Q. Ive been looking at purchasing an Outwell Tent. My only problem I think I have with them is there isnt no mesh windows for superior ventilation in the summer heat.I know they have ventilation area's but Im not sure it would be enough when it gets hot hear In Southern Ont. Canada. I realize you can open up the panaramic rooms, but then again the bugs... just curious if anyone does have one how well they really do stay cool in our hot summer months. Uk answers welcome too, thanks.
Answer
They are a european tent maker very popular in the UK. Some folks here will pretend to know the product, ie MM,
Never used them myself looking at the different models they have a dome style with very ample windows for ventilation, some are humongous is size so definitely a car camping tent not for back packing at all. Reading the reviews is how you will get real answers from folks that have owned them, check their web site out and find a supplier near you

Here in the America's car camping tent makers that are popular are Coleman, Eureka, and Wenzel and a host of other knock off brands found at retail outlets that sell camping goods. These brand names will be in the affordable class. There are also high end tent makers that make some family sized tents and purportedly you do pay for what you get. Not knowing what your specific need is I will stick to recommending the Coleman line of family tents as these are more like the Outwell brands in comparison

What is the biggest camping tent available?

I am leading a youth group camping trip this summer and I'm looking for a very large tent to accommodate optimally 15-16 people? I have looked at several 12 person tents (Gettysburg 12 Family Camping Tunnel Tent, Trekker⢠20' x 16' Cabin Tent and the Copper Canyon 12), but was hoping for something maybe a bit bigger.
Positive reviews about waterproofing is also a must. Our tents last year leaked horribly in the rain, even with the rain fly on and tarp underneath.
Answer
How much money do you have, how big do you need to go?

As far as managing a group several smaller tents would be more suitable, you can arrange the tents around a central canopy for example like the circling of the wagon trains of old. this works best with vertical wall tents of the cabin styles like the Copper Canyon 12 or the Coleman Instant 8. Figure also gear for each camper unless they are on a cot each person will have gear that takes up sleeping space so figure 1 extra space for 3 persons is needed so a four man tent actually comfortably sleeps three, an eight man sleeps 6 and so on.
Personally as having been there done that thousands of times as a scoutmaster, The Coleman Tent family has the best reputation for staying dry in and not breaking the bank, so I highly recommend them.
