Coleman Sundome 2 Person Tent Review

The Coleman Sundome 2 Person Tent is ideal for first time campers. There is enough space for 2 people to move around the tent and a place put their personal belongings in.

This tent weighs at 3.2 kgs so it’s even on the light side for a camping tent but a bit heavier than the average 2 Person hiking tent. It comes with its own carrying bag with extra storage for your other gears.

Certain models boast a Dark room technology which blocks sunlight allowing the tent to stay cool even during the summer. This is also plus for campers who want to sleep in the morning.

There are two windows in the tent which provide enough ventilation. With the help of the hooded rainfly, you can even leave the windows open during the rain.

Setting up will be a breeze. The tent can be pitched within 10 minutes. You just slip the poles in the snag free pole sleeves and you’re done!

The WeatherTec system keeps the tent water proof and the tub like floor makes sure that water won’t be coming in the tent during rainy season even if the tent only has a half fly.

Coleman Sundome tents come in two colors: Navy Blue and Green. It’s also available for 4-person and 6-person tents.

Set up couldn’t be more simple or straight forward and will easily be fully pitched within 5 to 10 minutes. Unfold the 68D Polyester tent and flys cover, extend the frame poles which then clip into the corners of the tent. Attach the remaining clips on the tent to the poles as you extend it up and then peg the tent to the ground. Done!

Once the main tent is set up you have the option of attaching the half flysheet which will provide additional weather protection and have a minimal impact on ventilation. The tent and half fly screen will give you great protection from moderate rain, however rain with strong winds will put the breezy design to the test.

Speaking of ventilation, the tent has a single entrance with a large rear window making it perfect for warmer weather.

Despite having a 149cm high domed roof, the floor plan is rectangular and will fit a queen size bed. Advertised as having capacity for 4 people, it will get quite warm in more tropical camping conditions with 4 people sleeping in it at once. The addition of the internal pockets at both sides of the tent is a convenience that is quickly becoming the norm, but is always a welcome addition to keep valuables and electronics off the floor and away from dust and sand.
