This has got to be the perfect tent.
This is my second Copper Canyon. So, here we go. I have heard and seen comments about the material of the floor. I can’t totally disagree. But I have owned two of these and I have never had a problem with the floor. I have also ..except for a minute here or there to set things up… never actually directly set foot on the floor of my tent. And the bottom of my tent has never directly touched the ground. My tent always sits on a ground sheet. And I always put a 10 x 10 tarp on the floor of the tent as soon as I open the door after I set it up.Warning about ground sheet/footprint: This tent has what is called a bathtub floor. Although it is a 10 x 10 tent if you go by common wisdom and buy a 9.5 x 9.5“ ground sheet or footprint you’re going to end up with problems. You will end up with water between your footprint in the bottom of your tent, and this will cause you some condensation and other problems Your ground sheet needs to be no more than 9 x 9. Mine is 8.5 x 8.5. If you don’t understand the concept of a bathtub floor, I don’t want to get into it here. Other than to strongly advise you to not buy the footprint for this tent and to create a ground sheet that is no more than the dimensions I mentioned.Inside. The floor of this tent is 10 x 10. When you are standing up in this tent at nose level if you look around the tent, it has only slanted into about 9 1/2 x 9 1/2. The walls are virtually straight. So basically you have a 10 x 10 bedroom. Most people don’t have 10 x 10‘ of uncluttered unused space in their bedrooms at home. We have furniture, we have beds, etc., etc.I use this tent by myself with my 80 pound dog. I think it’s good for two people. I think that the rating tent makers give up as far as how many people their tents are meant for are hilarious.There is enough room in the tent so that with my mattress on the floor, my dog‘s pretty pretty big bed on the floor, there is still lots of room for me to sit inside with a side table without feeling claustrophobic if it’s raining outside. If you have one of those chairs with foot extensions, you’re more than fit . If you are going camping for a couple of days, maybe three or four and don’t wanna bother putting up a rain canopy. You will love this tent. It is so roomy inside.There is an opening for an electrical cord. I use this tent in temperatures as low as the mid 30s at campgrounds where I have electrical hook ups. I use safe space heaters. And there are such things. Do you keep this in mind: the top of the tent is screened. It’s meant that way so condensation gets out. If you’re going to use it in the winter time, make sure you take a tarp and throw it over the top of the tent.This can be set up by one person. You’ll have a little trouble getting the fly over the top. A great hint/work around is this: Each guy ropes for the rain fly stuff into a little pocket. Put a rock in the pockets. It gives you enough weight to throw the tarp over the top. This is my second copper Canyon. My understanding is they discontinued this tent and the newer version is about $150 more. I have taken a look at it on multiple websites and I absolutely do not see anything is worth an additional 25 bucks let alone 150. It is virtually the same tech with a new name. If you’re able to get your hand on one of these I suggest you buy it. If you’re looking at this review because you’re looking to buy a used one from someone. Set it up. Make sure it is in good shape. And buy it before someone else does.I’ve also seen where people say it doesn’t hold up to wind. I use it to camp on top of the Blue Ridge Parkway. There’s a campground on top of Mount Pisgah. When it rains there, it rains pretty hard. I’ve never had a problem. I will say that over the years. I have had to use a towel to wipe up a little bit of water that gets in when I open the door. I don’t wanna mislead you. I also see where people complain about the way the doors zip. With that, I agree. The doors can be a pain in the butt. However, like anything else you get used to it. They are certainly very, very, very far from being a dealbreakerAll in all, this is an amazing tent. You are basically bringing a 10 x 10 bedroom with you.

Perfect family car camping tent
This is a great tent. I did a lot of research before I got a new larger tent and this is the one I landed on, super happy I did.Note: you should buy upgraded stakes (this seams to be a common issue with all tents). I use these.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FLZ5Z5H/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_imm_9ZDDYG7BM91801WAXBJ6Doesn’t come with a foot print so I got these tarp that works perfect.Canvas Tarps Truck Tarp Waterproof UV Resistant 10 OZ Heavy Duty Tarpaulin Cover for Car Boat Camping Firewood Woodpile, 10×12 Feet https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P2X4PLD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_81W7A852039WZS8M2661?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1I also really like using a camping rug on the floor to add warmth, protect the floor from cot feet, round out any random rocks and help control dust and sand. I got two of the Nemo Victory blankets in XL.This tent is large enough for 2 Teton Outfitter XXL and 1 Teton Camp Cot.Pro’s vs other 8 man tents I researched: center “room separator” is not attached and can be removed when you are using it has one tent. Has two large doors. Windows are easy to close to block the wind. Rain fly doesn’t cover windows but dose keep even heavy rain out. Guy lines have built in stronger pockets for easy easy packing.Cons: the rain fly has awning that projects out over the door way. There is only one awning and only one of the doors has the points to connect the awning. So you have to make sure the tent is set up with the proper door acting as the “front door”.The guy lines are very strong, we slept through a rain storm with 45 mph wind gusts (upgraded stakes) with no issues. However, the guy line tensioners are plastic and hard to pull when the line is already under tension, plus I had to re-tie a few because the knot pulled through the hole. While the lines are orange and easy to see in daylight they are not reflective and will disappear under red light at night. I suggest replacing the guys with reflective upgrades that are either tied with a tautline hitch or use an aluminum tensioner.Overall this is a great tent for a family or a trio on cots who plans on car camping.

Nice, but not heavy duty
I like this tent. It’s nice, but thin. Not at all the same quality as the big green goddess Eureka I had in the 90’s. This one held up to modest rain, but I’m not confident about it for shelter in a hard rain, wind storm or hail. I will say it has a generous bag. It’s the only tent I’ve ever owned that really fit back in the bag.
