This is a review of the Ozark trail 9person cabin tent with screen house Ozark trail, tent, screen house, cabin, cabintent, Walmart, camping, outdoors, hiking,
how big is the sleeping portion of the tent vs the screen porch. item says 14'x13.5', but what is the split between the sleeping space and the porch. Thanks
If anyone is interested I am selling this very Tent it is still in amazing condition not a thing wrong with it its just that now me and my son have moved on to light weight and our tents now fit in our packs if you live in the long island area and are interested leave a comment
Thank you so much for the video! I got this tent with the 2 queen air beds for a festival. I have been searching for a video to see how much of a pain it was going to be, and this actually looks like it is going to be simple to put up with 2 adults! Is the rain fly easy to put on as well? Also is this waterproof, or will I need to spray it?
The smaller instant tents look impressive and simple. This 9 person one looks like I would never want to set it up if high winds threatened. It looks like Bad Physics; far too much wind lift for the minimal pole system. It reminds me of the old basic rules of engineering: "Overstressed structures have a way odd relieving themselves, but wouldn't you really rather do it yourself?"
#ozarktrail normally you need 2 ppl to do this thought my son would of helped mor lol camera shy but we have set this up on windy days with me and my wife. And we had it up in 5 min wind rain and all. My friend has the #ozarktrail 4 person easy up and had more problems do to it being so light ours made the cut due to it being heavier.
Every now N Again with Jeff Thank you for the input. I advise people on my channel on many areas of camping and prepping, so I really appreciate your input. Is the fabric heavier, or was it maybe the added overall weight that the tent had?
I’m thinking of buying this tent. What are the dimensions of just the tent, not including the screen room? I can’t find that information anywhere. Great video!
I will be setting up the tent this weekend coming I will get the dimensions for you but to give you an idea of the sleeping quaters you can fit 3 xl cots or 2 queen air mattresses and still walk around if your just doing sleeping bags you can fit 9 adults if kids 12 of them slept just fine
Honestly in my eyes they are equals I own both ozark and Coleman tents other than logos I do not see much of a diffrence other than price ozark is much more affordable in my eyes
@@MTFL007 nope never once we fit 4 ppl in there plus a small table and cooler so its roomy also it helps at night w hang an extra tarp over it and make it a second room for the ones who cant sleep
I put my rainfly on before the legs are extended, since I'm short. I clip it with small spring clamps to the roof poles so there is still enough play to erect the tent. But that makes it so it's at least over the very top of the tent. After poles are extended, remove the spring clamps, one at a time, and attach the velcro at each pole top, before doing anything else. Ensures stability before you stake the guy lines.
Iam so sorry for that. now with the weather getting better i will do one putting it on . the rain fly is actually the easiest part of the whole tent. But i never thought that it might be difficult for someone else i am on it
brewatch we've been using an Ozark trail instant cabin tent for about 5yrs now with no trouble at all. Zippers can stick sometimes, but zip slower and it's no problem. Other than that, I'd seam seal and silicon spray them.
i am very happy with this tent and its still moving strong i am very sorry about the supper late reply family issuse held me back alot of sadness but i am back i am going to do another video on the tent with the rain fly many ppl have been asking if your not already just subscribe so you can be up to date iam doing more than just reviews these days but the reviews are coming back more thank you for your support
brewatch not a single regret the tent is amazing no leaks not a thing and it has been used over oh gosh 1w may be 14 times with 3 heavy rains i give it 5 stars all the way
Lauren Staton yes it dose i mentioned it in the begining with 2 ppl it slides on no problem with an 8 yr old helpping give yourself about 5min lol sorry for the late late response
Thanks for the review !
Your welcome
how big is the sleeping portion of the tent vs the screen porch. item says 14'x13.5', but what is the split between the sleeping space and the porch. Thanks
What you used as the floor for the screen room, was the room divider
Puzzle pads are the best..so sorry about the late reply
Actually it wasnt the room divider is the other pc that has the pockets and the clear pocket to mount your tablet like a tv .
Does it get stuffy and keep heat in with the rainfly?
Does it fit king size air mattress?
If anyone is interested I am selling this very Tent it is still in amazing condition not a thing wrong with it its just that now me and my son have moved on to light weight and our tents now fit in our packs if you live in the long island area and are interested leave a comment

Hi.. WICH IS BETTER COLEMAN OR OZARK?
Honestly in my eyes they are equals I own both ozark and Coleman tents other than logos I do not see much of a diffrence other than price ozark is much more affordable in my eyes
is the flooring tarp material ??? last ozark tent I returned because the flooring was the same materials as the wall
Its the same but a little thicker i have used this tent over 10 times with the scouts and haven't had one rip or tear. And we use cots inside
How big is the screen room ?? Does it let bugs in
@@MTFL007 nope never once we fit 4 ppl in there plus a small table and cooler so its roomy also it helps at night w hang an extra tarp over it and make it a second room for the ones who cant sleep
Does the tarp flaps on the bottom of the screen stay out ? or get tucked under the tent ?
Why don't you show adding the top rain fly? I have to do this (by myself)?

Sorry to hear of the rough patch. I ended up getting a Bushnell shield 9 person. It's great and roomy.
brewatch Glad to hear you found something that worked out for you that is also a Great Tent good luck with it
brewatch not a single regret the tent is amazing no leaks not a thing and it has been used over oh gosh 1w may be 14 times with 3 heavy rains i give it 5 stars all the way
does it come with a rain fly?
Lauren Staton yes it dose i mentioned it in the begining with 2 ppl it slides on no problem with an 8 yr old helpping give yourself about 5min lol sorry for the late late response
Put the fly on before you raise the tent up. One person job that way.
