Poor quality
I’ve had this tent just over a year (out of warranty by a few months). I’ve used it 3 times. On the second time one of the tent poles twisted; I duct taped it but the roof pole doesn’t extend anymore. I just used it for the 3rd time; another pole twisted and broke off the little metal piece that snaps the extender pole in place. I was ok having 1 wonky pole but now I have 2! Not worth the money.

The original model of the tent was awesome, so much so that we got the new one. The new one WONT STAND UP! Its caving in on its self.

Fast and swift easy tent set up
The easiest set up for one person. I use mine in all weather. I have had mine for 10 years very easy to transport and durable with comfort. My best tent in all my years of camping

Is this a tent or a hotel?
Okay this thing is huge. You can probably fit way more than 8 people or a whole bedroom. I was thinking about parking my car in it. It probably would fit. It's a great tent and easy to set up but you need to find a big open space for it.

Easy for the novice!
As a solo camper the first time I used this tent, it couldn't have been easier to set up and then take down several days later. I looked up several YouTubes about this tent before using it, and that was helpful! The size was perfect to use as a cabin style tent. Although the temperature was in the 90's during the days, the tent was comfortable during the nights because of the good ventilation and in fact that I put up a shade/rain tarp over the tent.

Major Disappointment – Fabric Leaks in Light Rain
I'm currently camping in this 8-person Coleman tent and unfortunately it's not holding up. It's been raining moderately — not heavy storms — and the tent is already leaking through the fabric itself, not just the seams. We're worried that if the rain picks up, the inside will be completely soaked. The product description made it seem like no additional rain fly was necessary, but that’s clearly not true. Meanwhile, the smaller 4-person Coleman tent we also brought is handling the rain just fine. It's frustrating that the larger, more expensive model actually performs worse in the same conditions. I’ll most likely be returning it after this trip. If you’re considering this tent, know that it absolutely needs additional waterproofing, and even then it may not hold up. I’d recommend looking at other options if you want something reliable for real-world camping.

We understand how important a reliable shelter is, especially during camping trips, and we apologize for the inconvenience.

Complete disappointment of instant tent design
Low quality and terrible design instant tent. As a repeat customer, who enjoyed previous instant 8 person tent for 10 years, I see that this tent was designe not engineers, but marketers and bean counters. No adequate ventilation during rainy weather, horrible entrance on one side with atrocious T-shaped zippers. All of this leads to moisture accumulation and water leaks.

Excellent tent
Love this tent. I purchased it to replace exactly the same one I’ve been using for over 10 years.
