Eureka Northern Breeze 12 Person Screen House Cabin Tent Review

The Northern Breeze 12 Screen House has two doors and a peak center height of 8' 5, which is a tiny bit more than the average height of the 18 other 12 person tents we have examined With 144 square feet of room inside, it is a lot 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 suggested for use in, larger tents like this one can make an awesome choice for groups that enjoy having loads of space inside of their tent.

One of the sweet things about cabin tents is, that the sides of the tent are near vertical making for a sizeable interior, this allows for plenty of headroom at the sides inside, making it feel much bigger than a dome tent, they also, tend to have large sleeping areas, making them great for groups. 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. This dose though make them well suited to colder nights.

PROS

CONS

1. Sensitive to wind. Because of its size and shape, the Northern Breeze 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 144 square feet, the Northern Breeze 12 is smaller than quite a lot of the 19 other 12 person tents we have looked at.
3. No windows. With no windows it is not easy to keep the tent ventilated on a hot summers night.
4. Only one room. The Northern Breeze is recommended for 12 campers, some other tents of a similar size have more than one room allowing for a little more privacy.
5. No Vestibules. If you want to keep your dirty shoes, clothes, and backpacks protected from the elements, you need keep them inside the tent.
6. Heavy. Even though heavy is not in it self a negative, it is worth noting that the Northern Breeze 12, weighs 31 pounds and has a packed size of 14 x 36 inches. Clearly it is designed for camping with a vehicle and would not be super easy to set up on your own.
7. Footprint not Included. There is no included footprint, The floor may be made of tough fabric but it is still best to protect it further with a footprint, more so on rough terrain.
