What is a Good and Reliable Tent for Survival Preparedness

In order to achieve survival preparedness you must have reliable shelter. Tents work well as emergency shelter as they are easy to carry and set up, and can be very effective in keeping you warm and dry.

The Coleman SunDome 7-Foot by 7-Foot 3-Person Dome Tent is a great tent for survival preparedness. This tent has all of the standard tent features and more. It has-


-Mesh vent for ventilation
-Rainfly that covers the door and windows
-Poles are shock-corded for easier setup
-Cool-Air™ port, a small opening at the bottom of the tent with which you can access your gear or adjust the ventilation
-Heavy-duty welcome mat, privacy windows, pole sleeves, pin and ring, and insta clip hooks
-Coleman sews the instructions into the tent carry bag so you won't lose them
-Separate storage bags for the tent, poles, and stakes




Coleman also has what they call the WeatherTec System which guarantees that you will stay dry. This Weathertec system includes a waterproof floor, strong, weather-resistant fabric, inverted seams to prevent leaking through the seams,zipper cuffs, which cover and protect the zippers from leaks, and a strong frame design to help withstand winds.

One user gave it a five star review on Amazon.com saying,

"I just came back from a two week trip where I had to use this coleman tent. It rained hard for 5 days, even snowed a little, and the winds were up to 30 mph, yet my tent stayed dried on the inside, and stayed up inspite of the wind! This tent performed as advertised, and I would recommend it to anyone."
