Here in Washington State you NEVER purchase a tent with a small "umbrella" for a rain fly. They are next to useless. A proper fly should always cover the entirety of the tent body.

Yeah, that is what I did this time...yet those coleman tents CAN be nice also, gotta seam seal em proper though, they are really just 2-3 season tents...this time I went with a Eureka Midori 1 with foot, says it's only a 3 season, yet I think I could pull 4 out of it if I wish.

The trick is to loosely stake the corners at first. This keeps the tent from blowing away while you're setting it up. After getting the poles in, you then go around and adjust the stakes to set the correct tension.

I have big one of these, I think it's a 4 person. Someone threw it away in perfect shape. So I will pull it out and place it somewhere soon and seam seal it properly all over. Then I will keep my 1-2 person ultra light for packing...gotta wait for a nice sunny day of coarse...so the seals take. My ultralight I could just do in my bach apt. with all the fans on and the doors open.

I had a larger stand up height, Eureka tent; like this 30 yrs ago. It was an awesome tent; with 2 person setup. Solo today so I just bought the 4 person 60 sec cabin & set it up by myself as a trial run. At 65 yrs old, it was a piece of cake. It holds up well in rain & wind too with no leaks. Love the coleman cabin!
@tallmanfromcornwall1229
@tallmanfromcornwall1229 2 роки тому
Maybe I do it wrong, but I always put the poles in first. It's almost impossible to stake the tent out perfect, then putting the poles in leaves wrinkles and weird spots in the fabric. I feel like I need the poles first to stretch out the fabric to its proper shape - THEN stake the tent down. After all, the stakes are only meant to keep the tent on the ground in wind. The poles keep the shape.
@WardenWolf
@WardenWolf 2 роки тому
If you don't stake out a dome tent first, there won't be enough tension on the floor and it will allow wind under the tent. This is how you get flyaway tents.
@DL-ij7tf
@DL-ij7tf 2 роки тому
I stake my Coleman dome tent after putting the poles in, never had a wind problem but I guess I could see it happening. I put the poles up then go around to each corner and pull it out until it starts to drag the tent a little, to make it as taut as I can. Having two people pull diagonally definitely helps. I don't use the cheap wire L shaped stakes, I use the (also cheap) Coughlan orange 3-winged style that secure much better.
@TheTechofTech
@TheTechofTech 2 роки тому
I was going to post the same thing. Build the tent first, then tightly stake. Reverse to break down. You can much more easily manipulate the fabric of the tent around the poles. Been doing this for at least 30 years, ever since getting my first freestanding tent. Never had an issue getting proper floor tension.

Just spent the night car camping ( something my doctors said would never happen). This tent kept me dry during a heavy 2-hour rainstorm last night. Perfect for car camping.

If door is faceing wind it has a good cross ventlation .so it hot and light wind is great. But if is cold or high winds its not so great. I think rain could blow in from faceing the wind.most of the time i try to set it up so the pervailng winds are at the sides of the tent.

I've owned the 6 person Sundome for 4 years. It's a fine tent for casual camping with my son. I replaced the stakes immediately with some quality harbor freight ones for $3.99/set. I did waterproof it last year but it has not leaked hardly at all (at the beach, we had the humidity come through the side wall which is why I waterproofed it after). The guy lines dried out and I had to replace them this year with some better ones. Overall, not a bad tent. I reviewed it when we first got it on my UKposts channel as well. Appreciate it for glamping in the yard or actual camping. It took winds great as well as probably the worst thunderstorm we have had in years up here in the Northeast last week camping. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another.

I apologize if someone has already mentioned this, I question the stakes that come with the tent. I've had ones like those before and they tend to bend when putting them in the ground. I'm thinking sturdy stakes? Also, the color I actually like. It's something different from the bright neon colored ones I saw so much of when I was camping out West. Thanks Luke and Susie for all the useful information you all provide in your videos. Many blessings and stay safe.

I really enjoy your videos, I do like the Colman Sundome tents I do use my 2 man tent for storage so i have more room in my 6 man tent. One thing I do not look like about all tents is the what i call universal tent stakes they do not work vary well were I live here in Florida because there is a lot of sandy soil. They just don't work well so i have to up grade my tent stakes and toss the original tent stakes. Just a note i said a lot of sandy soil I am referring to primitive tent camping if you go to a camp site that has power and water the campsite has packed dirt with grass and the standard tent stakes will work but I like to upgrade my tent stakes to hold better anyway because you can have evening thunderstorms that may have high winds and you don't want your tent stakes to pull up and have your tent become a kite lol.

I picked up a General Grommet kit from Home Depot and then placed the tent on the tarp, marking out the locations of stake down rings. The kit comes with a hole punch, brass grommets and a wood block, it was fairly easy to use. I ended up putting two grommets adjacent to each other at each corner, for a total of eight holes, inserting the peg through one grommet/hole and bringing the curved head of the peg through the other, so that it doesn't tear up the tarp. Hope that helps!

I just had my old Sundome tent out in the back yard for a week while testing our new Columbia tent just to see how it would do, while I had hit both fly's with some waterproofing I was still impressed with how well the old tent did. Both finished the week completely dry inside despite heavy downpours (minus some drips from opening the doors), and the Coleman even survived being uprooted by the wind and tossed around (my fault for not staking it down well enough). It set the bar pretty high in my opinion, hope the new one is of the same quality.

I just ordered one of these "used" at Amazon for just $30. Bought a bottle of Coleman's seam sealer for $6. Free shipping. Supposed to be delivered today so with our nice 60 degree TX weather I should be able to take it out next week and try it out. Update: I got the "used" tent & unpacked it and is like new. All the parts are there, though I haven't spread it out and looked over every inch. I imagine it may have had a leak somewhere so I had bought the seam sealer to go with it. And of course duct tape makes for easy patching if there is a hole somewhere. Plus that put me over the $35 requirement for free shipping. Lol. Hopefully I will get out in the net week or so to try it out. I used a Eureka 2 man dome for about 20 years with dozens of trips. If this works a couple of years I'll be happy.

I missed part 1 and I'm making this moment before I know what you are going to say. It's been 1.5 years since I used it but I don't remember too much difficulty with it. Maybe putting the pins in the poles that are attached to the grommets at the ground level - think I recall it being a little tight, other than that it's been fine for me.

I like the colors and looks easy to set up. The big test will it leak? If it doesn't leak i will be shocked and i will actually buy one . Have my doubts on being waterproof. It may stay dry during a light rain , but most coleman tents can't handle moderate to heavy rain for a long period of time. If you seam seal and waterproof it yourself, it may hold up better. Hope i am wrong and it preforms flawlessly, because it is budget friendly.

I would call this a "standard cross-over dome tent with a short fly" and the set-up for every single tent of this type is functionally the same. Maybe a series of how to set up each type might be more useful than a tent-by-tent (so this video would be good for the eurohike toco, pacific pass 4, moon lence and about 1500 others). Then a video for a crossover dome with long fly (with the third pole making a domed porch). Then a tunnel tent, a-frame, frameless a-shape etc....

If I didn't get Kelty tents for 70-90 bucks a pop, I'd have probably gotten a Sundome and waterproofed/seamsealed it like crazy. I'm honestly amazed no other manufacturer follows Kelty's corner sleeve system for the poles. Fastest and easiest tent to pitch.

Have you done a review on Coleman Hooligan 2p.? I've had one for several years and love it. Dollar for dollar a great buy in my opinion. it's a Orange, single pole, 8'x 6'. I did replace the glass pole with an aluminum. Thanks.

pretty much discontinued unit though right? He's only going to make videos on stuff people can or will actually buy IMO stuff that gets used a lot, like many thousands of people using this tent and similar s.

Good idea on the doormat, but it seems kind of pointless without a full vestibule. If it starts to rain I'm either leaving my boots out to get soaked or I'm bringing muddy boots into the tent anyway to keep them dry.

I have the old Malboro version of this tent. It doesn't have the small pull out vent on the lower back and it doesn't have any steak out lines. It's basically like the dome tents we had in the late 1970s early 1980s. I've had this tent since the early 1990s. All I've had to do to it was get the spray water proofing from Walmart with the orange cap. Every 2 to 4 years I spray it down with 2 cans. One inside and one outside. I looked on UKposts and made the so called seam seller out of GW 100% silicone and mineral spirits and painted it on the seams. But before that I used regular seam sealer. I only had to do that once. Many years ago. This tent has yet to fail me. It stays dry inside. No complaints. But it is old. May have to get a new one soon. I just don't like the steak out cords. I hate tripping at nite when nature calls.LOL. . Other than water proofing it and patching a small tear in the netting on top of tent. My fault. It's been a really good tent for the past 2 1/2 to 3 decades. No complaints

So far it's not bad for the price. But the truth will be known on test night in rain. I hope it passes. I love the price and I like Coleman's other products. I have my fingers crossed 🙂. Thanks for this review. I always leave a thumbs up my freind 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

@opopopop6286
@opopopop6286 2 роки тому
absolutely, they will usually leak MINOR unless you seam seal them...and they will often leak after prolonged use ESPECIALLY if you forget the seam sealing. I always found it a super necessary step for my 1 person colemans, yet out of the box they could still at least keep 99% of the weather out, and the fly on them is one of their weaker features...also the condensation was insane, yet I am sure on this improved sunrise will be vastly better.
