G'day Alwyna,

You can fit 2 x Oztrail easy Fold Single Stretchers, or 1 x Oztrail Easy Fold Queen Stretcher into the side rooms of the Chalet 9CV Tent.

G'day Lyn,

The very last of our images is a floor plan, so hopefully, that will help. The side rooms are 2m x 2.8m and will fit a Coleman double-height queen mattress.

G'day Nick,

Generally, the way to fix the poles on a dome tent, like the Chalet 9CV will be to just replace any broken sections of the pole as Coleman (and other dome tent manufacturers) don't sell individual pole kits. You'll need to double-check your tent, but the poles should be 11mm in diameter, you can find replacement section packs here, and instructions on how to conduct repairs here. If you're completely missing the yellow poles, then, unfortunately, you'll need to create an entire new pole using replacement section packs.

G'day Peter

Yes we're sure that the bag is 53cm wide, I'm not too sure which tent you're comparing this one too, but that Chalet 9CV packs down fairly short and wide compared to their instant up style range which are longer and skinnier.

G'day Jaclyn,

You won't need to use a tarp over the Chalet 9CV tent. They come equipped with a 3000mm waterproof rating so they will stand up to a fair bit of rain with no troubles.

G'day Phil,

Thanks for touching base, the Chalet 9 CV doesn't have a specific wind rating like some of the other models, however, I can confirm that this style is generally fairly rugged and will perform well in windier conditions as long as all of the tie down and guy ropes points are pegged out.

G'day Andrew,

The fan Kev was referring to in the video is the Coleman CPX Lighted Tent Fan. These come with a magnetic plate you can use to attach it to the walls/ceiling of the tent. The only other thing I can think of off the top of my head is some extra pegs that might be more suitable for either sandy ground or really hard rocky ground. 

G'day Melanie,

We think the best groundsheet for the Coleman Chalet 9 CV is the Oztrail Ultramesh Tarp in the 3.05 x 6.1m size.

G'day Melanie,

You can fit one if the Coleman Double High Quickbeds into the Chalet 9 CV end rooms you just have to move it a little closer to the entrance door due to the angle of the tent side.

G'day Krystle,

I'm pretty sure it makes sense! Here's my explanation, let me know if it doesn't answer your question. The flysheet has a door that can be lifted up to use as an awning and inside that, the tent inner has both a mesh and solid privacy door. So you can leave the awning up, but still maintain privacy inside the tent. I hope that helps!

G'day Joshua,

You'll have no worries popping a queen airbed in the bedrooms of the Coleman Chalet 9 CV Family Dome Tent. 

G'day Gizelle,

I often recommend the Oztrail Ultramesh Tarp for people looking for a groundsheet for larger tents. Although with the size of the tent and the fact that you're wanting to have some tarped area for a table & chairs, none of them will be quite big enough. It might be worth your while looking at grabbing a couple that you can put together to create a larger area. 

G'day Nath,

Great question. It is possible to fit the Oztrail Bunk Bed, but as you mention, it's certainly a bit tight for space. It really depends on how you want to configure your layout. With the Chalet 9 CV, some squeeze it in on the sides of the room, while I've heard others place through the middle of the room and work around it. 

G'day Dave,

The end section of the Coleman Chalet 9 CV Family Dome Tent is 200cm x 280cm which gives you two options to consider.

You can either look to fit 3x narrow sleeping mats (for instance, the Zempire Bomber Pad available here is only 76cm wide). However, this doesn't leave you much spare floor space.

Alternatively, you can look to add an Oztrail Bunk Bed which are available here or here. These allow you to double up the sleeping arrangements in a vertical sense, and as a result, then gives you additional floor space.
