Grab your Instant Up Silver 6P Tent from Coleman here:

When you haven’t got time to fuss about at the campsite, the easy to pitch and super affordable Coleman Instant Up Silver 6P tent is just what the doctor ordered.

With a steel all-in-one frame and inner, it’s super easy to use even for beginners, so watch on for a demonstration from our gear expert Ben, who shows you how it’s done in this video.

He starts off by showing you what you get inside the bag, how to gently fold the tent out and position it on your groundsheet, tips for setting up in the wind, whether you should upgrade the pegs, and setting it up with just one person.

After it’s all set up, he also demonstrates how to pack it back down carefully and efficiently to get it ready to put back in the carry bag – so check it out above!

G'day everyone!
Wanna see all the features of the Coleman Instant Up Silver 6P Tent?

[KactusHugger]

Thank you! You saved my sanity and my Coleman Instant Tent 8P from the dumpster. I was having a horrible time getting the tent back in the bag. I would get it as close to in the bag as I could, and throw it in the back of my truck to deal with when I got home.

Can you teach us how to do it with the red one

[keeganjacobs]

Appreciate the step by step install and camera zooming in is a bonus, thank you

I wish you had spent more time showing how to get it back in the bag. You kind of skipped over after you flattened out the tent fabric. I found it difficult to get the tent back into the bag on my first attempt.

Hey mate, just wondering what floor mesh you used?? Is it the one specifically made for the 6p or something else, thanks

[jackknifer]

This video is golden, thank you so much for the info!

[lindarojas]

Thanks for the video mate! I was having difficulty with putting the tent away and it helped a lot to know about the flattening and right way to put it away.

Take off the big white label, it adds room to the bag.

I wish I could find your rain fly, mine is only the roof. I don’t understand why they wouldn’t sell it separately, my tent looks identical.

Great video mate, is it important to use a fly sheet, I bought a tent second hand and they gave me the wrong fly sheet 🤦

[georgecataulin]

Hi, do you have link to purchase the rainfly?

[tylerthompson]

What rain fly is this? Where can I purchase this? The only rain fly I've been able to find for this tent is a 1/3 or half rain fly that only really covers the roof. Which leaves windows and doors exposed
