Frequently asked questions

The CORE Instant Tent comes with an integrated LED lighting system designed to offer ambient light within the tent. The lights are powered by a battery pack that requires D batteries (not included). Users can easily switch the lights on and off and adjust the brightness settings to suit their needs, providing adequate lighting for reading, organizing, or just relaxing inside the tent.

Yes, one person can set up the CORE Instant Tent, thanks to its instant setup design. The tent features pre-attached poles that you simply unfold, extend, and secure, making the assembly process quick and hassle-free. Setup typically takes a few minutes, with most users reporting an assembly time of under 10 minutes. However, initial setup may take a bit longer as you become familiar with the process.

The CORE Instant Tent is designed with water-resistant materials and features H2O Block Technology which includes water-repellent fabrics and sealed seams to help keep the interior dry. Moreover, it has an adjustable ground vent and a rainfly for improved ventilation and additional protection against rain. While it is suitable for various weather conditions, extreme weather like heavy snowfall or very high winds might require additional precautions.

The CORE Instant Tent comes in various sizes, capable of accommodating 6, 9, 10, or 12 people. The interior is spacious, with enough room for multiple air mattresses or sleeping bags. The height of the tent allows most people to stand upright, adding to the overall comfort and roominess of the space. The larger models, like the 10 and 12 person tents, often feature room dividers for added privacy, making them ideal for families or groups seeking a comfortable camping experience.

  • Best tent purchase ever
Style: 6 Person
Very excited about this tent. Bought it for camping next month, set it up in the living room to inspect for any imperfections like tearing or broken poles. Incredibly quick setup. Husband and I had it unfolded and upright in less than one minute. Very roomy tent. Battery pack was easy to put batteries into and stick into the holder. Night light is cozy, cabin light has different brightness and the brightest is perfect for maneuvering in the dark. Zippers easily glide to close up doors or windows. Rainfly was easy to attach and put the awning poles into. Didn't realize it came with a storage pouch that you attach to the wide wall of the tent (the side without the door) so that was cool to find and attach. Didn't notice any imperfections or blemishes, felt confident when folding it back up and putting it back in the bag. ... show more

  • Excellent tent
Style: 6 Person
I purchased this for my son so he'd have a tent he could stand up in when he goes on his annual trip up Mt. Lemmon in Tucson with friends. He loves it. It's easy to put up and take down and the built-in lights are helpful.

  • Easiest set up ever
Style: 9 Person
Not only is this tent easy to set up but pretty easy to get back into the bag, which is rare. The bag is huge so you don’t have to jam ever nook and cranny. The LED lights are great and I love being able to stand in it to change.

  • A few problems.
Style: 9 Person
Pros: Cool design, cool look, innovative design. Cons: 1. The tent was mis-assembled from the factory. The poles were structurally incorrect and we had to bust out a screwdriver and disassemble them and then correctly reassemble them. I don't know how they even got the tent to fold into the package. Nothing seems broken, so that's good. 2. The outside light switch: only the nightlight switch works. Turning on the full-power/dimmed inside lights from the outside is a no-go. The inside of the switch works fine/normal. 3. As shown in the photos, the tent is missing a loop on each side to tether the room divider to the sides. I'd send this tent back for a replacement but the box is broken down already. It's a very decent tent but they'd better get on top of their QC situation. Update: We're officially camping in the tent for the first time. It's easy to set up and easy to get the rain fly attached. We just had a horrible lightning storm with a LOT of wind blow through and the tent did just fine. We curled up in bed throughout the storm, which lasted about 45 minutes and was really violent. My only gripe (and this could be fixed with a redesign of the rain fly,) is that the rain fly didn't keep rain from flying up under it and the water drops hit the screen and splattered us - just a little bit. In short, the rain fly doesn't protect the windows *quite* enough. I would also gripe that the tent fabric isn't totally taught and seems a little bit baggy. Our site is perfectly flat and level and I've pulled this thing straight from 4 corners and the fabric is still a little loose. The built-in lighting is so clutch, though. That's a really nice touch. All in all, I'm adding two stars to my original 2 stars due to the pounding the tent just took in that thunderstorm. Job well done. If CORE gets on top of its QC and extends the rain fly, this is a 5-star tent all day long ... show more

  • Protected from an all day rain event
Style: 12 Person
I just attended the annual Girl Scout spring camping event with my daughters, and we knew that the forecast was for 100% rain one of the days. Well, sure enough the forecast was true and it started raining around 3:00AM and rained the entire Saturday. The tent held up very well as far as water leaks goes. I had one little issue with a little water coming in by the door zipper. That very well could have been due to it no being closed properly, so that was not a game changer at all. The built in lighting is awesome and very adequate lighting. My little one appreciated the night light function. I was happy to see that CORE added a few hooks at the top of the tent for lantern, fans and the such. My other CORE 9 person tent did not have any. The instant set up function is always a plus, we got the the site a little late and got everything set up before night fall. When they advertise the tent as a 12 person tent, I take that as a general estimate of it's size. It was three of us and we had two full inflatable mattresses, a zero gravity chair, two small tables and plenty of space of various gear. The only caveat that I can think of is that the rain fly is a bit tricky to put on, and probably is better with two people. I would recommend this brand and this tent. ... show more

  • Great spacious tent _ built in light
Still need to water proof the seams to further protect from rain but I love this tent. The light and quick setup is what sold me. Me and my little dude put this up on our first try in about 5 minutes. Can't wait to take it camping this fall.
