5 Features a Luxury Family Tent Needs
1 Luxury Family Tent Size
This is one time size truly does matter. When selecting a Luxury Family Tent never accept a model that’s scrimping on square footage of the floor area, nor should you consider a style that isn’t of adequate height. As a general rule of thumb, especially if you’re selecting a 2 room model, look for a floor area of over 100 sq ft, and a height of over 6 ft, and preferably 7ft.
You are buying a luxury family tent after all, and families grow! Sure the kids are little right now, but trying to house strapping 6′ 15 year old’s in a low profile tent is not a lot of fun.
2 Wall & Floor Materials
The wall fabric needs to be lightweight, waterproof, and wind proof.
- Lightweight probably means looking for a Nylon Taffeta fabric or similar.
- Waterproof means look for a fabric adequately sealed, usually with a silicone based treatment.
Flooring material needs to be waterproof, strong and tear resistant. Luxury family tent floors are usually laid over rough ground, so any little pebble can wreck havoc on a sub par floor.
Windproof – even though you’ll have fly over the tent, tent materials tend to flap in the wind, and if not of an adequate tear resistance you could be pretty sorry some stormy night.
3 Storage Size and Weight.
Look for a model that folds & stows easily, and in a compact space. Models such as the Eureka Titan Luxury Family Tent have a very compact size when folded and packed, just 12″ x 29″. That’s about the size of a small suitcase, so it’s easily stowed in the smallest of car trunks. Weighing in at just 32lbs, even the kids will be able to help packing up.
4 The Little Extras
Look for thoughtful touches like some corner closet, rings for hangers, clothesline rings at all eaves, and mesh storage pockets on ceiling panels. Little extras like these can make big difference to a well organized camping experience. Take the mesh storage pockets for example, a great place to store your car keys. Pop them in the pocket when you setup the tent, and you’ll know exactly where they are when you tear down!
5 A Respected Luxury Family Tent Manufacturer
Sure you can buy inexpensive tents at big box and department stores, but a tent should be a purchase that lasts you a long time and no name brands simply don’t cut it. A great place to look for a Luxury Family Tent is on Amazon, where they’re known for only selling the best brands, from established manufacturers such as Eureka, a company that has been producing quality tents since 1895. Eureka makes models from individual pup tents to military tents, and everything in between. One of their most popular models is the Eureka Titan Luxury Family 13.5-Foot by 9.5-Foot Eight-Person Two-Room Tent, a model of luxury family tent that embraces all the 5 points discussed here.
