@@turtle1906 Yeah when I looked it up online that was what it stated. That may be considering the vestible area. I would estimate the actual inside floor side to be more like a 5x7 foot space, but there is a picture online of a queen size air mattress fitting in it. We used two exped mats inside and those mats are 60" wide. They took up the majority of the tent floor space width with about a foot and half or so at the foot end.
I’ve used them in fair weather camping for years. I’ve had good luck with them. Also I did do extra seam sealing on them. But for $35 it’s a great tent.
I used an Ozark Trail 4P for many years while in college. It was a great budge tent. Finally sprung a leak after about 5 years that seam seal couldn't fix.
I have both the 3 & 4 person predecessors of this tent and they are now 15 years old. They have held up through 26 degree weather in a mountain setting and a 3-4 day driving rainstorm in my back yard. I agree with your observations about the high cut rain fly in relation to the fabric side panels. On the older 3 person tent the rainfly does come farther down the side of the tent. My models have a different front door zipper design, so I can't comment on that. Here is what I can say. The Ozark Trail 3,4 & 6 person tents are great casual camping tents-think car camping. They are spacious and have great floors. Their rainflies all fall short when pushed in bad weather. So I've learned to pair them with true camping tarps to enhance their capabilities against colder and inclement weather. Pair them with a good camping tarp and they become heroic in performance. If the tarp is of sufficient size it can be configured to give the sidewall and overhead rain, snow and wind protection well beyond what the tent is rated to withstand. These tents are great options for people who can't or don't want to spend hundreds of dollars on higher end tents.
Poor kid, lousy time for your tent to fail! I've used Ozark tents in the past - they are usually good for 2 to 3 years before something either breaks or rips. Still, for the cost, they perform well for the duration. The old phrase of "you get what you pay for" always holds true for the most part. You paid 1/3 the cost of a cheap hotel room and survived the night, so it's all good. Great review, as usual. Cheers! Happy Holidays!
It's always part of the adventure! These tents are fine for regular fair weather family campground situations. I'm the outlier in terms of serious but for most people who camp 3 or 4 weekends a year this type of tent is fine. In fact I think its probably what most people use. Cheers and happy holidays!!! 🏂
The biggest problem with Ozark Trail gear is you don't know which item is great and which is junk until you spend your money. Their insulated mugs and coolers are 90% of a Yeti for a small fraction of the cost. I wish their brand was consistent. Great review.
I always buy a heavy duty tarp that covers the whole tent and when it rains or is wendy i put a tarp under the tent then over the tent and tie the tarp down to the ground with extra steaks and it worls perfect
Got it last summer forth of July camp trip 4 days not vac we are going to buy a Coleman 8 person instant cabin tent ⛺ could ya do a video on it for your opinion on it thanks 😊
Great honest and fair review! I do have this tent as an extra tent whenever we have guest who would like to join us during car camping trips! This tent has held up real well! I had this tent for a while now and never had a problem with it. If you wanna use it for a more rugged/backcountry camping trip, just make sure to bring 2 heavy duty tarps. One to put on the ground and another on top for more protection against harsh weather conditions.
Let’s bash the $35 “Walmart” tent. But, let’s not talk about the “regular” tents “mechanical zipper failure” that left the tent useless when you need it the most, causing you a headache of running around and buying whatever was available. Sounds to me like the Ozark trail $35 from “Walmart” saved your ass without emptying your bank account. That’s a good way to be thankful and even less way to be considerate that your “regular” tent failed on. Let me guess you spent a few hundred dollars on that too huh?
Just to clarify, I was not bashing the Walmart tent at all. In fact I thought it's performance was great in the high winds it was subjected to. It wasn't designed for those conditions and I thought it performed pretty well based on weather we had that night. My other tent, the Eureka Midori 6, required a thorough zipper cleaning and waxing of the zippers, which I completed when I got home and it was back in business. I think some of the desert sand might have got into it while camping in New Mexico earlier that week. But I had owned the Midori 6 for about 6 years before this trip and the zipper split issue was the first failure I had in that tent. So really, that tent owed me nothing after 6 years of excellent performance. Trust me, I was happy to have the Walmart tent for sure. It just wasn't designed for what I was using it for. But for your average camper in an average campground the Walmart 4P would be a solid tent. I had owned an Ozark Trail Walmart tent about ten years earlier which had a rainfly that went all the way to the ground, I was disappointed that Ozark Trail went away from that design to the canopy style. I had used my previous Ozark Trail tent in some really nasty thunderstorms all around the Canadian Great Lakes region without ever springing a leak or having any issues. Just thought I would put it in perspective for you. Cheers.
What's your problem dude? She does reviews on many camping equipment thats the whole purpose of this channel if you don't like her honestly then maybe you should go sit in therapy group where you can talk about your feelings about other peoples channels you don't agree with 🙄
Little rant:yes its a 35 dollar tent but depending on how much you get paid.someone works quite a few hours to work for this plus the money to cover the price they just sacrificed,sense they are on a budget as a person..ozark trail:LOWER YOUR PRICES ON YOUR BUDGET PRODUCTS FOR BUDGET FOLKS!
I just purchased one for Infield camping for a nascar race in Darlington SC. Its a Labor Day weekend race (first week of September) so I'm hoping it'll be good for the track camping.
When I was homeless I bought a tent from walmart to sleep In it brought in condensation and made everything inside wet and moist especially in the morning so I went and bought a regular tarp for $5 at harbor freight along with some cord I tied a string from one tree to the other staked the ends down with tent spikes from Walmart threw some cardboard inside and I was toasty warm with three sleeping bags I bought at goodwill I slept really warm and the snow didn't pack on the top like a tent it just slid down the side in the morning I just had to scoop the snow away i was able to survive for 3 months in my makeshift tent in the snow and one night they had 60 mph winds!! I was scared that night but I was down in the ditch with trees around me so I think the trees help block the wind maybe made the wind down to 40mph but still that is a good tent for only like $10 total with the tent and stakes ..
Walmart is not so bad this year in ice cold montana I’ve slept outside in -13 degrees lol with a Walmart bag it cost me $60 total and is much too big for me so I stuffed it with three fleece blankets still the total cost of my sleep system and may that I sleep on is $112 total I bought the fleece blankets at goodwill and I made a sleep mat out of a car windshield I found and I bought some of that same stuff in a roll at Lowe’s and just doubled it it keeps the body warm o yeah reflectix is what it’s called good stuff but that’s better than paying $1000 is what people pay for a good cold weather sleeping bag if I added another sleeping bag I’m sure I could get down to -21 easily
I mean who reviews a tent and not show what's inside, that's like giving someone shoes without socks or pancakes without syrup or milk without cereal or an aircraft carrier without aircrafts or a UFO without bright lights, it's MADNESS.
Quite a few years ago I was setting up my tent at Lake Scott State Park in western Kansas and a freakishly strong gust of wind grabbed the tent out of my hand and blew it clear out into the lake. This was late at night in March and it was too cold to swim for it. Guess what? My replacement tent was an Ozark Trail 2-person hex dome, because Walmart was the only store I could find in the area that had tents. I think it was a better design than the one you got, and we ended up using that tent a lot until the zippers snd waterproofing were finally dead
Enjoyed the video! Thanks for sharing your adventures. Walmart has a OZ trail "2 person hiker" tent that has a better fly arrangement for $44. I wonder how that one would have done in your situation.
I would have taken anything with a decent rain fly for wind protection but the selection at the store was just not there. Unfortunately being the off season I had the choice between this tent and a similar model 6P because the camping section was sized down for winter. There are few Walmarts in West Texas and few tents ar these Walmarts!
Got mine cheaper by 10 bucks. Really enjoy knowing I can always sinch the budget down a little bit. 10 bucks I can always put towards the next piece of equipment
I was thinking it would probably hold up with the guy lines secured. Maybe a little duct tape on the rain fly in the direction the wind was blowing would've gave you a bit more peace. Good review thanks.
That was the Eureka Midoris 6. Although that tent was several several seasons old when it failed so I don't think it owed me anything by the time it failed.
Thanks a lot. Looking for a good quality tent. Want to do more camping and my 20 year old Ozark Trail 8 person finally gave up . You seemed very sad that your tent gave up. So I thought it must have been a REALLY GOOD tent.
I know exactly what you went through had the same thing happen to me about three years ago zipper failed and had to get a no name tent as I was car camping in a place there was only a small canadian tire available with very minimal selection! Made the best of it but it was horrible lol! Thank you for another video! Merry Christmas to you and yours hope you have a great one!
It would be nice to see how big it looks on the inside but you only showed the outside, i guess ill have to keep searching youtube for that inside view.
I have this tent and the only issue I have had with it is the little mud mat strap broke it’s tie down loop. I think it should have a metal ring instead of them sewing a piece of tarp to it. I have always used these tents on horse camping trips when growing up, and now just as a weekend warrior style camping. To me the rain fly I like, because it allowed venting with it on. However as long it doesn’t rain I won’t use them as I get really hot and want to see the night sky.
Sleeping with the fly off is a great option as the temps climb in the summer. I was overall really impressed with this tent, especially given that we put it through some conditions it clearly was not designed for. It really is a quality tent. I used an Ozark Trail 5x7 foot tent regularly while in college and beyond with no failures or issues.
Thanks for sharing your experience with your tent. I use budget tents all the time. Your review is what I would expect for a budget tent. Good for general light car camping and short backpacking in fair weather conditions. I have been watching your channel recently and you do a good job with your reviews and your ratings are generally honest and fair.
I have this tent, as you mentioned just for occasional camping in a campground. It was just the cheap option to replace my well worn older one that got thrown away by someone else. I found this page by trying to figure out if a cot or two would fit inside it, but haven't had luck finding that info. We DID get the "opportunity" to test out the rain resistance, and that back zipper didn't seem to be any trouble. For $35, it's a good little tent- I agree though, if you're seriously into camping, you want something better. We made the mistake of not locking up our bread, so a squirrel ate a hole in the tent to get to the bread. It's worth patching.
I will bet that at 26 degrees F this tent is probably rain proof. But at that temperature I'd worry more about it being ice proof. Wow! You really like to live dangerously. I thoroughly enjoyed your video.
Let me know if you guys have ever used one of the Ozark Trail tents and what your outcome was!
Nice!
How long is the tent?
@@turtle1906 It is 8ft x 8.5ft with a peak height of 48".
Lone Crow Adventures it’s 8ft long ?
@@turtle1906 Yeah when I looked it up online that was what it stated. That may be considering the vestible area. I would estimate the actual inside floor side to be more like a 5x7 foot space, but there is a picture online of a queen size air mattress fitting in it.

Lights out folks! Actually I've used an Ozark trail tent for years. Never failed.
I used to use one too when I first started out years ago. Now I'm such a gear nut I have I think 5 or 6 tents.
Water repellent sprayed 2x a season keeps water out, spray heavily on seams, clean it inside/out after every outing
Yep. For $35 it's been a pretty great tent actually!!!!
I think it would have been more wind proof on the inside of you had an extra tarp to put over it.
I agree totally. It would have provided wind block for sure.
You should take a tarp with you to avoid weather conditions in case of, and then make the video without it, just to sleep well un the night.
Looks very windy there!
Not sure how strong the gusts were but the steady wind was 55mph!
I've used from a 16 man to a 2 man Ozark trail tent. I carried my 2 man for a 12 wk hike. It lasted over 1,000 miles.
Wow! That's impressive. Where were you hiking?
I've used Ozark Trail tents and camping equipment for years and I've got no complaints 🙂
I've had the same tent and slept out in heavy rain and wind no worries 🤠
Wow! I wasn't expecting such a high rating for this tent. Great review! Stay safe out there!
Given the conditions it faced I was surprised how well it actually stood up.
I'm on year number 9 with my $35 Ozark Trail tent! Planning on using it again this weekend for 2 nights.
Wow that's amazing 👏 have you had to reapply any waterproofing to it overvthe years?
I’ve used these tents, mostly the first couple years I started camping. I’ve upgraded since then but they are decent for fair weather use.
Yeah honestly they're not bad.
I have both the 3 & 4 person predecessors of this tent and they are now 15 years old. They have held up through 26 degree weather in a mountain setting and a 3-4 day driving rainstorm in my back yard.

I'm surprised it held up so well. My experience with these tents has not been as delightful.
I was surprised as well given the conditions to which it was subjected.
i put this tent up in my back yard. Because my tent from last year broke. The only thing I don't know how to do is put up the guylines
Just tie them on and make sure you pound them in at a 44 degree angle towards the tent so they don't pull out in the wind!!!
Not too awful considering the emergency. Way to go.
Yeah it worked 8n a pinch!
i had a couple Ozark Trail tents that got wet, this one in particular was ok at best in the rain, but the other ones were pretty good in the rain
I'm glad it didn't rain on this trip. I've had food luck on the past with ot tents but wasn't in a hurry to test that feature out in cold temps!
The biggest problem with Ozark Trail gear is you don't know which item is great and which is junk until you spend your money. Their insulated mugs and coolers are 90% of a Yeti for a small fraction of the cost. I wish their brand was consistent. Great review.
I agree with you entirely. Backpacks failed, some of their tents fail. Sleeping bags are decent for warm weather.
I always buy a heavy duty tarp that covers the whole tent and when it rains or is wendy i put a tarp under the tent then over the tent and tie the tarp down to the ground with extra steaks and it worls perfect
Yes I was wishing I had an extra tarp on this night just to help with the wind.
After you put the poles in the rainfly and clip it to the main poles there are straps to strap it to the main Pole and it won't pop off anymore
Hey thanks for the pro tip!
We bought a Ozark Trail Yurt tent do ya have a experience with that tent 🎪
Got it last summer forth of July camp trip 4 days not vac we are going to buy a Coleman 8 person instant cabin tent ⛺ could ya do a video on it for your opinion on it thanks 😊
No, but I thought about turning it into a hot tent!
I did a review of the Coleman Cabin 6 and Coleman 10p Darkroom Instant tent. Here's the link to the 6p ruclips.net/video/ltsVRUHQDQg/видео.html
Most extreme unboxing I have ever seen 😱
That's hilarious!!!
I use mine every October in the smokies..........never had a problem in 6 years.
Yeah this one is a few years old now and going strong yet.
Try to get to the point of the title and skip the personal reasons and apologies.
Hmmmm interesting

Would you recommend this for first time campers? I’m going in Missouri so weather is nice and calm.
Sure thing that would be perfect for a first trip!
Lone Crow Adventures alright, thanks so much!
That's a tent when kids wanna sleep outside in the backyard..
Yeah it was the only thing we could find when our regular tent broke down on a trip!
When you first got it set up you were over it lol ..You WANTED to rag on it .....
I bet that tent under a tarp would fair well
It performed pretty well given the conditions to which it was exposed. Performed much better than expected.

I use that tent in the white mountains in NH it works good have a good sleeping bag and pad
You poor soul. You never cease to entertain us with your comedy!
Awe. Thanks for tuning in!
It sounds like a tent for warmer weather camping allowing for more ventilation so you don't get too hot
Yep, you are exactly right!!!!
Considering it for a trip with friends in Florida
I doubt 55mph , u meant gust up to 55mph 😂
I believe you are correct

I agree. Some stuff is just way too expensive for what it is.
You make good points! Use the right gear for the right situations...Thanks for sharing.
I thought this tent did fabulously given what it was up against. Great for the family campground.
I just purchased one for Infield camping for a nascar race in Darlington SC. Its a Labor Day weekend race (first week of September) so I'm hoping it'll be good for the track camping.
This tent is absolutely perfect for this type of scenario. Good luck!
Looks like it held up ok. You were a bit exposed on that tent pad too in the wind.
The wind was crazy!
When I was homeless I bought a tent from walmart to sleep In it brought in condensation and made everything inside wet and moist especially in the morning so I went and bought a regular tarp for $5 at harbor freight along with some cord I tied a string from one tree to the other staked the ends down with tent spikes from Walmart threw some cardboard inside and I was toasty warm with three sleeping bags I bought at goodwill I slept really warm and the snow didn't pack on the top like a tent it just slid down the side in the morning I just had to scoop the snow away i was able to survive for 3 months in my makeshift tent in the snow and one night they had 60 mph winds!!

Wow that's amazing! You go girl!!!!
Really wanted to see setup, wasn't there
I'll keep that in mind for future videos. Thanks for the feedback!
Walmart is not so bad this year in ice cold montana I’ve slept outside in -13 degrees lol with a Walmart bag it cost me $60 total and is much too big for me so I stuffed it with three fleece blankets still the total cost of my sleep system and may that I sleep on is $112 total I bought the fleece blankets at goodwill and I made a sleep mat out of a car windshield I found and I bought some of that same stuff in a roll at Lowe’s and just doubled it it keeps the body warm o yeah reflectix is what it’s called good stuff but that’s better than paying $1000 is what people pay for a good cold weather sleeping bag if I added another sleeping bag I’m sure I could get down to -21 easily

Good point.
I found with small rainfly I would put a tarp over the mesh and run it to ground
I had a rain tarp in the car too and thought about it but opted not too. It was so windy I didn't want to lose my good tarp. I should have.

What is the tent brand that had the zipper failure?
That was the Eureka Midoris 6. Although that tent was several several seasons old when it failed so I don't think it owed me anything by the time it failed.
Thanks a lot. Looking for a good quality tent. Want to do more camping and my 20 year old Ozark Trail 8 person finally gave up . You seemed very sad that your tent gave up. So I thought it must have been a REALLY GOOD tent.

Good luck.
Very nice. Not my top choice, and I'm sure not yours either, but looks like it got the job done!
It did but I was surprised how windy it was inside the tent!
I know exactly what you went through had the same thing happen to me about three years ago zipper failed and had to get a no name tent as I was car camping in a place there was only a small canadian tire available with very minimal selection! Made the best of it but it was horrible lol! Thank you for another video! Merry Christmas to you and yours hope you have a great one!
So let me guess you had to pick a Broadstone tent? I think that's the crappy tire brand. Outbound is another store brand they carry a lot of as well
@@LoneCrowAdventures you guessed right! Used it the remainder of the trip and then donated it to value village!
It would be nice to see how big it looks on the inside but you only showed the outside, i guess ill have to keep searching youtube for that inside view.

I have been watching your channel recently and you do a good job with your reviews and your ratings are generally honest and fair.
Awe. Thanks for the feedback, that means a lot. I always try to rate products according to their intended use and take that into consideration.
Should have bought yourself a $5 tarp and you' would have been good
Yes I though about that as well!
Where are you seriously buying a five dollar tarp anymore!?
I have this tent, as you mentioned just for occasional camping in a campground. It was just the cheap option to replace my well worn older one that got thrown away by someone else.
I found this page by trying to figure out if a cot or two would fit inside it, but haven't had luck finding that info.
We DID get the "opportunity" to test out the rain resistance, and that back zipper didn't seem to be any trouble. For $35, it's a good little tent- I agree though, if you're seriously into camping, you want something better.
We made the mistake of not locking up our bread, so a squirrel ate a hole in the tent to get to the bread. It's worth patching.
Those little squirrels can be destructive if food is in the tent for sure! Good luck!
I will bet that at 26 degrees F this tent is probably rain proof. But at that temperature I'd worry more about it being ice proof. Wow! You really like to live dangerously. I thoroughly enjoyed your video.
Thanks for checking it out. Yeah we were low on options when our first tent failed. Thankfully we were able to pick this one up!
