Eureka Copper Canyon 12 Person LX Cabin Tent Review

The Copper Canyon 12 LX is Eureka's largest tent, and it has four windows and two doors and a maximum center height of 7' 0, which is a little bit less than the average height of the 14 different 12 person tents we have examined With 168 square feet of space inside, it is considerably smaller than some other 12-person tents, and it would be quite cramped for you and, up to eleven other campers during the whole of the 3-seasons, this tent is recommended for use in, larger tents like this one can generally make a nice choice for campers who welcome having plenty of room inside of the tent.

One of the many advantages of cabin tents is, that the walls of the tent are basically vertical creating a sizeable interior, this allows for much more headroom at the sides inside, making it feel much bigger than a dome tent, most of the time, they tend to have large floor areas, so they are great for larger groups. In general cabin tents most often used by people going on a camping trip in a car or a truck as they are quite heavy when compared to dome tents. That dose though make them better suited to colder nights. Cabin tents often have more than a single room, like the Eureka Copper Canyon two-room tent

PROS

1. Freestanding. The Copper Canyon LX 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. Has Gear Loft. It is nice to see Eureka adding a gear loft in the interior to store some of your things.
3. Has awnings. The awnings shelter the walls of the tent.
4. More than one room. The Copper Canyon is designed with two rooms, allowing for extra privacy. Great for a large family and groups who do not want to be all sleeping together.
5. Removable divider. For those who want to maximize all of the available space that the Copper Canyon provides, the divider can be removed to have one large room for everyone to share.
6. More than one door. With 2 doors, it is easier to get in and out of the tent, in the middle of the night if needed.
7. More than one window. With 4 openings it is easier to keep the tent ventilated on a hot summers night.
8. Breathable. The Copper Canyon's interior uses a mesh fabric on the inside of the tent, and this helps maximize the flow of air. With the extra ventilation, and this tent is great for use in the warmer months.
9. Other sizes are available. Eureka has also made this model available in Other Sizes.

CONS

1. Susceptible to wind. Because of its size and shape, the Copper Canyon 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 want to stake and tie it down correctly.
2. Not roomy. With a floor area of 168 square feet, the Copper Canyon 12 is smaller than quite a lot of the 14 other 12 person tents we have looked at.
3. No Vestibules. If you want to keep your dirty shoes, clothes, and backpacks protected from the elements, you need store them inside the tent.
4. Rainfly does not completely 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 downpours.
5. Uses Fiberglass poles. Even though the poles are comprised of fiberglass & steel. Using even some fiberglass with a big tent like the Copper Canyon 12 could possibly lead to problems, if there were to be extreemly windy conditions.
6. Heavy. Even though heavy is not in it self a negative, it is worth noting that the Copper Canyon 12, weighs 36 pounds and has a packed size of 11 x 29 inches. Clearly it is designed for camping with a car and would not be super simple to set up on your own.
7. Footprint not Included. There is no included footprint, The floor may be made of Polyester taffeta but it is still best to protect it further with a footprint, especially on rough terrain.
