent, however, after our third night of camping we were packing it up and one of the legs tore through the tent floor.

Design flaw
Works well, nice size but flawed it design. The fabric stretches tightly over the central roof hub when closed up and wears through roof and floor fabric. I have had to put patches in both areas due to holes wearing through floor and roof due to it. These areas need to be reinforced by Coleman.

Hello. Thank you for sharing your feedback on the Coleman Skylodge™ 6-Person Instant Camping Tent. We're glad to hear that you are happy with the tent's overall performance and size. However, we're sorry to learn about the wear you experienced around the central roof hub and the resulting holes in both the roof and floor. We understand how frustrating it is to have to repair a tent due to wear in areas that you believe should be reinforced. To help minimize wear during storage, we recommend ensuring the tent fabric is folded as evenly as possible around the frame and avoiding excessive tension when packing it away. However, we understand that you believe additional reinforcement in these areas would improve the overall design. We appreciate you taking the time to share your detailed feedback. For warranty details, kindly see here: https://www.coleman.com/warranty-information.html. If you have any more feedback, please reach out to us via our Contact Us form on our website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time. Thank you! Coleman® Consumer Care
it works
pros: set up and take down take 3-4 mins max. love that you can see the view when the rain fly is off, tons of ventilation. cons: there aren’t tie downs to spread out the tent fully taking away space from the sides. the bottom looks like the tarp material is stretching when you fold it back up after use.

Pole snapped
The second time we put the tent up one of the joints snapped and we were stuck with a broken tent on our camping trip. We had to attach it to a tree in order for it to stay up for the weekend. We’ve owned a Core pop up tent for years and never had this issue.

Hello, Thanks so much for sharing your feedback on our Skylodge™ 6-Person Instant Camping Tent. We’re really sorry to hear that the tent did not meet your expectations and that the pole broke during your trip. That’s definitely not the kind of reliability you should expect, especially when you're out in the elements. We understand how frustrating it must have been to improvise just to keep the tent standing. Your feedback is important, and we’ve shared it with our product team to help improve future designs. If you require assistance, or you have more feedback, we encourage you to reach out to us directly via the "Contact Us" form on our official website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am -5pm Eastern Time.

Great tent looks stunt but super bulky storage
This tent extremely easy to set up. You can do it by yourself. It is extremely easy to follow the instructions and almost anyone can do it. The tent looks gorgeous when it’s put together and is easy to stake into the ground. It’s extremely easy to disassemble, but it is incredibly hard to figure out how to get it in the bag perfectly. I have an extremely hard time folding it up. I keep getting the tent folded up where it’s bulky on one side and super skinny on the other. If there’s one thing I could change, it would be how to put it back in the bag. You definitely need a tarp underneath your tent, even though it has the tarp lining when folding it up, it is extremely hard to clear all the dirt off of the tent due to how it folds. I got extremely covered in dirt folding this tent and trying to sweep the dirt off so that it wouldn’t make the tent bag extremely dirty but in the end I was dirty. The tent was dirty, and the tent bag was dirty. I also did not realize that the tent bag would be so large. I knew it would be big, but I didn’t realize it would be the size of a pop-up but I guess that makes sense because it resembles a pop-up in installation. It rained a lot on this camping trip. I took it on and we did stay dry. They do wish the rain fly came out a little bit over on the sides more allowing for less rain to come through the windows. Very spacious on the inside and a lot of headroom. I am 5’7 and I could not touch the highest point in the tent but closer to the door I could scrape my head against. There were three of us staying in this tent with two large dogs. For this trip, we chose three large cots from which took out a large amount of space in the tent, allowing just for the room for the dogs to lay down on the ground.

Nice light, easy setup tent
Quick and easy setup. A bit tight for 6 people, unless it is really only used to sleep in. Otherwise it is comfortable and lightweight for camping trips. Looks like it will last the test of time. Weather wise it stood up to light winds but nothing major so far.

Great Tent
We’ve always had Coleman tents. Just took this new one on its first outing and it was great!
