Coleman Instant Tent 8 – Product Review

Camping is one of the best ways to spend quality time with your family in the outdoors. A tent is one of the most important camping equipment every family should have. If you have quite a large family, you can consider getting a Coleman 8-Person Instant Tent. Just as its name suggests, this tent can accommodate up to 8 people. It is also very easy to set up; the poles are pre-attached to the tent, so there is no need for assembly. You just need to unfold and spread out the fabric, extend the poles, click and lock into place. The tent can be set up or taken down in just one minute. The cabin structure is stronger and heavier than most tents, so it is perfect for long stays.

The fabric of the Coleman Instant Tent 8 is heavy duty and is twice the thickness of the standard Coleman tent fabric. It is made of high quality 150D polyester taffeta which is tear resistant. Thanks to Coleman's WeatherTec system, the tent is virtually waterproof. Every seam is fully taped, so there is no need for a separate rain fly. However, you are advised to waterproof the tent if you want extra protection from heavy rain. There are seven large windows that provide excellent air circulation and 360 degrees of view. The roof vents help keep the inside of the tent cool at all times. The 16mm, 20mm and 22mm poles are made of steel and are durable and rigid.

The Coleman Instant Tent 8 has plenty of space and is tall enough to stand; it is 14 x 10 feet and the center height is 6'5 ". The removable partition can be used to divide the cabin into two rooms, and the tent has two doors: one in front and one in the back. The tent comes complete with a durable carry bag and a limited 1 year manufacturer's warranty.

The only major drawback of this tent is that it is fairly heavy and difficult to put in the carry bag. However, this is a common problem for most tents. Other than that, this tent is the ideal choice for large families. It has garnered a lot of positive reviews from users, and it has even won a VIP (Very Innovative Products) Award from the Good Housekeeping magazine. You can purchase this awesome tent from Coleman's official website of Amazon, and prices start from $ 203. Not bad for a tent that fits 8 people!

8 Reasons Why I Fell in Love With Tours of Morocco

Traveling to Morocco is not cheap but every penny spent there is totally worth it.

The country has a lot to offer – beautiful scenery, tasty food, hospitable people, and a quality and simplicity of life that is rare in our days.

These are the things that (in my eyes) make Morocco one of a kind travel experience.

1. Sahara Desert

The Sahara Desert is the main reason why people travel to Morocco. In Merzouga you can see the highest dunes and Morocco is a relatively safe destination to travel in comparison with the other countries where the desert occupies large parts of their territories.

2. Hassan II Mosque

Hassan II is the landmark of Casablanca but also the most beautiful mosque in Morocco. It is a surrealistic experience to walk around its impressive construction surrounded by the mist coming from the ocean. Try to visit the mosque on Sunday morning when many people go to the prayer and the place comes alive.

3. Majorelle Garden

Created by the French painter Jacques Majorelle but later the home of the designer Yves Saint-Laurent, this garden is a beautiful masterpiece combining oriental colors and exotic plants.

It is a quiet place in the middle of Marrakesh, the busy imperial city of Morocco and also the house of the Berber Museum, exhibition of the Berber’s culture, lifestyle, and handcrafts.

4. The Raids

Raids are traditional Moroccan houses that often are turned into small hotels. Feeling cozy behind the thick walls of your guest house after wandering on the small narrow streets of the medina will be your time for indulging in all things Morocco has to offer – good food, excellent service, and magical environment.

5. Medina

Walking in the medina can be really challenging for a woman. But the feeling of treasure hunting makes you feel exited in front of all these colorful babush slippers, spices, jewelry pieces, leather bags, tasty food and freshly baked bread. There are hundreds of items that you can choose from, many of them handmade.

6. Morocco Interiors

Another of Morocco’s charms are its cozy houses and bold house fixtures. The sofas are large and low, the tables are small but just enough for the tasty food and refreshing tea.

Lanterns make mysterious shade and the ochre color of the tiles makes the whole room look warm. Everything in the Moroccan style interior design is rustic but made with clear attention to the detail.

7. Carpets

Having shared my addiction to the Moroccan interiors, it is understandable to share my love for Moroccan carpets.

As everything in this country, they are in strong and warm colors, with simple designs that can fit any style. Your house can get a bright retouch with a Moroccan rug. The only problem can be its weight and volume for transporting it back home.

8. Oasis

Well, you have to go out of the famous cities like Marrakech and Casablanca, to pass the Atlas Mountains and on your way to the south you finally will get to take these unbelievable photos in orange and green colors. Oasis still exists in Morocco, just like at the time of Lawrence of Arabia.
