The tent includes a large storage locker with zippered access from both inside and outside the tent, a built-in mud mat, a media pocket, a gear loft, and three 2-section storage pockets. Plus, the center loop allows you to hang a lantern and the E-Port makes it easy to run power to your devices. You’ll never have to fight over whose turn it is to set up the tent again; thanks to the pre-attached poles, set-up will take a grand total of 60 seconds.
The 1200mm coating and taped-seam fly will shrug off water and keep you and your gear dry, and the built-in mesh side panels and windows provide excellent ventilation even in the dead of summer. If you’re bringing a large group, you’ll want to pack this tent. It’s got space enough for everyone, as long as you don’t mind sleeping together in a single open-floor-plan shelter. Chances are you’ll probably spent most of your days out and about—at the festival/concert, hiking, or kayaking—but you can come back to the tent and stretch out in full comfort for a good night’s sleep.
It can fit four queen-sized airbeds and has a center height of 80 inches. This tent features nine windows and a mesh ceiling for ventilation as well as three entryways. The assembled weight of this tent is 43.7 pounds, and it’s suitable for three seasons, excluding winter. It includes three e-ports, a sizeable movable movie screen with a hanging media pocket, and a clip-in gear loft.
You set a new low in tents and the damn zippers you put in them. And before you guys cop an attitude, I have been camping since I was at least 4 years old and I am now in my mid-50s. At Untamed Space, we’re passionate about helping you have the best camping experience possible. Wherever you are in your journey, whatever gear you’re searching for, you can be sure to find unbiased and up-to-date reviews for all of your needs. Similar to easy setup, some tent brands are just flat out better at weather protection than others.
In fact, with a little bit of seam sealer and an at-home DWR treatment, the tent performed much better in the rain than otherwise. All told, with some aftermarket work and careful staking, the tent will hold up in mildly unpleasant wet weather conditions. I still would not recommend it in extended rainfall or during storms. On that note, I can imagine very few circumstances in which 7 people could comfortably share this tent.
To help you decide which Ozark Trail Canopies suits your needs best, we’ve put together in-depth guides for each model in the brand’s line. Pull them down to the base corners of the tent and attach them to the pin rings. An Ozark Trail tent is a great introductory piece of equipment. The fabric of the tent is polyester taffeta, which is fine, tightly-woven polyester filaments that are typically thin. The (T) refers to thread count used vertically and horizontally per square inch.
Not only that, but the dome tent will keep you safe from the elements better than any cabin tent out there. I also like that for a small tent, there’s a ton of storage options. This is great for smaller tents that don’t have a lot of extra space. If you want to know a bit more about what kind of tents they have on offer, you’re in luck.
They claim they are weather tested, but I feel they don’t include rain or wind as elements of the weather. I could make a better shelter out of cardboard boxes and scotchgard. For all the reasons mentioned above, we’ve found that the Ozark Trail Three Room Instant Cabin is the best overall. Its combination of a spacious floor plan, smart layout, and added livability all work together to make it the stand-out model in the Ozark Trail lineup. Livability describes the overall day-to-day experience of owning and using a tent, and tents that are more comfortable, convenient, and easy to use score the highest in terms of livability. There are many other tents that are “better” but Core tents are very solid and offer really good bang for buck.
