Side by Side Comparison of: Coleman vs Etekcity

This is a great sleeping bag for not too cold weather. I don't think I would want to sleep in it below 40 degrees. It's light, rolls up into a compact roll and was quite comfortable to sleep in. Very pleased

Went camping last weekend and slept through temperatures ranging from 65-25F. I know this isn't meant for temperatures below 30, so I just wore more clothes to bed. I never got too hot and it kept me warm enough throughout the night. Its also comfortable and light weight. I didn't even attempt to put it back in the bag because the straps work just fine at keeping it rolled up.

Wow! Rated only for ten degrees warmer than the last bag I destroyed (caught a lightweight throw in the zipper, a no-no) volumetrically, this bag is virtually half the size and weight of the 20-degree job, and is fabulous value for a sleeping bag. Don't get me wrong, I love a good bag as much as the next guy, but $200 plus for a bag is a bit steep for a simple guy like me, and I like good value. This is it. If you're camping out of the trunk of a car or SUV, this bag's for you. On the other hand, if you're camping out of some RV, well, you're not really camping, anyway. If you're hiking the Appalachian trail, or some such, you might want to shell out the extra $200 for that North Face, after all...But if you're anything like me (highly unlikely, and consider yourself fortunate) you like good value, or as they say in slimy financial-circles: 'ROI'. Oh, and if 'The Little Woman' happens to throw you out on your ear, you'll love the comfort this bag provides, and as long as your winters aren't in North Dakota, hey, you'll be 'snug as a bug' in this...

I just took this sleeping bag up to science camp with my 5th graders and not only did this keep me warm in a chilly cabin, it was also thin enough to not overheat. It's a great sleeping bag and is of really great quality. The interior isn't really flannel but it is very soft and very comfortable to sleep in and the fabric does not stick to your skin if you get warm at night. The easy roll is just an added bonus.

COMFY!! My 6 & 7 year old boys looked forward to sleeping in these! They absolutely loved them. I used two as sheets for my air mattress, best sleep ever. I love the inside material of these sleeping bags.

I'll start off by saying that i didn't buy this for actual camping. I bought it so that I could wait in line overnight for tickets to Saturday Night Live (anyone who lives in NY knows that this is really the only way to get tix unless you know someone). I needed something that would keep me warm towards the end of the fall while also keeping me comfortable sleeping outside on the concrete sidewalk. This was great for that. The temperature was easily in the low thirties that night, and I wasn't cold at all. Most people on line around us were jealous of our warm sleeping bags while they sat shivering. Overall, I think this is a great sleeping bag, and I am going to keep it in case I decide to go camping in the future.

This bag worked great for our summer camping trip. I'm small 5'2" and found it perfect and comfortable. My husband who is 5'10" was not impressed and said he needed a bigger bag. However, he likes movement when he is sleeping. Also it was warm out. If it was winter I'm assuming he would have been happier as it would have been snug and kept him warm.

Put two of these together for a late spring camping trip for my husband and I. Didn't even feel the chill! It was maybe low/mid 30s that night here in New England. The only thing that was cold was our heads poking out.

I loved it! went on a camping trip it was about 30 degrees at night. I was totally warm. upper body. I would wear double socks or a fleece blanket for your feet. My feet were cold. No snags no rips. Honestly I would buy a compression bag or straps. you will need to expand the bag that comes with it.

Decided to write a review because I rely so much on them when buying stuff. First let me say - I don't camp, and I'd never had a sleeping bag before, so it's not like I can compare to anything else. Having said that, I must say that this one is perfect for what I need - I got it so I could sleep on a sidewalk in NYC (in the standby line for SNL tickets), and every time it keeps me completely warm, and as comfortable as I could possibly be. I could not put it back in the bag, but I have it inside a suitcase where I put whatever else I need to bring with me.

I bought these for my grandsons. They are as thick and warm as advertised. The interior bedding is soft and also made of a material that is warm when put against the skin. I wish the bags they fit in were a little bigger. They are a bit difficult to roll back up and I wasn't able to get them back into their bags they came with. Yet, the bags themselves are great and the price is worth it.

Used this sleeping bag in an open tent with overnight temperatures in the low 40s (F). I am a person who is always cold and never goes anywhere without a sweater-- but this sleeping bag kept me perfectly warm and comfortable all night. My only complaint is that getting it back into the included bag is practically impossible. But I'll deal with that, given it keeps my toes (and the rest of me) warm and toasty.

Not sure why these are getting such bad reviews. We bought two of these for our camping trip to Tahoe and they were a lifesaver. Ended up being super hot during the day and freezing cold at night. These were perfect. We haven't washed ours yet - if you read the tag it says to only wash if HEAVILY soiled. We shook ours out, and hung on the line to freshen. Loved the bags were easy to get them back into .

I bought two coleman sleeping bags and they kept us warm in 35 degree weather. The perk to having two was we could zip them together to create one large 2 person sleeping bag!!Putting them back in the storage bag when done using them was quite easy, and it only took 1 person about 2 minutes to do.I would highly recommend Coleman brand sleeping bags.

I bought two of these for camping out in the yard with the grandkids and weekend trips in the fall to the island and some lighthouse scenery. Have only used them in the back yard. They are warm and have a nice thickness. Easy to roll back up and get into their bags. I will update when we check them out thru the fall. I'm comfortable recommending them now as far as summer and early fall.

I live in a college dorm and I sleep in this sleeping bag everyday instead of using comforters and sheets. It is the comfiest, warmest thing ever! My feet are often cold at night but this makes my feet so warm. I recommend using a sleeping bag liner so you can wash the liner instead of trying to wash the whole sleeping bag. The zipper is very fast and doesn't get stuck. The bad thing about this is that it makes loud noises when I move, which annoys my roommate very much. Also, I cannot stretch my limbs very much since it's kind of small. Overall, this is a great and high quality sleeping bag. I have slept in it everyday and I've had no problems. It is very soft.

I bought this for my son to take to camp. They actually sleep in cabins but have the option of bringing sheets and blankets or a sleeping bag. Opting for easier since my son's only 10, we chose sleeping bag. We let someone borrow the other one he took last year and we haven't gotten it back so I was looking for something quick and affordable. This is quite the little bag. He tried it out in the house and said that it was great in the AC. It kept him warm but he wasn't burning up. He also camped out in the yard with it for just in case the AC goes out in the cabin and he said it was great. He was warm but he slept fine, he just slept on top of it instead of zipped up in it. He said the other bag we had made him sweat and stick to it if he did that and he said this one didn't. It's a great fit and Coleman is the best!

Great price for a great tent & got it next day w/$4.99 shipping made me camp-ready fir $70 by the following weekend. Bought seam-sealer as well, just in case, but as-is did a great job keeping out the wet & bugs in NW Missouri during 2017 solar eclipse weekend (light rain morning & afternoon 2/3 days).Definitely follow the recommendation to set up w/2 people. Extra set of hands during the raising part of setup avoids risk of forcing/damaging tent or possibly hurting yourself by off-balance leaning on muddy/uneven ground.When set up, pulled 4 corners taught and the front gray/tub surface beneath the door was wrinkled like maybe the base is not really square or maybe one of the extension poles is longer than the other and pulling oddly on that section of fabric from a higher angle, but tent worked beautifully regardless and I will be using it again in the near future. (Also hard to tell if ground was weird or just my tent has that quirk.)Breakdown was super easy for 1 person, even able to wipe off residual moisture and dirt/mud during fold-up & rolling. Tent & hardware tucked back in to carrying case with room to spare for odd accessories (small addit. tarp w/stakes & ties, seam-sealer bottle, and small flashlight for inside erected tent).Tons of room for 1 person in sleeping bag on twin-size air mattress, had space for all my gear and room for my 3 camping companions to sit inside w/me in event of rain (they had their own tents). Could stand but had to bend head so inside clearance probably 4'6"-5' high at center.Plenty of room for 2people to sleep plus gear. 3people sleeping plus gear would be pretty tight functionally. Would not recommend 4people unless gear kept in vehicle, separate tent, or you're all light campers and don't mind snuggling up together.The included, small exterior ground-tarp ("welcome mat") is basically useless for that purpose, better to place it in the corner nearest the door and remove footwear outside, then place muddy shoes atop mat so they can dry inside tent.At the end of the day, great product, have already recommended it via Amazon to friends & family.Coleman brand might incorporate a soft-sided 4-walled w/lid water resistant "shoebox" in right front corner of tent (nearest corner to door as you enter w/o fulling unzipping door). Have 2 access zippers, one on the outside (similar to power-plug access and more like upside-down window flap) above gray-bathtub base for placing shoes inside from exterior, one on inside lid for dry-air ventilation w/o contaminating majority area of tent w/whatever may be on shoes. Just a suggestion.

I really didn't expect much for a tent this inexpensive. Wow was I surprised! I bought it for a one-off camping trip so I didn't want to spend a lot. This tent survived the ultimate test: A New Mexico mountain monsoon storm with 40 mph winds and driving rain. The tent did not leak one drop even though I could see a literal stream flowing under it at the height of the storm which lasted about 2 hours. Since I had a lot of time to gaze up into it and look at every detail while waiting out the storm, I was quite impressed by the way it was designed with reinforcement at tension points and how well sewn it was. Also, the way it's designed with a mesh top and rain fly over that means condensation was not a problem.It says it's a 4 person tent…uh, not really. My queen size air mattress took up nearly the whole tent. Maybe 4 small children…It's very easy to set up and take down and Coleman sewed the directions into the carrying bag so they will never be lost.Super impressed with this high quality tent at a fantastic price.

This thing is gigantic!! Absolutely easy to put up and is big enough to fit 2 adults and a 100 pound dog and still have room. The description says it has a 4'11 center height but I stand at 5'3 and have an inch when standing flat foot inside. Amazing tent, no issues, no regrets of buyin this tent. You know when you're laying in bed thinking about life and how cozy your bedroom feels??? Well this tent feels like you're own personal bedroom but in the woods. It's perfect.

Coleman is well-known for the quality of its products. This didn't disappoint. I bought this for Burning Man, which was my mistake. I thought the top of the tent was sealed, but it's not - there is a portion of the top of the dome that is mesh, which is nice if you want ventilation and to have a view of the sky. There's also a rain fly to put over the top to cover the mesh in case it does rain. However, if you're going to the desert where there's sandstorms or similar weather, it's not the best suited as sand/dirt easily flies around the rain cover to get into the tent. This was no fault of Coleman's though - just my ignorance and I hope it helps some of you better prepare by determining if this is the right tent model for your adventures. Good for outdoors, good for the rain, not so good for sandstorms. Aside from that, the tent was sturdy and I was able to put it together by myself in about 10-15 minutes. There are side pockets on the inside, and there's placement to hang a lantern from the center on the inside for light at night. The description says its a 4-person tent, and it probably could fit four "average" sized people tightly together without luggage, but it's good sizing for a couple with luggage, and maybe a third depending on how tall/big you all are. For me by myself, it was great having the extra room to have my belongings out. I would highly recommend!

Great tent! We took this to the coast the first weekend of owning it and found out as we arrived that we would be battling 30+ mph winds! When I had bought this tent I had seen in the promo video that it would withstand 30 mph winds and our trip really put that to the test, and it proved it true! The tents poles have great flexibility and bent and molded to the wind instead of snapping. we stayed warm and protected in our spacious tent. My fiance and I brought a queen size mattress pad that fit with more than enough room to spare for out luggage. There are 2 mesh pockets on each end of the tent where we were able to keep small valuables and a ring at the top of the tent where I was able to hang a lantern. We love this tent!Only negative...although this tent withstood 30mph winds, the poles bent in, which if happened during the night the tent would be on our faces. We had to include extra tie downs and steaks. So if you are going to buy this tent, just bring or buy extra steaks and tie downs...especially if you are going to be in more extreme weather. Once we had the tent braced a little better it was invincible to the winds!

Great tent. I set it up in my backyard, to give it a trial run (and seam seal) before taking it out camping. There are pros and cons...Pros:Carry bag - the tent comes neatly packed in a carry bag, with tent, poles, rain fly, ground stakes, door mat, and instructions.Setup - Easy. Set up by myself, with rain fly, in under 15 minutes. Didn't have to look at the directions. Only suggestion would be to put the word "front" somewhere on the rain fly to indicate which way it goes. However, a quick glance at the packaging will tell you.Materials - the tent material seems to be of good quality, and should hold up well when taken care of. The zippers are not heavy duty, but i see no issues with them. The floor is heavy duty tarp material.Screens - the tent has large screen panels on the "ceiling", which makes for a great view when the rain fly is not on. There is an additional window, and screen on the door for extra viewing and airflow.Floor Vent - there is a vent near the rear of the tent, which allows for additional airflow.Cord access - there is a small zippered panel in the front corner, that let's you run an extension cord into the tent.Other "Pros":I got the Navy/Grey tent, and the colors are cool. Got some compliments from the neighbors on it. I like that the rain fly comes with the guy lines already attached. The interior gear pockets are fine, good for holding your phone. Wouldn't stuff them with anything heavy. There is a little "ring" at the center of the ceiling, to hang a small light. While you could technically fit 2 queen air mattresses, I would not. It leaves no floor space for gear. I will put in one mattress, and leave the other half of the tent for my kids Pack n' Play, and gear. It will fit the 3 of us comfortably. However, unless you intend to get cozy, I wouldn't advise this for 4 adults (but it could be done).Cons:Stakes - the stakes are just ok...they are the generic skinny steel ones. I would recommend spending an extra $10 bucks and buy some good ones.Footprint - the tent doesn't come with a footprint, though I imagine this helps keep the cost so low. Not a big deal, I use a tarp anyways.Door Screen - the upper half of the door can be unzipped to reveal the screen window. I really would have liked if the entire door could be screen, not just the top half.I also purchased some Coleman Seam Sealer, and sealed all the seams inside the tent, and the rain fly. Some of the seams are taped, but it's just good practice to spend the time to do this, no matter what brand/cost/etc tent you have. It saves headache down the road.Overall, I'm very pleased with the tent, and the cost. It will work well for short camping trips with a small family, couple, or individual.

This sleeping bag seems well made, comes with a nice stuff sack, and the two little "toggles" that help keep the bag aligned while you roll it up are a nice feature. It is comfortable and reasonably warm (though we've only used it camping in summer so far in the Pacific Northwest, with lows in the mid-40's. The reason I didn't give it five starts is that there is an annoying string sewn into the bottom of the bag (which you are supposed to wrap around the bag when it is rolled up to hold its shape), but it just got in the way and was a trip hazard as you are trying to get out of a tent. Not really needed, either, since to fit into the cover you have to compress and roll the bag much tighter than the strings would allow for. Anyway, cut that off, and the bag is fine.

Nice old school sleeping bag shape with new school warmth, & even fuzzy inside. It does take up much more room that a stuff sack type, but it was great for camp. My daughter stayed cozy on the Northern California coast, unlike the year before in a different bag.

These are pretty comfortable and held up in the wash quite well. The only downside was the length. I am 5"7 and I felt like this bag wasn't tall enough for me. Also, the material inside is a bit scratchy; however, I am hoping it will improve with time. Overall, a decent purchase at an inexpensive price.

My boyfriend and I purchased two of these for a trip to the Berkshires this week. The bags are soft, easily re-rolled into their bags, and easily connect to create one big sleeping bag! I have a particular issue with "microfiber" ish linings or fabrics that catch on your skin, but wearing socks while I slept completely remedied this issue. We slept comfortably in weather that ranged from 65-45 during the night. If kept me warm during the colder evening (40's) and I get cold easily! I highly recommend this bag for cool weather!

Only complaint was that in description it told me I was getting a 6'4" sleeping bag and I ended up getting a 5'11" one. Unfortunately wasn't going to flget it replaced in time for a canoe trip so sucked it up and used it. Now as a product it was great. I stayed very warm even though the temp dropped down to the 40s. Also there was a thunderstorm and water got in the tent, even though the outside of the sleeping bag got wet, the inside where I was stayed completely dry which is important. Great quality, great look, great buy.

Bought it for my son for his school outing. No complaints about the sleeping bag, but fitting it back in the case is a nightmare. It does come with nylon cords to tie it closed though. Thank goodness since there is no way that we are getting it back in the case.

Bought this for my son's winter retreat. He found it very comfortable. He was in a heated cabin so I can't say how it would be in cold weather but it is well made. The only reason I gave 4 stars is I wish the bag that it came in was just a little bit bigger. We ended up not using it because we just couldn't get it back in the bag.

Had this overnighted to my daughter at camp because she forgot to pack hers. It works great and is warm.

Why four stars?

I'm glad you asked! Because once you take it out of the bag, it will take you over 20 minutes to get it back in. I have 5 other sleeping bags from various places and various types. I can roll them all up like a champ and get them in a bag in under 5 minutes no issue - this one...even with a zipper that unzips so you can get it back in - took me and my sister 20 minutes to cram it all in horrifically. And there is NO WAY you are getting that zipper closed like it came.

It works for the price. It's a good sleeping bag really good zipper. I have sleeping bags that are quite a bit more money. We bought this for a grandchild and I have a hard time understanding the difference in the price between our expensive sleeping bags and this Coleman. , ours are a little bit colder rated and a little bit lighter .But there's a lot of money difference.

To all of the naysayers who thought it couldn't be done. IN YOUR FACE! I managed to get the sleeping bag back into the zipped up stuff sack. Any one else up to the challenge? Decent product BTW.

This is a great sleeping bag if you are planning on parking where you are camping and are not pressed for space. It is a rather large sleeping bag but it does keep you very warm. The first night I had it the temperature went down to 22 and I was more then comfortable in it. The only problem I have with it is that it is short. I know it was designed like that so it only comes up to you shoulders but, I am not a very tall guy I am only 5'7" and had to completely bend my knees to pull it over my head when it got cold. Because I am able to sleep in that position it was ok with me but for a lot of other guys who are taller them me it might be a real problem. It is definitely a great sleeping bag for people who only plan to go camping a couple of times a year and don't want to invest in a more expensive bag. I feel that this is extremely reasonably priced and it is a great value for your money. Just don't expect to be able to do any kind of backpacking with it because I don't even think it would be able to fit into a backpack.

I've only used this once since purchasing but am pleased with the product. Here's a quick rundown of my thoughts:Pros:- Definitely keeps you warm***- Very soft. It's seriously comfortable.- The zipper really doesn't get snagged. Again, I've only used it once since purchasing but I kept zipping and unzipping the bag every day/night and it just would not get snagged!Cons:- ***The bag was almost too warm. I used it in 60-65º nights and I was pretty much right on the border between too warm and comfortable. I personally cannot sleep if my body is too warm and this sleeping bag was pushing it. I woke up a few times in the middle of the night, each night, and had to unzip the bag a little to let some cold air get in, so I could get comfortable and fall back asleep.Issues (To clarify: these are NOT cons of the products. Cons are when the product has some sort of manufacture/physical/etc. issue ITSELF. These are MY personal issues I had with the bag):- I move a lot when I sleep. And I mean a lot. It takes a while for me to find a position where my mind will finally tell me, "okay you're good, let's sleep". This was a problem for me when I had this bag zipped up. I was fighting with the bag every night. If you move a lot, I highly recommend you either buy two of these and zip them together, or just use this to lay on and get another blanket to use on top. OR just don't get it at all and get something bigger.- The material is soft but your skin can get caught on it. My hands and feet are kind of rough. The skin around my nails are constantly peeling and the bottoms of my feet aren't the smoothest. Both areas were constantly getting "snagged" on the material. It's more annoying than anything but it takes away from the comfort. Honestly, that can happen with anything of similar material though. I just thought it was worth mentioning.Overall, I have to give it 4 out of 5 stars. It is a nice bag and I would definitely recommend it.

For the money, you can't beat this sleeping bag! I bought 2 for my Grandchildren when they sleep over and they love it. Soft, nicely padded and definitely warm enough in the house. I do agree with other reviewers about the bag that it arrives in, I couldn't get it back in once I took it out. It is a small issue though and happy I made the purchase.

Overall, a reasonable sleeping bag. I will say that I got a little too warm sleeping in this indoors. I also am not overly fond of the material used for the lining of this sleeping bag. As others have stated in their reviews, it tends to "catch" on your skin... This wasn't a huge drawback for me, as I was fully clothed & wearing socks, but I could definitely see how it would get irritating.

The kids love sleeping in them, and they seem to be well built, but...1. You have to roll it up, rather than use a stuff sack.2. It uses those stupid cords to tie it up rather than elastic straps.3. The carry bag should be just a touch bigger so that it does not take 2 people to get it back in each time.

Perfect for intended use. Bought for my 8 year old daughter for scout camping and family camping. THis is something that she can keep for a whilw a grow into (so I do not have to keep buying new themed sleeping bags) Soft and warm enought for 50 degree weather. The fabric inside is like most sleeping bags not as soft as your favorite blankee but it will do)

I purchased 2 of these sleeping bags for my camping trip. The temperature at night dropped to 43 degrees fahrenheit. I crawled in my bag and was warm the whole night. exccept from my shoulders to my head. The description says, 33 inches (Width) X 75 inches (Height). I am 5'9" (69 inches) and weight 210lbs. I fit perfectly into the bag but could not cover my whole body length wise. It is a great investment and I plan on using them for later camping trip. I had to bend my legs and arch my back a little just to be cover from head to toe, which I did not mind.*Warning* If you are taller the 5'9" (69 inches) DO NOT BUY!Quality: 9/10 - did not have any problem with the zipper, material, or packaging. The sleeping bag is not true to size!Price: 9/10 - I have found cheaper bags at different web sitesSelection: 8/10 - they do have 2 colors available, Green and Blue (Slightly different prices)

Bought this for our camping trip. It says it is a 4 person tent but honestly, I don't see how 4 people would comfortably fit in here. It was just my husband and me for this tent and we put a queen six , 16.6-inch high air mattress inside and barely had enough room for our things. I wanted to leave the rain flap off to be able to see the stars through the netting at the top. Hubby suggested otherwise and I am glad he did. It rained all night, unexpectedly. Although a video promoting how waterproof this tent was was a deciding factor for purchase, it lied. We woke up to several puddles of water on the floor of the tent. Good thing the air mattress was elevated. My clothing bag left on the floor of the tent got wet, as did our socks and shoes. We even laid a tarp down to put the tent on before we set it up. That is my only complaint about this product and why I gave it 4 stars.

Setting up: I first set the tent up in my living room by myself and it was pretty easy to do so. A second person definitely helps so they can hold up the polls in the middle of the tent while you are connecting them to the tent. I first used it this past weekend for two nights. The stakes that come with this are not very good at all. They are small and have a flat bottom. We had pretty hard ground and had a stake bend while putting it in. We were able to bend it back, but it is worth buying different stakes.Rain: It ended up raining on Sunday morning and the tent held up very well even with some of our things pushing against the outside of the tent. There was no water or dampness inside the tent.Size: This says 4 person tent, but it is usual to half this amount for the true size. For two people, this was adequate. We had a double tall queen air mattress which fit, but since it was double tall, it pushed against the outer tent a little bit. With the air mattress inside, there was still room for our bags, snacks, and a small side table as well as room to change. Although, unless you are 5' tall or less, standing up straight in the tent will not happen.Packing up: We had to pack the tent while it was wet and still slightly drizzling, but it is quick and easy. The worst part is getting the air out so you can roll it up, but that comes with any tent.Accessories: The tent has a small ring (not hook) at the top to hang a lantern or other lights. We brought a light meant for under a cupboard and it lit the whole thing up. There are three netted pockets on the sides of the tent to put any loose items in which was very nice. The windows can be opened all the way even in rain as long as the rain isn't coming in sideways. There is a flap on the back that can be staked out and helps with air flow in the tent. The rain cover acts as an illuminator as well. A dim light could even work well enough to light up the whole tent.Overall, I would recommend this tent for anyone who is looking for something small to use and of high quality.

Nice tent. Roomy and easy to set up. The green makes it bright inside. Nice for the money, but the money is not much so take that into consideration. The poles are much more fragile than the other four tents I own (one family camping, three backpacking). Be very cautious when setting it up. Once up, it is a very nice, sturdy tent. The extra square of material is a door mat (at least that is what we think it is since it is not shown on the box or on the directions), which can be staked down.

only used it once so far! set it up in about 10 mins at 3am, slept in it, got up did our thing. it does not fit the Intex Comfort plush elevated dura airbed Queen size! well it will if you blow it up inside the tent, and there will be very limited room for anything else to go in the tent. Id recommend 3 ppl comfortably with their bags, but not many more than that. but for what a tent is used for this one is awesome! easy to put up! does what its supposed to. if you put the rain fly on the right way, it does keep rain out! - 4 stars just because it barely fits a queen size mattress in it

Got this for a Cub Scout Campout as we don't camp often and yet wanted something the right size, reasonably priced and good for spring/summer camping.With a trial run for working out the kinks, (the biggest being the rain fly) the second and subsequent setups took about 15 minutes each and easily done solo.While I'm not sure how well the open mesh sides covered by the rain fly would hold up in a big storm, it help up with a drizzle. We stayed dry and comfy if a bit warm for a WI summer night. Both of us were sleeping on top of our sleeping bags by morning.Not sure of long term durability and certainly not a backpack tent. I'd recommend buying a ground tarp and a set of good stakes just to make life easier for yourself.Overall a good basic tent that can easily sleep an adult and two kids with wiggle room and space for gear.

I received the tent a couple of days ago. I decided to setup the tent in the yard before we take it camping. Everything went together perfectly. The rain fly pole was a perfect fit, and the poles worked well. The Tent is very large inside, and it took me 10 minutes by myself to setup. The tent comes with a shoe pad, with two holes so that you can stake it to the ground outside the tent for your wet shoes. My dog likes the size, and was happy to climb right in. The rain fly seams are sealed, but I can see you might want to buy some rain seal gel for the bottom of the tent to just make sure. I will send a update after we come back.

Does the job, but it's not great for cold weather and I don't really like the way you have to roll it up to pack it back in the bag. I wish it was "stuff it in the bag" kind. The cord on my carrying pouch snapped after the 2nd time it was used, making it even more of a chore to pack this up.It's also not very small/compact when it's packed up in the carrying pouch so it takes up a lot of space.

I'm 5'11" male and it says it's for 5'11" and my shoulders where sticking out of this thing. And I could roll in this thing too tight. More for a child or a woman. We zipped two together and it helped with my wife but it put us on top of each other good for her bad for me.

Love the sleeping bag well made, a little problem with the zipper but not enough to cry about considering the price was at the sweet spot for a decent quality sleeping bad.

WARNING!!! THIS IS NOT THE SLEEPING BAG IN THE DESCRIPTION! This is the Coleman palmetto, the big and tall bag that fits up to 6ft 4in is a different bag. That being said, it fits up to 5ft 11in but I am 6ft 2in and it still fits comfortably and keeps you plenty warm so no need to return.

These came to me damaged in shipping so I sent them back. However I probably would have sent them back anyway since I didn't really like the fabric on the inside and they weren't quite long enough. Also from how thin they felt I doubt they would have actually been comfortable down to their rated temperature.

I bought this to take for a weekend camp that was indoors. It is a nice bag, but I do agree with the others who mentioned that it is easily snagged on the inside. It is a nice weight and is a good bag; however, I have serious issues with packing it up again once you take it out of the bag. Three of us tried to roll the bag up tight enough to get it back into the bag and never could get it tight enough to use the cords to hold it together and trying to squeeze the sleeping bag into the carrying bag is next to impossible! It is just too, too small for this bag. A friend of mine told me she got one of these for her son and that once it was washed, it would be easier to get it into the carry bag, so I decided to wash mine. That was a mistake! I washed it alone on the delicate cycle and then put it in the dryer on the low heat setting. I had to dry it a couple of cycles, but when I took the bag out of the dryer, I noticed several places where the it was ripped or melted and the stuffing is coming out. It shouldn't do that when it is done on the delicate cycle and the low heat setting. I feel as though I wasted my money since after using it for only 2 nights, it is torn.

Inside lining is not a smooth material so when you go to roll over, you get somewhat stuck. Otherwise not bad.

Bought this sleeping bag for my girlfriend. She's not a warm sleeper, but this bag is supposed to be good for as low as 20 degrees F. It did not get below freezing and she was very cold. This bag is nice for the summer (maybe), but be forewarned that if you sleep cold, you will want a better sleeping bag. Now we just use it for an extra blanket around the house.

Comfortable enough when it's cold, But I can't get it rolled up and the cord around it no matter how tightly I try to roll it, the cord won't reach. Very annoying.

Great sleeping bag with one really annoying flaw...the strings that you use to secure it when rolled are too short. It's like wrestling a bear to get them hooked together, my 6 year old son will never be able to do it & frankly, neither can his parents. Not to mention getting it back into its bag it's a nightmare. So basically I need to find something else to secure it, bought one years ago in different color for my older son & we don't have this same problem.

Sleeping bag came with three inch section of seam unsewed. Bought it with a delusion of Coleman quality, sewed the seam myself with newly opened eyes and newfound disgust of cheap Chinese crap disguised as American made quality. Eff you coleman

The material inside the sleeping bag is not soft and gets caught on rough skin. This would be a good sleeping bag is they would have used a cotton lining.

Only used for 1 night so far. It does have a weird fabric feel to it but it's still better than the ground or dirt. Love the color since there aren't many fashionable adult sleeping bags. Will continue to use till I need a new one or if one of my kiddos decide they want it.

There is nothing wrong with the bag it is not what I ordered. I ordered a kids size bag for my 5 year old grandson but received an adult sized one. Due to this error I can not give it any higher of a rating. I still need a child sleeping bag.

So when I initially received this sleeping bag I thought the stuff sack was cool because it had a zipper to further compress the sleeping bag. After just unzipping and trying to re-zip the "cool" feature the stitches on the seam started ripping, and then completely ripped upon full completion of zipping. "Haha what a joke" I chuckled to myself. The bag was cozy for my early spring camping though. Just hate spending more on a good stuff sack then I did for the actual sleeping bag. I think with a good compression stuff sack though, this bag can get pretty compressed. Don't let the cheaply made stuff sack deter you from buying this, but it is worth keeping the extra cost for a good sack in mind.

Color is not even close to what is advertised. It is more of a navy blue with a much darker grey liner than pictured. Very disappointed, was hoping for a slightly more unique color than the basic reds, greens, and navy's that every child at camp will have. Too late to get anything else.It is soft and will work well keeping my child warm at camp without overheating her, still not what I wanted though.

I should have read the reviews more thoroughly because it sees there are several comments about the funky liner in this sleeping bag. It's some kind of soft microfiber that has thousands of tiny loops that will snag on every callous and piece of dead skin on the palms of your hands, soles of your feet and around your fingers, toes and knuckles. It's a very strange sensation almost like static electricity running over your hands and feet. Luckily I bought this for my young son. He has no complaints. And it is inexpensive. So, three stars.

This is a nice tent. Easy to set up (just a few minutes) and feels like reasonable quality. My only beef, and the reason I'm returning it is the windows don't have zipper closures do forget 3 season camping.

We have a queen air mattress and there's two of us- this tent fits that and our back packs and that is it- no way is this a 4- adult tent- maybe 4 very small adults with no gear. decent tent but smaller than we wanted .

Ordered this as a tent to have on hand in case our family does some light (very light) camping. Upon taking the tent out for a dry run, and even before assembling it, we noticed rips in the tent, including at the bottom near where the poles end. We realize that if we put the tent up, the tension risks tearing the rip even more. At the same time, we have an overnight camp out scheduled soon and I don't know if amazon can take care of replacing it fast enough. Not a happy (light) camper.

I like it for the usual normal usage and ease and speed of setup. But neither is it full proof to wind or rain. So please beware. I just avoid these two elements if I can. It's easily avoided as it's my backyard. I won't take this to camp for sure.

This is our first tent and the size is perfect for me, my husband and my german shepherd. I would also think it would be the correct size for 2 adults and a child. It has room for our full size blow-up mattress along with a dog bed and bags.It is easy to put up and seems durable for the most part. My only complaints are 1. The stakes that come with it are very cheap and break. You need the extra stake kit that comes with a rubber mallet. 2. The tops let air in on the sides so while it is waterproof, it lets in the cold air and can become very cold if it gets to the low 50's or colder. My dog got so cold she slept on top of me.

Survived 2 weeks of camping in Yellowstone just fine. It's not the biggest tent but plenty of room for 2 people. I know it says 4 and I do think that's possible but it would extremely crowded. Not a camping expert and it was easy to setup and take down. The negative would be that 2 pole sections came broken with the internal bungies severed but we improvised with duct tape and it worked just fine. Adaptable is key when camping so don't fret the small stuff.

Warm, well made, but the tricot fabric on the inside is 'tacky,' as in it sticks to my dry hands and feet....drives me nuts. I know, use (more...) lotion, but I'm going to return it on the account of the tricot fabric.

Just received the sleeping bag, it's very bulky and impossible to put it back to its bag. The zipper and fabric of the bag is weak, seems like it will break anytime. Will return and not recommended.

When i received it, it was nicely rolled, tightly in the sleeping bag bag it said it came in. It to quite a bit of effort to get it out of there as it was really tightly packed in there. When it came out finally, i was disappointed with how narrow this sleeping bag is. I am not a small woman, but i at least expected a decent sized sleeping bag. There is no way an average sized adult could slide into this comfortably. This is meant for those really skinny, and athletic types. I kept it because i needed the sleeping bag to sleep in the gym of the school for the sports team I was chaperoning. I use it opened all the way, as a blanket instead. If it weren't for the cots they gave the chaperones, my backside would have been cold through the night.Now this sleeping bag is warm, that i will give it. It does keep you plenty warm, and even too warm at points. The material on the outside is the usual plasticy material you see on sleeping bags. the inside is only slightly soft, with a plasticy feel as well. But you get what you pay for.Getting it back into the storage bag is nearly impossible. Once out it gets air inside of it, and doubles in size. If it weren't for the JROTC members at the school i was at, It would not have gotten back in there, and even then they broke open the zipper part of the storage bag just to get it in there.

Grandson Christmas Gift. The inside is awful! His PJ's stuck to the lining so he could not slide in.When I went to help my hands snagged the lining! I wish I had never bought this!

Many reviews mention the scratchy feel of the inside, this is somewhat present, but not a big deal in my opinion. Especially if you're actually camping in colder temperatures where you would be wearing clothing/socks/etc.My primary concern was that I purchased two bags to zip together and they do not zip together well at all. The zippers were EXTREMELY difficult to operate when combining the two bags and the proportions of the bags (at least as they applied to zipping the two bags together) were unbelievably off. Leaving a significant gap unzipped at the bottom-center of the bags, and one bag's zipper ending approximately 8 inches from the top of the second bag. They were so uneven that I got online to began the process of returning them within the hour.They seem like decent bags, but for my purposes I was shocked at the discrepancies in production between the two bags.

Save your money. This is a Coleman? They have slipped. The zipper is buckling all the way around and it's a cheap plastic zipper to boot. Unfortunately, my son is leaving for camp ASAP and we are stuck with it. I purchased it to replace a cheap Walmart one with a cheap zipper. If I had known the quality was going to be so poor, I would have just gotten another junk one from Walmart. I checked the label, You guessed it. Made in China. My young son says it's comfortable on the inside with soft fabric. So, that's a plus for as long as this lasts. What a waste of money. I hate thinking that someone worked for slave wages making this.

The fabric lining the inside of this sleeping bag feels really gross against your skin, it's really REALLY cheapo material, almost like some kind of gauzy disposable napkin. The picture makes the quality look much better. Also, you probably won't be able to get the pack back into its carrier with the bag's smaller zipper setting.

I bought two bags and I wish I had not. I would really, really like to return these sleeping bags and try buying something else, but Amazon would charge me $12 for return shipping, and that's just dumb.

Do not make the same mistake I made: avoid this sleeping bag!

THIS BAG IS HUGE and quite heavy AND impossible to put back in its pouch. I wish I could give a better review of how the bag suited me when I went camping but unfortunately I didn't go anywhere with this sack because it is a monstrosity. The quality seems fine, so buy this sack to keep around the house for when company comes over or if you exclusively DRIVE up to your campsite and have space in the back. Otherwise, save your money and buy a proper sleeping bag with a stuff sack and a removable liner. What a waste of money and space.

I should have got a army one or a big & tall its not long enough and not very durable my 12 year old who I gave it to has half destroyed it and the zipper gets stuck if you don't do it slowly. Also it needs a proper bag like north face where you put it in bag then there are straps to compress it.

Im 5'11, and the sleeping bag was too short for me.
This is not a 20 degree sleeping bag.
I would suggest this bag for women because, but not all.
short, and not so broad shoulders.
not for winter, more like a colder summer.
i don't consider this a cheap made bag. i like the quality.
like most items, don't force the zipper. if it grabs the material back off and re-zip.

I brought this for my son's class trip. We had opened it to try it for size. It's big enough & comfortable.
When we try to fold it & put it back to the bag, we tried numerous times & still unsuccessful.
Then had my husband try, still unsuccessful. There is no way I can let him take it on the trip as it was bulky & impossible to fit back to bag. I had no choice but to order another thinner bag. This is now just sitting in my closet. I guess if we have a sleep over or something. Should of trust the reviews that it was hard to fold & put back to bag.

Buy cheap, get cheap. Don't waste your money. The fabric snags, catches, and grabs every possible thing that gets near it. Clothes, skin, gear. Disappointed.

The problem with this sleeping bag is the inner lining. Rough and uncomfortable. Had to return it.

Purchased two of these for my boys. As others have mentioned if you have rough skin or nails in any way it will catch on the fabric. Both my boys complained about it.

It's a warm sleeping bag, but the zipper started to rip away after only two weeks of use. Had to carefully sew back on about a foot and a half of damaged zipper. I was stuck with it for an entire Naval deployment and it worked, but I wouldn't purchase it again knowing it falls apart easily.

The zipped bags that hold these were busting at the seems on arrival we didn't even dare open them. Had they come with an alternate method for storing and holding the bag in a roll we would have felt differently but with the bag being the only way to hold and store them they should have invested a little more in the quality of the bag and just maintained a higher price point.

Here are the reasons why I gave it 2 when it could've been 5 easily. Please look at the con in caps. It will save you money.Pros:* It's soft. Like 1000 bunnies cuddling next to you.* It's warm. I use it as an indoor blanket and always felt nice and cozy inside it.* It's big if you are a 5'6" half-asian guy like me. There is extra room to roam around when you are sleepingCons:* SOFT TRICOT LINER. Needed this to be in caps to grab your attention. If you never felt this fabric before it's like if a cloth and sand paper had a baby you would get this fabric. It's grabs onto your skin and feels very uncomfortable. The day after it arrived I ended up ordering another sleeping bag. Look for a cotton-flannel liner. You won't regret it.* Rolling it up and placing it in the bag they provide is like a sumo going to a theater and trying to squeeze into the seats. After many attempts he becomes successful and gets in but it's a really tight fit. Trying to get him out of it after is another challenge. This pretty much sums up how difficult it is to put it back.To sum it up. Don't get the soft tricot liner. Get cotton-flannel liner instead.

This tent doesn't have any covers for the screen windows so it's pretty much useless in the area we live because it gets cool at night and without window covers there is no way to keep heat in and cold air out.

Takes about 10 mins to set up. I prefer the instant set up and it's cold on the inside. Doesn't have a good heater insulation.

I assemble the tent following the instructions step by step, bury the stakes, secured it... I've had a few tents, and thought that Coleman's were the best. However i had a little rain outside while i was sleeping and woke up completely wet, my backpack was waterproof, but my sleeping bag was not... so y'all get the idea... water was entering the tent trough the stitches in every corner...

I just bought this tent for a weekend beach camping trip. It was very easy to set up. Nice size four person tent.I was a bit disappointed with the quality though. There was a tear on the inside, near a window. When I took the tent down and repacked it the bag it came in ripped. For the price I would expect better.

The good points about this tent is that it is quick and easy to set up. I really do not see how this can be called a 4 person tent. The only way 4 periople can fit in here is if you like to snuggle!! (and I am only 5ft 2) It is great as long as it does not rain. After putting this tent up and looking at the construction of the floor seems, I knew this tent would leak. You could see light through the stitching of the seams. We had rain every afternoon while camping in the blue ridge mountains and as sure enough the rain was pooling in all 4 corners. I had an air mattress so I just pile everything on the mattress to stay dry. However, a new tent should not leak like this. If you go camping more than once a year, this tent really is a waste of money. I recommend spending a little more money and get a better quality of tent unless you don't mind getting wet.

Very roomie. Worked great till first storm came in. One of the poles broke. Wind wasn't that bad other tents stayed up fine. Mine was only one that had issues with the pole breaking. Ended up duct taping an extra stake to the broken pole to keep the tent up for the night and cut the camp trip early.

Not happy with this sleeping bag at all. It is so slippery that it twisted around all night. Says it's easy to put back in the bag, NOT!!! Would love to send it back.....

I guess I didn't freeze to death in 60 degree weather but other than that I hate this bag. It's crazy bulky even for car camping. The material on the inside of this bag is horrible and clings to everything; grass, twigs, hair, dry hands, beards, etc. The stuff sack is a joke. I ordered three and ripped all three stuff sacks trying to remove the huge tag. Not that it mattered given that I need a 3-ton press to get the bags back in there even under ideal conditions.

I would give this a. minus star if available the zipper was obviously broken and quality was subpar. It was returned.

busted zipper wright out of the bag

There was a tear on this bag. So unacceptable for a new product.

broken after first use... and used indoor only.

The fabric on the inside of the bag is very uncomfortably on my skin. It feels like cheap winter pajamas.

Just took this out of the washer and the seams are coming apart. Very surprised at the poor quality of this Coleman sleeping bag. I have others and never had a problem.. Too much trouble to return.

I have had this bag a couple of weeks now. I first loved it. It is good for the price but I have developed a problem with it. The inside material is rough to the touch and it makes me itch. I can not stand to be in it now. If you have rough hands and feet you will know it immediately when you get in it. The outside of the bag material is smooth and soft but not the inside. Good Luck

When I tried to open it on the camping site for the first time, the zipper stitches got ripped.

I bought this for my 10 year old son's camping trip. The product says it is rated for use between 20 and 40 degrees. The temperature only dropped to 34 -- the midpoint in its comfort rating -- but my son said he was miserably cold in it. He is usually indifferent to the cold so I am very disappointed.

Unfortunately this sleeping bag shredded after one washing. Washed it the same way we wash all our sleeping bags and have never had problems with the other ones. Unfortunately it's past its return date. Too bad.

The zipper does not work. The ties do not wrap up the sleeping bag tight enough. I roll it up and stuff it in the bag without using the ties, and that works ok. The zipper jammed immediately so we cannot use it. It is written as warm weather, but it is a little too hot in the warm weather. All in all, I am not satisfied at all with this product.

I went camping in Yellowstone in June and froze in this thing. There is no way it is acceptable for 40 degrees. I wore my street clothes, two pairs of socks, winter jacket, and slept with my head completely cocooned inside and still froze to death in this thing.

I was freezing with these bags. It was 45 degrees. The cold air was coming through the zippers. I had to fold the zippers under me which helped a bit. My hands and feet were cold. The material on the inside sucks as everything sticks to it. I'm sure these would be ok in 55-60 degree temperatures but not anything below.

The zipper is completely broken on this item and it was never used. It was a Christmas gift that we did not test. It arrived half zipped, but the zipper was split and it us unable to be re-zipped up or used as a sleeping bag. We have only just discovered this when we went to use it for the first time.

I've only used this bag once, and by no means was it roughed up or over-used, and the seams near the feet have already ripped and are unraveling... I had hoped for higher quality from a Coleman bag but I guess you get what you pay for.

Very cold and I used in late summer with sleeping bags, hoodies, extra socks. Also does not keep bugs out very well. Very misleading advertisement; the only thing good about this tent is that it sets up quick and is cheap.

UPDATE:The reason why this POS was returned was because the rod for the rainfly is WAY too long. And it's not like, "Oh that little extra is for the flex." Nah... gtfo with that. It's over a foot too long. That's why the person who bought it probably returned it... and then it was sold to me as a new item. Now... I am returning this POS and I want everyone to know that this has likely more to do with the vetting on returned items through amazon. The packaging department for the original item messed up big time too though. I want an RMA and a freaking return ASAP!I am disappointed because I paid for a new item. When I got this item, it was CLEARLY used. It was full of a dustpans worth of previous camping fod and dirt. Someone clearly used this, returned it, and then it was not vetted to ensure it was ready to be labeled new or used. I mean... the RMA process didnt even clean it out to make it look "new". If you're going to charge that price... clearly mark it as used. When I pay for a NEW product, I expect a NEW product. If you ordered a meal from a restaurant and you got something completely different wouldn't you be annoyed... even slightly?

One of the poles was defective and I hadn't noticed until it was time to set it up at camp. In order to make due, I had to force the pole into the ground and not its allotted pin, which made for an awkward and slanted tent. I wouldn't recommend purchasing this in a pinch as you will have no time to return if you neglect to test it out prior to actually needing it. I'd say this tent only fit two people comfortably not four. Since I hadn't used it within 30 days, I'm unable to return through Amazon, but will try tracking down the manufacturer.

Used once and it was fine no leaks but the second time I used the tent in a year it leaks from all four corners. Would not recommend to friends.

Poles snapped upon first use. 6 hrs away from home camping with no tent.

Leaking
