Easy to set up, with lots of shade and livable space – the Instant Up Silver 8P Side Entry Tent from Coleman is ideal for family camping expeditions.
The latest addition to the Instant Up family uses their all-in-one frame and inner design for a super quick set up. Pitching the tent is simple – just lay it down, spread out the fabric, and fully extend the poles until they lock into place. Then throw the waterproof fly over the top, and you’ll be ready to relax. If the weather is warm the mesh windows will provide airflow and help prevent condensation while the heavy-duty welded PE floor gives you protection from the ground up. The spacious interior features a removable room divider so that you can have some internal privacy and has enough room to stand up for better livability.
The side entry on this tent also allows for additional shade around the side of your tent with a large peaked awning. Make setting up your outdoor shelter a breeze on your group or family trips to the campsite, with the Up Silver 8P Side Entry Tent from Coleman.
I have an instant up 6p tent. I camp solo with 3 kids and finding we need a little more room. Would appreciate recommendation for Coleman tent to for a family of 4, easiest tent to erect. Thanks. Would Coleman 8p Evo be best choice?

G'day Leona,
Yes, the Instant Up Silver 8P Side Entry is a great tent for a family of 4. It is a little larger than the 6P version you currently have, and includes extra entrances, and a room divider. The other really popular option is the 8P Lighted Northstar Darkroom as it includes the darkroom coating that can help keep the kids asleep a little longer in the mornings! In terms of setting up, they are both very similar to set up to your current 6P tent, just with an extra extension of the frame.

Waterproofing1 answer
Is the lower part of the inner tent waterproof, or water resistant?
Max - Wauchope, NSW(1 year ago)
G'day Max,
No, the tent inner has no waterproof rating, so needs to be used with the fly in any inclement or wet weather. With the awning/s up the walls should be mostly sheltered but if the weather is wild and you've got rain coming in crazy directions you might have to pop them down.

G'day SK,
Delivery to Blacktown is regularly 1-2 business days, however at this point in time there are some delivery delays Australia wide, especially on larger items, so we're not able to guarantee the usual time frame. The Silver 8P has a 12-month manufacturers warranty, and you can find everything you'll need to know about returns here: https://www.snowys.com.au/returns

What is the thread count (T) for the fly material?
Hafiz - East Victoria Park, WA(3 years ago)
G'day Hafiz,
Coleman hasn't specified the thread count of the fabric they use for the fly material on the silver model instant up tents, so we're not too sure sorry.

Mesh 1 answer
Does the mesh on the windows and doors of this tent protect against mosquito and sand flies?
Kristyn - Morningside (4 years ago)
G'day Kristyn,
I've had a look at the mesh on the silver instant up 4 in our store and its definitely mozzie proof but not sandfly proof. This mesh would be the same on the 8 person instant up.

Hi, I like the look of this tent. Do you know if it will become available in the gold series? Thanks
Darren - Penshurst(4 years ago)
G'day Darren,
At this stage Coleman has only released a side entry model of the silver 8P, however, we do sell the Instant Up Gold P which has end entrances and has been a really popular model for a long time.
