Coleman OneSource Rechargeable 6 Person With Airflow System Dome Tent Review

The OneSource Rechargeable 6 With Airflow System has three windows and one door and a peak center height of 6' 0, which is a little bit smaller than the average height of the 118 various 6 person tents we have studied. With 100 square feet of room inside, it is a tiny bit smaller than some other 6-person tents, and it could be a little cramped for you and, up to five other campers during the whole of the 3-seasons, this tent is suggested for use in, larger tents like this one are a suitable choice for campers who appreciate having plenty of space inside the tent.

A few of the cool points about dome tents are, that they are for, the most part light, making them easy to carry around. In near all cases, tents used for backpacking are of the dome type. They are generally speaking, freestanding and very simple 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 other sorts of tents you will find when camping. They tend to do better in storms than other types, allowing water to easily slide off the slanted sides, unlike cabin tents that have flat roofs, allowing the water to pool on the roof. The simplest dome tent should have a rectangular footprint, sloped sides a couple of 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 campers.

PROS

1. Freestanding. The OneSource Rechargeable With Airflow System can support its own weight on any terrain. It does not need 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. Internal storage. It is nice to see Coleman has added a gear loft and pockets in the interior to store some of your stuff.
3. More than one window. With 3 windows it is simple to keep the tent cooler on a hot summers night.
4. Other sizes are available. Coleman has also made this model available in Other Sizes.
5. Low price. It is a great buy for a 6 person dome tent providing this much space. Not a lot of tents available on the market provide this level of quality for only $235.00 info_outline

CONS

1. Vulnerable to wind. Because of its size and shape, the OneSource Rechargeable 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. Not spacious. With a floor area of 100 square feet, the OneSource Rechargeable 6 is smaller than quite a few of the 126 other 6 person tents we have looked at.
3. Lacking in Headroom. With 9% less headroom than similar sized tents, one can see how this could be a negative thing for some campers.
4. Only one room. The OneSource Rechargeable is recommended for 6 campers, some other tents of a similar size have more than one room allowing for a little more privacy.
5. Only one door. With just one door to get out in the middle of the night, it could disturb other people that are sleeping.
6. No Vestibules. If you want to keep your dirty shoes, clothes, and backpacks protected from the rain etc, you will have to keep them inside the tent.
7. 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.
8. Uses Fiberglass poles. Even though the poles are comprised of steel & fiberglass. Using even some fiberglass with a large tent like the OneSource Rechargeable 6 could possibly lead to problems, if there were to be extreemly windy conditions.
9. Footprint not Included. There is no included footprint, The floor may be made of WeatherTec systems patented welded but it is still best to protect it further with a footprint, more so on rough terrain.
10. Sloping walls. Even though Dome tents have lots of qualities to rave about. The sloping walls do tend to make it all the more smaller inside.
