    Did you know the white tag on the outside of the bag (on the bottom) comes off to give you more bag space? I recently learned it myself, may help you fit the whole thing inside.

    I camp a lot. I actually have this very six person tent for myself. Solo camping with a cot, side table and all of my gear. It’s very comfortable. I’m 5 foot 11 and I can stand up in it. At my age I can’t sleep on the ground anymore, and I find that I am able to put this tent up by myself even though I am disabled.

    I very much appreciate you taking the time for this review. And especially the packing away part. I've looked at literally dozens of tent videos (mostly about Coleman tents) and you are the first person I've found that shows how to take the tent down and pack it away. We all know that "60 seconds to set up" part is hype.. but they ARE easy to put up. But I struggled the first time when it came time to take it down and get it back in the bag. Good job!!

    Yes. Cut that white strip to make the bag bigger. I can’t even tell you how long I wrestled this not knowing I’d never get it back in without cutting that white strip of fabric. Also, as 1 middle aged lady with a bad back and 1 out of shape old guy we were able to put this up no problem! And once I cut that fabric strip on the bag I (the middle aged bad back lady) was able to get it down and rolled up and back in the bag all by myself with no problem! If you tent camp this tent is a game changer!

  • @billymasters11

    I have one of these it’s great. So easy to set up and not as hard as some tents to put away. I wrap bungees around it to get it back in the bag.. I left it out in some torrential rain for a few days to test and no rain got in.

    I'm convinced that 6 people may actually sleep in it ,and still get fresh air. 4 mesh windows, high ceiling , and another vent for air flow. well designed. That was a wonderful review.
    I'm not a camper, just have a 2 person pop up beach tent, and I can hardly get inside by myself.

    my wife and I prefer using a queen size air mattress, wondering how well one would fit in this tent. We currently use a huge Coleman tent that's not an instant cabin and looking for a smaller but easier one to setup. This one looks like it could be a good choice. Thank you so much for posting.

    • @ErickMartinSucre
      @ErickMartinSucre  Год назад +1

      You'll want to place the bed as far back as possible so you can have some space to open and close the door. Other than that you'll be ok.

    • @cassandra.stateofmind7252

      With a queen air mattress as far back but in the middle of the tent, would there still be room in on the sides to comfortably stand up all the way (I’m 5’3) and get dressed?

    This was an excellent, easy to follow demonstration of this tent! I am wondering though if you have thought of putting the rain fly on before fully extending the legs up? Would that work? : )

    • @ErickMartinSucre
      @ErickMartinSucre  5 месяцев назад

      Rain fly? It doesn't come with one. You just close the windows and that's pretty much it.

  • @pat2383
    @pat2383 Год назад +1

    I had this tent and loved it. Sadly, it was destroyed in a tent fire but I will definitely purchase again. One thing I did not care for is the way the windows open with the flaps hanging down, I'd prefer a side open with something to clip it out of the way. But other than that, this was a great tent.

    • @ErickMartinSucre

    Good video. Looks like a good tent. Im trying to decide on it.
    How many days in a row do you keep the tent up for per camping trip? (Do you take it down every day then put it back up in evening?)
    Any tearing in fabric over time?
    Do you have any issues with water leakage?
    Does it keep the sun out good?

    • @ErickMartinSucre
      @ErickMartinSucre  4 месяца назад

      On direct sunlight, you'll feel the heat. No leakage as long as you keep all windows closed. I mostly camp just one night. No tears as of yet.

  • @adoptasleddog
    @adoptasleddog Год назад +1

    Do you have a video showing installation of the rain fly? I've seen some solo campers (smaller in size, like me) put it on while it's still only halfway up, prior to extending the legs. Any link to info on this? Thank you! Great video!

    • @ErickMartinSucre
      @ErickMartinSucre  Год назад

      It doesn't come with a rai fly because it is rain proof already.

    • @SL_Smith
      @SL_Smith Год назад +1

      I bought the seperate rain fly because 3 days of rain was enough to show me there were issues near the top of the tent without one. Also, the walls slope out so rain comes in when going in/out the door. I got a small tarp and a couple of extending tent poles and set it up like an awning to cover the door area. Kept the rain and mud out.

  • @1337MaxRabbit

    There is no mesh on the top to look up and see the sky? Maybe the newer version has this, because it looks like it does in the pictures but I do not see it in your video.

    Sorry another question. Did you seal the seams? Did you seal inside or outside (both on the tent and the rainfly). I am new to this and looking online I'm seeing conflicting info - some say inside the tent and outside on the rainfly, some say all outside. Can you ask? Again, great video!

    • @ErickMartinSucre
      @ErickMartinSucre  Год назад

      The rainfly isn't needed since it handles rains as it is. It'll fit a king-size bed but there won't be much space afterwards.

    • @ErickMartinSucre
      @ErickMartinSucre  Год назад

      You could use the stakes, but I lost mine, no idea where I put them. So far it stays stable enough during windy stays when I go island camping in Shell Key, Anclote key, Spoil Island in the east and west coast of Florida. Mind you, when it gets to 40+ miles per hour winds, it does get shaky.

    biggest question: does this tent leak?

    • @ErickMartinSucre
      @ErickMartinSucre  6 месяцев назад

      If you keep all the windows closed during a storm, no, it won't leak. I left the tent semi-open at Big Scrub campground while taking off on my atv. During the ride it started to storm a lot, like really heavy. Once the rain stopped, I headed back to the campground only to find the tent wet. I had left the windows fully closed, it would have still be dry.
