Ozark Trail 11 Person 3 Room 14' x 14' Instant Cabin Tent (Orange)

Agreeing w most of what was said in another review:It’s big and seems well made - the front porch portion has to really be staked out correctlyTHIS IS NOT A GOOD TENT FOR COLD WEATHER. The roof is open even with the top cover over it - the gap between the cover and all screen roof is large so heat doesn’t stay trapped in. We really suffered in 40 degree weather in a really high end winter sleeping bag.Setup is probably the best part. I could put this thing up alone in 5 minutes… but taking it down to store can be tricky - I imagine we’ll learn and remember how the best way to do this is after more uses.

Such a great tent for the money! I love the size and the fact that it has an extra room. This past weekend I took my toddler camping and he loved being able to have his own room, with his own air mattress! Set up speed was super fast and easy the take down was just as easy! It can be easily be set up by 2 in less than 5 mins! Can’t wait to use it again in a few more weeks! It rained a lot while we were camping, and there were 0 leaks and no issues with bugs getting in. Zippers were super easy, as well. No getting stuck. The tent looks great when it’s completely set up. Everyone kept calling it a hotel lol but I loved the size!

The media could not be loaded. I have this for many years and I loved. I used this in a couple times and it’s very strong and spacious. Super easy to use. I love this so much

This tent is just okay. It has its perks, yes. But overall, it is not my favorite tent. For context, we are a family of 5 (2 adults 3 kids ages 7,8,11) and camp often. We have a Coleman 8 person Tenaya tent as well and prefer it over this one for sure. Here’s the pros and cons to this 11 person tentPRO:Easy to set up and take down. Although, the Coleman is very easy too.CON:Packed up, it is very long and bulky so traveling with it in a smaller car or small SUV would likely not be possible.PRO:We love having the back room in this tent. It was a major reason we decided to purchase a new tent anyways.CON:Extra back room somehow equals less main room space. It is not very wide and not very tall. I am 5’2 and by the sides of the tent, my head could almost touch. The Coleman is definitely more roomy and taller making it more comfortable overall. Our queen size air mattress could not fit along the side wall unless we wanted 0 space to get to the other side of the bed.PRO:It is well made and while we did not have any rain on this trip, I am sure it would withstand it with no issues.Overall, I would recommend this tent for a couple of kids or like 3 adults. Any more than that and there’s no room. The tent itself is not bad, and we will continue to use it since we have it. But I should have just gone with a larger Coleman.

I finally had a chance to use the tent....My family helped set it up for my camping trip... they're in a travel trailer and i joinedthem for hunting...Ten minutes later, it started to rain...I should mention that I bought a 19x23 tarp for the base.It rained, it poured, cloud burst, lightning, six hours straight.Not one leak. Stepping on the downhill side, there was a puddle that formed between the tarp and the flooring of the tent, but didn't penetrait... after a few more showers, and no leaks, I knew I bought the correct tent. Condensation was the only water I noticed.I love how roomy it is, and I'm usually a solo camper.As a retiree, I enjoyed the ease of set up, and tear down... I didn't need help setting it up, but having my family help on the first try was deeply appreciated.

I purchased this tent as a replacement to my 18 yr old Coleman Weathermaster tent. Our family has grown and we needed the extra room. I spent a lot of time considering simply purchasing the 10 person version of the Coleman but this Ozark Trail had the third small room which seemed like a nice fit for my two older kids. When I received the tent I set it up in our backyard to make sure everything worked and that I could set it up without any trouble. After decades of camping I know that Murphy's Law prevails. The tent went up okay and folded back into the bag okay but I was a little concerned that the integrated poles would become a weak link down the road as the hollow poles are made with very thin metal, and they have plastic joints.A week later we took the tent out on our first trip since having our one year old son. Upon arrival I started to set up the tent. Following the instructions I laid the tent out and unfolded the integrated poles etc. As we raised the tent one of the poles was slightly out of alignment and started to bend under the weight of the tent. We laid the tent back down and found a tear starting in the metal where the thin outer of the pole met the plastic joint. As I carefully put it back into alignment it broke completely, rendering the tent useless. My wife made the four hour trip to retrieve our old Weathermaster, and I kept the kids busy in our campsite. If you plan on camping more than once, I recommend a better brand with better quality components.

The tent itself is absolutely amazing! The downfall was how the seller packaged the item. It took us over three hours to set up because it was packaged so poorly. We had to untangle and twist it a lot. Once the tent was set up we were able to store it properly according to the instructions. Other than that downfall, the tent is perfect.
