Great tent for the money
This is a review as well as some suggestions for the other reviewers.
1) The rainfly does cover the windows if you align it / center it correctly.
2) It has excellent vetntilation. The cealing does not have a closeable nylon covers inside the tent. This is because it is a 3 season tent. If you were able to close it to keep dust out you would find that the tent would be wet from condensation inside on the inside. So the cealing is mesh to let warm air and moisture excape...

For two, it's practically a portable hotel room!
My husband and I are occasional campers (1-3 times per year) and were looking for a tent that was tall enough to stand up in. I got a great price on this one and took a chance on it, after seeing it set up in a retail store.
First: Yes, the side windows are open when the rain fly is off, and that could pose a challenge for campers in state parks and the like, where privacy could be a concern. I bought a few yards of super-cheap, lightweight fabric (muslin), cut it to size, and clippe...

big design flaw
L. Allison is right on. The two "vents" inside the tent does not close. the rainfly keeps the rain from entering the vents but does not keep dust out. It was windy at our campsite. the wind was picking up dust. The wind would blow against the tent then fly up and directly through the vent. there were times when i come back and everything in my tent is cover with dust. i consider this a BIG DESIGN FLAW and will not recommend this tent. If the people at Coleman get in their right mind and ...

Coleman SunDome Tent
The tent is easy to set up, bears plenty of height and floor space and provides nice ventilation.

Terrible Tent
This was our second of two attempts to buy a coleman tent. We were excited about the space of the 10 x 10 sundome. However, when we took it home and set it up, we discovered that the interior windows did not zip closed. This is a major problem because the rainfly does not completely cover the windows. Also, when we were setting up the tent, the rainfly was so thin that it ripped! We were so upset with this tent that we have decided not to purchase any more coleman tents in the future. We p...

Low end style 2-pole 'dome'
I purchased this 10x10 tent used at a Columbia Goodwill store in Oak Grove, Oregon for $8.99. It has some weak money-saving points, such as just two poles to hold up quite a bit of fabric and the woven plastic 'tarp' floor (which gives a plastically feeling and sound when walking on it). There is a lot of tension in the fabric pole sleeves, one of which had a two foot tear (which I sewed shut). The fly is a bit small as it only covers the tent partially, but would protect the ceiling from an ove...

Awesome tent for the money
My wife and I (plus Dalmation!) have now been camping in this tent three times in the Hill Country outside Austin in Texas. Twice we have experienced serious thunderstorms (and if you have been to Texas, you'll know that I am not exaggerating when I say they were bad) and have stayed dry both times. Also has excellent ventilation for the hot and humid weather here. Thoroughly recommend this tent for the money.

Nice tent
I love the size of this tent. My husband and I have 24" camp air matresses so there is lots of room for our clothes and for getting dressed. Can easily fit 3 persons plus clothes. It is definately a warm weather tent. The whole top and 2 sides are open screen covered only by the rain fly. There is a back sip up window and one on the front "door". Only dissapointment is there are no loops or anything to hang something inside the tent.

not enough coverage
I had one of these coleman 10x10. The fly does not cover all the mesh. I moved it around and around and still could see out of it. I did not have the tent out in rain or dust thankfully. I returned it to coleman. They were very nice about it and refunded purchase price with copy of the sales receipt. I'm still looking for another tent. I don't need all that room, and I definitely will look for better fly coverage.

Don't waste your money
Don't waste your time and money buying this tent. I was at the beach the wind was blowing and all the sand came into the tent, also it rained and the water leaks on the edges......better buy wenzel tents cheaper and better quality.
