Coleman Prairie Breeze 9 Person Cabin Tent Review

The Prairie Breeze 9 has six windows and one door and a peak center height of 7' 0, which is a little bit bigger than the average height of the 9 various 9 person tents we have studied. With 140 square feet of space inside, it is a little bit smaller than some other 9-person tents, and it could be a little cramped for you and, up to eight other campers throughout the 3-seasons, this tent is recommended for use in, larger tents like this one can generally make a very nice choice for groups that like having loads of room inside.

One of the awesome things about cabin tents is, that the walls are near vertical creating a larger interior, this allows for plenty of headroom at the sides of the tent, making it feel much larger than a dome tent, also, they tend to have wider floor areas, so they are great for families. Normally cabin tents will be used by people going on a camping trip in a car or a truck as they are quite heavy when compared to dome tents. It dose though make them better suited to colder months. Lot’s of cabin tents have more than just one room to stay in, just like the Coleman Prairie Breeze two-room tent

3. More than one room. The Prairie Breeze is designed with two rooms, allowing for more privacy. Perfect for a large family and groups who do not want to be all sleeping together.

CONS

1. Susceptible to wind. Because of its size and shape, the Prairie Breeze 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 spacious. With a floor area of 140 square feet, the Prairie Breeze 9 is smaller than quite a lot of the 9 other 9 person tents we have looked at.
3. Only one door. With just one exit to get outside in the middle of the night, it could disturb other campers that are sleeping.
4. No Vestibules. If you want to keep your dirty shoes, clothes, and backpacks protected from the rain etc, you need keep them inside the tent.
5. Rainfly does not wholly cover the tent. The rainfly only covers the ceiling and part of the tent body from the top. Meaning it may not protect against heavy rain.
6. Poor Heat Retention. The general design of the Coleman's Prairie Breezes interior is designed to easily let air in and out. Therefore, it cannot keep heat inside, making it unsuitable for use in cold weather.
7. Heavy. Even though heavy is not in it self a negative, it is worth noting that the Prairie Breeze 9, weighs 35 pounds and has a packed size of 41 x 14 x 9 inches. obviously it is designed for camping with a car and would not be super simple to set up on your own.
8. Footprint not Included. There is no included footprint, The floor may be made of PE (Polyethylene) tub style welded floor but it is still best to protect it further with a footprint, more so on rough terrain.

Coleman's Prairie Breeze 9 tent is perfect for car camping.
