What is a good brand for camping tents?

I’m looking into buying a tent to be used for at least 3 camping events a year. I want something at least 6foot or more, probably a 6 person tent. I’m wondering are good brands…or brands to avoid. Currently looking at Northwest Territory, Tahoe Gear, Wenzel, Leberna, and Coleman…maybe Sussie. I’m finding some of the prior listed ones that are larger and yet cost less than a smaller sized Coleman. Not sure if that’s quality or brand name difference.

Thank you!

Answer #3

I have a cool Jack Wolfskin tent. (Space for 6 people in 2 sleeping cabins, a large middle room, tunnel shape)

It was expensive, (~ 800€) but robust and fast & easy to build. I used it like 5-6 times a year for 8 Years. And it is still good, but the plastic windows are now becoming blind & aren’t waterproof aymore. But that’s normal. Soft plastic corrodes and becomes brittle when the softeners evaporate. The company has got a tent repair service and told me they would replace the windows and sew in new ones for 150€. I am thinking about doing it myself.
