Purchasing the Right Camping Tent

Looking to buy a camping tent? Yes, a discount store will have a cheap camping tent that you can purchase. But you may be less than satisfied with it when you actually take it out to the field. When you are deciding on purchasing a camping tent, there are a few types that you should consider. First, what kind of weather are you going to be camping in? If you plan on camping in cold inclement weather, a 3-season tent is probably not going to cut it. Conversely, if all you do is camp in the summer, you won’t need to buy an expensive 4-season tent either.

There are generally three types of camping tent classifications. The time of year and conditions the tent can be used is part of the rating for each.

All-season or convertible - these are used year round but despite the name do not perform well in harsh winter weather. Generally weight does not matter.

3 season - this tent works well in most all conditions with the exeption of harsh winter climates.

4 season - made for comfort in cold climates and inclimate weather.

Most camping tents are rated for three seasons which basically mean they are not great for winter camping. The 4-season camping tents are able to withstand the elements year round, but they will cost considerably more. 4 season tent are made for the harshest conditions and are light, small and typically very expensive.

You also have to consider the time of year you are camping. If you mostly camp in the summer you do not want to be inside a tent that is built to keep the elements out. All tents have some ventilation but those made for winter conditions are made to keep the heat in…not let it out like a summer weighted tent. 3 season camping tents are definitely better for warm to hot weather camping. They give more options for ventilation.

Many people are seduced by cheap camping tents. Budget constraints are understandable but the problem with cheap tents is they may not be very waterproof. The camping tent you choose should keep out tthe rain while allowing adequate ventilation to flow through.
