Big Agnes Titan 6 Person mtnGLO Dome Tent Review

The Titan 6 mtnGLO has two doors and a maximum center height of 6' 2, which is a little bit smaller than the average height of the 107 other 6 person tents we have studied. With 84 square feet of room inside, it is considerably smaller than some other 6-person tents, and it would be quite cramped for you and, up to five other campers throughout the 3-seasons, this tent is recommended for use in, smaller tents similar to this one can make a nice choice for campers who enjoy spending lots of hours outside their tent getting some air.

Many of the fantastic things about dome tents are, that they are generally speaking light, making them easy to carry around. In near all cases, tents used for backpacking are of the dome type. They are usually, freestanding and very easy to set up. In calm weather, you can do without guy lines and stakes, not that this is suggested.

Dome tents are easily the most common of all the various sorts of tents you will find when camping. They tend to fair better in bad weather than other types, allowing water to roll off the sloped sides, unlike cabin tents that have flat tops, resulting in the rain pooling on the roof. The most basic dome tent should have a rectangular footprint, sloped sides two or more poles which converge in the middle of the roof. Due to their construction, it is usually considered that they are ideal for up to a maximum of 6 campers.

Below you can find a list of the tent's strongest and weakest points.

PROS

1. Freestanding. The Titan mtnGLO can support its own weight on any terrain. It does not even have to be staked down in most cases. But in case of strong winds, it is always best to secure it to the ground with the included steel stakes and guylines.
2. Internal storage. It is good to see Big Agnes has added a gear loft and pockets in the interior to store some of your things.
3. More than one door. With 2 doors, it is simpler to get in and out of the tent, in the middle of the night if needed.
4. The rainfly completely covers the tent body. The rainfly covers the whole body of the tent from the top to the bottom and has a waterproof rating of 1500mm. Meaning it will easily protect you against heavy rain.
5. Other sizes are available. Big Agnes has also made this model available in Other Sizes.

CONS

1. Sensitive to wind. Because of its size and shape, the Titan may not do well in strong winds if it is not firmly secured with the provided guy lines and stakes. Even though the tent is listed as freestanding in all but very calm conditions, one would need to stake and tie it down correctly.
2. Not roomy. With a floor area of 84 square feet, the Titan 6 is smaller than quite a lot of the 107 other 6 person tents we have looked at.
3. No windows. With no windows it is not simple to keep the tent cool on a hot summers night.
4. Only one room. The Titan is recommended for 6 people, many other tents of a similar size have more than one room allowing for a little more privacy.
5. No Vestibules. If you want to keep your dirty shoes, clothes, and backpacks protected from the rain etc, you will have to store them inside the tent.
6. Footprint not Included. There is no included footprint, there is one available separately specifically for the Titan 6 footprint Even though the floor may be made of Polyester taffeta, it is still best to protect it further with a footprint, especially on rough terrain.
7. Sloping walls. Even though Dome tents have lots of attributes to rave about. The sloping sides do tend to make it all the more smaller inside.
