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.

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.

My family has been using this tent periodically for around 3 years now, I felt like it was a good time to give a long-term review. Summary: Great tent, incredible price, but don't get excited about the porch. The Good: -The price is RIGHT. Dollar for dollar you can't beat this tent, especially since it's frequently listed at nearly half off retail. -Ventilation is fantastic. This is THE tent to go for if you're a summer-camping family, bar none. Huge mesh windows on both sides and the rear wall of the tent. I've been camping a long time and it's rare to see this much ventilation in a conventional dome-style tent. -Easy setup. Two crossed fiberglass poles for the main body, one arched pole for the porch, and a single short pole on the rain fly to pop out the two corners. Can be setup in 5-10 minutes by capable campers. Can be done solo but due to size is helpful to have a helper or two. The only thing that gets a bit tricky is the rain fly. There are a LOT of guy lines that frequently get tangled, and it's a bit awkward to get it hooked over the porch initially as it likes to slip out of position while you're staking it out. -Spacious. We have used a queen size air mattress with a twin and a pack-and-play for our youngest and still had plenty of room for duffel bags and backpacks. -Shockingly weatherproof. I took a gamble on this tent for the ventilation, specifically wanting it for really hot lakefront camping during the summer months where temps routinely end up in the 90's with high humidity. However, where we camp is prone to sudden and fierce thunderstorms, especially in the evenings and overnight. The amount of mesh concerned me to say the least. That said, I've been in some serious booming storms with a lot of wind, and have yet to feel a drop on my face in this tent. I've been very impressed. In fact, storms are now my favorite time to be in this tent as you get all the benefit of a cool breeze with none of the spray requiring you to zip your windows up or leakage from the seams you get in other tents. FYI: I always seam-seal the rain flys of my tents before first use, in this case using gear-aid Silicone diluted with a bit of mineral spirits. I cannot vouch for the seam integrity without sealing them. The Bad: -As mentioned, the fly can be a bit tricky to get on solo. -The tent stakes are trash. This is a minor gripe, because frankly every tent ships with the same garbage throwaway stakes. -Folding the tent... Kinda sucks. It's pretty prone to forcing an air-bubble to the end when rolling it up that has nowhere good to escape, which means slowly forcing the air through the nylon to get it packed away. the included bag is functional but EXTREMELY tight, in the wrong direction. The tent needs to be carefully folded to EXACTLY the length of the folded poles, or you're going to do a lot of smashing to get the bag zipped. - The porch is useless. It doesn't affect the functionality of the tent itself in anyway, but don't get excited about the porch. It's low enough and tight enough to feel very cramped if you're trying to sit and talk with someone, virtually impossible to put more than one chair in without blocking the door, not weatherproof, and prone to pooling water in all but the most ideal circumstances. We left some shoes and a cooler on the porch the first trip we used it, caught a storm and everything in the porch was soaked. Since then, the only use it has served is giving us a glorified doormat to kick our shoes off in and a second barrier for bugs, which IS helpful with kids that don't always zip up correctly. It helps keep the dirt and sand out of the main tent a bit I suppose, but honestly I think the tent would be better off without 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.
