Our take on the Coleman Montana 8-Person

The Montana 8 is Coleman's long-running eight-person dome tent, built for family car camping. It uses a color-coded fiberglass pole set, a full polyester fly with a 59-inch hydrostatic head, and a roomy 16 by 7 foot floor with 74 inches of headroom at the center. One door and no vestibule keep it simple to pitch, but the single entry gets crowded with a full group. Owners like the space and weather protection for the money; the common complaints are weight, bulk and condensation on cool nights.

Pros
  • Large 16 x 7 ft floor fits eight sleeping bags with gear
  • 74-inch center height lets most adults stand hunched-free
  • Full-coverage fly with taped seams and a 59-inch hydrostatic head
  • Color-coded poles make setup straightforward
  • Vented roof and mesh panels help airflow in warm weather
Cons
  • Around 24.5 lb packed, so it is a car-camping tent only
  • Single door and no vestibule mean a bottleneck at bedtime
  • Condensation builds up inside on cold, still nights
  • Fiberglass poles are less durable than aluminum in strong wind
  • Bulky pack takes up trunk space

Questions and answers

Is the Montana 8 big enough for eight adults?
Eight adults fit on paper, but it is tight with gear. Most owners use it for four to six people plus bags, or for eight kids.
Can it stand up to rain?
Yes. The full polyester fly has a 59-inch hydrostatic head and taped seams, and owners report staying dry in steady rain. Guy it out in wind.
How long does it take to pitch?
Two people can raise it in about 10 to 15 minutes. The color-coded fiberglass poles and dome shape keep it simple.
Does it work for backpacking?
No. At roughly 24.5 lb packed it is a car-camping tent. Backpackers should look at a lighter two- or three-person shelter.
Is there a vestibule for boots and gear?
No. The Montana 8 has one door and no vestibule, so wet gear stays inside or under the fly edge.
What season is it rated for?
It is a three-season tent. It handles spring through fall rain and wind, but it is not a winter or heavy-snow shelter.
Where is the Coleman Montana 8-Person cheapest?
At Coleman, for $269.99, as of our latest check.
Where can I buy the Coleman Montana 8-Person?
