Finally, a rainfly... What vestibule?
By C. R. Joy
Yes, after a lot of customer feedback Coleman finally decided to release a rainfly for their Instant Tent line. As seen in my pictures above it comes in a similar pouch and it has the same tie-down lines and pin-style stakes as the tents themselves. As of this writing I have yet to find any information on this item from Coleman themselves. Most of what I read before purchasing my Instant Tent 6 was on the FJ Cruiser Forum at [...], and the Expedition Portal forum at [...].The rainfly itself is pretty much what you expect, a very tight weave of poly fabric with double-stitched seams, and it should work well. Considering all the Instant Tent reviews talking about leaking this should have been an available accessory from the very beginning, and if Coleman's smart about it they should start including it with the purchase of a new tent. A rainfly not only helps keep you dry when it rains, it also provides the air gap that becomes an extra bit of insulation in winter and summer. Since the fly has no venting it will retain some of the warmth leaking out the top of the tent in cold weather. In my neck of the woods it also provides some extra shade in the summertime.The two main reasons I gave this item 4 stars and not 5?..1. What vestibule? I realize the product description comes from Coleman, the manufacturer, and not from Amazon. That said, Amazon needs to amend it and take the manufacturer to task for the incorrectness. I pre-ordered this product even though no one had seen it yet and there were no pictures anywhere on the internet. I am happy that I have a rainfly for a tent that I enjoy using, but when the description clearly states "...The Rainfly also instantly creates a spacious vestibule outside -- perfect for stowing shoes and other gear...", then that is what you expect to get for your money. A look at the picture of the pouch shows Coleman's own image of the entry door to the tent with the fly on top of the tent. There is clearly no extra coverage over the entry door...2. The description also clearly states that you can 'comfortably' open the windows when it's raining, yet the fly just covers the top couple of inches on those huge tent windows. Personally, if I'm going to have to spend extra to get a rainfly it should be worth the time and $$ and not just a specially shaped tarp (though most are). The fly should extend far enough down to get the windows at least half-open, and there should be spring-tension rods to give the fly shape and keep it rigid where it is away from the tent. Basically this would give the fly little 'awnings' for each window like those commmonly seen on roof top tents (see pictures here for reference - [...]).So in the end we finally get a rainfly for the Instant Tents, but that's all it is, so don't tell us it does more than that, Coleman.

Well, it did keep the rain out...
By E. Buthmann
I bought this last year in March for what was then an upcoming camping trip where we were expecting some rain and wind. I must say it worked wonders for keeping the rain out of my tent. However, the heat that myself and the one other person in the tent let off caused a massive amount of condensation to form inside. I have used the tent before and since, with no such outcome. With the fly on, I could not ventilate enough and still keep us dry from the rain. I don't know how we would have fared without the fly in the rain. But, I do know that we that it didn't allow any moisture to enter. So, in that respect it failed. Had there not been as much wind that night i may have been able to open the windows of the tent a little more without the fear of water entering. Maybe I will give it another try on a less windy/rainy night. As for the ease of use with this fly...it is one of the easiest I have ever used. No fiddling with tension rods to create vestibules and whatnot. I simply though it over the top of the tent and clipped it on. I was able to do it on my own (along with the pitching the tent itself as my camping partner was "too busy" messing around the campground to help me). Anyway, back to the point, it kept rain out, moisture in, and was easy to use. User be warned, you may have a similar experience or not, you won't know unless you try.

By R. Merikle
Took one star off for not being included with the tent. It works well and does what it is suppose to. Also wish there was a better way to store this with the tent. If you are expecting rain then get this with your tent.
