Kodiak Canvas 2 Person Flex Bow Tent

I just bought my second Kodiak tent! The feeling of being in a canvas tent doesnt compare to the synthetic ones. The tents are obviously great and easy to use; but what stands out and makes all the difference is the customer service Ive received from CEP. Highly recommend buying from them.

This is my second Kodiak tent. I need a smaller one to carry in canoe and this one does perfect. The quality is second to none. I used the orange sand screws from Walmart while camping on the beach and it worked great. Kodiak is the only tent for me

Excellent product and service from the sales team.

I purchased this tent because, as a 71yo solo car camper, I needed a tent that was easy to pitch and absolutely bombproof. This is that tent. I'm fortunate that I still have the flexibility and mobility to use this style of tent. I feel completely secure in this tent in any weather conditions short of a tornado. Here are my pros and cons. PRO: This tent is remarkably adaptive to any weather conditions. Cool in the heat, warm in the cold. Completely waterproof and free of condensation. Breathable, excellent ventilation. Solid, tough construction. Light enough that I can carry it from car to camp site. Easy setup; no fly to deal with. Can withstand winds of 60+MPH. No nylon tent I've ever owned in the past 30 years has felt this solid, rugged, and secure. CON: One concession to my age has been a cot, and this tent is just a tad too small to fit comfortably an average-sized cot. My 75x25 Coleman just barely fits lengthwise, but it does touch the walls due to the slope of the sidewalls. The design is really intended for sleeping on the ground with a sleeping pad. Add a cot, a small portable table and camping chair, with minimal gear stowed under the cot, and the tent is full and feels just a bit cramped. If I have to hunker down for a long period of time due to inclement weather, I have to break the cot down. I make do with this because the tent is so bombproof it makes up for the lack of room. The other large con is lack of an awning/vestibule. Kodiak has said that an awning is not needed because the roof is only 4' high, and you couldn't really sit under it. But they neglect to consider that an awning pitched low with stakes and guy lines would make a fine vestibule where you could cook in bad weather, as well as serve as a small dry crawlspace to get into the tent in inclement weather by protecting the door opening. Most every nylon tent has this nice feature, and it would not be hard to add in future designs of this tent. NITPICKS: There are only two small plastic rings for clipping on items such as lanterns, fans, organizers; one over each V-window. There can easily be more. And a future 9x7 deluxe model of this tent might include a stargazer window in the roof, but this might not be possible due to the bowflex construction. Conclusion: I LOVE this tent. As a senior, it gives me a level of security and comfort in tent camping I was not getting in nylon tents. Were it not for this tent I might not be tent camping at all. Thanks for reading.

I'm late to reviewing this tent, but I took it to the desert with me where it gets notoriously windy. As in send tents flying in the air windy. It held up amazingly when everyone else tent was falling apart. Came back to camp and one point and was told that my tent was near still when it got extremally windy. Careful when setting up the bar, its possible to do it alone but I almost had it spring back and hit me in the teeth. If you make sure windows are zipped up, it does a decent job of keeping dust out. You can make a cot work but I would not recommend tall ones. As for the company- AMAZING SERVICE. I cannot stress how helpful they were and how quickly they got back to me. They were able to give me a time frame for shipping, answered my questions and addressed my concerns. When budget allows it, I am looking into getting a larger version of this tent and will absolutely be doing it through Competitive Edge.
