Coleman Tents – touring, lightweight and family tents
The exponent lightweight ranges of tents use superb lightweight technology such as alloy poles.
Coleman have been manufacturing camping equipment since 1908, their selection of tents and outdoor accessories is second to none. All of the products within their ranges have been tried and tested in some of the most brutal conditions known to campers. There are a few ranges of Coleman tents that include:
Coleman Family Tents – the family tents are mostly ideal for summer camping in European weather conditions. The original best seller was the Weathermaster which took a huge step forward when it was introduced to the market by featuring the sewn in groundsheet. Many of the Coleman tents now seem to be weekender tents, these are ideal for those just wanting to get away for the weekend.

Coleman Touring Tents – The Bedrock and Rock Springs are the most popular touring tents, these have been designed to perform on multi use holidays. They pack down into smaller sizes and both are easy to erect making them perfect for touring.
Coleman Lightweight Tents – the lightweight tents supplied by Coleman such as the Phad and Avior have become best sellers across the globe, with expeditionary groups benefitting from their lightweight low profile structures.
For campers who enjoy several short breaks or like to up sticks and move locations during longer breaks, the Bedrock is the perfect 2 person solution, due to its quick erect design and practical layout, it makes it very simple to put up in a hurry. They feature plenty of storage space and sturdy construction with a compact pack size that is ideal for touring.
PVC windows allow for increased visibility and enhanced lighting in the tent necessary when the aim of a camping trip is to get back to the outdoors! There is a little storage space for a couple rucksacks but as the tent is designed for those who are constantly on the move, storage is not excessive, this reduces weight and reduces the pack size.
Coleman are best-known for their family tents but they also make a range of low-priced backpacking tents that prove you don’t need to spend a fortune to be able to enjoy camping. The Coleman Bedrock 2 is a wedge-shaped tent that requires just one pole.
The best selling lightweight tent from Coleman
It is pitched inner-first with the single pole sliding through a short sleeve around the top of the inner. The pole ends are located onto plugs at the base and clips are then used to link the rest of the inner to the pole. The flysheet is draped over the top with a set of steel pegs stabilizing the structure. The guy lines are required for tension and hold it away from the inner and also to add a little more stability. The main bonus of the tent is the twin porches and entrances that extend down each side of the wedge. The inner and outer doors zip open and can be rolled upwards, where they are held in place with toggles. Plenty of ventilation for 2 people and a comfortable night’s sleep for on the go campers. One final point to mention is that this lightweight, spacious yet compact tent is at an excellent price, reduced down from £60 to £39.99.
