Eureka! Copper Canyon 10 Five- to Six-Person 10-Foot by 10-Foot Family Tent

Eureka! Copper Canyon 10 Five- to Six-Person 10-Foot by 10-Foot Family Tent

Sleep 4 to 5 people comfortably in this 100 sq. ft. tent and still have room to spare! This cabin style tent provides much more usable interior space than typical dome style tents. Straight walls offer more head room and allow campers to push cots and gear closer to the walls and out of the way. Large, side-opening, twin-track D-style door features #8 zippers for durability and zipper covers for added water protection. 4 large zippered windows open for excellent visibility and air flow and close for privacy. Extra weatherproof design features a 75D polyester taffeta bathtub floor that wraps up the sides of the tent, keeping seams high above the ground and water out. Additional features include steel and fiberglass poles for durability and pole sleeves, frame clips and ring and pin assemblies make set up a snap. Nickel sliders and self-healing zippers will provide years of trouble-free use and factory-taped major seams help to seal out the weather. Special touches like the E! Power Port for an extension cord (not included) and a handy sweep-out point make this tent extra friendly for those campers who want some of the conveniences of home.

 

Great tent!5

This tent exceeded every expectation I had. I was skeptical of only having a stake at each corner, but when properly set up the tent is extremely stable. The steel and fiberglass poles are all heavy duty and the set up is easy with 2 people (only took 10-15 min. without instructions). The rainfly is easily assembled and appears to cover all the mesh. It did not rain on our trip. The nylon seems to be of good quality and the stitching is heavy duty and taped.



The interior is very efficient thanks to the near vertical walls. I would expect to be comfortable with up to 4 people (we were only 2). We really liked the all mesh roof which is great for stargazing and ventilation. We also liked the large mesh windows that can be zipped for privacy. There are large windows on each wall. Everyone else in our group seemed to admire this tent and a few expressed interest in getting one.



The weather was dry and windy the first day. We had gusts up to about 30 mph. and the tent never budged. I suspect the rainfly had a lot to do for the stability as the guy wires anchor close to the support poles.



Overall I love this tent and find it hard to believe that anyone would dislike it. This tent is not designed to handle extreme wind, but anyone with common sense knows you shouldn't use a cabin tent if you expect violent weather.



Tips: 1)Always place a waterproof tarp under your tent.

2)The stakes that come with this tent are subpar. Get some inexpensive steel stakes.
