I got this tent for $70 on clearence at walmart today
Is it okay?
It was regular like $180 so I feel like it's a deal
I've never been camping
It blocks out the sun which would be good for the upcoming hot days if I wanna go and stuff

Looks pretty decent for hunting/ car camping. Probably heavy and slow to set up

On one hand $70 for a 6 person tent is a heck of a value, I'm not sure you could buy equivalent tarps and straps for that. On the other hand those big Colemans weigh like 20lbs and take forever to set up. If you are driving to a campsite then yeah its good, RIP in pieces if you want to hike somewhere with that + gear.

I'm doing minivan camping so size and weight not an issue.
Will slap a folding 4" mattress in there with a fan powered by a battery.
It looks like it leaks on the edges during rain but I can rain proof it/ use a tarp/ sleep in the middle/ not camp in the rain

How much space would you have left over after say putting a queen air mattress in there. Like the netted porch, good buy dude.

Dunno, I just have a single-sized folding mattress.
Reviews say it definitely wouldn't fit two of the queen sized ones though.

It will be one of the most amazing tents you've ever used...
...all three times you use it before it falls apart.

Not a bad return on investment. He could have bought 3 normie tier 30 dollar bottles of liquor and gotten drunk 3 times had "fun" have spent more money have less memories and be worse off. Go op.

I disagree with this, these Coleman tents are usually built strong and meant to have stupid kids thrashing around in them, which is why they weight a ton. Waterproofing is typically where they fall short.

Give one kid a cheap Coleman and another kid an extra premium ultralight and see which one lasts longer.

I agree. I have the 4 person version and I love the thing. Fiberglass poles and a bit clunky compared to my backpacking tents, but all in all a great tent for glamping when the opportunity arises.

Enough room for a queen mattress (but not much else) in the 4 person tent. I used a double inflatable mattress when I hauled it out to an island on my kayak... Totally worth it for the luxury

The screen patio is amazing too. You can barely fit a couple of small chairs in, but I imagine it's roomier in the 6 person.

I'm jealous of your deal: I got mine for 120 and I don't regret it. I can't say I've used it a ton but it's a luxury item I have around for the rare glamping trip with family.
