Ozark Trail 5-in-1 Convertible Instant Tent and Shelter Review

It is an Ozark Trail Dome Tent that is a 4-person tent. It is 9×8 with its height being 4 feet tall. You never know what kind of weather you may encounter but try not to pitch it if you know it will rain. Even so, the roof openings have hoods over them, so there’s no easy way for water to leak through. Instant set up has become a huge selling point for many models out there.

This I do not think a lot of people realize. But I do not plan on buying a new tent anytime soon. I received my Ozark tent from my grandparents, which I used 9 years ago when we went camping with them. The design change I want to comment on concerns the little “laundry room” that protrudes out the back of the tent. The short pole supplied for that protrusion splintered in two places and poked about four small holes in the black fabric of the laundry bubble. Better instructions on how it should be installed would have prevented the splintering, but I would rather have seen the “laundry room” not be an outside protrusion from the back of the tent.

Rather it should have been a large pocket on the inside of the tent that requires no pole at all. Again, I AM a soldier with nearly 30 years experience in putting tents together. This Ozark Trail tent is, sorry to say this, ozark tent a POS. It sucked the trip the camping everything because the damn zipper broke and I got beast up on by mosquitoes and bugs. My experience is buy Coleman equipment not yours. Tyler is our editor-in-chief at the Tent Hub.

85 outside so this should not have happened. I just bought the 9’x7′ backpacking tent 2 days ago, because I want to do some bikepacking here in FL. It is easy to set up and take down, and I loved the fact that it has three windows for lots of circulation in the heat and humidity. ozark trail canopy Sturdy, super easy to set up, Nice carrying case on wheels, great price for how solid this tent is.

I really liked the way it looked and the space but will not be able to use it due to the leaks. I must say that nothing is waterproof, water resistant is a better term. I bought a $3 bottle of seam sealer followed the directions and have not had a single issue with water since. I live in Canada and find these tents to be very good. If you a experienced camper like myself you would know that you have to use a tarp to cover your tent so that the water does not get inside when it rains. And you have to make sure that the zipper is closed well and also sprayed with a water repellent.

We appreciate that the frame has been made of tough steel, as this ensures that it will stay stable throughout moderate winds. With the help of the provided stakes and guy ropes, you can stake it down, so it remains secure. With these openings, it gives the wind somewhere to go. It can flow right through and out the other side, since the vents are facing each other. Plus, you can open and close them using small pieces of Velcro, so the power’s all in your hands.
