Coleman 2-For-1 All Day 2 Person Dome Tent Review

The 2-For-1 All Day 2 has three windows and one door and a maximum center height of 7' 2, which is 37 inches more than the average height of the 238 different 2 person tents we have studied. With 42 square feet of space inside, it is a lot larger than some other 2-person tents, and it easily offers enough room for you and, another camper during the whole of the 3-seasons, this tent is approved for use in, smaller tents like this one often can make a good choice for campers that welcome spending plenty of hours outside their tent getting some air.

Many of the fantastic things about dome tents are, that they are under normal circumstances lightweight, making them simple to carry around. In nearly all instances, tents used for backpacking are of the dome type. They are usually, freestanding and very easy to set up. In calm weather, you could do without securing the tent with stakes and ropes, not that this is recommended.

Dome tents are the most commonly seen of all the various sorts of tents you will see when camping. They tend to do better in storms than other types, allowing rain to roll off the slanted sides, unlike cabin tents that have flat roofs, allowing the water to pool on the top. The simplest dome tent should have a rectangular footprint, sloped walls two or more poles which converge in the middle of the roof. Due to their construction, it is generally thought of that they are best for up to a maximum of 6 people.

Down below, you can check out an account of the tent's strongest and weakest points.

PROS

1. Freestanding. The 2-For-1 All Day 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 floor with the included steel stakes and guylines.
2. Tons of space. With a center height of 86 inches (more than 6 feet) and a floor area of 42 square feet, the 2-For-1 All Day gives you a lot of space. Most campers can stand inside the tent without ducking their heads.
3. Lots of Headroom. With 37% more headroom than similar-sized tents, one can easily count this as a plus.
4. Internal storage. It is good to see Coleman has added a gear loft and pockets in the interior to store some of your things.
5. Has awnings. The awnings shelter the sides of the tent.
6. More than one window. With 3 windows it is simple to keep the tent cooler on a hot summers night.
7. Includes FootPrint. It is quite rare to see a footprint included with a tent. It is strongly suggested to always use a footprint, so not having to buy one is a plus.
8. Available in other sizes. Coleman has also made this model available in Other Sizes.
9. Low price. It is a great buy for a 2 person dome tent providing this much space. Not many tents available on the market give this level of quality for only $187.49

CONS

1. Susceptible to wind. Because of its size and shape, the 2-For-1 All Day may not do best 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. No Vestibules. If you want to keep your dirty shoes, clothes, and backpacks protected from the elements, you need keep them inside the tent.
3. Rainfly does not wholly cover the tent body. The rainfly only covers the ceiling and part of the tent body from the top. Meaning it might not protect against heavy downpours.
4. Heavy. Even though heavy is not in it self a negative, it is worth noting that the 2-For-1 All Day 2, weighs 41 pounds and has a packed size of none inches. Clearly it is designed for camping with a car and would not be super easy to set up on your own.
5. Discontinued: Unfortunately this particular tent has been discontinued on the manufactures website and is not available elsewhere, that we know of.
6. A tad heavy for backpacking. Even though the 2-For-1 All Day 2, looks like a small tent, it is not ideal for backpacking as it weighs 41 pounds. This is quite a lot more than many other backpacking tents
7. Sloping walls. Even though Dome tents have many attributes to rave about. The sloping walls do tend to make it all the more smaller inside.

Coleman's 2-For-1 All Day 2 tent is great for car camping. Here are a few other things not already mentioned above which, we found and liked, while researching the model: Spacious front porch offers protection from rain and sun, Strong pole design is more stable, even in the wind and Versatile design lets you use the shelter with or without the tent.

With positive ratings, a few reviews and a center height of 7' and 42 square feet of area to sleep, this tent is like your own miniature studio.

Value for money: In so much as value for your money, this tent is significantly cheaper than the average price of all the two hundred and thirty-eight, two-person tents we have studied, this alone does not make it remarkable value for money.
