Bushnell 6 person tent is not a quick setup!
4 Stars
Bushnell 6 person tent is not a quick setup!
We purchased this tent for our upcoming dark sky trips we plan for the summer. We originally looked at a Bushnell 4 person tent. I’m glad we decided on the next size up. The six person tent will only hold a queen size air mattress and not much more. A four person tent would only be good for two adults if the six person is any thing to go by!Pros:1) Easy set up. It does quickly pull out and up quickly if you have two people doing it. When we set it up the next time we will know the ins and outs of doing it!2) It has nice sized windows (only negative no ties for the flaps so they hang loose) and the small air conditioning vent in the back will allow the camper to stay cool at night using a small 5,000 to 8,000 btu ac unit.3) There are a few storage pockets in the tent which are nice and a large storage net at the top where you can store additional items.4) It’s a tub floor which will help with water not getting into the tent. That is what this type of flooring is designed to prevent.5) Power cord pocket that will let you run an extension cord into the tent. This is located on the left side of the front of the tent.6) As of right now I cannot vouch for how rainproof it is. The material is very strong and sturdy! No issues with tears along the seams as some reviewers had. We will do what we’ve done before; buy seam sealer spray for the seams and waterproofing tent spray to give the tent additional water resistance. The large rain fly should afford additional protection from rain.7) Heat shield technology should help with the hot Texas nights. We will find out how effective it is once we start using it during the summer!8) The rain flys vestibule has pockets for storage. Nice to store the things you need to keep close and handy.Cons:1) This tent does not come with any instructions at all. The setting up of the tent itself is a no brainer. Still, simple instructions would have helped out with a few questions we had.2) The rain fly. Figuring out how it drapes across the tent is easy enough. The Bushnell logo is the front of the rain fly. Here, instructions for this would of helped to make that “60 second” setup more of a reality. After about 15 minutes we got the rain fly supported by the rods that support the small vestibule. NOTE HERE. At each of the bottom front corners of the tent by the loop for the corner tent stakes, you will see a round, 4” metal pin ring. These are used for the vestibule rods. You slip the bottom opening of each side of the rods onto the pin rings. This secures the vestibule rods and keeps them in place. At first we thought the ends would go into the ground and the legs would go within the rings. For us this was NOT the case. Doing so would of caused great stress on the corners of the tent and possibly damaged the tent itself.3) This truly is not a six person tent. If you had six adults in the tent on twin size sleeping mats yes, but it would still be tight and not allow for any personal space. As stated above, a queen size mattress is almost too big for this tent. If you want additional room you’d either have to go up to the next size for the tent or use cots for sleeping. Cots would give you more space.4) There is a gap between the inner rain fly edge and the tent itself. Not much but enough that a hard rain would come through that gap.As I stated, we have yet to use this tent. Husband and grandson will use it for backyard camping this weekend and we have rain coming so that will test how rainproof this tent is.Overall, it’s easy to set up, the bag you store it in has a zipper near the bottom that will expand the bag and allow you to fit the tent into it. This must be a new design of the bag as previous owners had a complaint about not being able to fit the tent into the storage bag. I will update this review once we receive a rain. So far that is the only “unknown” factor. Well that and wind!

So we bought this tent before we checked the weather of where we were camping.

We set it up for the 1st time in 10-15 min max, including taking it out of the shipping box, laying tarps down, moving it, setting it up, then staking it.
It was a joy not messing with 15 poles. It opened easy like an umbrella and then extend the legs. Easy peasy!

About 3 hours after we arrived the Temps dropped into the mid 30s!!!!! We stayed pretty dang warm. Infact, at 4am I went out to for a potty break and felt the drastic difference in temperature inside the tent vs outside.

The next three days brought poring rain and 40 degree Temps. We stayed warm and DRY! No leaks even with torental rain and heavy winds.

This tent is way better than I expected. In the summer the large screen windows and side vents will help cool the tent down, I am sure.

All in all highly recommend. We got the medium size. It fit our queen bed and two 49 inch dog beds. 2 folding chairs some tubs and tables. With space left to maneuver around.
Did I mention durability. I have one 130lbs dog and one 100lbs dog. They are NOT gentle and the tent has stood up to scratching, trying to push the doors open, trying to poke nose through windows and screen doors. So it is durable!

Great investment. If you are on the fence, I recommend buying it.

So I put up the tent for the first time. Very easy to put up. Tent is made of a thicker material then previous two tents. Now, understand I live in this tent. I’m off grid starting to build a house , so this is my home. I’m in the 9x11 one, I think it’s the 9 man. I have a double cot in it. could fit another one and still have room. So far zippers are holding up, I like the fact that they are straight up and down. my last tent had a radius to them. So bad. Love love love the little awning it comes with nice and big. Could fit a couple chairs under it and stay out of rain. It has rained and hailed on the tent. So far so good. Not a huge fan of the window set up in the rain. After it stopped I opened them and water came in. Wish the rain fly extended out a little further. One other bad thing is the front doors there’s only one grommet to hold door open??? Doesn’t work very well. Ending on a positive note. Love the fact it has nice Big screens on it and when the awning is on you can leave the front two open and watch the rain. Over all very happy with the tent. Well worth the money.

(Purchase 18x11 12 person tent) This tent went through several weather elements in 3 days (nights). First ease of install this was easy to install with two people and didn't take long at all (5 mins) 10 mins with stake down. 2nd space, in this tent we had 2 twin air mattresses in one room with a 2ft space in between length wise the mattresses went right up to the curtain. On the other side we had 2 Ozark cots and 1 twin air mattress with just enough space in between for the kids to get out. We did not have anything set up in the center room which left us plenty of room to sleep 5 and still be very comfortable. We could have easily had 2 more twin bed in the center. Third, the tent went through a severe thunderstorm with heavy rain and wind (No hail) the tents itself blew alot but the frame shockingly DID NOT MOVE. Winds were 18mph with gust up to 50mph. This tent stayed very dry except for 1 area which me to the 4th topic, the ventilation windows on the bottom of each side of tent. They must be staked down to prevent alot of water coming in they do not zip close or anything so they either dangle there or stake down. Our were staked down and we had 1 oz spots after 6 hours of constant heavy rain. For me it wasn't a big deal as a simple towel cleaned it right up. This trip we managed to in a very buggy area and constantly had DOZENS OF daddy long legs all over outside of tent along with other bugs, NOT A SINGLE BUG was in the tent with keeping doors zipped 100% of the time.
