The innovative three-season, 14 x 10-foot Black Pine Turbo Tent provides an amazingly easy setup and the ability to sleep up to 10 adult campers. Setup takes just a few minutes, thanks to the patented design that keeps all poles together. Just pick your spot, pull the Turbo Tent out of its bag, grab hold of the four corners to lock the legs at the joints, then push the top up. The large center room can sleep 10, and it can be divided into two separate rooms for added functionality. The tent is made from PU-coated ripstop polyester/cotton canvas, has a sewn-in 210D PVC tub-style floor, and offers heat-taped seams for added protection. It's equipped with a large awning as part of the outer rain fly that offers extra shade and assures additional waterproof protection. Other features include a power inlet with retainer tabs, eight guy rope points with stow pockets on the fly, alloy knuckles and feet, steel-reinforced center hub, and a carry bag.

Selecting a Tent
Fortunately, there are all kinds of tents for weekend car campers, Everest expeditions, and everything in-between. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
Expect the Worst
In general, it's wise to choose a tent that's designed to withstand the worst possible conditions you think you'll face. For instance, if you're a summer car camper in a region where weather is predictable, an inexpensive family or all purpose tent will likely do the trick--especially if a vehicle is nearby and you can make a mad dash for safety when bad weather swoops in! If you're a backpacker, alpine climber or bike explorer, or if you like to car camp in all seasons, you'll want to take something designed to handle more adversity.
Three- and Four-Season Tents
For summer, early fall and late spring outings, choose a three-season tent. At minimum, a quality three season tent will have lightweight aluminum poles, a reinforced floor, durable stitching, and a quality rain-fly. Some three-season tents offer more open-air netting and are more specifically designed for summer backpacking and other activities. Many premium tents will feature pre-sealed, taped seams and a silicone-impregnated rain-fly for enhanced waterproofness.
For winter camping or alpine travel, go with a four season model. Because they typically feature more durable fabric coatings, as well as more poles, four-season tents are designed to handle heavy snowfall and high winds without collapsing. Of course, four-season tents exact a weight penalty of about 10 to 20 percent in trade for their strength and durability. They also tend to be more expensive.
Domes and Tunnels
Tents are broadly categorized into two types, freestanding, which can stand up on their own, and those that must be staked down
