CORE Family Camping Instant Cabin Tents with Quick Setup

I’ve had this tent for about 2 and half years now and I love it. It’s super quick and easy to put up, literally done in a few minutes including staking it down. I can’t stand putting poles together, so this tent is perfect for me. I’ve only had one issue and it was a small tear in some of the mesh screen on the ceiling, however I think it was my fault on ripping it and I easily fixed it with some repair mesh tape. Other than that, no issues, it’s very durable. I also appreciate the height, being able to stand up inside is nice. The air flow vents work well also when staked out. I’ve never had any issues with leaking or waterproofing, it works great in the rain. We use cots and its fits 2 with plenty of spare room. Would definitely recommend.

If I were a tent salesperson, this would be THE tent I recommend! I am in my 50’s and very out of shape. I got this tent and I cannot begin to tell you how EASY it was to set up! You have to tug on the poles to extend them but they snap right into place. Everything unfolds to the point you don’t even really need to read the directions! :) I was so shocked and elated when something actually delivered what they advertised!! Very satisfied after my first weekend trip sleeping in this one. The ventilation is great! You do have a rain fly that comes with the tent and snaps right onto the poles. Easy peasy! Want to know what’s even easier!?? Taking it down! Bright buttons that you press on the four sides take no effort and it miraculously falls right back down. Fold it in reverse from the way you folded it out to set up. I was able to get this tent back into its carrying bag!! I have never done that before. I did a little dance! I hope no one was watching! lol Seriously, this tent is spacious, didn’t leak, set up like they claim it will, and the tear down and putting away was a breeze! Go ahead and get this one!

Well, they weren't kidding when they said this sets up easy. I was able to get the tent "up" in under 2 minutes by myself, except for the rain fly. With a breeze blowing, the "fly" can be challenging to get it on without an extra set of hands. I used this a base camp tent and was able to put a cot, small bedside table, larger 28" square table, heater, and bins inside without feeling cramped. Headroom was decent, except if you hang a light from the center point-then watch your head. The tent did fine in 10 mph breezes. There was no rain, so I can't speak to its waterproof-ness. Pros: Sets up fast. Rain fly can pose a challenge if windy. Nice ventilation from all of the openings. Spacious with the upright side walls Very bright inside Cons: The entry zipper hangs up when opening and closing. Usually this happens towards the bottom near the "color change" in the fabric. The zipper is not very stout and I'm not sure how long it will last. The tent is not easy to take down and store in its pouch. It took two people to get this done. The legs want to flop open after you fold them inwards, making the job more difficult. The stakes that come with it are worthless for hard ground. Buy better ones. The tent is very transparent. There will be no secrets as to what you are doing inside if you have a light on.

I was very pleasantly surprised at how easy this tent is to set-up. I am a 70's something retired health care worker who does solo camping. Over the years I have been looking for a tent that is easy to put up and gives me added space. I wanted something I could spend a rainy day in besides sitting in my car. The 6 person Core Cabin provides room for a cot, a chair and all my belongings I want to keep dry. A 4 person Core Cabin may have given me adequate space, but the 6 person is also big enough for my two small grandchildren to join me. The 6 person cabin tent, took all of one minute to set-up by myself, first time I used it. The rain fly and staking took a few more minutes. So EASY. It rained the first night and throughout the next day. The tent stayed perfectly dry. Zippers work just fine. ceiling and wall net storage units are perfect. Taking down took a little longer, yet if you follow Utube instructions it folds up nicely and yes, does fit back into the bag with some careful folding. Quality is good, seams are strong. Good value for the money. It does weigh more that my hammock tent, but I consider the distance I need to carry it and the benefits of the space and privacy I am getting. I highly recommend the Core Cabin tents.

We’ve been camping for decades, and have owned and setup several tents over the years, and this one is the easiest to setup by far! One person can have it up, literally, in under two minutes. No poles to put together and feed through. Poles are built in. All you do is lay it on the ground, unfold the corners and pick up from the center and extend the corner legs. So simple, so easy. Lots of headroom, windows and ventilation. We’ve had it in rain and there was no leakage and no water inside, no bugs and the build quality is great. The only downfall, if you want to get picky, is that the main door zipper has a tendency to get caught on the flap that goes over it. Very minor issue. Overall I can easily say this is the best tent we’ve ever owned, hands down!

This is a beautiful tent, it was so easy to set up too. I am very mechanically challenged and I was alone with my surly teenager and we still managed to set it up in five minutes. It was so roomy! It fit two thick inflatable twin mattresses, a queen and a twin, with plenty of room in the middle for backpacks etc. It did rain one night, not heavily, but a relentless Pacific Northwest drizzle, and the rain fly kept us dry. The window zippers moved easily, and it had lots of nice little tiebacks and little loops on the ceiling to hang small lights. This is probably the nicest tent I’ve ever used.

Amazon Warehouse sent me a broken tent listed as a product in "MINT condition". This was for a special trip in a very remote campsite. No store whatsoever is nearby to purchase a replacement and we had to cut our trip short. Amazon, thanks for ruining a beautiful vacation with your false advertising. No refund could make it right, but $30 credit is insulting. Do better, Amazon. Core, take a look at what they're doing to your reputation--I was a repeat Core tent customer.

Great tent. Easy to put up and take down. Fits back into bag effortlessly. Also worth noting we had severe storms 5 days out of my 7 day inaugural trip with this tent and it stayed bone dry. Another great Core tent. Highly recommend.
