Our take on the Outwell Phoenix 5

The Outwell Phoenix 5 is a four-room tunnel tent for families, sleeping up to five people. It has a 4000 mm hydrostatic head fly, a fully sewn-in polyethylene groundsheet, and a large front vestibule. At 28.1 kg packed, it is a car-camping tent that needs two people to pitch. The latest best price is $549 at Camping World as of November 3, which is within its recent range of $499 to $599.

Questions and answers

Is the Outwell Phoenix 5 worth it?
For families who camp from a car and want separate rooms, yes. It offers good space and rain protection for the price. If you need a lightweight tent for backpacking, look elsewhere.
How does it compare to the Outwell Phoenix 6?
The Phoenix 6 sleeps six and adds length and weight. The Phoenix 5 is easier to pitch and fits smaller pitches, but has less room for a large family.
Can it handle heavy rain?
The 4000 mm hydrostatic head fly and polyethylene groundsheet handle steady rain well. In prolonged downpours, check that guylines are tight and avoid pitching in a depression.
What's included in the box?
The tent comes with guylines and pegs. You supply a pump if you use an airbed, and a mallet for pegs.
When is the best time to buy?
Prices tend to drop at the end of the camping season, from late August through October. The current $549 at Camping World as of November 3 is within its recent range.
