I bought this tent with family trips and weekend camping with friends in mind, and I have to admit that the BlackOut Bedroom technology makes a huge difference. The sleeping area is very well darkened, so the morning sun does not wake you at dawn, and on hot days the interior warms up more slowly. Another major advantage is the spacious porch area with a groundsheet and windows – you can easily store shoes, larger rucksacks, or a camping table there, and during rain it provides very good shelter. The igloo-style construction with an additional pole in the porch section stands up well to wind, and the waterproof flysheet proved itself even during an all-night downpour – the inside remained completely dry. Pitching the tent itself is simple and takes around a dozen minutes. As for the weaker points, with four adults and a large amount of luggage in the sleeping area, it may be a little too cramped. It is best suited to a family of 2+2 or to three adults who want more freedom of movement. When packed, the tent is also quite heavy (over 7 kg) and fairly bulky, so it is more suitable for transport by car than for carrying in a rucksack. On colder nights, when the porch area is closed, condensation may also appear on the flysheet. To sum up: this is an excellent, solidly made camping tent. The darkened sleeping area and large porch area clearly increase comfort. It is definitely worth recommending!
Coleman Darwin 4 Plus BlackOut 4-person tent
A dome tent with a spacious vestibule, designed for four people. The stable igloo construction is supported by a lightweight yet durable fiberglass frame. Thanks to the Easy Set Up system, pitching is quick and hassle-free.
Large vestibule, numerous pockets, ventilation openings
The model combines a four-person bedroom with a large vestibule, providing space for storing luggage or relaxing. The interior walls are equipped with practical pockets and compartments for small items. Curtainable windows and ventilation openings ensure adequate air flow and comfort on warmer days.
Integrated BlackOut Bedroom technology
The built-in BlackOut Bedroom technology reduces daylight in the bedroom by up to 99%, which promotes rest even after sunrise. A special material regulates the temperature inside the tent – during the day it maintains a temperature about 5 deg. C lower, and at night it increases thermal comfort by up to 1 deg. C compared to the environment. This makes sleep more stable and independent of external conditions.
Waterproof flysheet, taped seams, fire-resistant coating
The polyester flysheet with a water resistance of 4500 mm/m2 and taped seams guarantees effective protection against rain and moisture. Fire Retardant coating reduces the material's susceptibility to fire, while UV-reflective coating increases comfort during strong sun exposure. Stabilizing sleeve improves the rigidity of the structure in windy conditions, and a special cable opening allows for easy power supply to the interior.
