Rei co-op base camp 6 review: All-Weather, all-season family tent

As my wife And I had children, one of the first things we did A larger tent. Fifteen years ago was the rice kingdom of Rei the most beautiful car camping tent. This tent is still strong over the years (a friend CAMPT in camping), but it turned out that we never really needed the whole room. I would happily exchange this room for a little more strength in stormy weather, which seemed to find me again and again when camping, and a smaller footprint that will fit more.

This is exactly what Reis Base Camp 6 tent offers. It is smaller in the entire habitat overall than the kingdom 6, but in my tests it kept much better in the wind and yet big enough to comfortably sleep five.

Before I immerse yourself in the base camp, I should note that the kingdom no longer does 6, but is something nearby Wonderland 6What is an option that I will discuss in the end. I decided to replace the space for the stronger design of the base camp. I also like that the square shape of the base bearing fits better in smaller campsites.

The Rei Co-OP Base Camp Tent is available in four-person and six-person sizes. I tested the base camp 6, which I would say that it sleeps comfortably five adults and is almost perfect for two adults, two teenagers and a 10-year-old. The specifications of Rei claim that 84.3 square meters of interior on the inside, which is almost exactly average compared to the rest of the family camping tents in our guide for a six-person tent. Technically, you can fit six sleeping plates, but it becomes tight, which is pretty much the same for the course with tents. If you want a better daily life experience, up to at least one person who is larger than their actual group size.

One thing that has the base camp that makes the feeling of being more livable is a variety of bags and ceiling hooks to save clothes and equipment out of the way. There are 14 mesh packages around the tent (more or less the entire lower part of the tent is stitch bags). If you keep things neat and organized, life in a tent gets better.

There are two huge doors with full zippers so that you can open it completely when you load things in. The top of the tent is a stitch, and there are two triangular stitches and stitch plates on the doors on both sides of the tent. All of this can be closed with zippers with the exception of the roof, which is only a network. All ventilation options combine this into a great tent for warmer nights because there is a way to get the air in motion, regardless of the way the wind blows. Even if it is still dead, it is nice to know that some heat escapes from the tip of the tent. There are also ventilation slots in the rainfall that can be opened openly to enable child’s play even during a storm.
