CORE 6 Person Instant Cabin Tent with Wall Organizer

I am a 5' 4" 64 year old female who camps alone. I just put this tent up by myself in about 2 minutes as a trial run. It took about the same to tear it down and pack it back up. It might take longer to put up if you're in very windy conditions. I wanted a tent that would be roomy enough after dark ( or in rain) to sit inside in a chair to read, stand to change clothes, etc. It's huge. After using a smaller dome tent for several years, the room inside and height of this tent are great. . Several other reviewers commented on difficulty getting the tent back into the carrying case. This may be a new modification, but there is a zipper at the bottom of the case which increases the depth of the case (sort of like expandable luggage) and made it very easy to get it back inside the case and ready for the next adventure. Highly recommend this tent. .

I received it today and set it up by myself in a minute ( not counting staking it down and installing the rain fly with stakes too...maybe another five or ten minutes). I car camp at national parks and use a large cot and a small folding table in my tents. This tent is large enough for my needs and I can walk around in it (I'm 6 ft tall). The net stuff holders attach nicely and seem very functional. I ordered a plastic tarp to put under it. I also purchased some higher end stakes (recommended) and have a good rubber mallet. For the price this is a good buy.I just finished an eight day road trip and used this tent. It is so easy to set-up. I purchased a large duffel bag to put it in because I never can get these tents back into their original bags. Best car camping tent I've ever owned!

This tent is FANTASTIC! I camp alone or with one other person and there's plenty of space in here for a full size air mattress, clothes, gear, could put a couple chairs in here and a small table, it's a lot of room for 2 people. I also appreciated the 6' ceiling and being able to stand up straight inside.This tent has so much ventilation as well, windows on either end and two windows on the front side including the door. Plus the entire top is mesh if you leave the rain fly off. Then something i'd never had in a tent before, floor vents. If you go someplace where there's a little bit of a breeze, air should flow through this tent pretty well. Unfortunately where I was camping my first day out, there was very little wind.Putting the tent up is easy, it is really as fast as advertised once you have some practice. Then there's around 12 pegs, four for the legs, four for the rainfly and then 3 or 4 more for the ground vents and the door. So it's pretty well pegged down when you're finished with them, it seems like it should handle wind pretty well.I've had a tent with a ceiling mounted shelf before and this had one too. But this one also has a mesh gear catcher across the back wall of the tent which is real handy for stuff. I put my 7" tablet in one and laid on the bed and watched a movie while going to sleep. Also stashed my phone, keys, wallet and bottle of water. I never knew i needed one of these until I had one lol.The only two negatives I have to say are this. First the door zippers drove me nuts, the curve of the upper right corner of the door with the zipper was difficult to navigate. I would say the zipper door on this tent is the most difficult to use i've ever had to deal with. Now possibly messing with the pegs you can change the pressures and find a happy place but it was just an annoyance all weekend. The second somewhat negative is while the setup instructions are great, you're left on your own to figure out how to break it down and CORE has no videos on the topic. I ended up watching a Coleman insta-up breakdown video to figure out how to pack up my CORE tent. The company should have its own videos, i mean how hard is it to film and put something on youtube these days, it's a no brainer Core.

On the first camping trip with this tent we experienced about 2 days of solid rain. I had not yet treated the tent with seam sealer and was a little worried. The tent held up great! there was (almost) enough room for me to stand up in the center of the tent (I am 6 foot 3), my wife (5 foot 9) was amazed at how easy it was to move around in this bad boy.Good amount of air ventilation and windows, the storage "rack" that is on the back wall of the tent was a great thing to have. We put a queen air mattress on the left side of the tent and a folding chair on the right side.I know it says it is a 6 person tent, but we will be using it for just two people most of the time. Makes a great two person tent for car camping (glamping). When the rain started we hosted 2 other couples in the tent to play some card games, the tent accommodated all six of us, even with two of us sitting on folding chairs.I would like to have the option of a larger rain fly so that there would be somewhere to store some gear or shoes outside of the tent without them getting wet. We had to take our shoes off in the tent since it was raining so hard, ended up with a nice muddy area by the door but that was no issue in the long run.

Caveat: We just took this on our first trip; I'll update if the info changes.Terrific tent! As easy to set-up as described. One person can do it, though two people did it twice as fast :). Zippers withstand adult and toddler yanking without breaking. Handy mesh pocket in the side and on the top. Bottom was standard tarp material and seemed tough -- we used it without a tarp underneath, but might use an additional tarp for protection in the future.A nice feature is that the storage bag is expandable. This allows you to put the tent back in, even if you (a) are in a hurry because your kids are melting down, (b) include a bunch of mud on the bottom of the tent because you didn't sweep it off, (c) are not a magic tent-packing leprechaun who can get tents into their from-the-factory original compact condition. Of course I cleaned off the tent when I got back home -- I'm not an animal.
