- A quick vid on how to get the coleman octagon 8 back in its bag.
I first put the poles and pegs into the storage bag making sure they are flat on the bottom
Then fold as instructed easy!
I've used this tent 4 times this year and this video saved me! Every time I succeeded in getting it into the bag due to this helpful video so thank you! Awesome tent, has been through the mill in torrential rain and high winds and still remained standing with no leaks!
Immensely helpful video. Coleman should have this video as a QR code on the tent
Thank you. This is a game changer. Put my tent up yesterday as a trial run but failed miserably to get it back in the bag. This worked perfectly. Genius!
I done the exact same today 😂 its currently sitting half packed in my car boot
Yes mate!! This video has saved my sanity after trying (and failing) to recreate how the tent arrived in the bag
Mate, you saved my life. You don't know how many times I cursed at this tent wondering how it was ever going to get back in its poxy little bag!
Genuinely blew my mind that this worked the first time! Amazing, thank you
Great video. After sweating buckets searched for instruction. Found your video. Thanks. 😘
5 years later your video is still helping folks around the world get this fck tent back into its bag like a pro!
You make it look so simple, I hope I can follow your instructions. You are very clear and precise. Nice job.
Thank you so much for this video. As a new camper this video reassured us to buy the Octagon 8.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video it is a big help in getting the tent back in the bag. The secret is in getting it the right width for the bag and getting the air out - I roll over it myself to do this before folding it up.
We bought this tent last year and had a few trips with it, it’s a great tent,
The first time, I had to leave the bag with the poles out, but by the time we got home, with the bag compressed with the rest of the luggage, the poles did fit in the bag. The second trip, No problem at all putting it back in the bag. The main trick is to push all the air out and let it deflate completely, and it fits perfectly. Quite surprising what a difference that makes!!
We actually put the poles in first, then the divider screen and outer fly, and then just put the main part on top, No problems whatsoever.
HUGE THANKS! I packed the tent smoothly thanks to your brilliant instructions, wonderful job!
So helpful; thank you. Followed your instructions to the letter and it worked first time, no problem at all 👍🏼
Cheers buddy, I have one of these tents for years. Done it first time from your video.
Thanks , after a couple of self trials and watching your video, I was able to fit the tent in the trolley bag. Phew! Thanks
Brilliant! Best video out there on how to re pack my octagon 8. Now I know how it's done. Cheers chap! 👍
Great video thank you. Getting a tent back into the bag can be tricky task however after watching the video it went in the bag first time. 😀
You life saver. I ended up damaging the bag and ruining the zip getting this back in previously. Now have a new bag and looking forward to getting it all back in together !!
Thank you for this video. Am a beginner so bought this tent as was easy to put up...never though about the packing away. Spent almost an hour trying to get it packed up with no success and once I saw this it only took 5 minutes. Great tutorial 👍
know what you y
Okk
You saved my husband and I a lot of time at a festival this weekend...We got it all back into the bag first time because of this video! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
The power of the internet glade i could help
Mate, thank you! You made my life much better this time around. I struggled with getting the tent back in the bag the first time around. After watching your video it was a breeze.
I just bought this tent, glad to know it's really simple to put it back in the included case.
Brilliant, we've just come home for the third time with the fly in a bundle separate from the bag, now we know the knack, thank you.
Glade it was of some help
Thanks you so much!
I only put my tent up and straight down to trial it for our trip and I’ve managed to get it down and in the bag first time thanks to this 🥳
Amazing video. Just got this tent and was doing a practice run. Packing it up I started trying to pack it as it arrived but was struggling straight away so looked for a video. Id never have tried it this way. Had ut packed up in the bag in no time. Life and time saver! Cheers. :)
What a great "How to video" this is an amazing tip. Thanks for the instructions.
Thank you! You made it look so easy when it's done properly👍
Thanks allot mate!
You saved me a headache ✌🏽
Thanks ! I still couldn’t fit it with the poles , but you made folding it a lot easier :)
I didn't make it clear what to do with the pole but I put them in the bag first and flatten them down hope that helps
Really helpful - thanks a heap for taking the time to do this!
You are very welcome
Excellent demonstration, thank you very much.
Super helpful mate, got me out of a jam at the campsite loool
thank you so much
you deserve a medal
Thanks, test run in the garden, back in the bag first time!
Thanks for this video it's really helpful
Why did me and my mrs spend longer arguing about how to fold the fly than you did packing the whole thing away while commentating on it too?! 😂 should’ve watched this before I went camping!
Thank you ..very helpful….I got one of these great tent..
This was very helpful to me! Thank you!
Aha! The poles and pegs first! Thank you!! :)
Worked a treat. Thanks mate!
My wife and I needed a cold drink after packing this thing up, and my mate and his daughter couldn't even get it in the bag, so thank you for this great demo. I wonder if you were a bit nervous that it wouldn't go in first time 😏
No I have packed it away alot, did the video in one take!
Yaaaas!! Watched this then nailed it! Thankyou!!
Is the central ‘star shaped’ plastic hub for the roof poles detachable? It seems with that stuck in the middle it would be difficult to roll up tightly, and it may pierce or tear the fabric as you do so.
I am gonna get one for sure👍👍👍cheers matey
How has the sealant worked against the rain leaking onto the door does it work???! Thanks!
You’re a legend. Thank you!
Are the polls in that bag as well? I can’t believe it 😅
i am wondering to buy either this or octagon 8 blackout. my concern is that blackout can get super hot in the summer but on the other hand, getting woken up with the sunrise also doesn't sound great. is this tent getting super bright or does the walls actually cover from the sunlight a bit?
Hi mate, great vid. Do you recommend this tent? I’m thinking of buying one. Laurie
did you leave the colour coded top and corners in
Cheers bro! Much appreciated. 🍻
I took photos with my phone of the tent as it was being unpacked from new. That way I had a visual reference to how it goes back in to the bag.
I have a hard time with my tent, but what helps is using a towel to push the air out.
Brilliant 👏 cheers
The big question is how you got the flamingo in the trampoline 😂 very informative
Magic!
Thank you!!
Shouldn’t the poles also fit into the bag?
Thanks !
Legend!
Thanks mate!
What do you think of the front extension for this tent is it worth It?
Seems cheaper to buy another tent and join them together?
I have looked at them as not having an awning on this tent does suck.
Saying that they are stupid money for what they are! I have been looking at other option
@@thegearshed2128 I brought one and it's not very good... had to take it down in high wind...should have just brought another tent for the money! feel a bit ripped off!!
@@Cricklewoodcoffee what sort of wind? Ours has been used in 25mph wind on a exposed sight and has been ok. These tents are not made to stand up to much more than that.
Our big steel poled tunnel was up in 30mph wind and it wouldnt have weathered much more without damage
Legend
Thanks for that
Hero
👍👍👍👍👍
Should have the straps down at the end of the tent so when you roll it they are in place ready to tie.
Aciu Jums, Jus esate OG.
Good to see you are bare foot as usual: kiwi style. I bet your neighbours don't fold their tents in their back yards without shoes. Heck, they probably don't even have tents to fold up! Probably too busy writing dissertations on the true metaphysical meaning of Brexit. ..
Ahh Brexit yes i have been building a bunker of late just incase😜
Ha ha yep no going to the shops barefoot get arrested! Allways love the look on the natives faces as i stroll across gravel like its grass in my bare feet! The english are funny about there feet my inlaws wear slippers indoors in winter and sandals indoors in summer there feet are only bare in the shower or bed very strange
