Eureka Midori 4 Person Basecamp Dome Tent Review

The Midori 4 Basecamp has two doors and a peak center height of 5' 0, which is a tiny bit smaller than the average height of the 141 different 4 person tents we have examined With 64 square feet of room inside, it is a little bit smaller than some other 4-person tents, and it could be a little tight for you and, up to three other campers throughout the 3-seasons, this tent is recommended for use in, smaller tents like this one make an excellent choice for campers that prefer spending plenty of hours outside of the tent enjoying the fresh air.

A few of the cool things about dome tents are, that they are generally speaking not too heavy, making them simple to carry around. In near all instances, tents used for backpacking are of the dome type. They are generally speaking, freestanding and very straightforward to set up. In calm weather, you can do without guy lines and stakes, not that this is recommended.

Dome tents are without a doubt the most commonly seen of all the different types of tents you will see when camping. They tend to do better in the rain 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 top of the tent. The most basic dome tent should have a square footprint, slanted walls a couple of poles which converge in the middle of the roof. Due to the way they are made, it is usually thought of that they are best suited for up to a maximum of 6 campers.

PROS

1. Freestanding. The Midori Basecamp 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. Vestibule. Having one vestibule. Offers you somewhere to store shoes and other things that can get dirty, muddy, this is a big plus.
3. Internal storage. It is nice to see Eureka has added a gear loft and pockets in the interior to store some of your stuff.
4. 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.
5. Breathable. The Midori'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 summer.
6. Available in other sizes. Eureka has also made this model available in Other Sizes.
7. Low price. It is a great purchase for a 4 person dome tent providing this much space. Not a lot of tents available on the market provide this level of quality for only $249.95

CONS

1. Not spacious. With a floor area of 64 square feet, the Midori 4 is smaller than quite a lot of the 141 other 4 person tents we have looked at.
2. No windows. With no windows it is not easy to keep the tent ventilated on a hot summers night.
3. 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, more so on rough terrain.
4. Discontinued: Unfortunately this particular tent has been discontinued on the manufactures site and is no longer available elsewhere, that we know of.
5. A little heavy for backpacking. Even though the Midori 4, looks like a small tent, it is not ideal for backpacking as it weighs 8 pounds. This is quite a lot more than many other backpacking tents
6. Sloping walls. Even though Dome tents have heaps of things to be positive about. The sloping sides do tend to make it all the more smaller inside.
