Because they typically feature more durable fabric coatings, as well as more poles, four-season tents are designed to handle heavy snowfall and high winds without collapsing.

Domes are also inherently stronger than any other design. Meanwhile, many three-season models employ a modified dome configuration called a tunnel. These are still freestanding, but they require fewer poles than a dome, use less fabric, and typically have a rectangular floor-plan that offers less storage space than a dome configuration. Many one and two-person tents are not freestanding, but they make up for it by being more lightweight. Because they use fewer poles, they can also be quicker to set up than a dome.pstrongfont color=CC6600Size Matters/font/strongbr Ask yourself how many people you'd like to fit in your fabric hotel now and in the future. For soloists and minimalists, check out one-person tents. If you're a mega-minimalist, or if you have your eye on doing some big wall climbs, a waterproof-breathable bivy sack is the ticket. Some bivy sacks feature poles and stake points to give you a little more breathing room. Also, if you don't need bug protection and you want to save weight, check out open-air shelters.p Families who plan on car camping in good weather can choose from a wide range of jumbo-sized tents that will accommodate all your little ones with room to spare. A wide range of capacities is also available for three- and four-season backpacking and expedition tents.

The main indication that it’s not the same tent is the color of rain rain fly, which Amazon is not showing a pic of here (right now)… so this seems borderline marketing deception.br /br /Differences from the Elite WeatherMaster(tm) 6 Screened Tent are: does not have the “Self rolling windows” featured in the video, does not have the rods to make the rain fly arch above the door and … as previously noted … the screen porch does not have a floor (not sure if the new version has that either tho! 
) Also, a check on Coleman.com indicates that some of the replacement parts are no longer available.. don’t know if parts for the newer version would work with it.br /br /I cannot comment on usage, as I just got mine this week and set it up in the yard today.br /br /However, for the price (which I see just dropped from what I paid last week … bummer 
) it’s a great deal. Just realize that it’s not quite what you might expect if you looked at the Coleman video on Elite tents.br /
