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.

Edit: Didn't realize quite how long I've had this account without commenting even once. Hello, world!
How do you seal the seams?
I'd recommend this for car camping for 1-2 people. Not something I'd take to Everest, but mine saw some rain and wind and held up fine. Good luck finding anything significantly better in the price range.
Could you recommend an instant tent?

Honestly I wouldn't take any cheap tent to a wetter climate now - my previous experience was mostly camping in the Western US where rain is light, infrequent and mostly rolls off. Eastern/Appalachian camping is a whole other matter. Get a good tent with a really good rainfly and save yourself hours of trouble mopping up water and stringing tarps between trees. I know that's my plan going forward... sadly I can't recommend anything yet.
- Warranty's are useless, the company will just make a snap decision whether to replace your item. Largely based on their current loss calculation, not your specific scenario or warranty.
- Company reputations and pride are bought and sold or just plain tossed out the window by current management.
- Products are radically changed or replaced without being transparent to customers. Same upc box but different materials or product inside.
- It is truly an Amazon era where buyers have to really work understanding what they are actually getting and rely on that companies policy as of today, not to be guaranteed at some future date.
The lines have blurred so much that Chinese vs American vs Antartica isn't really a way to judge. While a lot of it is corporate bottom line there is also equal blame in the pressure customers have exerted to allow companies to make this shift. Cheap disposable good beyond consumables used to be the exception but now it is the rule. We voted with our dollars to get here 🤷
Not that I've seen for the 4-person, just for the 2-3. It's a pretty big size difference. If I'm wrong, please correct me, but since all Sundomes look the same I usually confuse them.
Slept in the backyard in this again last night with 2 kids. I would never go more crowded than that.
Or 2 adults plus gear (or an infant, if you're into being miserable!)
