[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] OMG I am excited and thrilled with my Coleman SkyDome 4 Person Camping Tent Full Fly & Vestibule. I definitely recommend this product to everyone. Me and my family love camping. Well now I love it even more thanks to this incredible product. I couldn't believe that I could set it up in 5 minutes but I did. One of the amazing features that this product has is 5 Minute Set-Up System with pre-attached poles. I also love that it keeps out flys and has protected entry so it was wonderful when we had a hard summer storm and everything inside was dry as a bone and no rain came in. I also love that it holds my queen size air mattress and didn't have to fight and shove to get it in. So if you love camping like me you're going to love this product. I do and can't wait to go camping again this weekend. This product is made with strong frame,welded tube like floor inverted seams water resistant coated fabric zipper cuff covers. I love that not only is it easy to set up but it is just as easy to break down and put back in bag and it's set for next camping trip. This is definitely better than any other brand I have previously used.Did I mention I love this product. Trust me you will to.
I paid 189.95 for this, which is full price (didn’t have my act together for the last sale). I haven’t actually use this yet, but did put it up to see if I wanted to keep it. First impressions: 1. Kind of weird because if you don’t have the rain fly on, the entire inside of the tent can be seen. In warm weather, I don’t know why one would have the rain fly on, but would need for privacy. 2. I was able to set it up by myself (even though the instructions are poor – thanks youtube for help), even though they recommend 2 people. 3. The blue loop and hook to keep the vestibule door wrapped up doesn’t really work. The loop is really large, and the hook doesn’t stay in it. I might be missing something here, but am going to have to figure out something to make that work. See attached pictures. 4. The pole for the fly attachment was awkward to get in. The opening was very small, and the metal connectors on the pole kept getting caught. In addition, there is nothing on the ends of this pole – just the metal connector, and it seems like it could tear the fabric when pushing through. 5. I will be keeping this tent, as it will just be an extra sleeping space at my cabin.
You can’t set this thing up in five minutes. Full stop. It’s not possible. Not if you guy it out the way you need to and put on the rain fly. That said, I really like this tent. I like the pockets, I like the vents, I like the fact I can pull in an extension cord for my devices to charge at night. It’s got lots of places inside to attach carabiners and hang gear or coats. The vestibule is wonderful for storing gear that you don’t want cluttering up your tent. The price is great too, especially for what you’re getting. But you won’t be pitching it in five minutes.
I received this tent. Upon assembling prior to camping trip I discovered one of the attached fiber glass tent poles is broken. It makes the tent more difficult to put together and I am scared it will be an issue camping with an elementary school child and a one-year-old. The stakes are also missing. One of the seam in the back of the tent has a defect. There are runs in the mesh. The seams are already taped. It was packaged nicely in the box. The packaging seemed freshly minted, and did not give any signs of being a used tent. So this must be a manufacturing issue. I have a defective tent and my son’s soap box derby begin Friday night. It is Sunday. He worked so hard on his car I have to make sure he makes it to the race.

nice and roomy tent for my needs. The rainfly is nice and large, however I didn't get a chance to test that out yet. I did have to seam seal the bottom seam where the walls attach to the floor, but the fly does cover that, but I don't want to take chances. I do love the vestibule, it creates a nice space for entering the tent. Fit my cot and air mattress well, but my head did hit the mesh screen It easier to assembly then most, however the "5 minute setup" is a lie for the normal person. After getting use to it, I can see a 15 minute set up, but 5 minutes is a myth. Durability is yet to be determined.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This 4-person tent worked really great for two people out in the west Texas desert. It kept us protected from the sun during the daytime and held up against some moderate winds, despite being quite lightweight. I found the setup and breakdown to be fairly easy — the carrying case is pretty exact to the size of the tent, so packing it up requires being somewhat deliberate. The built in poles are convenient but I worry about being able to replace them if needed in the future. A surprise rainstorm and some chilly desert nights tested the limits of this tent though, I think it's best for summers and fair conditions.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Coleman - Skydome 4- Person Camping Tent with Full-Fly Vestibule, Evergreen & my Family & I just Love it. This tent is roomy enough for 4 people , no bumping elbows when we sleep. I love the skydome, I can lay & look at the stars at night. The netting makes for a nice breeze on those hot nights. The extra cover that goes over it keeps everything dry, you never have to worry if it rains. I highly recommend this tent to all you Campers, you'll be very Pleased ! This is really well made & will last for many camping trips with my Family .
I cannot accurately rate this tent at this time. It is middle of winter and this tent was purchased only for summer motorcycle trips. If there is a way for me to offer a review in a few months, I will be happy to do a proper review once we have used it a bit. As for the design, I love it. Having the vestibule outside the tent should help keep the inside much cleaner than tents we've had in the past. Dirty shoes or boots can be left outside where they belong without danger of them getting soaked in the event of rain over night.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this tent. Took it camping recently and I'm really happy with how easy it was to set up. I love how roomy it is too. There's also a nice entry way which makes your tent space feel bigger and it's a good spot to put things you don't want inside your tent but don't want out in the open either. I also really likes the storage pockets. It worked like a charm and fit my queen size air mattress perfectly. I am super pleased and would definitely recommend!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this tent to use while camping for the first time after Covid with my family of 3. I went in with a 4 person tent knowing that it'll be comfortable for 3, and like with most other tents, that was a spot on decision. Fitting in 4 adults would be cozy. The tent is relatively straight-forward to setup. It keeps in place with winds. The height once setup is decent for a camping tent. The pockets, loops etc to put stuff are nice too. It is easy enough to get in and out of the tent. The only caveat is that packing it back once done into the same bag it came in is not easy/obvious. I fiddled with it for about 10 minutes but then gave up and put it directly in the trunk as I was running out of time. So this part wasn't a deal-breaker for me but for someone backpacking, this could be important. Overall, this is a nice tent and I can see it using more.
