Amazon.com Product Description

Stay warm and comfortable on a chilly fall evening with the Coleman Taos mummy sleeping bag. The Taos, which offers a temperature rating down to 25 degrees F, is filled with 38 ounces of Coletherm insulation. This allows for a greater loft--a measure of the amount of space the insulation occupies and the amount of air the insulation can trap. The bag also offers several other features to fight the chill, including a double-batt, offset quilt construction that eliminates potential cold spots, a semi-sculpted hood that surrounds the head with warmth, and a full-length, insulated draft tube that locks out drafts. And to help the bag last through the years, Coleman added a durable polyester and diamond ripstop cover that resists tears.

Coleman's ComfortSmart technology includes such features as a ThermoLock zipper, FiberLocked insulation, and a ZipPlow tool.

Coleman's ComfortSmart Technology
The best way to relax after a big day of camping adventures is to wrap up in a warm sleeping bag and drift off to peaceful sleep. Coleman is so committed to making sure you have reliable and cozy bedding that it backs its Taos sleeping bag with its ComfortSmart guarantee--a promise that the bag will deliver all-night comfort. Coleman can make this promise thanks to its third-party, scientifically tested temperature ratings; engineering features that promote thermal efficiency and durability; and the creation of different bag sizes to ensure a comfortable fit. Coleman developed a number of warmth-enhancing features for its ComfortSmart system. The FiberLock insulation tailoring, for example, is designed to prevent insulation from shifting in the bag and developing thin or cold spots. By keeping the insulation in place, Coleman also lengthens the life of the bag. The ThermoLock feature contributes by reducing heat loss (and cold seepage) through zipper coils. This sets up an additional insulating barrier to stand guard along the length of the zipper, ensuring that the snug feeling campers get when zipping up the bag stays with them through the night. Coleman also added such features as a ZipPlow zipper tool, which prevents zipper snags by channeling fabric away from the zipper coils, and Zipper Glide tailoring, which makes it silky smooth to zip the bag at the corners.
Sizing
The Taos is a tall sleeping bag, with dimensions of 82 by 32 inches. As a result, the bag fits most people up to 6 feet 2 inches tall. And despite the mummy bag construction, Coleman added a box-foot silhouette to give your feet extra wiggle room.
Also equipped with a two-way zipper for maximum ventilation, the Taos comes with a stuff sack and carries a five-year warranty.
About Coleman
More than 100 years ago, a young man with an entrepreneurial spirit and a better idea began manufacturing lanterns in Wichita, Kansas. His name was W.C. Coleman, and the company he founded would change life in America. A man plagued with such poor vision he sometimes had to ask classmates to read aloud to him, Coleman saw a brilliant light in 1900 in a drugstore window that stopped him in his tracks. He inquired about the light inside and discovered he was able to read even the small print on a medicine bottle by the illumination. The lamps had mantles, not wicks, and were fueled by gasoline under pressure instead of coal oil. Soon afterward, Coleman started a lighting service that offered a "no light, no pay" clause--a big step forward for merchants who were burned by inferior products that rarely worked--and drew substantial interest from businesses that wanted to keep their lights on after dark.
In the ensuing years, Coleman expanded its product line well beyond lanterns. The company's current catalog is thick with products that make spending time outdoors a pleasure. There are coolers that keep food and drinks cold for days on end, comfortable airbeds that won't deflate during the night, a complete line of LED lights that last for years, powerful portable grills that cook with an authentic open-grill flame, and much, much more. Coleman has truly fashioned much of our outdoor camping experience, and expects to do so for generations to come.

Sleep Well: Finding the Right Sleeping Bag
Sleeping bag technology has come a long way from the days of cowboy bedrolls. These days, there are a number of high-tech materials and designs available to keep you warm during the coldest outings. Here's a short list of things to keep in mind when you're shopping for a bag:
Buy for Cold
It's a safe bet that on at least one of your adventures, the nighttime temperature will drop unexpectedly. That's why it's smart to buy a bag that's rated for the lowest possible temperature you expect to face on your camping and backpacking trips. For summer trips, a bag rated at +35 degrees F or higher will likely do the trick. If you like to camp in higher elevations in the summer, or if spring and fall outings are in your future, consider bags rated from +10 to +35 degrees F. Winter adventurers should look for bags in the -10 to +10 degrees F range, while those on serious winter alpine climbs and expeditions will want a bag rated lower than -10 degrees F.
Keep in mind that sleeping bag manufacturers' temperature ratings only estimate the minimum temperature at which the bag will provide warmth. Take these numbers with a grain of salt, as different folks generate different amounts of heat when they sleep. If you're the type who likes to pile on the covers even on warmer nights, go for a bag that's rated 10 degrees colder. The opposite is true for "warm" sleepers--a 35-degree bag will probably work for you on a 25-degree night.
Goose or No Goose?
The most important component of any sleeping bag is its insulating material. Modern sleeping bags offer two choices: goose down or synthetic. While both materials have advantages and disadvantages, down bags are considered superior because of their phenomenal warmth-to-weight and warmth-to-bulk ratios. While providing great insulation, down is extremely compressible and light. There's a reason why geese can fly and stay warm through the winter. Down also boasts great long-term durability and will typically retain its insulating properties after years of use.
All of that said, there are many high-quality synthetic bags on the market, and synthetic materials are getting better all the time. While a synthetic bag will weigh somewhat more than a down bag at an equivalent temperature rating, synthetic bags perform better when wet. (Yes, the Achilles heel of down is that it loses all insulating properties when wet.) If your trips take you to wet climates, you may want to consider a synthetic bag for this reason alone. Keep in mind, too, that many people are allergic to down, while synthetic bags are non-allergenic. Finally, down is considerably more expensive than synthetic, which might tip the balance for adventurers on a budget.
Bags for All Shapes
Sleeping bags come in two basic shapes that reflect their intended use. Mummy-shaped bags offer the best warmth because they conform to the body's contours. This minimizes the amount of body heat the body must put out to maintain a constant temperature. Many mummy bags are offered in women-specific shapes and sizes, as well. Rectangular bags, while they do offer more room to toss and turn, are less thermally efficient because they contain more open air space. Also, they are typically heavier than mummy bags, and are generally not offered with down insulation, making them best suited for car camping or short backpacking trips.
Pad Yourself
No matter what kind of bag you choose, a sleeping pad is a required accessory. Not only do they provide much-needed comfort when sleeping on the ground, pads also offer crucial warmth for your backside, as the weight of your body compresses--and renders virtually useless--the sleeping bag insulation that lies beneath you.

"Cozy and just right" 2010-06-13
By Monica L. Smith
Bought this for my petite daughter, whom it fits just fine. Warm and soft. Rolls up and compacts into a convenient little bag.

  
"25 degree? No way." 2010-06-10
By J. Scianna
This bag won't even keep you warm in 40 degree weather. For the price, it's just fine for summer camping. But if you plan on backpacking, it's too big, heavy, and the warmth to size ratio is awful. If you're serious about backcountry camping/backpacking, save your money and get something that'll keep you warm, pack light, and last.

  
"Poor zipper quality" 2010-04-18
By Benjamin P. Kiefer (Vernal, UT)
Zipper failed after about 20 uses. Left me without a closable bag in 15 degree weather.

  
"Nice bag but not for 25 deg." 2010-03-29
By Helmo Alkou (Fort Worth, Texas)
I bought two of these, mainly for 40-50 deg weather, assuming the 25 deg. rating wasn't correct. I was wearing a cold weather base layer, used a fleece liner, and still 25-30 degrees was cold! Three stars because it is a well made bag. But Extreme-Weather, not!

  
"Good Bag" 2010-03-15
By Charles Newell
I bought this bag to go backpacking in the Smokies in October. We got to over 5,000 feet and the temperature probably got down to the upper 20's. It kept me warm and I had plent of room, I'm 5-8 160. I did have a hard time getting the hood to mummify my head though. Still, a great bag for the price!

About Eureka
Though the exact year is unknown, Eureka’s long history begins prior to 1895 in Binghamton, New York, where the company still resides today. Then known as the Eureka Tent & Awning Company, its first wares were canvas products--most notably, Conestoga wagon covers and horse blankets for nineteenth century American frontiersmen--as well as American flags, store awnings, and camping tents.
The company increased production of its custom canvas products locally throughout the 1930s and during the 1940 and even fabricated and erected the IBM "tent cities" just outside Binghamton. The seven acres of tents housed thousands of IBM salesmen during the company’s annual stockholders meeting, which had since outgrown its previous locale. In the 1940s, with the advent of World War II and the increased demand for hospital ward tents, Eureka expanded operations and began shipping tents worldwide. Ultimately, upon the post-war return of the GIs and the resultant housing shortage, Eureka turned its attention to the home front during the 1950s by supplying awnings for the multitude of mobile homes that were purchased.
In 1960, Eureka’s new and innovative Draw-Tite tent, with its practical, free standing external frame, was used in a Himalayan Expedition to Nepal by world renowned Sir Edmund Hillary, the first person documented to summit Mt. Everest only six years earlier. In 1963, Eureka made history during its own Mt. Everest ascent, with more than 60 of its tents sheltering participants from fierce 60+ mph winds and temperatures reaching below -20°F during the first all American Mt. Everest Expedition.
For backpackers and families, Eureka introduced its legendary Timberline tent in the 1970s. Truly the first StormShield design, this completely self-supporting and lightweight backpacking tent became one of the most popular tents the entire industry with sales reaching over 1 million by its ten year anniversary.
Eureka tents have also traveled as part of several historic expeditions, including the American Women’s Himalayan Expedition to Annapurna I in 1978 and the first Mt. Everest ascents by a Canadian and American woman in 1986 and 1988. In recent history, tents specially designed and donated by Eureka sheltered Eric Simonson and his team on two historic research expeditions to Mount Everest, this time in a quest for truth regarding the 1924 attempted summit of early English explorers George Mallory and Andrew Irvine. During the 1999 expedition, the team made history finding the remains of George Mallory, but the complete mystery remained unsolved. Returning in 2001 to search for more clues, the team found amazing historical artifacts which are now on display at the Smithsonian.

Selecting a Tent
Fortunately, there are all kinds of tents for weekend car campers, Everest expeditions, and everything in-between. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
Expect the Worst
In general, it's wise to choose a tent that's designed to withstand the worst possible conditions you think you'll face. For instance, if you're a summer car camper in a region where weather is predictable, an inexpensive family or all purpose tent will likely do the trick--especially if a vehicle is nearby and you can make a mad dash for safety when bad weather swoops in! If you're a backpacker, alpine climber or bike explorer, or if you like to car camp in all seasons, you'll want to take something designed to handle more adversity.
Three- and Four-Season Tents
For summer, early fall and late spring outings, choose a three-season tent. At minimum, a quality three season tent will have lightweight aluminum poles, a reinforced floor, durable stitching, and a quality rain-fly. Some three-season tents offer more open-air netting and are more specifically designed for summer backpacking and other activities. Many premium tents will feature pre-sealed, taped seams and a silicone-impregnated rain-fly for enhanced waterproofness.
For winter camping or alpine travel, go with a four season model. Because they typically feature more durable fabric coatings, as well as more poles, four-season tents are designed to handle heavy snowfall and high winds without collapsing. Of course, four-season tents exact a weight penalty of about 10 to 20 percent in trade for their strength and durability. They also tend to be more expensive.
Domes and Tunnels
Tents are broadly categorized into two types, freestanding, which can stand up on their own, and those that must be staked down in order to stand upright. Freestanding tents often incorporate a dome-shaped design, and most four-season tents are constructed this way because a dome leaves no flat spots on the outer surface where snow can collect. Domes are also inherently stronger than any other design. Meanwhile, many three-season models employ a modified dome configuration called a tunnel. These are still freestanding, but they require fewer poles than a dome, use less fabric, and typically have a rectangular floor-plan that offers less storage space than a dome configuration. Many one and two-person tents are not freestanding, but they make up for it by being more lightweight. Because they use fewer poles, they can also be quicker to set up than a dome.
Size Matters
Ask yourself how many people you'd like to fit in your fabric hotel now and in the future. For soloists and minimalists, check out one-person tents. If you're a mega-minimalist, or if you have your eye on doing some big wall climbs, a waterproof-breathable bivy sack is the ticket. Some bivy sacks feature poles and stake points to give you a little more breathing room. Also, if you don't need bug protection and you want to save weight, check out open-air shelters.
Families who plan on car camping in good weather can choose from a wide range of jumbo-sized tents that will accommodate all your little ones with room to spare. A wide range of capacities is also available for three- and four-season backpacking and expedition tents. Remember, though, the bigger the tent you buy, the heavier it will be, although it's easy to break up the tent components among several people in your group. It's also helpful to compare the volume and floor-space measurements of models you're considering.

"Light Backpack tent is great" 2010-08-31
By Just Bruce (Bay Area, USA)
I was skeptical. i was looking for a really light solo backpacking tent that would be easy to set up and light to carry. I ordered this one from Amazon, and so far have taken it on 3 overnight trips. It is a perfect size with plenty of room for one person and stuff. It's light-- under 3 lbs. And it is pretty easy to set up. And the fly keeps the entire inside dry. I'd recommend it when you can't afford one of the megabucks solo tents and don't want a bivy or minimal shelter, but something that actually keeps the bugs and water off.

  
"Great Tent" 2010-08-20
By Bob
This was the perfect tent for a backpacking trip to the Sierra's . The only issue, and it's a minor one, was the zipper on the rain fly sometimes sticks, but only when i was in a rush to get away from the bug's! Great Tent , Great Buy!

  
"Great backpacking tent" 2010-07-26
By Daveg
Wanted a lighter one-man tent for backpacking, this one fit the bill perfectly at a reasonable price. Plenty of room, great headroom for a one-man tent. Only complaint is that there is no way to use the vestibule opposite the door. Cheap stakes but that is to be expected.

  
"head room!" 2010-07-06
By jocko
i backpack the san juan mountain area in colorado and have always took my eureka bivy tent. that tent worked well but i longed for more head room and easier entrance and exit. the spitfire seems to foot the bill. just a few ounces heavier than the bivy, but much more room. the setup is easy, and getting rid of the heavy tent stakes make this tent easy to pack. i haven't hit the trail yet with it yet, but if it performs like the other eureka tents i have owned, i'm sure it will be the right choice for me.

  
"A TENT FOR ONE" 2010-06-28
By M. Cassity (New York)
NOT TOO BIG. NOT TOO SMALL. A TENT FOR ONE PERSON. DOES EXACTLY WHAT YOU WOULD EXPECT FROM A TENT. PRICE IS RIGHT ON TARGET.

"Great chair, great price" 2010-08-19
By Marian Wiggins (Alexandria, VA United States)
I am 350 lbs so I have to be careful of what chairs I sit in, especially outdoor chairs and chairs with arms, but this chair was fantastic. It supported my weight, on the beach, it was comfortable for me to sit in (I am a woman, my hips are proportionately large to my weight - women, you know what I mean about hips) and was just a joy to have and not expensive for what I feel I received. I just received this product and used it for a week at the beach. I am not sure of its durability yet, but I have high hopes. It also comes with a bag that has a strap and is easy to carry. Couldn't be more pleased with this product.

"Great for Quick Counter Space, May not last" 2010-07-11
By NovaDriver (NOVA)
This table works great for us on our camping trips. When packed it is a little smaller than a folding camp chair. The aluminum is very easy to clean up and you really don't have to worry about it getting wet. I do have my worries about its durability. Without the cover, the top of the table is only held on to the table frame by four plastic clips on each corner. The middle of the table can slide around and come off the frame. Because the table top is metal and the connectors are plastic, I think it is only a matter of time before the clips wear out. Be careful moving this table once you have it up. If you don't move it by grabbing the frame, you could pull the table top off and break the four clips.

This packs up nice and is very sturdy for placing things on. We put two camp stoves, 2.5 gallon drinking water, and 5 gallon water can. Never was an issue of being unsteady.

If the table top was secured better to the frame, I would give this 5 stars

  
"Great Table" 2010-05-25
By Cookie (Brunswick, GA)
The table worked exactly as advertised --simple to assemble, compact and very functional-- perfect for camping. It creates ample space for food preparation and then "triples" as a wonderful place to eat that food as well as a place to entertain ourselves -- games, project area or just a big music stand(we put our I-Pod and speakers on it). The cover is a real plus when it comes to cleanup and makes the table top slats feel very solid -- not to mention also being an ingenious carry bag. Highly recommended!!

"Sturdy, lightweight and well designed" 2009-09-29
By Walt Patterson (Los Angeles)
I bought this table recently for a week long camping trip out to an island off Southern Calif where the only access is by boat. So the table had to be fairly light and compact as space for gear on our small boat was at a premium. This camping table fit the bill just fine. It rolls up into as compact a package as you could ask for and it is easy to transport with the provided strap.

Setup, after going through it the first time slowly as you read the instructions provided on the cover (so you always have them handy), takes only a minute. Once up, the table top is rigid and will securely support your campstove and cooking gear. It's a strong table for what it is, but I wouldn't sit on it either. It comes with a water & stain resistant cover that even includes checker & backgammon board patterns on one side for gaming the old fashioned way.

Lastly, breakdown is about as easy as setup. This table completely met my expectations and I would recommend it to anyone for similar usage.

"Eureka Silver City 30 degree" 2010-05-03
By GB Maynard (Reisterstown, MD)
Not even close to comfortable at 30 degrees, or 40 degrees! Difficult to zip up all the way once inside. Zipper will not stay zipped. Might make a good summer bag, but this one isn't for cold weather.

"Interesting, still need to try them on the tent" 2010-08-22
By Deb (CA)
These are a little odd. I wasn't sure how they were going to work. After a little toying around with them, I can see how they will be helpful in a rainstorm to really tighten up my rain fly on the tent. They are lightweight and easy to tuck into my tent bag.

  
"All Hung Up!" 2010-07-26
By Bigdog
Let me start out by saying that I was a guide with the Sierra Club for 5yrs., an outdoor survival instructor for 12yrs., and worked in an environmental ed. center for 6yrs. I have a lot of experience & Sierra Designs Grip Clips are the best thing to come along since toilet paper! I tested it on a 30ft. structure with 60ml/hr. gusts & everything held with no damage to the material. With this product the applications are endless. With a pocket full of clips, nylon cord, & a guide tarp you could make a variety of structures under 4lbs. I'm going to by more before they're discontinued!

"Here's the instructions on how to use." 2009-08-09
By Anita Griggs (Ventura, CA)
You have to figure out how to use this product yourself. There are no instructions and the photo is misleading. The photo is what it would look like from the inside of the tent. And, there is no loop as the picture shows. There are two pieces: a) a ring and b) a base for the ring that has a strap attached for the rope guides. Here's how to put them on your tent:

1) Place the ring piece inside the tent at the spot you want it.
2) place the oval-with-strap piece on the OUTSIDE of the tent and push the oval piece through the tent fabric into ring piece on the inside. The ring piece locks it in place.

It's hard to understand with words, you just have to fiddle with it until you get it. It is very clever. Enjoy.

  
"Neat Gizmo!" 2009-06-25
By N. Rengler (Kitsap Peninsula, WA)
Yup, these clips are worth the money. When I bought my new tent, I didn't even notice it didn't have any stake loops at the bottom, mid-points of each wall. As such, the slightest breeze would push the wall(s) in about 12"... annoying. These clips (once you figure out how they attach,ha) solve the problem. A good idea at a reasonable price.

The clips work. I cannot see any ill effect on the fabric of my Kelty tarp.

"IT'S BIG!...and yet, not..." 2010-08-18
By sh00bie (Virginia, USA)
I bought this tent to use at a week-long star-party, so "practical" and "carry-in" weren't objectives. What WERE objectives were that it had to be big enough for all my gear, had to be relatively reliable and well equipped, and it had to be big enough that I could move around in it with my 6'2" figure without developing a hunch.

Naturally when buying camping gear I ran to Coleman. It's clear that the brand has moved far away from the mostly American-made products to overseas (China) manufacturing, so that was a little disappointing. However it probably worked in my favor since I could get more product for less $$.

Okay, so about the tent...

First off, this is NOT a light tent. If you're actually going to hike this someplace, think again. The specs say it weighs 36 pounds, and you'd better believe it. It also comes in the typical Coleman tent bag (squarish green zipper bag) and the bag is about 4-feet long. Definitely something to consider if you're planning on taking this tent somewhere on foot.

The tent comes in a cardboard box, which is put inside the Coleman green bag, and then that is put inside a box for shipping. My tent arrived without a scratch on anything...except my wallet for the shipping charges. :)

Assembly, I have to say, for a tent this size, is cake. Now like I said above, I'm 6-foot-2, and I was able to put this tent together solo without any trouble at all. In fact, with the exception of the rain fly, a midget with a step-ladder could solo-assemble this tent. (Take a moment and relish that image for a second...)

When you open the actual tent bag, the tent is folded and rolled up around all the other parts and tied with two strips of nylon fabric. I'd recommend ditching these and getting some real straps or rope. The tent poles, stakes, and supplemental poles (for door and awnings) came in good, separate bags with tie wraps. The rain fly, removable room divider, and "door mat" were folded and rolled up as well.

The tent poles seem very durable, well painted and marked, and where the elastic-cord is exposed in the joints, it's actually a small link of chain, so no worries about eventually cutting through the cord with use. There's four U-shaped pole structures for the tent. The sides of the U's are straight and go almost the full height, and the top sections are curved. The curved sections feed into well-marked and reinforced loop-sleeves along the top, then you connect the side poles. Once you have all the pole sections in place, you just raise each one, one at a time, and stick the bottom ends into the friction-cleat at the bottom edge of the tent. As the tent raises, you have to watch that the seams of the tent line up with the poles, and you have to shift things around a little until all the poles fit in place. The side poles actually have push-pin adjustments so you can alter the height an inch or two. The directions say to raise the tent with all the poles in the lowest setting, then raise each to the highest setting to fill out the shape. I missed that step and had all the poles in the full-height position, and didn't run into any problems. The tent DOES fit the frame with only a few inches wiggle-room, so it can seem a little tight until you get it all adjusted.

From roll-out to the point where all four pole sets were raised took me about 10-minutes...and that's with checking everything over twice.

Once you have the poles up you can re-adjust the shape of the tent to get everything spread out good. There's clips that connect the sides of the tent to the poles, and you can go ahead and fill in all the stake points. There's a stake point at every pole point, as well as at the door, screened outside and inside, and a couple other places. Trust me, if you think there should be a stake somewhere, there's already a reinforced loop waiting.

Once you get the tent part up, the rain-fly goes on. I will say that the rain-fly fits TIGHT to the tent, so a little patience is needed. Make sure the "Coleman" logo is on the screened-side of the tent and not the back. The fly is sewn in a way that it fits the shape of the tent, and there's just enough difference that it won't fit otherwise. Once you throw the fly over the tent, each connecting point has an elastic cord connected to a good metal hook which fits into a small hole in each tent pole. I recommend starting at the middle (the center two pole sections) and doing the ends last. There's Velcro straps that further connect the fly to the poles...attach those as you go to keep the fly from moving around as you stretch it. The fly also has attached tie-lines with toggles that you can spread out and stake down. They looked pretty sturdy.

The whole top of this tent is screened (except where poles go over and its reinforced) so the fly is needed unless you're chancing a dry night.

Once you get the fly on, you put in the rods for the door and the awnings. These rods are very thin and each rod is jointed with the typical elastic so you don't lose a piece. One rod goes into the vertical section of the door (what would be the hinge-line) and the other bows from the top to the bottom to frame the door. Coleman did a great job with this part. The poles are held in a sleeve along the door, with a zippered section so you can get the poles in and bend them how they're needed, and the ends of the poles have plastic covers and fit into sturdy rubber sockets on the door. Despite what it looks like at first, it's actually pretty durable once you get it assembled. The door has a protective flap covering the zipper, and a full-length zipper so you can shut the door fully at night. There's also several small Velcro patches, so when you close the door it doesn't hang open.

The awnings (one over the door and one opposite the door on the other side of the tent) are made using the last two flexible poles. Making a bow-shape with the pole, you slip the pole into a sleeve on the rain-fly and then stick the ends of the poles into a grommet point on a strap that is also connected to the main tent poles. It's a bit of a trick to get them in...I had to un-clip the strap on one side from the tent pole, put the awning pole into the grommet with the slack, and then re-clip everything back to the tent pole. The awnings to not stick out very far. I'd say they stick out only an inch or so beyond the profile of the tent. Since the tent does have a slight slope inwards, the awnings really just keep the dew or rain from pouring down on the door and back window.

Okay, enough on assembly. How's the tent? Awesome!

There's lots of windows in this tent, all screened with zippered privacy flaps that have built-in ties to manage them. The bottom of the tent is tarp-like and supposedly waterproof. Although I believe the waterproof part, I'd still HIGHLY recommend putting a separate tarp under this tent as a moisture barrier and to add an extra layer of durable material. I'd also recommend (if you care to bring it) a blanket or cloth-tarp to put inside to protect the tent bottom from your own traffic and gear. The inside room is very roomy and I could easily stand up without bending at all, and walk around the whole inside without problem. There's a built-in mesh pocket, about the size of a sheet of paper, but otherwise not much else. There's a small, semi-circular opening on the back wall near the floor that Coleman calls a "Cool-Air port". I'm not sure the point, actually. It's got a zippered screen flap as well as a zippered privacy flap, so you can open it fully and reach outside. Maybe it does help with air-flow...but I think it's more so you can reach your cooler without leaving the tent! :)

The screened in "porch" area has no bottom. The inside part, facing the actual inside of the tent, is divided by a zippered mesh wall, and a zippered privacy flap. The privacy flap doesn't zip at the bottom, but the mesh part does. The opening for the screened area to the outside is a single vertical zipper. There's stake loops at the bottom of BOTH sides, so you can stake down one side and use the other half of the opening as an actual door flap. There's not much room in the screened area. About enough for a pair of chairs. I could stand up without problem, but not move around much, since there's a bit of a slope. Still, to escape bugs, it's a nice touch. I will say that the rain-fly does NOT cover all of the screened porch area...really just the top and part of the sides. If you store gear out there, know it's exposed to the elements...just not bugs.

Final thoughts:

Taking the tent down and putting it away was as easy as setting it up. Surprisingly everything fit back into the bag...and I didn't take much time neatly rolling it or pushing all the air out, so if you do take your time it will fit with room to spare!

BUY ADDITIONAL STAKES! The tent comes with about 8 cheap plastic stakes that I wouldn't rely on, and about 14 wire-metal-stakes which are fine but can be annoying to put in and take out. Do yourself a favor and spend a couple bucks on more stakes. You can never have too many stakes!

Other than that I can't think of a thing wrong with this tent. It looks gigantic in the specifications and even when setup, but it's actually not that big...so don't worry about showing up with some camper-sized monstrosity! I'd recommend getting a tent-repair kit and some seam-sealer, but that's just prudent with ANY tent.

It's designed to house 6 people, but realistically you could get four people and a dog or two in this without much complaint.

If you don't want the screened section (or just don't think you'll use it) get the "WeatherMaster 8 Screened Tent" which is exactly the same except the tent fills out the area that is screened-in, in the 6 tent.

  
"Wonderful tent for a family or couple, easy to set up" 2010-07-25

I've had many tents and this tent is nice,easy to setup and lost of room.
Bought it for the door and screenroom, great place to put all your x-tra gear.
Went camping up in WI. on 4th. July weekend and it POORED all night and all day,
had a little leak at the seam where the gear pockets are sewn, but nothing a
little seam sealer can't fix, other than that a great product from coleman.

"Camping in a Tent Again" 2010-07-20
By lunatique
My husband and I are over 68 and have a tent trailer out of state. I I decided this summer, after having hip replacement and after purchasing an airbed that is 24 inches high (which I can get out of easily), that I HAD to go tent camping again. We love this tent. It sets up easily (and it was hot out), we put our airbed on one end with coolers on either side for essentials. It rained and NOTHING got wet. The screen porch was great for the rain as we could sit in it and play cards. Taking it down was equally easy. You could put two quenn size beds in it but that would be all. For a family with kids that would work fine. I also love the swinging door!

"Worthwhile purchase" 2010-08-03
By CJ
I bought this towel (in size large) to take with me on a trip to West Africa. Although I thought it was a bit pricey at the time of purchase, it was totally worth the money. It is nice and compact, and the material is good quality, very soft. The large size is big enough to wrap around me, similar to the size of a normal bath towel. Plus, even in the humid weather, it dries quickly. The people with whom I stayed wanted to buy the towel from me because they liked it so much.

"Wonderful Towel" 2010-07-04
By Grant Fritchey (MA)
If you want a full-sized towel that is very absorbant, dries quickly, but is lightweight and packs down well, then this is it. I've used this towel on multiple camp-outs now and it's been great. It works just as described. I really love how well it packs down so it doesn't take up much room in a backpack or day pack, which means I will carry it with me as opposed to many other types of towels that are just too bulky. The little bag it comes with isn't needed, but I've been using when I'm not worried about weight. The strap with a snap on one corner is pretty long which makes it easy to wrap around something to hang the towel up to dry. The one thing I don't like about the towel is that it doesn't slide well across the skin. To a degree you have to pat dry with it. If it didn't have all the other advantages it has, this might be more irritating, but it's just so handy & small... I've been really happy with this and will be purchasing a couple of more for other members of the family.

  
"Great towel!" 2010-06-07
By Izzy (Enola PA)
I bought this towel for a mission trip to Haiti. It was advertised as - compact, absorbent and quick drying. It was all of the above. It was exactly what I needed for 10 days of camping out of a backpack. I got the XL because I was skeptical about the smaller ones - and it was only a couple dollars more. It was actually TOO LARGE. It was larger than a bath sheet at home. Most folks could probably use a MED or LARGE. It was twice as nice as the one I bought at Dick's. Highly recommended.

"Loves it" 2010-06-06
By T. Steichen (San Diego, CA)
I bought this for my husband to take on deployment. He tried out at home and loved it. Two passes with the towel over his hair and it was like he never even took a shower. The usual slightly damp or clammy feeling left with other towels was no where to be seen. It dries quick and packs very small which are important when living in small spaces.

"Great for small camper" 2010-08-16
By Susan Goodman (Atlanta, GA USA)
I have an Aliner pop up camper with little storage space. These pans appear to be perfect. They fit in the small cupboard; they cook well over both propane and electric stoves. I tried them out in the house first. They are great for clean up with the non-stick lining. Good quality.

"More than we expected" 2010-07-22
By Simone G. Caban
My husband and I were preparing for a 3 night backpacking trip, interior camping via canoe. It was our first time so we researched the different items that would be necessary as well as light weight. We were pleasantly surprised wiht this mess kit that we had purchased. We used it not only on our protable stove but also right on the camp fire. It held up perfectly and it truly is non stick and durable. I would definitely recommend this for any backpacking trip.

  
"Awesome cookset!" 2010-04-22
By Terry L. Biegert (Port Orange, FL USA)
I bought this set for my 11-year old daughter to use when cooking with our Girl Scout troop. The set worked very well. The non-stick finish was great; she didn't have a problem with any of her food sticking like some of the girls who didn't have non-stick cookware had. The skillet is a perfect size for cooking two or three eggs at a time. The pots are a perfect size for making ramen noodles, or anything else that would feed one or two people. The pots are very sturdy, and the handles are comfortable in a child's or an adult's hands. The handles didn't heat up while the pots or skillets were on the stoves, which was nice. The set is a little big if you're planning on using it while backpacking; however, you might consider leaving one of the pots out and utilizing only one pot and one skillet in order to save room in your backpack. The set is well-made with very easy clean-up. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this set!

  
"Use it at home!" 2009-11-13
By Vivian Mills (from Florida)
I bought this set because of it's compact size, and the promise that the pots would be easy to clean. Both promises were kept.

When we got back from the trip, I hated to "put them away, till next time," so I rescued them from storage, and put them to work in my not so tiny RV full-time home. They work well, and the flat bottoms and dark color seem to make all the cooking heat up faster, and cook with less heat used than with my regular pots.

The only problem the handles flip back and forth quite a

bit as I pick them up, and it would be great to have some sort of "lock" on them,so the handles would stay together while they are on the stove.

  
"Fantastic Cook Set" 2009-09-18
By K. Lantzy (Northwest)
I Love this set and have used it backpacking 3 times now. The nonstick surface works well. cooked eggs in the pan several times with easy clean up using a paper towel. I've found that the small pot is great for 1-2 people, and the large is good for 3 hungry college students. Have used it to cook for 4 and that worked well, but it was a very full pot. It is pretty lightweight but is not the lightest available.

Heating is quite even (much better than a plain aluminum cook set that I once used). Durability is awesome. It will hold up under normal use and it won't get deformed in a stuffed backpack. Buy it! You should be impressed unless you are the ultra-light backpacker type (if so, then you are looking for titanium cookware for $$$).
