Customer reviews
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.
Learn more how customers reviews work on AmazonCustomers say
Customers like the ease of setup, value, size and ease of taking down of the tent. For example, they mention it's a great value for the money, it'll fit three over-sized cots and that it comes down real easy. That said, some complain about the leakage and water resistance.
AI-generated from the text of customer reviews

"...OMG - SO MUCH EASIER!! I was able to get it up by myself in around 1 minute and take down - back in the bag within 2 minutes!..." Read more
"I opted for this tent because the overall consensus was how very easy it is to put up. Yes, it really is very, VERY easy to erect...." Read more
"...Setting up the tent is quite easily done. We had very good weather and it did not rain at all...." Read more
Customers like the quality of the tent. They mention it's well-made, holds up well, and is sturdy. Some say the design is solid and waterproof, and the tent does well in both extremes. The headroom is great, and it'll fit the whole family comfortably.
"...I took the 6-person tent camping on the beach. Over-all it held up really well. I got it up in under two minutes. Then the wind kicked up...." Read more
"...I will say this, the "bathtub" design of this tent was SOLID and waterproof!! That is the ONLY reason for that extra star...." Read more
"...For the most part, this tent feels like quality to me. A lot of times, companies will cheap out on the zippers, but these ones seem pretty good...." Read more
"...I also found that the bottom of the tent did not seem as durable as the video review of the prior Coleman 4-person tent review...." Read more
Customers like the size of the tent. They say it is roomy, has two rooms, and has enough room for a couple or four people. Some mention that it has plenty of headspace.
"...Both fit along the sides, and it leaves plenty of space in the middle for bags, a footstool for summer fans, and to stand up and put your pants on...." Read more
"...It was certainly helpful to have the both of us doing it. It is quite large, and is over 6' at the center. It also has two-rooms...." Read more
"...had a problem, even in torrential downpours if you’re looking for a good size, easy to put up tent for car camping this is the one you’ll never take..." Read more
"...It is roomy and has no sagging due to the well-fit pole frame. The windows all have sippers for screen ventilation. There are two ceiling vents...." Read more
Customers like how easy it is to take down the tent. They mention that it takes less than 5 minutes to take it down. Some say that it's not much more difficult to put away than it is for putting it up.
"...Putting the tent away was quick and easy. Even easier once we tore off the expansion patch on the bag to make it larger." Read more
"...Anyways this tent folds up pretty large but the payoff is that true poles are attached and it literally takes 30 seconds to set up by a 5’6” tall..." Read more
"...3. To be super easy and fast to put up and down..." Read more
"...Take-down is easy enough as well until you get to the point of having to fold the fabric back around the collapsed poles like an errant burrito..." Read more
Customers find the tent easy to set up and down. They say it saves time and is a godsend for speed.
"...Because of it's fast and easy setup design, it would be a shame not to try and salvage my purchase, but it will be tested first!!..." Read more
"...Don’t get me wrong- I really like this tent. It goes up in 30 seconds, down in 60. You can stand up in it. Plenty of windows that roll up easily...." Read more
"It went up easy and is made well, it's Coleman so you expect that. It's very short...." Read more
"...**The tent goes up quickly and easily. It is, however, hard to get it as taut as I would like, which may account for some of the water seepage...." Read more
Customers like the value of the tent. They mention it's great value for the money, and it'll cost less than building a screen porch. Some say it'd be quicker next time and is great value if you're camping in relatively mild weather.
"...They are inexpensive, around a buck each and they do a better job than the cheap stakes the tent comes with...." Read more
"...tent is a very simple solution to a larger problem, it is both cost effective, ingenuitive, and it just works for me...." Read more
"...For this reason alone I think the price is way too much. Will keep it simply for the convenience and extremely easy set up." Read more
"...It is worth every penny to be able to put it up and take it down especially in the dark...." Read more
Customers are mixed about the water resistance of the tent. Some mention that the inside of their tent stayed dry, while others say that it gets super wet, and water seeps directly through the walls.
"...I would say there were two very tiny spots of water infiltration from above...." Read more
"...The fabric seemed to be very resilient to water, and it look as though the water was bouncing right off (kind of like a car with rain-x on it)......" Read more
"...Tents aren't actually waterproof, they are just somewhat water resistant. Using a tarp will protect your tent from UV Rays and Rain...." Read more
"...So, the tent IS NOT WATERPROOF by any means, I don't see any proof of the other features Coleman advertises either...." Read more
Customers are dissatisfied with the leakage of the tent. They mention that it has a leaking problem when they got bad luck with rain during camping, the shelter over the picnic tables was leaking, and every seam on the side walls leaks. They also say that water seeping in on the seams on the bottom would eventually drip through.
"...The shelter over the picnic tables was leaking. One (out of five) families just packed it in and left at dusk when their tent started to flood...." Read more
"...once I stopped the lite shower and looked inside, I found water seeping in on the seams on the bottom. I was very disappointed...." Read more
"...to moderate rainfall into a 6.5 hour rain event, the roof started leaking at the seams and from inside the loop where you hang a light or something...." Read more
"...Also after 3 camping trips, rain water started leaking from the seals at the bottom of each window...." Read more

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I took the 6-person tent camping on the beach. Over-all it held up really well. I got it up in under two minutes. Then the wind kicked up. I would recommend that if the wind is over 10-15mph, don't go. I had to anchor all of the corners and use the tether lines with heavy duty tent stakes (I purchased separately) to keep it anchored to the ground. When trying to take it down, I recommend closing the door and leaving the windows half-way up just to release the inner air. I tried it first with the door and windows all of the way open and the tent kept blowing up like a balloon which kept causing the legs to reextend. It was nearly impossible to take down. I had to really struggle to try and get it to collapse. I never had this problem with my traditional tent where I could just remove the poles. With no wind, I would say it is perfect.
UPDATE 6 - Person Tent:
I replaced the 8-person tent I had to throw away with the 6-person version. OMG - SO MUCH EASIER!! I was able to get it up by myself in around 1 minute and take down - back in the bag within 2 minutes! I went through the whole process twice just to make sure! The tent fabric is thick and feels very durable. The floor is the thickest I have ever seen on a tent.... It's like a heavy duty tarp. So far I am really impressed! I changed my overall rating from 1 star for the 8-person to 5 stars for the 6-person! I will write another update after I take it to the beach in a couple of weeks and see how it holds up there.
ORIGINAL PURCHASE 8 - Person tent:
I have been camping for over 40 years. I selected this tent because it advertises as "instant-tent with 60-second easy assembly." So much better than the hassle of dealing with multiple poles... right?
The 8-person tent has 6 legs; one in each corner and one on each side where there is no door. It was like trying to wrestle an angry octopus - seriously!! It requires a bare minimum of 2 people (and four people would be better) to set it up. You have to raise all of the poles at the same time or it will just keep collapsing in different directions. It took us over half an hour of struggling to get it up. I was exhausted and sweaty at the end.
One of the poles bent the first time the tent was up (not sure how, it wasn't manhandled and no wind or anything) and it will no longer contract or expand. And the fabric was thin and saggy... as well as the floor. I don't think it would hold-up in the wind or rain at all.
Taking it down was just as difficult as setting it up (or more so) because the poles kept collapsing every which way. You can't take them all down at the same time unless you have 6 people. So we had to figure out how to manually fold and realign the legs from the big tangled pile on the ground in order to get the tent to fold back up for transport.
I bought this tent because it was supposed to be easy!! Maybe the 4 or 6-person tent that only has the 4 corner poles would be much easier to manage; but this 6-pole 8-person model is a nightmare! I threw it away. I could have tried to return it for the refund but with the bent pole that would no longer contract, I couldn't get it back in the box! UGH!!!!!!
We used it a couple of times in the backyard first. No real problems there (except a nervous preschooler who decided to "go back home"/inside before 9pm.) When we were planning a class camping trip with other families, I warned my husband, "the reviews say this tent is great, EXCEPT IN THE RAIN" so we planned to just pack up early and leave if the weather turned bad.
Well, living in New England... we got a pretty intense thunderstorm during our three night camping trip! The shelter over the picnic tables was leaking. One (out of five) families just packed it in and left at dusk when their tent started to flood. The weather reports the next day actually stated flash floods occurred in the area where we camped... but we slept pretty darn dry in the Coleman 6-Person Instant Tent! I would say there were two very tiny spots of water infiltration from above. We definitely had one child who rolled to the side and got a damp sleeping bag due to sleeping in contact with the side of the tent. HOWEVER, even without the rainfly and with no tarp covering us, all in all, we had a dry tent. This far exceeded my expectation for how well this inexpensive, easy-up tent would handle serious rainfall. (It POURED in the evening, then rained softly to moderately throughout most of the night.)
We did luck out, by arriving last in our group, in having the highest placed campsite at our New Hampshire state park. The coziest seeming sites were definitely downhill from ours when the weather turned bad. The site did seem pretty flat upon initial visual inspection, though. The soil was sandy, so the rain water was able to sink it fairly quickly, thank goodness.
Aside from weather resistance, our family of four found the interior space of this tent comfortable. We use the self-inflating (backpacker style) camping pads by Therm-A-Rest ( Thermarest Luxury Map Air Mattress, Blue in the 30-inch wide XL size for the adults and much smaller 3/4 length pads for the kids), so we aren't crowding the tent as much as household sized thick air mattresses would. It was snug but comfortable with our beds deployed and a few duffle bags with clothing. We had room to move between our beds, but we only use the tent to sleep and get dressed.
Having read all the reviews, I brought a few wooden clothes pins to use to keep the window flaps from flapping, and I had zero issue with any noise or inconvenience with the windows. I am very easily disturbed by things like fluttering flaps.
As others have written, it sure would be nice to have extra loops or pockets in the tent for storage, but, again, I knew what to expect and just kept a little tote next to my bed with my LED lamp, eyeglasses, etc. At this price point, I found the tent completely satisfactory as far as features were concerned.
I wish there were a footprint sized precisely for this tent. I worried about water infiltration all night during our heavy rains. I was able to fold a standard tarp to fit neatly underneath the Coleman 6-Person Instant Tent, but I would have paid a few extra dollars to have a tarp that fit perfectly like a proper footprint does.
I am pretty likely to buy the new rainfly accessory for this tent now that it is available. As I said, our experience was very positive in a pretty significant rainfall, but I did sleep poorly worrying that water was going to come in during the night. I have also strongly considered some kind of easy up shelter just tossed up over the entire tent to stop the worst of a deluge getting to us...
In a nutshell, I am very satisfied with the Coleman 6-Person Instant Tent. It met my highest priority, which was a set-up so easy that tent-anxiety wouldn't keep us from heading out for a camping trip. The five-star review is because FOR THE PRICE, this tent wildly exceeded my expectations. I would be using much more stringent requirements (pockets, conveniences) if the price point were more than just barely into the three digit range, like the Paha Que, Mountain Hardware, etc. tents that I covet but could not justify for our infrequent current usage. This is a great place to start if you are a family considering camping but not ready for big cash commitments. In that scenario, IMHO, spend less on your first tent and a little more to ensure you have good sleeping pads (cushioning) to avoid physical pain/misery, warm enough sleeping bags, and good basic cooking equipment so everyone can enjoy themselves.
