1 / 2Coleman Oak Canyon 4 BlackOut Family Tent, 4 Person
The Coleman Oak Canyon 4 is a four-person family tunnel tent with two darkened sleeping cabins and a separate storage area. BlackOut bedroom technology is claimed to reduce daylight in the sleeping area, while the listing describes the fabric as water resistant. Its listed weight is 17.1 kg, so it is better suited to car camping than trips where carrying weight is a priority.

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
Listing details are inconsistent: the title claims two extra-dark cabins and 100% waterproofing, while the technical fields say water resistant. The stated dimensions, height, weight and pole count also differ from the product-description figures, which give 14.5 kg and describe steel and fibreglass poles. Treat these figures as unconfirmed and check the selected listing before buying. BlackOut, cooler-temperature and UV figures are manufacturer claims, not independent measurements.

Aggregate ratings lean positive, with most ratings in the five-star category, but a substantial share are also one- and two-star. Without customer-comment evidence, the ratings do not establish what buyers liked or disliked. For a four-person tent listed at 17.1 kg, transport weight and the conflicting water-resistance details are practical points to weigh alongside its two darkened cabins.
