Even so, you should, ideally, stake down each corner securely; in some crowded campgrounds, however, finding a flat spot with soil soft enough to do that can be difficult. A tent that requires staking to stand up—especially a larger, six-person tent—is unwieldy, and it’ll be impossible to set up on a hard surface such as blacktop or on raised wooden tent decks. To ensure the longevity of your Ozark Trail Screen House, proper maintenance is essential. Regularly clean the screens and frames, and consider applying a protective coating to the materials to shield them from the elements. It is also essential to secure the screen house properly, especially in windy conditions. Overall, the Magnetic Door Screenhouses provides a welcome respite from those annoying bugs, and the convenient setup and lightweight materials make it a worthwhile addition to any picnic setup.

However, I did notice that the tent was not entirely waterproof during our camping trip. It managed to hold up during a downpour, but there were a few instances where water dripped in through the ceiling. It proved to be a minor inconvenience, and I think ozark trail chair it might be worth investing in a waterproofing spray to help prevent any future leaks. Overall, the Ozark Trail 10-Person Camping Tent is a pretty good choice for families or friends looking to have a comfortable and spacious camping experience.

Now and then I walk into a store, it tends to be named ___Mart, and buy something I know is going to bring nothing but grief and heartbreak. Greed, optimism, stinginess, and materialistic guilt thrashing together in a dance of futility that leads straight to the checkout counter? To make matters worse, sometimes I’m so ashamed of the purchase that I can’t even bring myself to return it. Find something simple to set up, reliable, durable and with product support.

(Our runner-up pick comes with eight.) Six is enough to secure the tent and fly but not to fully secure the tent’s extra lines in very windy conditions. These inexpensive stakes are comparable to the ones that accompany the Mineral King 3; these slightly more expensive stakes will serve you well in any car-camping terrain.

The Kelty Wireless 6 is a spacious tent that is easy to pitch, and it offers solid weather protection and durability for a reasonable price. Like the Mineral King 3, it has a simple, dome-style design that maximizes livability and minimize headaches. (As its name indicates, it’s meant to house six people, but we wouldn’t recommend that.) The Wireless 6 has two large doors and a full rain fly.

If we had to spend a day in the tent during a storm, would it be comfortable? After first removing the models that failed the structural tests, we slept, watched the stars, and ate our meals in all of the tents, as well as planned hikes from them. We’re not looking at tents designed for such specialized activities as mountaineering, backpacking, or winter camping, though some of our recommendations have cross-over potential. Great for backyard overnights, this simple dome-style tent is for anyone who doesn’t want to spend more than $150 on a tent but also doesn’t want to buy another one next year. It has a partial rain fly, but only one door and no vestibule. Another potential drawback is that the mesh material is not entirely opaque, which may not be ideal for those seeking complete privacy.
