Hey guys! If you found this review helpful, and you’re planning to buy this Coleman tent, please consider supporting this channel by using my affiliate link to Amazon here: amzn.to/3PEWTOv There's absolutely NO cost to you at all, but I get a small commission from Amazon if you buy anything through my link. Your support is what allows me to continue buying and testing gear like this! 😊 🙏 Thank you!! Also, a special thank you to @sparky790 for the lovely Super Thanks! 🥰 And please ignore the mask in this video! I used to wear it only cos I was camera-shy 😂
Great review - ive been looking at upgrading my $30 tent to something a little larger but was having trouble finding good reviews on budget tents till I found your channel. I appreciate the effort that you are putting into these ridiculously thorough reviews.
@sparky790 Oh wow thank you so so much for the Super Thanks!! It really means a lot, and I'll definitely invest it into more camping gear for this channel for sure! 🥰 And I'm really happy that you find these reviews thorough and helpful! If you ever have any questions, please feel free to reach out and I'll do my best to help you k? 😊 I hope you find a great budget tent to upgrade to!
Great review! I have seen other reviews on the setup of the Evanston but this is the best I have seen with direct setup points. One review on the setup shows staking the tent at the beginning of the setup vs yours showing it occurring at the end. The other videos look like the individuals were having difficulty in their setup. I love how your setup is more simplistic. I bought this tent and will be using your video to assist me in the process. If you ever decide to do a video on how to attach an additional tarp to cover the screen room and the best method of securing it, I would love to see it. Again good job on the review. Your attention to detail should assist you in doing reviews far beyond tents. You obviously have a knack with formulating instructional videos. Thank You
@Robear Thank you so much Robear! I'm glad that you like the videos on the channel and the details too, it means a lot that you think so! 😊 Hmm actually if you're camping somewhere windy, you might want to stake it down lightly at the beginning of the set up to prevent the wind from blowing the tent away and also to help you set up some of the poles. But otherwise, you can just stake them down nearer the end of your set up 😊 Glad that you find my method more simplistic though! I'm happy to hear that. I'm glad that you got this tent too! Let me know if you ever have any questions yeah? I'll be happy to help you out in any way that I can! And noted on the tarp video! I'm not planning to do that yet as this channel is currently focused on just reviews at the moment, but if I ever do create that video I'll be sure to let you know 😊
Excellent review! I own this tent. We chose to seal all the seams on the tent before we used it. We have used it a number of times in wet and in VERY wet conditions and we've yet to have a leak. Staking the front of the tent is critical. If you are camping on hard or rocky ground it can be hard to stake the front of the tent. When the front of the tent is not tensioned properly it can be difficult to get the screen room doors open. I am 6'4" tall and it is all bending over all the time. We will eventually upgrade to a larger tent, but for the money our Coleman Evanston tent is just what this review says it is. This is an excellent tent for the money and, if you think ahead a little and seal it properly it will keep you dry while also being very well ventilated! Thanks for another great review!
@covenant11 Thank you so much for sharing! Glad to know that after sealing, the tent won't leak! 😊 And yeah I agree with the screen room doors! Another of my Coleman screen room tents don't have the additional stake loop for the screen room, so it's even more difficult to zip the screen room doors open and shut. And oh wow you're so tall! (I'm envious!) But yeahhh bending over all the time is definitely not the most comfortable. I think the only Coleman tent I have that will accommodate your height is the WeatherMaster! The rest of my Coleman tents aren't as tall. Alternatively, I think cabin tents would be a great pick for you too! (When you upgrade.) I totally with your review and comment as well on this tent, and thank you so much for always taking the time to comment on my videos, it really helps the channel 😊😊😊
@@CampingGuidance I really like your channel and I hope to see it grow! I think we are settled on the Columbia Mammoth Creek 10 Person tent you also reviewed! It is a bit of an investment though so it will have to wait a little longer. I will hope to use your affiliate link as your review sold us on that tent outright! I know your videos take a lot of work but you do a fantastic job!
@@covenant11 Aww thank you! It's slowly growing, so I'm happy about that. And thank you in advance for using my link!! It definitely means a lot and helps me out a lot too 😊 And yes unfortunately it's a bit of an investment! I've seen a few people pick the 8-person version instead of the 10-person, I think it'll save you quite a bit of money, so maybe that's something you can consider 😊
Another adorably well done review Liz. Your rain tests are appreciated. If I were to try them here in Los Angeles I’d be tarred and feathered by the water police.
Aww thank you so much Kim, as always! Really appreciate it 😊 Oof I'm so sorry to hear that (I had no idea!), but I'm really glad that I can rain test these tents for you 😊
Great video!!! Thank you!! Question, I want to get a floor tarp for under tent protection. I want it to look nice and neat. What would be the best size tarp to get so that it still looks neat? Thank you young lady🙏🏻
Thank you!!! 🥰 And no worries feel free to ask any question you may have! Do you plan to put a tarp under the screen room as well? Or just the tent itself?
Thanks for your review. Tried your link but amazon requested new registration. When I used it, didt want to do that. Probably just me tried. If I hate it your fault lol.
Hmm that's strange. It should send you to just a regular Amazon homepage. Thanks for letting me know though! How did you manage to get it in the end? Haha
I believe because of the permanently opened large screened window in the back, this would allow a kerosene heater to be used in the tent and not have any CO2 issues. Possibly even cook indoors.
@Robear This tent does have quite a bit of ventilation when I used it, but I'm not sure about cooking indoors (I usually never do that) or the kerosene heater though (I only camp in summer, so I've never used a heater), but let me know if you do try it out! I'd be interested in hearing your experience 😊
I owe more expensive tents from REI and MSR, this one is of my favorite tents, works good in humid environments, don’t get condensation. Easy to put up. Cheap to replace
Thank you so much for sharing Ed, that's definitely good to know! 😊 Yeah I love how reasonably priced this tent is, it's definitely worth the amount you pay for it!
Another great review, Liz! This tent looks like having someone to help with setting it up would be best. Kinda looks like a pain in the butt to set up by yourself. LOL
Thank you so much again Jesse! Hahaha yeahhh it's definitely gonna be a lot easier with someone helping you, but personally I found it quite manageable on my own after getting used to the set up process. 😊
@@CampingGuidance "I found it quite manageable on my own" Yeah, but you're a pro! LOL Most folks just set up a tent 2-3 times a year. You do it 2-3 times a week! 😂
Please help!!! Got the 6P Evanston out of storage and set it up However, the porch zip front bottom half is almost on the floor. It appears the porch pole may have stretched the mesh roof too much so that the front section doesn't have the tension to 'stand' straight up anymore. So one has to really stoop to get in and even opening the zip is a pain. Also the dome tent zip didn't zip up and we had to painstakingly push in one tooth that was aticking out. Hope it stays that way. One Con I'd add to the Review is the zips at the bottom of the porch going up, which allows insects in if not tightly shut. A bathtub of 6 inches, like the Dome Tent part, could've solved that problem.
Great review, I will definitely buy my tent through your link. Could you help me with the decision between the Evanston 6P or the Skydome with Screen Romm. What do you think about these two stores, and what would make you decide on one or the other? I am worried about ventilation and rain. If you release a video I will be attentive and will definitely buy through your link.
Hi Ian! Thank you in advance for watching to support the channel, it really means a lot to me 🥰 Hmm for rain protection I think the Skydome would be better for sure cos the rainfly is much longer. Ventilation is about the same for both, at least in my experience. Let me know what you think!
this was a great review. I was very tempted by this tent, because I am so frustrated at virtually ALL the tents available, having mesh walls and ceilings - I live in Wisconsin where it is COLD, and I do NOT want all that stupid evil ventilation at night when it is COLD! thanks to your review, I found out even this one also has a whole back wall that is just mesh. I could not tell before, thought it might have all normal walls with just window for ventilation. Do you know of any affordable tents that do NOT have this terrible mesh instead of walls and ceilings? I have 2 Eurekas, & used to have a Coleman Montana - LOVED the bathtub flooring so much, and room for my queen blow up bed, plus a chair, table and gear. I need it affordable, with the tarp flooring, and no mesh walls/ceilings. 3-6 person would be good, as I am 6' tall & can't stand it too short. thanks again for the great review!
Hi Cynthia! Thank you so much for your comment and for sharing, I really appreciate it, and I'm glad that you liked this review 😊 Glad that I could show you what the mesh walls of this tent look like! The marketing pictures online can definitely be deceiving and not show the whole picture. But oh man I tend to camp only in summer, it's super hot where I am, so I really love lots of mesh and ventilation, and I haven't had experience camping in anywhere less than 80-90F. :( Hmm but I've had some viewers share with me that they managed to use this tent in the cold, by guying out the rainfly of the back wall really close to the wall of the tent, so there's hardly any room for the cold to get in there. Is that an option for you? Otherwise, would you like to share with me your budget? I've actually just recently tested the REI Base Camp 6, there's very little mesh, a full rainfly, great waterproofing, 6p capacity, I can stand up fully in it, and it fits all your needs except for budget. Could you wait for the May REI sale (it might go for 30% off) and snag this tent while on sale? Or would something else less expensive be better?
Is there any option to cover the screened room area? I am having second thoughts about this tent since to drain the water from that area can be a pain. I was actually looking for a review that would give me detail on how bad the screened area issue would be and I am glad you covered that in ur review.
You're most welcome Varun! I'm glad that I could help you cover the issue on draining water 😊 And yes you can actually use a tarp to cover the screen room area! I think the best option would be to erect a big enough tarp in an A-frame over the tent. I hope this helps! 😊
Hi Liz and all! Please help! I want to buy a tarp as footprint for this exact tent, since I do not find an official Coleman's. What tarp size would you recommend? Would you suggest me another brand that makes footprints instead? Many thanks for your detailed reviews. I love them. Upvoted and already subbed
Hi again Mr. B! Hmm I don't think any other brand would make footprints for Coleman tents, because footprints tend to be exact match for the base of the Coleman tent. I actually use just inexpensive tarps (like those blue ones) to keep the tent base clean. It doesn't have to be an exact match, it can be slightly bigger than the base, but you've gotta fold the excess fabric back in underneath the base. I think I mentioned all the dimensions in the video, but let me know if you'd like them again or if I missed out any! And thank you so much for your sub and upvotes and comments, they mean a lot and you're so kind 😊
Hey AJ thanks so much for the input! I'm glad you liked this review too 😊 And yes I totally agree. It's a little bothersome that it's not covered from the rain and to do so, you gotta put up another tarp, which kinda takes away from the user-friendliness. The price point is great though 😊
@@ajmartinez1906 Thanks for the reply AJ! 😊 Oh! Did you have the Carlsbad tent? It's almost exactly like this (with some minor differences), plus with the dark room too. But yeah the no protection for the screen room is a little bothersome haha
@@ajmartinez1906 Hi AJ! Hmm, that depends. I usually try to stick to more mainstream tried and tested brands when buying gear, and if I wanna buy it on Amazon, I check to make sure that the store is authentic and not some low-quality knock-off. Which tent are you looking at getting on Amazon?
Hi Nico! Thanks for the question. Hmm it's been a few years so I'm not sure if I remember it correctly, but I think about $120-$130 USD? I think! I don't think it's risen too much 😊
After watching this video I’m left to wonder what’s the difference between this and the Carlsbad? Is it just the dark room technology? If so, why not just call it a Carlsbad without the tech 🤔🤷🏾♂️😂
Hi Romulus, thanks for another comment, really appreciate it! 😊 Hahahaha there's actually not a lot of difference, IMO. The Evanston has a little more rainfly protection over the screen room, while I noticed that the Carlsbad rainfly covers only the dome tent. Also, they come in different sizes (Carlsbad 4P and 6P, Evanston 6P and 8P). And of course the dark room tech like you mentioned! I can't understand why Coleman makes these different tents with different brandings but they're so similar either! 🤔🤔🤔
@@romulus7495 Hmmm I haven't actually really made my mind up on that actually hahaha. But I think for now the dark room feature of the Carlsbad tips the scales in its favor. I really like Coleman's dark room feature (although my Carlsbad dark room feature is defective hahaha)
Hi! It's cos we're both camera-shy hahaha 😅 The masks was meant to hide our faces from the camera, since it was going on TH-cam. Not the smartest idea I had, I know. I did leave a note at the beginning of the video on this 😊
