The stated color of Coyote Brown is not Coyote Brown. See photo with coyote brown pouch and tarp beneath it.

Light weight, very easy to assemble. Can be used outdoors and indoors.

This is generally a good tent. It is super easy to set up and take down, though it is a bit awkward for 1 (small) person to carry and put it in the bag. I love that I can stand up inside. It held up nicely during a windy/rainy night. I have the 3 man. It is good for 1 person camping with lots of room for gear, or 2 people if you like to sleep close. A few things I don't like - 1) there is a small hole where the pull cord goes through the ceiling. I've seen all sorts of creepy crawly things on my tent, and up near the hole. I blocked it up with some foam and velcro, but without that I would be really worried about things crawling in. 2) The gazelle logo in the ceiling reminds me of giant spiders. 3) Like lots of people mention, the doors are weird. You have to turn sideways and it's a big step to get in/out. The locations are weird too. Normally you might sleep 2 people with one on each side of the tent. However with these door locations being in the corners, you can't really do that. I am generally happy with this tent, but might also look for something else with an easier entrance, or one I can share with a friend but not have to sleep super close to each other.

Nothing about this I don't like. Great addition to the tent to keep your sleeping quarters clean and bug free. Highly recommend this.

I don't even know where to start with this sweet tent. First of all, I am writing this review because I was SUPER annoyed that NOBODY could give the inside dimensions of the 4 person, not including the porch. It looks like it is 7' x 8' by my measurement. from the end of the porch to the back of the tent is 7' with the width being 8'. This made it even MORE perfect as we have more room on the sides. Now, I wasn't 100% sure what to expect. This adorable little Hobbit Hole has a screened tent and one of the few where it is entirely enclosed. We have a very curious little Australian Shepherd that loves to get up close and personal with critters and often refuses to come into the tent. She just wants to sleep outside. Note that she is EXTRA fuzzy and sheds all year long and is always warm. Add to her conundrum of loving camping but being miserable that we had to jam her dog bed between the air mattress and the tent edge, she would be restless and end up kicking us out of bed. This little screen porch allows us to keep her fully enclosed while allowing her to stay cool and have her all-night-critter-stake-out. So you're thinking, whatever... you live in Arizona... How does this badboy hold up in the rain? Well, last night, an insane monsoon rolled in. We are talking high winds, crazy rain and hail, lightnings and rivers of water running under the tent. I had already emptied a can of Kiwi water repellant (the heavy duty camp one) on the rain fly and the seams so water was beading off of it. I was able to observe where water was hitting hardest during the gales. No leaks. We stayed in the tent for the worst of the wind so it wouldn't blow away, expecting the tie downs to pop out and the fly to at least do just that. Flyyyyy. Nope. After 45 minutes, boyfriend, Fuzzy Aussie and I headed up to the house and hoped for the best. It did rain throughout the night on and off. This morning, it was bone dry. I let it dry and then unzipped all the windows and sprayed another can of kiwi water proofing directly into the outside facing windows (and not through the screen) since that is where the fly doesn't really cover. We didn't have issues at all. It dries fast and odorless and it is just worth it to invest in a couple of cans of this magical spray and go to town. Massive difference. 5 stars all the way. I gave a 4 for durability because despite putting a tarp underneath it, the mesh bottom for drainage has a tiny hole from a rock (which I will sew together) and one of the inside door tie-backs came off the first time I tried to snap it on. Looks like it wasn't sewn together properly. I'll sew that on and good to go. But holey schnikeys, this tent is super sweet. We upgraded the tent pegs because no offense Coleman but those janky wire looking pegs haven't impressed anyone since the 60s. Just no. Our setup: - Coleman 4 person cabin style tent with screened porch - Eurmax heavy duty tent stakes (worth the investment) - Kiwi Camp Dry Heavy Duty Water Repellant - REDCAMP Large waterproof 4 in 1 Camping Tarp (we like a tarp under the tent) Like a bloody CHARM! I couldn't get the Fuzzy Australia Shepherd OUT of the tent for a change. And the little porch is even MORE amazing than I expected.

Worked perfect for our beach vacation. Light, easy to pack, the fabric is quality (and doesn't hold and) and the poles are pretty sturdy. The first time setting it up took 2 people and a little time and figuring out where and how we wanted the ropes. The next time,with the ropes already in place, it was super quick and easy. 1 person could set it up. It handled 5 - 6 mph winds, didn't have the opportunity to be in anything stronger. The shade was great. Love that a sand scoop to fill the sand bags is included. Also, it has the option (and equipment) to use stakes instead of sand bags to secure it. It easily sits 2 - 3 people using chairs. Absolutely would buy again.

Just took this tent out for a three-night camping trip and it was so perfect! We were able to comfortably fit a queen mattress, toddler/kid mattress, and pack-n-play with a ton of room to spare. My 6'4 husband could easily walk around. Setup was very fast and easy. The door zipper did get easily snagged but we got used to it. It didn't rain while we were on this trip so I'm not sure how it would stand up to that, but so far I really love it.

We have had this tent for a while. I recently bought new poles because the original set of polls broke due to heavy winds. While setting up the tent at our recent trip, the new poles broke and put a hole through the fabric of the tent. I’m a fan of Neso and their product but due to lack of thorough instructions on how to set up during wind, it has led me down this path of poles breaking and now a hole in the fabric of the tent.

Bought this for our Grandchild visits to a vacation home in Florida. Really pleased to find its extremely easy to set up and also easy to fold back into a circle for storage in its carry case. In soft sand the tent pegs need a bit of weighting to hold firm but easily solved. The baby loves the tent, it’s bigger than competitors’ products and is great for playing and taking a nap. The mesh netting allows great air circulation at the beach. It’s a first class product, well designed and made of high quality materials and we highly recommend.

I was camping out in a big, muddy field during a tropical storm, using this as a footprint/ground cloth under my 3 person Marmot Ajax 3 backpacking tent. If ever there were conditions to make a footprint fail, I was camping in them this weekend. BUT, it didn't fail! It held up like a trooper and absolutely NO WATER made it through! I took some photos of the footprint after I broke down my tent. There was no water or moisture on the top side. You may see one tiny muddy pool of water near the edge but that was from my boot stepping on it. I also posted a Pic of my muddy boots just to illustrate that the mud was 5-6 inches deep in many places. Also, if anyone is looking at this as a foot print for a 9' x 8' tent, it is a perfect fit. You can't go wrong with this. It's built like something that you'd expect to pay $50.00 for if it was made by Kelty or Marmot or any of the quality outdoor product manufacturers. I'm going to buy another for my 4 person tent. Also, if you're wondering why I camped out during a tropical storm, it was because there was a big paintball event that lasted all weekend. They didn't suspend the Invasion of Normandy simulation, so I couldn't just reschedule the camping trip.

This was a little splurge. But a must-have we set it up And has had multiple dinners outside in the colder weathers. We placed a small heater in there and we stayed warm. The quality is very good and holds up rain and light snow.

I've used this tent in fair weather so I can't attest to performance in rain but I can tell it'll be good because the bottom tarp comes up about 8 inches before the regular tent material starts. The front mud room isn't as secure from water because it has no permanent floor tarp. It does come with a tarp for that area though. But I love having the mud room. It's exactly what I was looking for. Keeps all the unnecessary stuff out of your sleeping area and helps keep debris out of there as well. I can see where this will be a great asset in muddy weather. I also like how you can have the mudroom secured or raise the entire front into an awning and chill in the shade . Build quality seems good and packs back in storage bag with out much effort.

This tent is obviously not made in America… The seams are not strong enough to even support the attention on the polls. It is totally ripped apart… No wonder they dropped the price on this tent. Don’t waste your money with people that hate you and want to sell you crap. There is no way to get a hold of customer service and once you buy it, there is no support!!!!!

I wanted the canopy instant up, but strong enough to stand in the wind. I wanted it to be big-sized, but light weight and easy carry with and manageable. This Franklin Sports Sunblocker Shelter did make me satisfied. I would like to make sure it’s working before I take it to the beach. So the very first use was in my living room, it was not so smooth than I expected. It took sometime to follow the instructions. It opened easily but it was so so struggling for two adults to take it down, despite being experienced campers and carefully following every steps in the instructions. It just did not go down. My husband luckily took it down after many tries, with no idea how he did. We had another practice setting the canopy up the other day, then it happened again. It stayed open in the backyard and unable to take down. My husband viewed several videos on Youtube, trying to get the point to close it! After trying everything we could, he used some WD40 lubricate spray on the folding hub. It magically works!! Setting it up and down was effortless after a few practice then. Focus on the canopy itself, the material are good quality and the poles are very well made. The canopy is UPF 50+ protection from UVA and UVB light, helping you stay cool and out of the harmful sunrays. With the large screen window, the air pass through and circulates, staying nice and cool while keeping you out of the sun. It’s perfect for beach or the sideline of a sports game. Its roomy interior is spacious! We, two adults with three kids, were able to put one big blanket and four beach fold chairs under it, while still having room in the back for coolers, and comfortably sit. The canopy came with its own carrying case. It's lightweight for its huge size, which is helpful when you're hauling stuff to the beach. Overall, I was glad with the product. It is perfect for my needs. It allowed us to spend much more time on the beach.

The material is good, super thick and comes with all its implements. I'm looking forward to summer to put it together and use it.
