Budget minded tents?

[GummyMonster]

Good day,
I'm in the market for a couple 3 person tents. And unfortunately, cost is a big factor right now. I just can't spend $600-$1000+ on a couple better quality ones.
Kind of looking at these coleman ones. https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/c...5066p.html#srp

They seem to be rated alright, the only complaints seem to be the zippers. And there's only a few complaints at all.
Car camping, so weight doesn't matter.
Heading out next week with the family for the first time in 7 years, so I'd like to avoid serious issues...
Thanks in advance, and any suggestions will be looked at.

I had a huuuuuge 10-person Coleman tent about 10 years ago and used it many times with no issues.

The zippers will be a weak point on all less-expensive tents, so take it easy on them and you should be happy.

Enjoy!

Ok not sure if you are looking for this but I have a Coleman 14x10 Galileo Domed tent. It says it sleeps 6. It is brand new still in it's original case. Never used. If you pm me and your cell number I can text you some pic's. Will take $50 for it. Like I said never used still in box and carry case. I will look in motor home cause I might have another smaller size one.

Nope guess I gave the other one away.

Where in North western alberta.? I'm in gp and have a few tents you could just borrow. Options are floorless tipi sleeps 3 adults. Large 8 man two room typical tent. And a few 2 man tents of different style. By borrowing you can decide if it's something you will repeat as a family without spending money. If it turns out great then you can set aside some cash for something that will fit your need.

Why do you want 2, 3 man tents?

[GummyMonster]

Thank you for the kind offers and info.
I've purchased a couple coleman tents that are on for a decent price.
And we need 2 tents because we have 3 teenagers.
My daughter and her friend are using a old but good pup tent, but I need a big one for my sons, who are both over 6'3" and big framed.
And my wife and I don't want to be crowded in our tent.
Again,
Thanks for the support.
