Coleman Tent Darwin 2-4 Person | Compact Lightweight Dome Tent | Models with Darkened Bedroom | Camping, Festival and Hiking Tent | 4500mm Waterproof | with Sewn-in Groundsheet

Best tent ever. I never leave amazon reviews but I needed to share my experience as I found tent shopping very stressful!I purchased this tent for a 4 night trip to Silverstone in July 24. I was going on my own, I hadn't camped since I was 12 & was clueless to what I needed and how to put up a tent.This tent is worth every penny and more.Firstly the tent is super easy to put up. I'm 5ft1 was on my own & managed to put the tent up quite quickly with no issues. I did practice twice at home, instructions fairly clear. Its light weight to carry and transport.The main thing - durability. This tent was one of the few that survived the worst downpour & storms last July. For content It was thundering, severe winds of 40 mph+ & the camp side flooded - a lot of people actually had to go home because their tents were submerged in water but this little tent didn't leak or collapse!! Very expensive tents ended up getting abandoned and the air tents collapsing. The wind was so bad the corporate clamping tents blew away but not this thing!! Im still in disbelief that it didn't flood!Now if a review says the tent leaked there's one of two reasons. Either 1. It was damaged prior to putting it up. 2. It wasn't put up right.As with all tents I would recommend sitting it on an extra groundsheet. The only issue I had was water coming into the entrance mat because theres a small gap but thats a design flaw on a lot of tents. But if youre looking for a festival tent this is the one! Sizing wise it is small. Two adults will only just fit in comfortably, I'd recommend sizing up if you have a lot of bags or don't have anywhere else to put clothes (i.e a car).

Really pleased with this tent. I am a solo camper with a dog. Really easy to put up. It might be a tight squeeze for 3 adults but ok for 2 + child. Gave me and the dog lots of room, plus our stuff. Chose it for the size, the price and that it had a porch groundsheet. Good ventilation as well.

Likes - fairly compact, quick and easy to put up (inner first and chuck the outer cover over), most importantly warm and dry. This was tested in bonnie Scotland's finest of gale and pouring rain for 24 hours straight. Wind proof too. Didn't feel a draft inside as the gales howled by.Dislikes- I ordered the 3 plus expecting a reasonable amount of space. I had 2 single air beds inside and there wasn't a chance we could fit even half of a third one in so it's deffo a 2 man with a little space unless you want to be really up in each others face as a 3.The outer porch area if you like isn't sealed off due to the outer layer going over the top so anything at the edges sticks out under the top cover and got wet in the rain/not "secure".The elastic toggles on the outer layer are glued together, 2 of them broke on first use due to the severe winds - luckily I noticed and just tied them back together.Overall, disappointed with the size but it did the job well for my partner and I. I won't be able to use it with my niece and nephew as well though as originally hoped but I'd definitely recommend with this in mind and buy another Coleman product as a result.

First things first: yes, we got water in the porch area (from one side only) but there was a storm and the wind was blowing really hard. Having said that. During that same storm we kept dry and cosy in the actual sleeping compartment. The tent is great, we love our space so we actually got the 4-person one for just two of us which was very useful in a situation where we had to spend lots of time in there shielding away! Super easy to erect, super easy to take down and pack away. Just fab all round. The porch area is super useful, during the storm it did provide that very much needed transitional space that's neither outdoors nor indoors. Perhaps there is something we could do to seal it even better but with the way the wind was blowing I'd say we got very little water in there! My only advice would be to not assume the porch is a place to dump any valuables or anything you don't want to get wet, but why would you?

Took this tent to Skye/Scotland. There was just me and one other adult with bags. Would be OK for 3 adults and bags but a bit of a squish with 4. Has the porch bit at the front which is ideal. It did rain but not a great lot,no heavy storms,but didn't leak at all and stayed dry. Only downside to this tent,for me personally is that when you open the main door after it's rained,due to the angle the door is on,the rain flows off the door and into the porch all over the floor. I don't have the zip for easy cable access either which was awkward but we worked around that. I have mobility issues and my sharing partner has issues with hands but between us both as a first time setup it took around 10mins to put up. It does go.bavk in the back with some thought along with all poles and pegs, and we even managed to fit a groundsheet in the bag too,despite the bag being quite small. It looks good,it's sturdy,it was waterproof for our 1 night if rain,and fit in the bag. Can't complain and if it's on offer,I recommend you grab it whilst you can. Seriously underrated tent that's worth much more than what is sold for.
