Buying another one, September 4, 2008
By gschrimp from wisconsin

"Last year I purchased a Trekker backpacking tent for a motorcycle trip for myself and an 8' x8' Trekker tent for family use. We finally got around to using the 8' x 8' this past week-end. All I can say is WOW!!! I would never have believed this large a tent could be put up in about 10 minutes using only 6 stakes including the anchors for the rain canopy. We unrolled it, staked the corners, put together the poles and up it went. I was extremely impressed by the tent bottom which looks like it would keep you dry in a monsoon. The overall quality was excellent and everything fit as it should.

Tear down was a breeze too. It only took a few minutes and easily fit back into its carrying bag with room left over for a mallet.

I was so impressed I purchased a 7' x 7' model to replace the backpacking tent I used on motorcycle trips. With only 3 pounds added wieght it will give me a substantial amount of extra headroom and is actually quicker to set up.

I beleive this tent is an extraordinary value for the $$$."

Nice little tent, October 19, 2009
By Donkey55 from Northern California

"This is a nice little tent for one or two people. It goes up really easily and goes back into the carry bag just as nicely. A good value for the price."

Trekker Classic Dome Tent, August 10, 2009
By KarlInCalif from California Sierra mountains

"This large, light weight dome tent is perfect for weekend applications and short trips in fair weather. It is tall enough that you can stand inside of it, and large enough for a queen sized air mattress and sleeping bags. It is perfect as a base camp tent for car camping or hunting."

great value, August 8, 2009
By sulla from New Mexico

"Just used this tent in the 10x10 version on a five day pack trip in the Pecos Wilderness. It was very easy to set up(requires 2 people) and was quite spacious for three campers and would be comfortable for four. It held up well on the one day we had rain and high winds- no leaks or problems( I did seal the seams prior to the trip). The only downside is the cheap tent stakes as mentioned by other reviewers. I had good ones from a previous tent and used those. This tent is a great deal."

The EASY tent!, July 18, 2009
By Lillekari

"We had this tent for about 5 years with neither a leak nor a tear. It pops up in minutes. I hated to get rid of it, but with the birth of our fourth child we just couldn't all fit in it anymore! For 2-4 people this is the PERFECT tent!"

good tent, July 14, 2009
By 3TDSD from Northeast, SD

"Good Family Tent! I have slept in the tent for 5 nights so far and one of theose nights included a 3/4 inch rain. We have had no leaks and all of there gear stayed dry. Pleanty of room for a family of 5 with two cots and a queen air bed and a hunting dog. The only problem is a small rain flap over the zipper gets cought in the zipper from time to time, but the rain flap is a good addition. I would suggest the tent for general family use in the Spring, Summer and Fall."

trekker Classic Dome Tent, July 12, 2009
By ghlyuytewed

"Last year we went to alaska for an ice fishing trip for northern pike. The first night had -40 degree weather and the wind was moderate with snow storms and the tents poles collapsed and ripped the zipper. The entire front side of this tent ripped into a 2 and a half foot tear. I DO NOT LIKE THIS TENT AT ALL"

Good overall tent, July 1, 2009
By MikieL from Pennsylvania

"I bought 10' x 10' version of this tent for fair weather camping to replace our cabin tent which was simply too big and difficult to set up with two people.
It is very roomy for two people it was a breeze to set up and take down. It fits in the bag! I did not try but even a single person could most likely set it up in few minutes.
During a week long stay we went thrugh few nasty thunderstorms and an afternoon of steady rain. The tent held up just fine with no leaks. The fly extensions over windows allow them to be at least patially open without letting in the rain.
The only negative thing I have noticed is the fact that it flexes a lot in the strong wind. I had to extend the fly ropes all the way out and still during strong wind the tent looked like it was collapsing under wind pressure. It did however returned to it's normal shape when the wind subsided.

I'm gonna try this tent in the fall with some cots set up inside to see how things work out..."

Leaks-a-lot, June 29, 2009
By AvidMNOutdoorsman from Avid Minnesota Outdoorsman

"We purchased the Modified Dome Tent version of this and were very disapointed in its performance. The tent was nice sized and was easy to assemble but, it leaked the first night we used it. At first we were grateful we brought the air mattress because it kept us off the floor of the tent and dry; but with the amount of water leaking in, we became afraid we might float away. To add insult to injury, the zipper broke first thing the next morning. I have to hand it to Cabelas though. They stand behind the products they sell and took good care of us upon returning it."

Great Value, June 1, 2009
By CristinO from New Castle, CO

"For the money you cant go wrong with this tent. It goes up in about a minute with only two poles to worry about. The second night we used this tent it POURED on us and we stayed dry. I would like to be able to review this tent again in a year so I can have used it a full season to see if the zippers hold out. They seem sturdy enough, but I just can't believe a tent this cheap will be 100% perfect, but so far it is!"

Dome Tent, May 26, 2009
By shlotkey from Franklin, IN

"We went camping for seven day in the Ouachita Forest, Arkansas. The tent went up very easy. The size of the tent was perfect of all of our gear and king size air mattress. We had a bad thunder storm with high winds on our second night and the tent did not leak a single drop!"

excellent waterproofing, May 19, 2009
By fairweathercamper from Potomac, MD

"I purchased this tent thinking I would only use it on balmy, sunny weekends--but last weekend my family was caught in a huge downpour. It rained all night, but inside the tent stayed completely dry. Some friends with far more expensive tents had drips and leaks. This is a great value."

Better than Expected, May 5, 2009
By Boatswain from Middle Tennessee

"I was looking for a tent that I could "make do with" and ended up with a tent I enjoy and have used in good and bad weather. (Trekker Classic Dome Tent 7' X 7') Last weekend with 14 scout leaders, I was one of only three totally dry adults.

Had heard that the zippers were a problem with this tent, but have had no difficulty over 7 nights of heavy use. Even the carry bag zipper, which has been given a real challenge (my impatience in bagging the tent in a storm) has worked without complication.

The only problem I have encountered is that the tent does not block out the snoring sound from the tent next to me. Oh well, what can I expect for what I consider a cheap price. Life does have it's challenges!"

Easy Tent, April 28, 2009
By TroopMom from West Palm Beach, FL

"I recently purchased this tent to downsize, I love it. The 2 pole assembly is what sold me on this tent, I can put it up in several minutes day or night. It fits my inflatable twin airmattress, my gear and I still have room leftover. My use is for Boy Scouting it fits on the bottom of my backpack so it's not bulky to carry, but if you are a 6ft. tall male you may find it a disadvantage not to be able to staand up in it. I love it, thanks Cabela's!"

Great tent!!, January 2, 2009
By jenna513 from California, KY

"We bought this tent as a X-mas present for our kids. We set it up in the basement to make sure all the parts were there. I set it up by myself in a short time. We won't know the full extent of the quality until we use it this summer."

Fast, easy, efficient, November 7, 2008
By Survivorman22

"This tent worked great for a weekend camping trip. My friend and I got to the site well after dark, and neither of us had ever set up this tent before. We had it up in less than 15 minutes. The poles are connected to the tent by a series of hooks which allow for quick easy set up. The interior is very spacious, I'm 6'1 and had plenty of room to stretch out. The two of us and all of our equipment fit comfortably inside. It says that it is a three person tent, but you could comfortably get four people inside. The most difficult part was getting the tent completely back inside the bag when the weekend was over. It needs to be rolled very tightly, and make sure to roll the rain fly up with the tent. I am very satisfied with this product and highly recommend it."
