Roomy enough for the whole gang, the Coleman WeatherMaster 8 Tent is designed for easy setup. The WeatherMaster 8 sleeps 8 people comfortably in three rooms; it has a footprint of 14′x8′ and a center height of 6′4″. Coleman’s Comfort System allows control of airflow with Variflo adjustable ventilation, including the vented Cool-Air Port, privacy vent window, and electrical access port. Continuous, color-coded pole sleeves, an exclusive pin-and-ring design, and InstaClip attachments make setup a breeze with the 19mm steel poles.
