Canopies, Sport Shelters & Umbrellas
A classic polyester dome tent, the Mineral King 3 uses two high-quality pre-bent aluminum poles, which maximize head and shoulder space, making this tent feel less cramped than other dome tents we tested. Two large doors provide easy entry and exit, and a vestibule—that’s camping speak for “mudroom”—outside each door adds significant sheltered storage. The… Continue reading Canopies, Sport Shelters & Umbrellas

The Screen House is far more portable but less rugged than the Clam, and it also offers a fully enclosed system that keeps bugs at bay. The Eureka Tagalong is lightweight with stellar components, so if you want to be a bit more mobile with your canopy, this is one of our favorites. And if… Continue reading Canopies, Sport Shelters & Umbrellas
Canopies, Sport Shelters & Umbrellas
The no-see-um mesh was great at keeping insects away, so I could enjoy my outdoor time without any pesky interruptions. As someone who enjoys spending time outdoors, I recently tried out the Ozark Trail 13×11 Screen Tent with Two Large Entrances Red. This tent has proved to be a handy addition to my camping gear.… Continue reading Canopies, Sport Shelters & Umbrellas

The Clam also sets up and folds down with remarkable speed—we timed the process at 60 seconds. However, this model is too big to fit in the trunks of most sedans, and the muted colors look good when it’s sunny but can feel a bit gloomy if it’s already rainy out. Adults as tall as… Continue reading Canopies, Sport Shelters & Umbrellas

This still has a lot of life left in it and I would love to be able to fix it. If anyone has a hub gable or #1 Roof pole, I would be interested in buying those parts.

I was wondering if anyone out there can e-mail me the manual. We placed the screen house over a picnic table at the campsite and it did a fairly good ozark trail chairs job of keeping insects out while we were eating. Wasn’t even able to get the tent set up in a mild wind… Continue reading Ozark Trail Camping Canopies & Shelters Mesh Screen for sale

Childhood memories of failures with Tinker Toys came flooding back. But, with determined hope, I began to wade through the instructions. Now and then I walk into a store, it tends to be named ___Mart, and buy something I know is going to bring nothing but grief and heartbreak. ‘Insert the leg poles into the… Continue reading Ozark Trail Camping Canopies & Shelters Mesh Screen for sale
Ozark Trail Sun Shelter Camping Shelters and Tarps
It has survived some heavy downpours with no leaks. I bought this tent for light summer use because it was cheap and big enough to stand up in. Wal-mart does not sell this tent in the U.K., however another supermarket Tesco does, but not as an ‘Ozark Trail’. I found these reviews only after having… Continue reading Ozark Trail Sun Shelter Camping Shelters and Tarps
