From the screened porch room to the adjustable ventilation features, the Coleman WeatherMaster 4 screened tent is packed with features for comfort and convenience at the campsite. The WeatherMaster 4 is outfitted with Coleman's exclusive WeatherTec system, a series of technical features intended to protect you from inclement weather and nasty storms. 
The WeatherMaster 4 includes a floorless screened room for meals or gear storage. | WeatherTec tents are built with a coated polyester fabric combined with anti-wicking thread, webbing, and zippers, all designed to keep you dry when the rain comes down. The tent's welded waterproof floor and inverted floor seams, meanwhile, dramatically increase the water resistance by hiding the needle holes inside the tent and away from the elements. And in addition to offering fully taped rainfly seams, the included rainfly covers the doors and windows tightly and incorporates easy-to-use Velcro frame attachments. Add in a strong, wind-responsive frame--which uses redesigned poles and guy-out triangles to anchor the tent--and you have a shelter that performs like a brick house during a storm. In fact, Coleman is so confident in its WeatherTec system that it exposes its WeatherTec tents to a rain room that simulates nasty downpours, and to a wind machine capable of blowing hurricane force gusts. The results? Even after the tests, Coleman guarantees its WeatherTec tents will keep you dry. The WeatherMaster 4 boasts a footprint of 14 by 9 feet and a center height of 80 inches, helping up to four people sleep comfortably in the tent with elbowroom to spare. The floorless screened room is an especially nice touch, as it gives you a covered spot for eating meals during a rain shower or taking a break from the sun. You can also store your gear in the room, giving you more room in the sleeping area. And campers will love the Coleman Variflo system, which lets you control the airflow in conjunction with the vented Cool-Air port. Other features include an easy-to-set-up design with continuous color-coded pole sleeves and shock-corded poles; reverse angle windows; a privacy vent window; an interior gear pocket; an electrical access port; and easy-to-follow instructions sewn into the durable carrying bag, which comes with extra storage bags for the poles and stakes.

About Coleman More than 100 years ago, a young man with an entrepreneurial spirit and a better idea began manufacturing lanterns in Wichita, Kansas. His name was W.C. Coleman, and the company he founded would change life in America. A man plagued with such poor vision he sometimes had to ask classmates to read aloud to him, Coleman saw a brilliant light in 1900 in a drugstore window that stopped him in his tracks. He inquired about the light inside and discovered he was able to read even the small print on a medicine bottle by the illumination. The lamps had mantles, not wicks, and were fueled by gasoline under pressure instead of coal oil. Soon afterward, Coleman started a lighting service that offered a "no light, no pay" clause--a big step forward for merchants who were burned by inferior products that rarely worked--and drew substantial interest from businesses that wanted to keep their lights on after dark. In the ensuing years, Coleman expanded its product line well beyond lanterns. The company's current catalog is thick with products that make spending time outdoors a pleasure. There are coolers that keep food and drinks cold for days on end, comfortable airbeds that won't deflate during the night, a complete line of LED lights that last for years, powerful portable grills that cook with an authentic open-grill flame, and much, much more. Coleman has truly fashioned much of our outdoor camping experience, and expects to do so for generations to come.

An excellent tent for the price.
Easy for one person to put up, but because of the height of the tent, the rain fly is a bit difficult to get in place. Also, the eight rain fly tie down lines tend to get tangled up. I have found that unless there are extremely high wind conditions, you really don't need them, so I just coiled them up and secured them with wire ties.
It has withstood one very heavy rainfall with no noticeable leakage. More than I can say for any other tent I have used.
Ventilation is great. Plenty of screened panels that can be opened. The "hinged" door is nice too. The screened room is a real plus, but it would have been even more so had they extended the tent floor to cover it too.
It is difficult to get it rolled up enough to get it back in the carrying case, but that is true of every tent I have ever owned.
Very happy with it thus far.

| My son purchased this tent for him and his girlfriend to go camping. They had no trouble putting it up and were very pleased with it. Perfect for two twin sized air mattresses with room to spare. Looking forward to using it again this summer. |
Excellent Investment

GET A FEW CANS OF CAMP DRY. This tent leaked fairly bad the first time we used it at Woolly Hollow state park in Arkansas. I think the rain fly diverts water directly onto the back side windows and on the seam where the door hinges and ours leaked pretty bad at the point where the mesh meets the bottom part of the window. Those nights it rained a good bit and we "fixed" the leak by detaching the rain fly on the back poles and tying it to the guy lines then to a tree, so the water would run off the very back of the tent more, instead of dripping right at key seams, this seemed to fix the problem. We have since put 3 coatings of camp dry and used a couple of tubes of coleman seam sealer and this should be a great tent from now own. (guaranteed not to leak......after 3 coatings of camp dry) should be there slogan.
On a positive note, I haven't had a tent from Coleman that hasn't leaked yet, but learn from me, always seal them with camp dry or similar product and seam sealer BEFORE you need to, and you will have a great experience and have a tent that will last for years to come. |
