Very Spacious And Durable

Been using this tent for 10 seasons now. Very easy to get up and down, even by yourself. The material is surprisingly durable, and it only uses a few poles which makes it quick and easy to get up and down. The interior is very spacious and the screened porch is absolutely fantastic for keeping dirt and debris out of the sleeping space. Has plenty of room for an air mattress and kid sleeping arrangements. The case has a convenient tear spot that effectively increases the size of the case making it easier put back away without fighting and breaking a zipper. Love this tent, would buy again.

Spacious Tent With Screened Porch

Evanston Screened 8 Tent offers spacious sleeping room with a screened porch area, providing comfort, ventilation, and added protection from insects outdoors.

1 Min Assembly Easy

Easy 1 minute Pop up tent set up! I say to disassemble as well. 6 person, stable tent with plenty of room for people and your stuff! Coolest tent I ever owned! Rain doesn’t get in the tent with the set up! Has lasted 2 years in the back yard! My kids love it!

Love This Tent!

Love this tent so much and would buy again! I use it a couple of times each year for the last couple of years. The screen area of the tent leaks when it rains. Ideally if the designed was changed just a bit to reduce water. One of the poles cracked on the last trip sadly and not sure if there is a replacement I can get.

Durable And Comfortable

This is my second week-long camping trip with this tent, and it works great for us. I've been fortunate enough not to get much rain, so I can't say it's been leak-tested, but it's been durable and functional. Very spacious, good pockets, very good ventilation bc of the crossbar on the fly. The vestibule is really good for keeping dirt and bugs out of the main tent, and you can keep your shoes there in the corners where there's some protection from rain. The main part of the vestibule is exposed tho, so clearly anything in there will get rained on. And I was able to assemble it alone, though another adult makes it a lot easier to manage bc of the size. The only issue we have is that some campsites don't have enough space for the tents footprint and it doesn't seem to go up well if the surface isn't level all the way to the corners. So I would only get this tent if you really need this much space.

Spacious, Well-ventilated, And Bug-free Comfort Fo

I’ve used the Evanston 8 Tent on multiple trips with friends and it’s been a great experience. It offers tons of space for sleeping bags and gear, and the screened room is a huge bonus—it keeps bugs out and is perfect for relaxing or storing muddy shoes. It held up well during moderate rain and wind, and the ventilation keeps it from getting too stuffy inside. Setup was pretty straightforward with two people and didn’t take long. The quality feels solid, and it’s great for families or groups.

Roomy, Comfortable, And Somehow Stylish

My family has not yet made it into the wilderness with our tent, but we DID make it to the backyard! It kept my family comfortable in the cool Colorado night, and with PLENTY of space for a family board game. I'm so happy I bought an oversized tent- so fun 😊

Best Tent Ever!

I love this tent!! It's so spacious, perfect for an air matress and a cot! Plus having the screened in "porch" is amazing! It's a great place to sit in the morning with my coffee or at night!

Love This Tent, Great For Festivals!

I love this tent, It’s so luxurious to have alone but it’s comfy for like 3-4 people max tbh. It’s nice to have ppl come hang on the screened in porch and hang string lights ^_^

Used Once Only

Great when we used it the first time. I packed it up, put it back in the bag, put the bag in the box, etc. Two years later I opened it up to get ready for camping and EVERY pole is useless as the bungee inside each pole is torn or worn through at the fold. No evidence of an animal getting through all the packaging. No other explanation than wear at the fold?!

Needs Rainfly For Porch

while this is a nice tent with porch, if it rains, anything in porch is soaked. This should have a rainfly option

Better Than A Box

I really like this tent. I don’t really have any complaints about it, but there wasn’t really anything that blew me away either. I think the best part was that the set up was really quick and easy for two people to do. 

Replacement Poles

We purchased the Evanston 8 person tent this year and need to replace some poles. What replacement pole kit works with this tent?

Weathered The Storm

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I previously used the 6-person screened Evanston and had leakage from poor design. This version has remedied the problems. My second night I was hit by three or four thunderstorms with high winds and heavy rain. The tent stayed up and not a drop of rain came inside. Even the screened area did not get exceedingly wet.

Not The Quality Expected From Coleman

Purchased this tent when we became a family of 6 and have only ever purchased Coleman. Have owned less than 2 years and the elastic snapped inside one pole. You also need a tarp under the tent as condensation comes up thru the floor. Was hoping for better quality, but this one just didn't cut it.
