This was popular last times I posted here this time it’s over $100 cheaper. Located on Tentworld eBay and use code FRIBLK22 for $153.78 off. This makes it $545.22 which is a great price for this highly rated tent.

Edit: Looks like it’s $559.20 for non eBay Plus members using FRIBLK20

Wish I’d held out as purchased it for the much higher price!

      Quality…it is a big tent tbh and it really is solid quality. Comes in a bag which is like a soft suitcase with wheels.

  • aliask on 29/11/2022 - 21:41

    Have the 4 person version of this tent. It's great, but the blackout coating stuff does have a strong chemical/plastic smell.
    If you're sensitive to that sort of thing it may be an issue but hasn't been a dealbreaker for us and the dark mornings have been nice.

    • Jessie Ryder on 29/11/2022 - 22:14

      I have zero chemical / plastic smell.
      Take yours back if it is faulty

      • angusf on 30/11/2022 - 10:32

        Same here, no smell (aside from the usual fresh plasticy smell, but that goes after a good airing).

    10 person. So really, 5 person.

    • humphrey623 on 29/11/2022 - 23:34
      +1

      I trust you're being cheeky, but I own it- it could VERY comfortably do six if you do two people per 'room', and reasonably do nine with three in each room.

      • MassEffect on 30/11/2022 - 13:55

        Not being cheeky. It depends on your body size and the level of comfort that is acceptable to you and everyone else sharing the space with you. You may be fine with cramming 9 people in it, I'm not. I like my personal space not invaded. And I get that it's a tent, it's not about comfort, but hey, this is just me being me.

        • humphrey623 on 30/11/2022 - 21:00
          +2

          Well surely suggesting 5 people across three different rooms is pretty hyperbolic! Regardless, as someone who actually owns the tent, six is super roomy, nine would be reasonable.

    Bought the exact same tent except in 8 person a couple of days ago. Hasn't arrived yet. With the blkfri coupon it came down to $468, which i also thought was a bargain 😉

  • dogzilla on 29/11/2022 - 22:49

    I have this tent - be mindful its a heavy sucker @ 30kg.

    Goes up reasonably quickly, in reality its a two person job but at a pinch you could do it with one.

    One tip - throw away all the little metal pegs and get decent ones - i learned the hard way with the tent blowing over at 2am.

    Lighting is great, connect a little USB Battery and you have room switches with lights….noice.

    Bought the same tent 2 years ago for $900 so this is a steal.

    • paracaps on 29/11/2022 - 23:12

      Which pegs do you recommend?

      • matt-ozb on 30/11/2022 - 01:01

        depends on the ground … in certain grass/soil the stock pegs can be perfect .. in softer sand, then get sand pegs .. maybe you need x3 types … firm soil, soft soil, sand.

      • dogzilla on 30/11/2022 - 09:38

        I just went some of the Oztrail Plastic Tent Peg Yellow 23cm ones, i also had some with jagged edges which wouldnt come out of the ground in a tornado - but anythings better than the little metal ones. Theyre fine for your ground sheet but buy something larger for the guy ropes.

      • Typical16-bitEnjoyer on 30/11/2022 - 12:14

        I'll jump in and recommend pegs that you can use a drill. Game changer.

  • USER DC on 29/11/2022 - 23:50

    how do these compare to say like 2 of the cheap 3-4 person tents from Kmart ?

    • Doowyah on 30/11/2022 - 07:26

      I have had a Kmart tent and it has leaked but YMMV

    • miicah on 30/11/2022 - 08:20
      +2

      All your bulk/weight is in one spot in the car instead of two. The actual tent will be of much higher quality (things like zips, insect mesh and seams). It's an instant up which means no threading of poles or anything like that, so way easier to set up.

      I've done the classic cheap tent -> medium tent -> expensive tent route and I honestly wish I'd just skipped the cheap ones. They are basically throw away items and it sucks, both for the consumer and the environment.

    • hoxygt on 30/11/2022 - 13:51

      If it means you can put your kids on the other side of the caravan park/ different suburb - then get two tents!

    How is this conpared to the coleman traveller series?

    • HappyPants on 30/11/2022 - 04:31

      I think the traveller series is towards the bottom. There is a Gold series, which is basically the same as this one in quality, then the silver….then traveller? I noticed Anaconda has a coleman darkroom to tent too, but its DEFINITELY not as good quality as this one or the Gold series.
      But hey, its just a tent.

    I've had an older (no internal lighting) version of this tent for years, we camp 3-4 times a year with it. Much better build than my first cheapy and stands up fine in heavy weather.
    No chemical smell in mine (which someone mentioned). Have had to replace one of the poles but no other dramas.
    I can put it up by myself but easier to take down with two - for the bit where you fold it and try to put it away and then unfold it and get the poles pointing the right way and then fold again.

    Awnings are good as long as there isn't much wind but we don't tend to use them. It's a 3 room tent - kids in one end, all our gear in the middle room and us at the end.

  • Jatacid on 30/11/2022 - 09:14

    what's a good 2 man (ie 3 man) car camping tent? I don't want one of those crappy disposable tents often seen at festivals etc that can't hold up for at least a few uses.

  • ebosh on 30/11/2022 - 09:44
    +2

    We've had our older (no lighting version) for about 6 years now and it's been great. Paid ~$800 and haven't ever regretted it. Probably averaged 3 trips per year in that time and the only thing that's gone wrong is one of the pole locking mechanisms has become a bit fiddly to unlock when packing up.

    The weight wasn't as much of an issue provided there was two of us to lift it in and out of the car. Size-wise it was a snug fit across the width of the boot in our old car (2016 RAV4) which worked well.

    We had 2 kids up one end, bags/clothes/stuff in the middle, and us in the other end. The darkness was an absolute godsend when the kids were really young as they would happily nap during the day

  • dogzilla on 30/11/2022 - 09:47

    Do you mean one that fits on a car roof or a small tent.

    A 3 man tent a mate has got is one of these - they look amazing but you might get a bit deflated by the price

    Is this tent a good place to develop film?
