Coleman was a US company since 1871 with great quality and fantastic customer service, and they'd sell you any parts you need (or just ship them to you). 5 or 6 years ago they were bought out by a Chinese company and everything since then is pure junk. It falls apart quickly and there is ZERO support and no ability to buy replacement parts!
Old Coleman tents from 10 years ago are far superior to the ones they sell today. Right now this company is operating off the fumes from the goodwill the Coleman brand name generated over many generations. AVOID.

Put two twin air mattresses on either end, with gear/entry in the middle and you've got a pretty luxurious car camping setup. No frills, but well made and surprisingly tall in the middle. A wee bit heavy, but if you've got 2-3 people backpacking and sharing the loads, it could be doable for a long weekend trip on foot.
I'd be torn between this and the 6-person blackout Ozark Trail tent that came up yesterday for about the same price…

Is this an instant tent?

Can you please share the link for 6-person blackout Ozark Trail tent ?
In general, 6 person tent is good for 4 and 8 person tent is good for 5-6 people.

Nope, about 7-10 minutes solo or 5 mins with help. Pretty basic setup, three poles including one for the rain fly.
Thank you

Looks like it expired overnight, but this was the only tent that's given me any buyers remorse. OTOH, 90sf is pretty big for a solo* setup and the poles have kinks/hinges which complicates things.

* not camping alone, just usually the only one DOING ANYTHING TO HELP
The weakspot in this tent is the rain fly pole. If It were 6" shorter, it'd be perfect. The pole seems to be made too long, and while it works, it is only a matter of time until it breaks from the stress. I always carry electrical tape as a fix for this eventuality, although to me, the rainfly pole is really only needed for rainy nights you know are coming.
If you are experienced at setting up tents, this can easily be done solo in less than 10 minutes.
All in all a great tent, that for the price, is very good. I've seen it cheaper in year's past, but if you need a tent, this is a good one.

Coleman is currently owned by the same group (Newell) that owns Rubbermaid, Elmer's, Sharpie etc. Don't think it owned by a Chinese company. The goods maybe made in China but the company Newell is American. Does not talk of quality though - with the constant pressure to keep price the same lot of these companies move to China for making their goods. Pretty sure the quality have decreased as they continue to sell items around dollar 50
