ColemanSkylodge 10-Person Instant Camping Tent with E-Port, Mesh Storage Pockets, Ground Vent, WeatherTec System, and Carry Bag, Blue and Black

Box came all destroyed and was desperately held together with packing tape to “close” it. Once actually opened, the poles were not pre attached like it is said in the title and the description of the product. The packaging bag of the actual tent doesn’t even say it is an instant tent, it is a Fast Pitch tent. You still have to put the poles together and attach it to the tent. False advertisement

I recently purchased the Coleman tent advertised as an "instant tent". Upon receiving the product, I was disappointed to find that the box clearly states it is a"fast pitch tent," which is significantly different from an instant tent. The main reason I chose this product was for its instant setup feature, but the fast pitch system requires more effort and time, contradicting the advertised ease of use.

I traded in an old tent to upgrade and buy this one thinking it was an instant tent as advertised. I was very disappointed to find out it in fact was not. Although this tent is well made, sturdy, and prevented me from getting wet in the rain, it is NOT an instant tent. It actually took me way longer to put up. Another con: no ventilation on the ground level. It does have plenty of windows and a screened roof, but when you’re sleeping or changing and don’t want onlookers, it was very stuffy and hot. Probably a better tent for cooler weather, unless you have electricity to cool you down inside.

Weather not perfect for trying out yet.

NOT for camping in rainy weather. Inside did NOT stay dry. Water coming in through walls and seams. Door zippers are also leaky. Too bad it’s outside the return window otherwise I would have returned it. Terrible performance, not what I would’ve expected from Coleman.
