[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We absolutely love our Coleman Dark Room Skydome camping tent! It was so easy to set up. It is very well made It comes with a carrying bag which is nice, we also like that the poles to this tent stay attached and had a little Velcro strap that keeps them all together, there is a nylon cover for the top of the the tent to prevent rain from entering. It also provides adequate room for up to 6 people to sleep comfortable It holds a big queen size air mattress easily and it stays pretty dark. I would definitely recommend it to those who are looking for space and comfort.
Received today. Opened to check it out before our family camping trip and.... Pole connections are rusty and corroded. The material they use isn't up to snuff and clearly not tested or they don't care. If they can't hold up in a box in a warehouse without starting to rot out, they definitely won't withstand the elements.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this tent so far! I haven't taken it on the road yet but have camped in quite a few tents around the US in various degrees (from 36 degrees to 90). This tent was so easy to set up. The poles are pre-attached to two of the corners so you just have to unfold them and guide them in place on the top of the tent. The rain fly was also so easy! Our first try (there were two of us, but this could easily be done by one person) it took us about 5 minutes to set up (which is what the tent estimated). This beats setting up my old small two person tent by about 5 full minutes. The inside was very spacious and dark (see the photo!) It lived up true to it's name. I loved the inner pocket and hammock at the top of the tent to hold gear you want to quickly find (flashlight in the middle of the night). I also loved how it actually fit back into the bag it came in. Coleman put extra space in the bag so you don't struggle getting it back packed away. Overall the packed away size is still small and perfect for car camping! Highly recommend. This could definitely fit 6 as advertised!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am absolutely ecstatic about my 6-Person Dark Room Skydome Camping tent in blue that I purchased a month ago! This was the best purchase I've me in a long time! The room in it is beyond words! It's 6 foot tall in the middle and can sleep 6. It was so easy to set up and take down. There was plenty of room for our whole family and it's so durable. It even has a cover for rain and you can tie it down in case the weather gets bad. My children and my basset hound had the absolute best time camping and because this tent was so durable and easy to set up and take down, we had lots of time to enjoy our little vacation. We have decided to take another camping trip soon and can't wait to use it again. My son has some health issues and this tent has Dark Room Technology which blocks 90% of the sunlight and reduces heat in the tent, which makes it better for people that have issues with the heat. This works amazingly too, because my son stayed cool and we were able to enjoy our trip because of this. It's also been designed and tested for storm conditions, which helps me breath much easier knowing we are safe. The amount of room in this tent is unlike any tent I have ever seen. The carrying bag made it so easy to take along, the wide door design made it easier to get in and out of, the storage pockets gave us room to put stuff out of the way, and the detachable rainfly gave me peace of mind. I felt so safe and secure and could focus on my trip and having fun with the kids knowing we chose this tent! We love it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have not actually done any camping with this yet however, did set it up and fax. It is a five minute set up so easy that my child did it for me it is huge. The tent is quite large definitely able to fit six person. It is a dome in a dark room so high ceilings. Plenty of space definitely dark blocks out 90% of the sunlight verified highly recommend Coleman is a great brand, I can imagine this lasting as a lifetime of camping trips
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great little tent! I would have given it 5 stars if it didnt need a repair right out of the package. One of the corner straps where you put a tent stake was not sewn in right. It's not a huge deal if you know how to sew like me, but I don't like having to fix a brand new item. Besides that flaw this tent is great. The entire top of the tent is screen, if you want to leave the rainguard off you can get a good breeze going in there. Once you put the rainguard on, it is pitch black inside. It really does keep it cooler inside though. I put this tent up in the evening when it was 80 degrees, the tent stayed cool all night even with the front window flap open. There was zero condensation on the inside of the tent in the morning, and it is very humid where I live. That is a huge plus for me because I have never had a tent that didnt get soggy overnight. This tent is very roomy inside, it also has a multipocket flap on the inside for storing things in. It also has a little hammock for the ceiling for storing a light or some snacks. The setup is very easy, I wouldnt say 5 minutes, maybe more like 15. Although I may be able to put it up faster the next time I have to. All in all I think this is a great tent with nice innovations.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried the Coleman 6 person Dark Room Skydome Camping Tent and it is amazing! This tent is huge! We can easily and comfortably fit two adults and three preteen kids inside. We also placed a blow up queen sized mattress inside to test and it still had plenty of room to move around. I love how easy the tent was to set up. The poles are built into the tent so no worrying about losing one in between uses. I also really loved the dark room feature. Once all zippers are closed it is pitch black inside, no light gets in at all. The tent is also very easy to disassemble and in spite of how large the tent is is very compact and easy to store. The quality of this tent is really great and I know we have a blast using it for quite some time! I would highly recommend this tent!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, even the packaging was nice and easy to open. The tent comes with everything needed to just set it up and go. It was very easy to put up and did not take long at all. Very durable and the dark room technology is definitely there(you really get darkness). We noticed the ability to expand the bag to replace the tent when not in use, a great feature by the way!! The overhead storage and side pockets are nice. Overall a great tent, and we are looking forward to our next trip out with it!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was for an upcoming family camping trip. We set it up in the backyard first to so it would be familiar. Easy to set up. Directions were clear. The tent itself seems durable. There are no windows per say. Instead there are screen openings which are somewhat protected by the overhead cover thus allowing for constant airflow. The darkening technology keeps the light out. Says sleeps 6 but it would really only fit 3 older kids or 2 to 3 adults comfortably.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the 6-Person Dark Room™ Skydome™ Camping Tent, Blue for a family camping trip. My family of 4 loved this tent. The removable top is amazing. If you have clear skies and remove the top it is like sleeping under the stars without worrying about mosquitoes, other bugs and critters. With the top on and strapped down correctly the dark room effect is pretty awesome. We were able to sleep in a little later than normal due to the darkness of the tent.
