Darrell In Tents | Coleman Evanston 8-Person Tent Setup & Take Down

[@kellymoorewith4]

OK, it’s the next day, and I don’t know what’s worse, setting the tent up for getting it all of it back in the bag! But I did it. Feel like a revolver eight seconds, but I did it!

[@brendatuck6812]

[@WhentheShipGoesDown17]

Best radio voice.

[@ajun6280]

Thank you very much for the tip on how to store it back to the bag!

[@CyberReap]

"The secret is to fold it in half, then fold it in half again, then fold it in half again" Thank you so much, I could not figure out how to fold it so it'd fit back in the carrying case, absolutely solid tip

[@joeytortorice7779]

Thanks for this video because me and my two friends needed help putting this up and taking down

[@brainquest72]

This man did a great job by not only setting it up in an efficient manner, but also explaining at times. It was good how @ times the video was fast forwarded, otherwise your audience will move to another video.

Thanks Dad. I have this same tent coming in the mail today and I'll actually be taking my children up to Georgia from Florida next month for their very first camping trip ever and while I wasn't necessarily concerned I absolutely now feel completely confident in getting this tent setup and packed back up when we are done. Thank you!!

I love these kinds of videos. You just helped them make another sale!

[@raquelmontanez2181]

Thank you for the video. I bought this long time ago I had no idea how to installed it. You made seem so easy 😊

[@kaitlinspittell6993]

Thanks Darrell! Your video was so helpful. I bought this tent after watching your video

[@darrellintents3086]

Happy to help! Thanks for the comment!

Great video!

[@kellymoorewith4]

Single mom and I’m pretty proud of myself for setting this up with my 10 year old son with Down syndrome. My almost 13 year old and my 14 year old know it all sons gave up and went in the house. I hope now they see that their mom has a lot more knowledge than they thought she did. I bought this for us to go on adventures and they both told me they hate camping. Neither have ever went because their dad hates camping. I’m hoping I won’t be camping alone after they see it up. Maybe they will change their minds? I’m sweating like crazy 😅 July probably isn’t the best time to camp in the Midwest 😂 But I am so proud of myself.

Great video, best tent video I have seen by far. Thanks!

Wow! Thanx Mike Stimmler!

[@pattibooker5811]

The tent in this video is a Coleman Evanston 6. I have it and just bought a new Evanston 8 because the screen porch on the 6 was nothing but a water catcher whenever it rained. The Evanston 8 has a rain fly that covers the door, which is a hinged door.

[@tomcatt998]

Wish i hadda known that B 4 i got da 6

[@Intokia45]

The bag says 8, and even on the side of the tent, it says 8. I looked at other videos of the Evanston 8 and none have a hinged door.

[@ChickenJoe24]

Just purchased this today for 84.99. Looking forwards to it's first use! Summers hot here in Florida but winter can't come soon enough

Where did you buy it for $85?

Thanks, dad!

You made it look easy. Some tips about this tent I recently purchased this tent and went camping in SD. It was hot and windy during the day and very cold at night. The tent didn't handle the wind well on first set up but after stretching some it did ok. The very back window does not have a zipper cover so you can only close it by adjusting the top cover. The front porch has no zippable covers so blowing rain will get in. Only half the door unzips so it can be awkward. It is spacious enough for a queen sized cot and all my stuff.

[@darrellintents3086]

Great comments Shelly, thanx for the review after using it in wind and rain!

[@JaviWasHere95]

Thanks man !

[@Canadian_Craftsman]

Man that thing is BIG nice portable little cabin, I really like the big porch idea very useful in crappy weather!!(=

[@darrellintents3086]

I think you're right!

[@stormyboy129]

Keep in mind that the porch area gets wet when it rains because it's not entirely protected by the rainfly. However, there's some kind of gutter system so that water doesn't build-up

[@darrellintents3086]

@@stormyboy129 very true! Thanx for the comment!

[@starlover1746]

Great video! Does the screened in porch zip at the bottom, or just Velcro?

[@darrellintents3086]

Yes, Amy Smith. The screened in porch does zip at the bottom.

[@heatherhilliar7846]

Is there a spot that you can run a cord through if you have electric available?

[@darrellintents3086]

I find most tents can accommodate cords at the end of the zipper. Zip up to the cord.

[@thebuffytanner9711]

What about the tensioners?

[@darrellintents3086]

I’m not sure I understand your question.

[@harleyjackson4208]

I came here to learn how to work the guide wires lol

[@chrisalley9718]

The screen porch turns into a pool after a rain storm...smh. should have left out the floor or used something that would allow water to pass through

[@javierbravo513]

8 perdón ??? Impposible
