Coleman Evanston Screened Tent

アメリカンサイズなのか、5人用ですがかなり大きく、設営には広いスペースが必要です。組み立ては比較的簡単でした。たまたま途中から雨の降る日に使用しましたが、入口側に広いネットスペースがあるので内側に物が置けて便利ですが、天井側にもネットを貼った部分があるので雨が降ると内側に風雨が吹き込みびしょびしょになってしまい片付けは大変でした。雨の心配がなければ大丈夫ですが・・・・

water leaked through the tent even though the rain was light, and we wished there is some sort of cover for the screenroom/porch. the eslaticstring core of the poles is broken on the first use.

All in all this is a remarkably good 3-season tent for two adults for a surprisingly low price -- hundreds of dollars less than comparable models by the higher end tent labels. We just returned from a weeklong outing up in Wisconsin's Northwoods and this tent performed admirably on its maiden trip. At long last we have finally replaced a Eureka Timberline 4-person tent we've had for many years. We're older now and wanted to graduate to a tent in which we could comfortably stand to dress, have ample space to stow gear and something easier to set up, and which would allow us to switch from inflatable pads on the ground to a pair of high-end REI cots. This tent checked all the boxes. Reviewers commented that this is tricky for one person to set up and I'm sure that's true, the two of us did it with ease. You'll want a 10'x14' base tarp to put underneath, which you can find here on Amazon for about $23, and you'll want to invest in the good heavy-duty 9" yellow plastic stakes that hold securely, also available here. I appreciate that the tension lines for the fly came already attached. I also recommend the green camping doormat sold here, it helps keep dirt out of your screened porch. And we bought a 2'x7' runner to place in the center between the two cots and this not only was very nice to step onto in the morning, but also cushioned against rocks and tree roots beneath the tent. This tent has a substantial waterproof floor which rises up on all sides to meet the material used for the rest of the tent; this is an improvement over older tents where all sides and bottom were made from the same light-weight material. As noted in most reviews, the screen porch is not covered by the fly and this will allow water to enter and collect. I assume that is why this product has been discontinued by Coleman and replaced with a new design featuring a fully covered entrance. Reviewers note that the tent itself holds up to rain extremely well and the exposed screen porch was not a deal-breaker for me; we typically watch the weather and pull up stakes if extremely violent weather is in the immediate forecast. I grew up in Southern California in a camping family and active in a Scout troop that camped monthly in the Sierras; and the two of us have been camping together for decades. Coleman has always meant a lot to me as a beloved legacy brand. Some of today's premier brands were just getting their start when I was a scout; Coleman was the standard, as it had been for my dad in his scouting days. We've always camped with Coleman gear and I'm especially glad to have found a Coleman tent that fits my needs. I need a little more comfort now than I did as a teenager, but I still want a green tent that looks like a tent, and this Coleman Evanston 6-person is perfect for us. Highly recommend.

The delivery was fast and packed safely. No mis-stitched seams. All parts are there. Although the flooring was not made whole, theres an interconnection that were glued to each end (2nd pic). It looks like a manufacturing defect. I worry that rain water may seep in in the long run. I have not tried camping with this tent yet and im hoping it will not cause any trouble to us. No more issues aside from it.

Es una EXELENTE casa de campaña, caben muchas personas de manera comoda. El porche de visualizacion es amplio y muy agradable. Es facil de armar y de desarmar, to me tarde aprocimadamente 14 min. en armarla y 15 en desarmarla. La caja incluye estacas pero hay que llevar un martillo. La casa es muy amplia, la verdad más de lo que esperaba, en el medio de la casa, cabe parada una persona de 1.70m. Las centanas están muy amplias pero el problema es que la ventana de atras, esta muy grande y no tiene una cortina, hay que ponerle el toldo completo, el cual tapa todas las ventanas, menos las de enfrente de la casa, que dan al toldo(las estan en la puerta y a un lado de ella) Yo, personalmente, tube un problema y me salio defectusosa, pero la devolví a Amazon y me regresaron todo mi dinero.
