I reveiw the Coleman 10 Person Dark Room Cabin camping Tent with Instant Setup. I was dissapointed in the Coleman 10 Person Dark Room Instant Cabin Tent. Coleman boasts that their Coleman 10p Darkroom tent is an instant cabin tent is an instant tent. The Coleman dark Room 14x10 Instant Tent is a large family camping tent that requires two people to set up. I found that it took around 20 minutes with two people to set up the Coleman Instant Darkroom Tent. Unfortunately the Coleman Darkroom 10 Person Tent Review is not good, as the dark room cabin tent is plagued with problems. Most these stem from the design of the Coleman Dark Room Cabin Tent with Instant Setup's rain fly design flaw, causing massive amounts of water to pour directly over you entryway. The seams around the window also leaked badly and there was a lack of storage inside the tent.
If you are looking for a more reliable and more affordable tent check out the Coleman 6 Person Instant Cabin Tent which performed much better in wind, rain and in snow. Review here: • COLEMAN CABIN TENT WIT...

I was looking for a tent to have a black light party, games and activities for the kids while on our family reunion camping trips. It may also be nice in the backyard for glow parties and Halloween 🎃. The swing out door is convenient especially for the kids. And the bright colors make it look like a carnival🎪. I will definitely take the extra time to seal the seams and spray on some silicone. More steaks are a must too. But BEFORE we get more than a moderate rainfall, we will definitely be taking down this tent!⛈🌬. Great video, thanks for sharing!

I love your honest reviews! I have had this tent up in my backyard for a solid 2 months straight (in hot, dry eastern Washington summer) and it has held up well. We had a horrible wind storm last week and the rain fly was literally ripped to shreds but the actual tent was fine. I agree there are a lot of issues with this tent as you mentioned, but if you are in a dry, very sunny climate I think you’ll appreciate having a nice dark tent. That being said, I definitely prefer the Ozark trail instant tent and probably won’t repurchase this one as it’s a little too dark for me.

Question…if the corners of the rain fly were staked out say 18” from the tent, wouldn’t that make it more taught over the doors and windows? I’m a retired EMT and just got into camping. Need something bigger than my 4 person Coleman. At 5’9”, I want to be able to stand up! And sit without the walls hitting me. I’d like the space for when it rains.
@LoneCrowAdventures
@LoneCrowAdventures 2 года назад
Unfortunately I had this staked as tight as the bathtub floor would allow. You could maybe add guy line to extend out the rainfly. I'd encourage you to look at the 6p cabin tent vs this one. Much more stable and you could still stand up.

Yes, I think you were being a bit critical on your analysis of this tent. I appreciate the wet weather testing as I just purchased the non dark room version of this tent. Most of the issues you have come across I already have solutions for and are quite easy to fix. However, I do understand that at $250 price tag, most of said issues shouldn't even be there. My biggest concern was the leakage, and I will be getting some sealer to address the leakage issue. The solution to: room divider would be use some small plastic alligator clips to affix the fabric to the side wall. Rain fly. Use a spare or old fiberglass rod from a previous tent and wedge the ends in the rain fly across the middle of the tent. Strap for rain fly. A small light grade ratchet strap could be used to replace the strap entirely. JMO. Thanks for the review, I appreciate it.

This is a great, honest review. You point out the things we don’t automatically think about when choosing a tent. I hate how most tent walls flare out at the bottom, making an A shape. Solely because if it rains the lower parts of the walls eventually get so wet that water starts coming inside. I think when camping in the rain you just need a tarp large enough to go over the entire tent with some to spare on all sides to keep dry. Haha yeah it does look like a carnival tent 😂sorry I’m commenting while watching. Anyways.. what is your favorite cabin style tent? We’ve got two little kids so it needs to be big. I’d like one that sleeps like 10 or 12. Anywhoooo great vid, you are great at doing this. You need your own show for sure.

@LoneCrowAdventures
@LoneCrowAdventures 2 года назад
Not that I've seen, but I have seen people buy cabin style tents and cut out a section for an air conditioning. You need to have a little table on the outside for it to rest on if it's a window unit and beware that if it rains, well I don't know what would happen... either a flood inside the tent or electrocution or maybe both. I'd make sure the campground outlets were gcfi protected before using an air conditioner. It might be easier to use a portable air conditioner (you know the one that's a tower on wheels) and vent out a window. Let me know what you find out!!!!

You correctly pointed out that the rain fly design is inadequate for a slant wall tent. An ideal design would extend the fly out more to create a shelter over the doorways. That said, there’s a lot to be said for a tent that blocks the light really well, which is huge in the summer when the sun is out so much. But as 10 person tents go there are certainly better options. Maybe something with a vestibule or a porch

I was fairly disappointed in the performance of this tent, however I do like the 6p cabin style tent which was a total boss in rain and snow tests. Coleman tents are inconsistent at best. They are "good" not great tents, but budget friendly for most folks and the brand is widely recognized which I'm sure influences their popularity despite better options being available on the market.

The rainfly, the doors, and the fact the walls slope in so much with so little rainfly SCREAMED no real rain protection to me, so I went with the Ozark Trail version instead. I know OT isn't the best, but hose it down with LOTS of silicone waterproofer and seam sealer, so far no leaks after some rather abusive testing. And there is NOTHING wrong with saying you don't like the looks of a tent. That is in no small part a contributing factor for me. That green / gray look isn't my thing either. I think they were trying to give a "High Tech" vibe choosing those colors...

I found this review after we decided against this tent. The dark room was the major pro for us because we car camp at RV parks with another 2 families who have RVs (more lights than a tent campground or section) but the layout wasn't as good as the tent we chose. We also found photo reviews that the "blackout technology" is a coating that is easily damaged/scratched off. I immediately noticed that the walls and rain fly just don't go taught for you.

It pops up really nicely. 1 person could set it up, but it's nicer with 2. We chose to go with solid design and space over shading (eye masks exist and also block light). We recently camped through a small thunderstorm. The only internal water we found was a tablespoon amount under a window that had a stow bag hanging under it (and that could have been condensation). We always put a tarp down first. The one thing we did was upgrade the stakes to the longer steel kind with the green plastic hook under the "nail head". It comes with a nice big bag that zips open over one end and has extra space to accommodate that it's impossible to refold a tent to factory standards after use. It has cinch straps for packing ease.

I don't have any personal experience with core brand and I don't know anyone who has used one before so I can't vouch for that brand specifically, unfortunately. I do have the instant 6 person cabin tent by Coleman which I like very much. I find the bugger the tent the more issues you run into, so I don't generally get one bigger than a 6p as a rule, unless I know I'm taking out a ton of people like on a family trip. Good luck!

It's hard to believe this tent rates so badly against the Coleman 4 person instant tent. You'd think they would just upscale the whole thing and use the new material. Why fix it if it 'aint broken. Also, you're not 'abnormally short', you're exactly the size you are meant to be. Behave yourself 😊.

I bought this from a friend after they used it once and decided to upgrade to a camper. For me, it works great with the primary purpose of putting kiddos to bed early. While it does have that 15 minute setup time with rain fly, it’s way easier than previous tents with traditional poles. I suffer from migraines so light sensitivity is a factor as well ☺️

So price is what I have to say. Most things seems to be simple things that for a bit of work you could remedy. Like the fly straps, just replace them with 550 cord or untie and tighten the elastic also elastic corsage is pretty cheap ao if it does wear out for $4 you could replace them and have 45 feet left over. As for the divider you could install it before putting the tent up if your a shorter person. Now almost every single twnt that you get in nylon or like material will leak to some extent I learned that a long time ago and it doesn't matter if it's a $20 twnt or a $300 tent. When you buy a nylon tent treat it imidiatly before you ever even use it and then retreat it about once a year maybe more if you camp alot due to the treatment will deteriorate from the sun. Just like I spray my gear with bug treatment I spray my gear that should be water resistant with sealant. They also make a thicker sealant for seams if your stitch holes start to wear a bit get some of it
