Coleman Elite Montana Tent

Coleman 16X7 Elite Montana 8 Person with LED Tent

By: Camping Guidance

This review of the Coleman Elite Montana 8-Person Tent covers its performance in both light and heavy rain. In light rain, the sunshade over the porch area managed to protect items from getting wet, and not much water dripped onto the mesh windows. All the seams and fabric were dry from the inside after the rain stopped 15 minutes later. In heavy rain, the tent was still completely dry after 10 minutes, but a little bit of water started leaking into the tent after 20 minutes. The main leak was through the seam connecting the tent body to the bathtub flooring, which was not covered by the rainfly. The green fabric at the bottom of the tent was damp after 15 minutes of heavy rain, and the rainfly was slightly damp. The door mesh panel was slightly wet at the bottom, and items in the porch area were getting wet. Overall, the Coleman Montana 8-Person Tent is great in light rain, but not so much in heavy rain.

In conclusion, the Coleman Elite Montana 8-Person Tent is great in light rain, but not so much in heavy rain. If expecting heavy rain, it is recommended to seal the seam connecting the tent body to the bathtub flooring, and not put any important gear in the porch area. The sunshade over the porch area managed to protect items from getting wet, and not much water dripped onto the mesh windows in light rain. In heavy rain, the tent was still completely dry after 10 minutes, but a little bit of water started leaking into the tent after 20 minutes.
