Core 9 Person Instant Cabin Tent - 14' x 9', Green (40008)

2024 Camping Season UPDATE:We beach and forest camped probably over 100 days in the 2024 season. We camped through a horrible heatwave, beach hurricane like downpours (with only the rainfly - I did have to stand up and hold the walls a couple times because the winds were so strong the rain would come up under the rainfly while blowing in the sidewall) I still absolutely love this tent. Easy up, easy down, fits in the bag. Zippers still zip. Only issues are a couple patches in the mesh top and a couple small holes on the flooring part simply from being put up/down so many times and it being rolled up having metal hinged/popup poles. Still 10/10 would highly recommend. Not only this specific tent, but the Core brand. I got a smaller tent for my teenage daughter and now also an easy up canopy with an attached side wall too and I am very happy with every purchase.June 2023 follow up:Camped in torrential downpours for almost a week and had absolutely no issues with water or leaking. Had an extra tarp over to make sure, but even with the winds and heavy rain, not a single issue. Even more pleased with this tent than before. I love the nights we can sleep under the stars and have the rain fly off - easy to take on and off with one person if need be. It has served us well all summer!!Original review:After having to sort a snafu with Amazon, the ‘new’ tent I bought had dirt all over the bottom… finally took it camping for memorial day weekend and was impressed.I camp with a toddler and teenager who are lovely but not the most helpful. I chose a pop up as opposed to the traditional tent poles for this reason. I was able to put it up and take it down on my own. I have a joint disease and arthritis especially in my hands, so it was very important to have something I could assemble quickly with ease. So much better than the fiberglass/metal poles you have to feed through and try to put up especially with a bigger tent. I was even able to get it back into its bag.Recommend wearing work gloves for ease as well.The mesh top is incredible. We laid there just staring at the trees. The rain fly is easy to put on and take off even alone.It didn’t rain when we went, so I’m unsure on how rainproof. One day was windy and had no structure issues.There are helpful YouTube videos for setting up and taking down. Recommend watching them before attempting…it’s simple but a bit confusing the first time.Pros:- Set up/ took down solo- Zippers and pulls seem to be good quality. No issues getting caught on first weekend use- I like the air vents and huge mesh windows and roof for airflow- The slit for a power cord is so smart (Didn’t use yet because placement of campsite and electric, but better than running a cord in the door letting bugs easily walk inside on the cord, I love the idea)- Couple pockets sewn into the inside were useful.- We fit a queen air mattress with plenty of room, could fit another easily- Can stand up no issue, I’m 5’7” and had plenty of headspace- Actually fits back in its bag, just takes patience to roll it small enough- Didn’t use a tarp for the footprint this time, but will probably for longer trips, the ground fabric/material seems durableCons:- there’s already a couple holes in the mesh top (I purchase mesh patches to fit next time we go camping)- Hole in the green wall too (same plan to fix)- I’m sure the poles are sturdy, I’ve never had a pop up before, but I get nervous they’re a bit flimsy. No issues yet, but I was very careful.Overall high quality. Worth the extra cost for the simplicity of the set up/take down in our situation. Looking forward to our next trip!

The media could not be loaded. Ok I just opened the box and I had to write a review. I never review products but this tent is so amazing I have to put my two cents in. I was worried about other reviews reporting that there were holes in the netting and that it was difficult to erect. Let me say, I love this 10 and I can’t wait to head to Shenandoah national Park. I have your always use Coleman traditional tents with the bungee poles that you have to fish through the loops. It took me about 20 minutes to disassemble and have all of it packed back in the carry bag. It’s huge!!!!!! No defects. Checked all seams and everything was perfect. I could easily fit two queen size air beds or cots and have plenty of room for luggage. As of right now I am extremely happy with quality, fast shipping, ease of assembly, space (my car can probably fit inside) and height( no more bending over to get changed) After my camping trip I will let you all know how it holds up and how we do with August temps in the Shenandoah National Park.UPDATE: This tent was amazing. We spent five days at big Meadows campground in Shenandoah national Park. Again I put the tent up by myself in about five minutes. Not one zipper pulled on fabric or netting and I was with two impatient teenage girls. It poured rain one night with thunder and lightning and we had not one leak. The cross ventilation was perfect. The one thing that I really liked about this tent was the way the zippers are designed it is really impossible to catch any fabric. I can’t say enough great things about this tent. We used the divider and the teenage girls slept on one side with all of their teenage girl crap. And I had my car set up on the other side with my hiking pack and various other supplies and the tent was still very roomy. I am so pleased and it was such a delight over those old-fashioned tent poles that I booked two more camping trips for September.UPDATE: I had to update this review after our latest camping adventure late March early April to a barrier island off the coast of Ocean City Maryland. Severe weather conditions beach camping ocean front. Monsoon like conditions for 12 straight hours with 75 mile an hour wind gusts. Not one drop of water!! I am 100% honest and serious not one drop! During one of the 75 mile an hour gusts the front end of the tent took a little dip from up top in the center attachment but nothing an extra rope tethered to the fire pit couldn’t fix! When we woke up in the morning we found that 90% of our fellow campers bailed sometime in the middle of the night but we stayed toasty warm and completely dry with 10 completely intact and standing on all legs. I was a little skeptical about this rain fly but after what I experienced this past weekend I know this tent could withstand anything!
