What Good About Coleman WeatherMaster
The Coleman WeatherMaster is designed to hold six people comfortably while you’re camping, whether for a more extended period or a shorter one. With a 17′ x 9′ footprint, it has enough space for everyone to sleep easily. What’s more important is the ventilation system that allows air to be directed through the privacy vent windows and the vented Cool-Air port of the Variflo adjustable system.

The entire Tent is designed to keep everyone cool in the warmer weather or comfortable in moderate temperatures during the spring and fall.
The setup for this Tent is straightforward because it uses a color-coded pole sleeve system designed to help you with the entire process. It has InstaClip attachments, and the 19mm steel poles help keep the Tent sturdy and robust in less than ideal weather conditions.
It also uses a pin and ring design that helps to improve the ease and speed of getting things set up and making sure you’re ready to begin the fun part of your camping trip. As long as it’s installed correctly, you shouldn’t have any problems keeping yourself and everyone safe within the Tent.
The entire Tent is fully sealed to make sure that water stays out through the leak-free seams, as well as the weather-resistant fabric and waterproof floors. There’s even protection over the zippers to ensure that nothing will come through these fastenings. This is important because many tents don’t have the protection you need in these areas that are otherwise prone to leaks.
The frame is also designed to hold up under strong winds, which may otherwise come right along with the heavier rains that the waterproofing will help protect you against.
Like any other Coleman product, this Tent has a warranty that protects you against any defects in creating the Tent. If you find holes, tears, weak spots, or anything else resulting from poor quality or weakness in the Tent, you can always return it for a refund.
On top of this is a limited warranty for one year that protects against other aspects of owning and using the Tent. You’ll be able to ensure that you and your family are getting a high-quality product that you can trust by a company you know will stand behind their product.
What Not up to the mark about Coleman WeatherMaster
On the downside, this Tent is quite heavy at 32 pounds. That means if you’re planning on backpacking with friends or family, you’re not going to want to take this Tent along with you.
If you’re planning on staying in a campground or somewhere that you can drive your car directly to the site where you’re going to set up, it should be fine, but carrying it over long distances is going to be tiring and more difficult as well because of the size even when it is folded up, which can be awkward to carry as well.
Another downside is the setup process. Though it’s quick and easy to set up this Tent, it’s not always easy to ensure if you know what you’re doing. The instructions aren’t as straightforward as they could be, making setting up the Tent a lot more complicated than it needs to be.
Not to mention you’re going to need a little bit of strength and effort to put the pieces together as they don’t slide together (or apart) quite as quickly as you might prefer, though this can also be used as a test of the durability of the frame.
Comparison
If you’re looking for a giant tent, the Semoo Water Resistant 5-Person is another good option. It offers a decent size and is extremely easy to take down and put up.
This one, however, is slightly smaller than the Coleman version, as it’s only designed to hold five people instead of 6, and it also has only one room instead of the second section that’s offered with the Coleman. However, it is much less expensive, making it a good choice for those who need economy.
If you’re looking for something more significant than this Tent, the Coleman Elite Montana 8-Person Tent is a great option. It’s more expensive than this Coleman and has only one room, but it is tall in the center and has a large footprint to sleep, everyone comfortably. Not only that, but it has LED settings inside the Tent, so you don’t need additional lighting.
On the other hand, you’re paying more, and the amount of extra space isn’t that much more, just it’s in one room instead of split into two.
Verdict
Overall, Coleman WeatherMaster is quite a good selection for larger groups. It is heavy, which is something to consider if you’re going to be walking a distance from your vehicle to your setup location.
You may need a little help to get everything set up from the start. Still, you can trust that it’s going to stay together and hold up against whatever may be coming your way, which will be a benefit no matter where you happen to be camping.
