My takeaway is that if you spent $5 more on a can of spray silicone you'd have a true comparison. Of course the $300 tent already has been treated. So the $35 tent would have been as dry as the $300 one
That was a pretty fun comparison between the two. Thanks for putting yourself through storms and tornadoes and hurricanes and whatnot to give us good reviews. You're crazy and that's why I like you LOL
I used that ozark one for about a week up in Breckenridge near Bakersfield. Had some rain that turned to snow and it did fine. BUT I did spray it with weatherproofing first, but I'd do that with any tent. Didn't use seam sealer though. An alright investment if you aren't planning consistent long term use imo. But then again I've heard stories of crazy people using those ozark tents for years without issues.
3:42 am and I’m setting in front of a fire on my suchdeco portable fire pit watching your video I was asleep in my onewind hammock and my kids crashed my sleeping party lol it’s sprinkling right now but hey I’m happy that $30 tent is worth the money if it don’t rain to much. Good looking lake you have there 🔥⛺️👍 enjoyed the video!!!
There is alot of different ways to have the zipper flap not interfere with the zipper. Every thing from one side / or two bonding tape. Friend of mine just put the clear adhesive ( to jang things on walls )tape with some old yent material. He made tabs on flap. Wish one could put two tents and make one prefect. The positives of Ozak is the extra area and the light inside does show the world what you are doing.😊
Thanks for this comparison video. I’m on a fixed low income, so I was considering buying an Ozark Trail tent, but your video is having me look elsewhere for a better more waterproof tent. Thanks again, and happy camping!
I have the ozark trail. I have a can of silicone spray for it but its currently winter and I don't need it yet but I'm in New England with incredibly rainy spring weather. Ya know its a great budget tent. And then it will end up my guest house tent! Lol! But I'm sorry I didn't like the Wolfson very narrow. I think you for the video. When I finally save up for the mansion tent I still don't know which one I want.
This might sound like a silly idea but the idea of applying all-weather duct tape to a large cardboard box, and then testing it in a storm seems fun. Btw Ive been struggling a lot with my mental health and these videos help me escape
@@LifeWithKernelLee i did have the three person ozark trail tent but zipper was a huge problem so I threw it away and went smaller so far ok but waiting for the zipper to fail as it always does
I've bought a large Ozark Trail tent for our family. It rained ans we were drenched inside the tent. I got rid of it. Then I heard good news about the OT tent you are reviewing in this video. So I bought it, spent a snowy night inside the tent, and water came in from the sewn in corners. Ozark Trail tents are BAD NEWS.

Haha, sho nuff
I like your videos, full of good, practical information and not a lot of drawn out BS.
Thank, but sometimes I feel I may ramble on too long🤣

They are not a bad tent but like you say, how will they hold up over time. Im glad yours is working good for you, not a bad tent for $30
i love ozark trail tent, cheap, easy and multi purpose.. 😎😘

Howdy, thanks for watching, sounds like you have a nice setup. I have some onewind products as well. Good products.
A little seam seal for a few bucks on the Ozark, then you have a steal!!
True that
Great video comparisons on the tents kernel !!! No better way to test them out than that, love that thunder, sound good , 👍
Was good testing

I’ve got a 3 person Ozark trail. It’s fine. Not sure I would use it during a rainstorm…but for general shelter camping? $40 over $300 every day.
I hear ya

Your very welcome and thanks for watching. There are tons of good budget friendly tents out there.

It is a good budget tent for sure, the other one is pretty narrow. Lots of good selections out there. Thanks for watching
Nice video as always.Thanks. Very informative.
Thanks and thanks for watching
That Ozark Tent Does Not Have the Secondary Rain shield that the One I bought came With!
Hmm
Pretty cool stuff. I'd go for a Jack tent, but my hammock is way to comfortable 👍
Haha, i hear ya
Like # 28. Have you ever tested a Coleman tent? I heard they are a good tent at a low price.
I haven’t yet but I think in the near future I will. Thanks for watching Bill, glad to hear from you

I’m going to go with OT for my GS troop in CA. We don’t deal with a lot of weather.
Good choice for the climate your in

Actually thought about doing chicken wire and spray foam (great stuff)
I jus bought the ozark trail one person backpacking tent let's see who wins man
It did pretty good I thought

Yeah ive never had much luck with ozark trail tents
This one leaked in the video but not near as bad as some others ive had
Wow! Windy!
Very
You are comparing a $300 tent to a $30 tent, I'll go with the Ozark Trail.
It performed pretty well, didnt leak as bad as I thought it would
Sleeping alone? Never!!
Ha
I vote for the $30 tent lol jk
I was surprised by the $30 tent, thought for sure there would be a lake in there
Avoid all ozark trail products. Garbage
Agreed
