The BEST 8 Person Instant Tents 2023 Core vs Coleman vs Ozark Trail

Over a hundred and seventy dollar Ozark Trail tent completely fell apart on me and my daughter. I had to tape the tent together with military issue 100-mile-an-hour tape. Yes, I had to tape ozark trail wall tent the tent poles together at night because the snaps failed miserably when the wind blew gently and caused the tent to completely collapseā€¦ in great weather, with little wind, and no rain.

I think that this 35 dollar tent could outlast the expensive ones. Mine is red and black and the rainfly covers everything ozark trail canopy except for a tiny place to get in. We have never been able to sleep in it and makes a poor storage room.

Called “Walmart, the high cost of low prices” it will explain to you why the product there is so cheap. I received my Ozark tent from my grandparents, which I used 9 years ago when we went camping with them. I had bought this tent thinking it was going to be dry, man was I wrong. I will never buy an Ozark Trail tent in my life and I will tell everyone I know that if they buy one what to expect.

Although polyester is fairly resistant to mold, my biggest area of concern with the tent is figuring out a good way to dry it properly before forgetting about it in your garage. If the tent is saturated, you should try your best to leave it standing with the doors and windows open until it completely dries. Ozark Trail makes an affordable quality family tent, and this 10-person instant cabin tent is no different. The tent itself is nice and roomy, and boasts a 6-foot peak height to make changing clothes a drama-free endeavor. Despite having the smallest capacity of the tents we tested at 42.5 square feet, the Mineral King 3 easily fits two people with a full-size mattress, or two sleeping pads, and gear.

When something says “waterproof” it does not mean it will not leak. And as with any experienced camper, we all know that tents are not waterproof, even if it says money back guaruntee. So next time you go camping instead of relying on a Walmart special, use your head. My husband and I decided to head to the Texas coast for our 10yr old’s first camping trip. I LOVE the room first of all , and the looks were very eye pleasing too.
