Who is it for?

The Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent is suitable for 3-season campers, family campers, and car campers.

Tent Brand

This 10-Person Outdoor Tent is from Coleman. Over the years, The Coleman Company, Inc. has established itself as one of the top manufacturers of outdoor recreational supplies, such as camping products. The brand’s tents have found a wide audience thanks to the advanced technologies they utilize.

Tent Shape

The Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent is a hybrid tunnel-cabin-style camping tent.

It has the characteristics of a cabin tent and a tunnel tent. Therefore, it has good headroom and plenty of livable space. It resembles a cabin overall but has a tunnel shape because it has three rings.

Tent Seasonality

The Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent is a 3-season tent. It is a great option from spring through fall. The tent uses many mesh panels to keep you cool. It can withstand an average rainstorm.

The tent has mesh in the ceiling so you can enjoy the starry sky at night when you are not using the rainfly. This is great for warmer climates.

Tent Structure

The Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent is a non-freestanding tent. It is given its structure via stakes. This can make it challenging to pitch the tent in snow or sand.

Tent Fabric Material

The fabric type of the Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent is polyester. This material can be adapted to different weather conditions and is affordable. Therefore it is also very popular.

Denier

The Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent has a 75-denier polyester taffeta fly, 68-denier polyester mesh inner tent, 1,000-denier polyethylene floor. So it is strong and durable enough.

Tent Pole

Steel poles are used in the Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent.

Steel makes some of the most durable and strongest tent poles out there. When the poles enter the continuous sleeve along the body of the tent, it creates a very strong structure that is best suited to handle the wind.

But steel is heavy compared to aluminum tent poles. They are only suitable for car camping. The structure is very sturdy and stable, but you still need to avoid windy areas.

The two eyebrow posts above the windows and the frame of the hinged door are fiberglasses.

Waterproof

The Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent is famous for its WeatherTec system. This means it includes protected seams, wind-strong frame, zipper protection, waterproof floors.

The tub floor comes with patented corner welds, protected seams, and zippers with flaps to help keep water out.

Ventilation

Many things can lead to condensation, including sweating and exhalation. This is more likely to be an issue when it’s much warmer in the tent than it is outside. Whether you’re in a hot climate or a cold one, proper ventilation is important.

The Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent has up to 6 windows. The wide sides have 2 separate windows. The top mesh panel can ensure good ventilation of your tent.

But there are no floor vents here. However, the two downward vents on the sides of the tent ensure ventilation even on rainy days. The windows come with mesh and zipper panels for protection and privacy.

Tent Weight

The Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent weighs 31 lb (14.1 kg). It is a car camping tent. Weight won’t be an issue with these tents in most cases. Only the smallest of vehicles, like smart cars, will have an issue. The weight is the price of a very strong frame.

Tent Size

The dimensions are 17 x 9 ft (518 x 274 cm). Many campers, especially adults and teens, will want to have between 25 and 30 square feet of space.

In most cases, capacity ratings overestimate how many people can comfortably sleep in a tent. Unless you don’t mind being cramped, you shouldn’t trust that number.

It can be helpful to subtract 2 from the tent’s stated sleeping capacity. Another solution is to divide the sleeping capacity by two. If you do this, you can assume that everyone will have plenty of space to stretch out. This also means you’ll have ample room for gear.

Tent Height

The Peak height of the Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent is 80 inches (203 cm). You shouldn’t just look at peak height when determining if a tent has enough headroom. This number measures the tallest point of the tent.

To get a sense of the interior height of the tent, you should subtract 2 inches from the tent’s peak height. This can keep your head from brushing up the ends of the tent. This is because the end of the tent may get wet with condensation overnight. Wall geometry is also something that you should consider.

Since the Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent is a hybrid tunnel-cabin-style tent, it has good headroom.

Set Up

You can easily set up the Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent in 20 minutes. But we still recommend that you should practice setting up your tent at home. This way you can set it up quickly before the storm or the sun goes down.

Tent Rooms

The Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent has 2 rooms. It comes with a removable divider. This is an excellent option for families with children, or adults who are camping out with friends and need some level of personal space and privacy.

Tent Doors

The Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent has 2 doors. Multiple doors help you avoid climbing over each other for midnight bathroom breaks.

One of the doors is the hinged door. This is a design with poles that go along the perimeter of the door, and this makes the door a rigid and usually D-shaped structure. This is all about convenience, you have a feeling of a real door at home. You don’t have to worry about zippers all the time.

Rainfly

A rainfly is a separate waterproof cover that is made to fit over your tent. The Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent has a roof-only rainfly. This type of rainfly allows more views and light while providing sufficient protection from the rain.

Pockets and Organizers

Organizers and pockets are excellent for keeping track of your gear inside the tent. You can neatly store your eyeglasses or headlamp in easy to reach pockets near where you sleep at night.

Tent Price

It’s a best-selling tent and has been selling for nearly a decade. You can buy the Coleman WeatherMaster 10-Person Outdoor Tent at a reasonable price and get good quality and rich features. It offers a 1-year limited warranty.
