Upon closer examination of the newer tent I observed a dramatic compromise in the material and the quality of this tent, compared to my older Ozark. Thinking that the lighter fabric used was due to technological ozark trail table advancements, I dismissed the notion that it was an inferior tent. Well, I’m not sure what to do I’ll start looking for a used waterproof tent. Poles are reported by other reviewers to break/snap easily.
The Tungsten’s two brow poles create an especially effective awning over the tent door, so very little water gets in when someone comes or goes. Our only quibble with the Mineral King 3 is that it comes with only six stakes. (Our runner-up pick comes with eight.) Six is enough to secure the tent and fly but not to fully secure the tent’s extra lines in very windy conditions. This shouldn’t be an issue in most situations, but if you’re headed into a particularly windy place or simply want some backup, we suggest picking up four extra tent stakes at your local outdoor shop or online. These inexpensive stakes are comparable to the ones that accompany the Mineral King 3; these slightly more expensive stakes will serve you well in any car-camping terrain. Temperatures ranged from the 50s at night to the 80s during the day.
Digging our toes in the sand under one of the best full-overhead coverage beach tents on the market. A frequent reader of our site put the lightweight Cool Cabana pop up beach canopy to the test during a West Coast vacation.

Only to have my suspicions confirmed by other reviews that this tent is not water resilliant and can barely withstand a breeze. Unfortunately, I do have puddles and moisture in the tent when it rains (not terrifically waterproof). Check out attached link and look at the slant leg pop up.
Is Walmart’s Ozark Trail brand a true sleeper, putting out products that deserve much more attention among outdoorsmen? With that question being floated, we decided to travel down the path of discovery and start to take a closer look at Ozark Trail and some of their products. We just completed a review of the Ozark Trail Tumbler line, which is not only budget friendly but also well performing. I bought the first one right before the 4th of July.
This cooler has a number of features that you would find on more expensive coolers and a few that you won’t find. Cooler’s have become somewhat of a status symbol in the outdoors and many equate the bigger brands with better quality. A higher price tag should mean a higher quality product, right? No, that ozark trail chair is not always the case and any outdoorsmen, gear junkie, or general abuser of products will tell you the same thing. Every so often a brand will fly under the radar producing products that are not only a great value but also great quality as well. I took my two oldest boys on a Cub Scout camping trip.
Ozark Trail canopy tents can come with a variety of different wall panel configurations, including all netting, all sunscreen and any combination of the two. Common features include one wall with a zipper to allow passage once all walls have been lowered and secured in place, a screen for movie projection and hanging storage shelves. The tent is open at the top with a weather rain fly that fits over the dome.
It rained so hard that, initially, we considered backing out. Any water that made it into the tent did so before the rain fly was attached. I had no problems with leaking after the fly was put on. We just bought this tent over the weekend and put it up. I really liked the way it looked and the space but will not be able to use it due to the leaks. One thing we love about Ozark Trail canopy tents are the accessories that can be added to the shelters.
That mesh also keeps the tent feeling airy and cool in hot climates. The Wireless 6’s drawbacks have mainly to do with material quality. These can be as strong, or even more so, than aluminum poles (especially cheap ones), but they’re always bulkier, heavier, and not as nice to handle. However, the Wireless 6’s poles were the best fiberglass ones we tested—they left no splinters, unlike those on the Camp Creek 6 or the Copper Canyon LX 6.
And you have to make sure that the zipper is closed well and also sprayed with a water repellent. But unfortunately, they are many morons out there that don’t know the first thing about camping. The only place I put up the tent was in the backyard. We must have had some wind but not tornado force/ hurricane force winds.
