Screen tents are a great way to enjoy the outdoors while avoiding things like flying insects, too much sun, or a quick rainstorm. These portable camping tents can be packed away in a special bag when they are not needed. This makes them easy to carry on camping trips or sporting events.
Screen tents are generally bottomless and depending on the style of the tent, the bottom edges may not lay flat against the ground when erected. This can be an issue because bugs can still make their way inside, as well as the rain. Tents should be evaluated carefully and purchased to fit each individual’s needs. The tents are also not meant to withstand powerful winds, thunder storms or torrential downpours. Although some of the higher quality camping tents can withstand brief wind gusts without sustaining any serious damage.
The screen tents are available in several sizes and styles. One of the most standard sizes is a ten foot by ten foot square. This allows is plenty of room for a four person table and chair set or a picnic table. Screen tents typically have an average height of at least seven feet, but most are closer to eight feet, allowing plenty of room for even the tallest person. One of the more common styles of screen tents is the typical square shape. Some hexagon or octagon style tents are available.
Screen tents vary in quality. The more durable tents that can withstand wind and rain will cost more. If a person is looking for a standard screen tent for normal weather conditions the low cost ones are suitable. Coleman is a popular camping brand that is known for their reasonable prices and quality products. They offer a number of different styles of screen tents. Eureka is another tent company that manufactures a number of high quality screen tents. They are made with sturdy materials that will hold up during heavy rains.
The tents can typically be erected by two people. Depending on the size of the screen tent and the number of poles involved, set up time is usually around 20 minutes. The more times it is put up the easier it tends to get. As with any tent, it should be completely dry before rolling up and packing away. This includes the poles and stakes. Moisture contributes to the deterioration of the tent materials. Depending on usage and the quality, screen tents can be expected to last approximately five to ten years.
