Kelty Wireless 6-Person Tent

2023-11-27T19:00:00

This is a roomy 5 person tent with ample space for storgae and relatively large vestibules. We camped in Northern California and Western Nevada using primitive or no campsites at all. The conditions were moderately difficult with strong winds, rain and up to -15 celsius. The tent survived this trip with no damage despite the very heavy fiberglass poles and seemingly very thin shock cords. The inner walls were moiste and completly frozen in the morning but no rain ********* the tend and the 3 poles nicely holds even the moderately strong wind gusts. It is rather easy to build or pack the tent. The two problems are the height that require to stand within the tend in order to attach the upper part to the poles and the tight fit between the metal ferrules and the hooks that is nerve breaking to attach in fear of breaking the hooks. Overall this is a nice three seasons family tent that is suitable for a car camping in developed campgrounds.

We spent our first week in the tent, including hot days, cool days and a torrential downpour day. We were comfy the entire time, with no water or condensation in the tent. We did purchase the corresponding footprint. The vents in the fly were lifesavers when we were fully buttoned up in the storm. Vestibules kept our shoes dry during rain. They were easy to zip and unzip. The tent doors are really easy to zip and unzip with one hand. Fit comfortably a mid-height queen air mattress, our duffel bags & backpacks. We're 6'1" and 6'6" and didn't feel cramped. Super easy setup and teardown. Middle pole clip might be interesting for shorter folks, practice before you go camp. This is a great tent if you're not worried about pack weight, and want a tall center with a full fly and quick setup.

I got this Kelty Wireless 6P tent to give my wife and I more room in a 3 season tent. The two doors make it very easy to enter and step out and the full coverage vestibules help the tent do very well in windy situations. I love being able to fully stand up inside the tent instead of having to bend over once inside like our older tent provided with its limited height. This Wireless 6P is our favorite go to car camping tent.

I have been snowed on, had moderate rain with moderately high winds, and it is a joy to know that the Wireless tent will hold up. The tent is cozy and is pretty tall. The setup is super easy. My wife was not a tent camper however on the second time after helping me put it up, I have full confidence that she can put this tent and rain fly up by herself. An extra hand is always helpful but it seriously is very easy and quick to setup. We have the wireless 6 for 2 adults, 1 little human, and 1 dog and we have plenty of room. It can sleep 6 for sure however, I would say it would sleep 4 or 5 comfortably. This is a tent that I will have for a very long time.

Bought this for car camping with my family of four. I'm 6'2" and can stand up in the center, which is great. Had a slight issue with the floor but hopefully the warranty department comes through.

what is good: I got the new tent. Tent is big (6 people can really live inside). Very easy installation, even for one small person like me. Can see the sky if installed without the rain cover. The rain cover itself is really waterproof. What I do not like: the cloth of the tent and the cloth of the rain cover looks like not new. It's like somebody chew it for a long time, then somebody wash it, and add another water repellent impregnation on the rain cover and _on_the_internal_tent_ itself. I can see additional marking on the fabric of the tent, like it was used for something else before. At the same time, the cloth for the bag of the tent is made from exactly the same material, and it is perfect and smooth. I expect that this tent will not last long, maybe for one season only. Will return it back. On the photos on this site and another sites the rain cover and the tent cloth looks much better than in reality.
