## Description

Product Description          Co-designed by veteran mountain guide Mike Haugen and tested on Mount Everest, the Coleman Exponent Helios X3 is a four-season tent worthy of the most grueling conditions. Developed to withstand high-altitude environments, the Helios X3 is a three-person tent that is slightly oversized and suitable for expeditions or base camps at higher elevations. A modified dome, it has a footprint of 92" x 82", two large D-shaped doors and two vestibules that are 8 square feet each. Center height is 48". The Helios tent features four Yunan Atlas Scandium poles; used in high-performance sporting goods as well as military and space applications, the scandium alloy is well-suited to tent poles that must stand up to demanding conditions. A shock-corded floating connector, tapered on each end, joins identical poles, eliminating the need for a fixed insert in either pole. This innovative design allows the poles to flex in an even arc with better distribution of stress, making them stronger and less prone to failure. Structural features include a combination of pole sleeves and quick-clips for quicker setup without compromising strength. Extensive pole coverage with multiple guy-out points provides “bomb shelter" strength to handle snow loads and high-altitude winds. The 70-denier nylon fly sports silicone and polyurethane coatings to increase resistance to wind and weather. Inside pockets provide a handy place to store gear. Pack weight: 12 pounds 4 ounces.             .com          The prototype of this 4-season tent was designed by professional mountaineers and tested on some of the highest way stations of Mt. Everest. The Helios X2 tent is, as a result, engineered specifically to withstand the combative conditions that exist at high altitudes. The Helios X2 tent features a more robust pole structure built to hold heavier snow loads, a waterproof silicone coating that won't crack in freezing temperatures, and all of the interior mesh can be zipped close to help heat retention. All of this, plus it has an easy pole/clip structure to make setup quick and easy.

Coleman started selling gasoline-powered lanterns in 1900. Inventor of the hugely popular fold-up camp stove, Coleman developed a plastic liner for his galvanized steel coolers in 1957--the birth of the modern cooler--and the company has been improving their utility and design ever since. The array of products that bear the Coleman name now includes just about everything you might need to work or play outdoors, from tents and sleeping bags to boats, backpacks, and furniture.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Value for a Strong Tent.
*by C***1 on July 25, 2014*

Very pleased with this tent purchase. I did a lot of research looking for a tent that could handle some different elements and not break the bank. I wanted something small and compact, but I don't need an ultra light. My main concern is rain. Hot or cold, rain is the worst. Luckily I've had good weather when I've taken this baby out. I imagine the rain aspect would be very good concidering the rain fly goes all the way down to the ground. Great feature there. The tent fits two people very comfortably for sleeping. Don't plan on using a cot or air mattress, too small for that. Might be able to play a card game okay in the seated postion. But don't plan on spending a ton of time in this tent. It is not a pleasure suite. It is very utilitarian. The two vestibules are nice for gear and entry. Although one needs to get in and out by crawling on hands and knees pretty much. I'm young so this does not bother me. If you have bad knees or back you might want to look elsewhere. The tent has 4 poles and makes for a very sturdy frame. I like that a lot. I don't want a tent that blows away. I also really like how the rain fly connects with clips that can be pulled to tighten. Great idea! Another great feature is the mesh storage on the interior sides of the tents. Perfect for flashlights, glasses, bottle of water, book, or anything else that you would want close at hand. One negative so far; It gets pretty hot if both vestibule doors are closed. This would be good for fall or winter, but in the summer it really holds heat. This can be fixed by opening up the doors to let air flow in. But if privacy is a big concern, keep this in mind. All in all this is a sturdy, well crafted tent in my opinion.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great two man tent
*by F***N on April 26, 2013*

I've carried this tent on multiple backpacking trips and have used it in the rain. When the temperature drops you can definitely tell it's warmer in the tent, especially if there are two people in it. Easy to set up and can be stake down to be extremely solid. The rain fly has adjustable straps that help tighten everything up. There are multiple storage compartments inside the tent for small items and very large vestibules on both sides for your gear to stay dry. There are a neat little "skylights" on the rain fly that have corresponding flaps inside of the tent to cover or uncover as you please.I would like this tent more if it was lighter, it's on the heavy side. I also would like a footprint made specifically for it. I use a footprint from REI that is slightly bigger but works.I only use this tent for backpacking. I use other gear for the luxury of car camping.

### ⭐ Item falsely advertised not NEW
*by G***0 on September 9, 2012*

at GO CAMPING CHEAP,I just purchased this (new) tent, and the sewn in label on it states it was made 10/26/2008. I believe this is illegal and falsely advertised. Its 4 years old and according to the coleman warranty label it is suppose to be stored in a cool location? Don't know? and the poles fully assembled, they werent, so before even opening it the warranty is void. I thought I was paying for a NEW tent, Not some old inventory at the new MSRP price,this is BS Coleman Exponent Helios X2 Tent
