Dome Camping
Most people have no idea what they want or need when purchasing a family camping tent. I have previously given tips on some steps to take in selecting family camping tents, but I would like to expand upon my advice and explain the different styles. There are many styles of to choose from, but for the purpose of selecting a family camping tent I will cover the most popular and the easiest to find. There are three styles of tents I will discuss. The most common styles are dome tents, cabin tents, and A-frame tents.
Dome tents are by far the most common tent you will find when looking. Dome tents are typically held up by two poles crossed in the form of an X bent to reach and attach to all four corners on the ground. These tents allow for more head room than most styles, but do slope inward on the sides. Dome tents are great for windy conditions because of their frame strength and are also great for repelling snow. A great example of a dome tent is the Coleman Sundome tent. The Coleman Sundome is an affordable way to go for your weekend camper on a budget.
Cabin tents are typically much larger tents, have a more complex frame, and have vertical walls for more space . Cabin tents are intended for car camping or large family camping when weight is not a concern. They are great for larger families or extended camping trips where more space would be nice. They are heavier because of the extra fabric and more difficult to assemble, but are great when space is needed. An example of a popular is the Eureka Copper Canyon.
A-frame tents are also a very common design and are frequently used by Boy Scouts. A-frame tents use two poles on each end in the shape of a A held together by a ridge pole. These tents don't have much head space because of the aggressive slope of the walls, but they do save a lot of weight and space when in the bag. These are typically used for backpacking tents where space and weight is important. These tents are not as wind resistant, but are great for mild weather camping. A great example of a popular A-frame tent is the Eureka Timberline.
I personally recommend Coleman and Eureka if you are on a budget and looking for discount camping tents. Both brands offer all the styles I mentioned for tent. They offer large tents such as the Eureka Pine Lodge, Eureka Copper Canyon, and the Coleman Sundome. If you are looking for a little lighter weight, and more flexible tent you might consider the Eureka Timberline.

Tent poll missing elastic?
I was recently given an American Camper dome tent and the elastic cord in one of the poll sets has been disconnected and cut short. I could not find the american camper website and was wondering if they were under another company or if there was somewhere else I could go to replace the poll.
you can get replacement poles at WalMart..thats their brand....they are cheap and easier than replacing the elastic
