Steven Nielsen asked:
Start your holiday and go camping…
Nowadays, there are variations of camping tents. There are tents for one person, tents for two people, and tents for entire families. You could choose camping tents based on your budget . One place you should look at when you try to find camping tents is Walmart camping tents.
Good camping tents would have room for chatting , preparing and sleeping . That will be great to have your own rooms and you should never get difficulties to buy that nowadays. Tents that have private rooms for doing your activities are good for camping. If you add the screen tent, you will have a nice little campsite .
Family Camping Tents
Type and size of family camping tents required will depend on the size of the family that will be using it. The thing to remember about tents is that the size is stated by the number of people who can fit comfortably inside, with no additional items inside. A two-person tent for instance, can hold two people in sleeping bags, with everything else they brought with them left outside.
Family tents should be more permanently than individual tents. It may not be ideal if the plan involves setting up a different campsite every day if you use family tents. They are great for temporary shelter for a few days, but can be heavy and inconvenient to set up and tear down on a daily basis. They are usually used in campsites for families spending a few days at the mountain, lake or village.
Camping Air Mattress
Air Mattress also one thing to be considered. When going camping, always plan on how the camping air mattress will be inflated. Not all air mattresses is completed with air compressors. Always remember to bring air compressors for just that reasons. Besides, lugging a large air mattress to the dedicated compressor and back can be a trial of its own. Having a foot pump makes inflating a camping air mattress easier and will not require someone to manually inflate one by blowing into it for hours.
Walmart Camping Tents
Walmart is one of online store with great camping tents variation. You can view many tents, starting from the Coleman, Aerobeds and others. You can also choose to buy individual tents or family tents.
Individual tents are so compact that they do not take up any space at all when traveling. They are great for hikers because they fold down small enough to fit on top or on the bottom of your backpack. These camping tents do come in handy for many different things.
Family tents for sure is bigger than individual tents. Three separate rooms allow children to sleep in their own area while the parents sleep in the larger middle section.
The thing everyone needs to remember about camping tents, including Walmart camping tents, is that must be dry before putting away. If they are not dry, it will caused small leaks throughout the tent. Camping tents can become covered with mildew and the mold and mildew can eat right through the canvas or nylon.
The material of which family camping tents are made should also be considered, as may of the new tents are designed to be tear resistant as well as waterproof. Despite what the weather report claims, it is always best to plan for the worst and enjoy the great weather when it comes.

Chris H asked:
The “durable” frame of my Eureka Solitaire has snapped. I love the tent, but need to replace one of the poles in order to use it again. I believe the poles are 6.3mm fiberglass. Any idea where I can find them?

Farah asked:
I need a tent that will keep my baby enclosed in its bassinet and keep my curious kitty out. I have found tents that fit cribs and play yards but none to fit a bassinet like the “Eddie Bauer Musical Rocking Bassinet” (about 15″ wide and 28″ long)…any advice?

Choosing the Right Tent
Filed Under tents | Leave a Comment
Camping Now asked:
When you’re camping, your tent is the most important piece of equipment. Without a tent, you are nothing! You need one that will keep you dry and warm (but not too warm). There are a huge huge range ot there on the market and it can be difficult deciding what to buy but here are a few tips to help you on your way.
There are so many different tents oit there on the market that it may be difficult to know where to start. from a simple one person tent which will fit easily into your rucksack, right up to an eight berth monster, with all mod cons including spa pool and massage table ok, perhaps that’s a bit far but you get the idea!). As with everything camping related, your tent needs to fit the purpose that you’ll be using it for. If you will be carrying the tent in a rucksack, then the weight and dimensions when packed are very important. If you are camping with the family, you may want something with seperate bedroom areas for privasy. All of these details can be found within the information of the packaging or from the shop when you buy your tent.
Tents will be labelled ‘one person’, ‘two person’ etc, but you should always check the actual dimensions as classifications can differ between manufacturers. You should also pay attention to how much space there is in the living area and what the height of the tent is (ie, can you stand up). Below is a summary of the different types of tents you might choose.
Frame Tents: These have the best headroom and are useful for families, and those who plan to cook inside the tent. The disadvantage of frame tents is that they are havy and difficult to carry, so only suitable if you are travelling by car (and have a few people to hep you put it up). Frame tents are becoming less popular in favour of the more fashioable and lightweight Dome Tents.
Ridge Tent: This is a triangular shaped tent, the more tradiditonal one that you are used to seeing. You rarely see this around nowadays, and again have given way to the more modern dome tents.
Dome Tents: A dome shaped tent, very simple to erect and very lightweight. The flexible poles thread through the tent fabric criss corssing in the middle. The poles are normally made of reinforced plastic or a metal alloy. Dome tents can range from a very compact one or two man right up to a family sized tent with room to stand. They are relatively inexpensive and due to the compact size when packed they are very easy to transport. higher dome tents are more vulnerable in high winds than a frame tent so care should be taken in poor weather.
Hoop Tents: These are a cross betwen a ridge and dome tent. They are strong with room inside, they can be multiple hoop, also known as a tunnel tent, or single hoop which is lighter weight and easier to carry. Hoop tents are often favoured by mountain climbers because of their strngth in high winds and extreme conditions.
Geodesic Tents: A geodesic tent is similar to a Dome tent, but with a slightly different structure which gives them greater strength in high winds. Often slightly more expensive than a standard dome tent.
Vis-a-vis: Tents with sleeping areas on either side of the main central area. These are genrally dome style noeadays but you do ocassionally see a ridge style vis-a-vis tent.
Touring Tents: Touring tents can be extended ridge tents or extended dome tents. They normally have a porch area, which is very useful for cooking, (although goking in tents should only be done if it is safe to do so, and you should consult the manufacturr if you aren’t sure). Touring tents often have windows and are the tent of choice for people who spend long periods camping.
Most tents have 2 layers. The first a breathable ‘inner’ providing warmth and keeping the insects off, while the ‘outer’ fysheet or ’skin’ is the waterproof layer that goes on the outside. Having a two layer structure also prevents moisture and condensation building up. These layers can be made from a wide range of materials, the higher end of the price range tends to be the best insulated, most breathable and best quality and would be advised for extreme weather conditions. The higher price ranges will also be home to tents with the best quality seams and zips as these are often the first things to go.
The strength of the poles is an important factor if you want your tent to last. Modern tents are extremely lightweight but you can often tell the difference between poor quality and good quality poles. As a rule, you generally get what you pay for. If you are using your tent to go to a festival and don’t tend to do much else with it, then you can pick up a 2 man tent from about £25. If you are looking for something that you can use a few times of year in all conditinos, then prices can go up to about £500 for the top quality tents.
Whatever your choice, remember to allow anough space for your stuff. A 2 man tent is often big enough for 2 people but if you both have big rucksacks or equipment, you might be better thinking about a larger tent to allow for this

Hi,
Hi,
My wedding is in August and I have a 40 x 60 tent, my Aunt rented bulb lights for the tent… however, I would rather use a ton of chinese lanterns. Does anyone have any ideas for stringing them? I planned on buying LED lights, because we don’t want to have to run a generator. Any suggestions? Anyone know where I can buy them in bulk?
Thank for any information you can give me.

How to find a good tent for camping?
Filed Under tents | 4 Comments
cottonlily84 asked:
I want a tent to take camping. I’d like to go to the beach, mountains, state parks, etc. One thing I worry about is rain. I’ve heard you can’t get a true waterproof tent for a reasonable price, only water resistant. I don’t want to spend $300 on a tent that I may not use that much. I just need enough room for a full size air mattress and to change clothes. Any suggestions? Oh, and it has to be one I can set up by myself.

I have a sport backpack, which is not designed for hiking.
I am trying to figure out how I can carry my tent on my backpack and how to get a sleeping bag attached to my back too.
Can I use straps or bungee cords? Do I need to buy a special backpack for all of this? I can’t find anything on this on the internet.
I have to bring both the tent and the sleeping bag or I will freeze in October.
