Coleman Tents - Popular Even in Japan Due in part to the corona pandemic, camping is booming in Japan, particularly family camping. For those looking to buy a family tent, check out this list made by an advanced camper that introduces the Coleman tents he recommends. Let's get into it! Introducing Coleman's 5 Best Family Tents via Video This video, titled "Announcing the 5 Best Coleman Family Tents and Why" (発表します。これがコールマン オススメ ファミリーテント ベスト５の理由です。), was uploaded by "Yoshi channel." As the name suggests, it introduces the top five family tents from Coleman, as recommended by a Japanese outdoor specialist. These top 5 tents were determined by comparing functionality, ease-of-use, and cost-effectiveness. If you're thinking of purchasing a Coleman family tent, be sure to use this as a guide. No. 5 "Coleman Weather Master Cocoon III" - Outstanding Functionality Source :YouTube screenshot This is a heavy tent with many poles and thick fabric. This is a top-of-the-line Coleman tent. It takes two people about 40 minutes to set up, which is rather long, but it's a family tent with excellent functionality and can be used in all four seasons. The living room is larger than that of most Coleman family tents, so there's room for a cooler and shelves as well. In addition, two inner tents can be set up inside if you decide to purchase them (these are sold separately). The sleeping area is also spacious, with room for four sleeping bags, making it perfect for families! The many windows provide good ventilation as well. [Video] 0:20 - Coleman Weather Master Cocoon III No. 4 "Coleman Tunnel 2-Room House/LDX," - A Unique Tunnel Shape Source :YouTube screenshot The main feature of this tent is its four poles, which give it a tunnel-like shape when set up. The eaves allow for a spacious living room and prevent rain from entering the tent. It takes two people approximately 20 to 30 minutes to set up. Setting this tent up is not that difficult, as all you have to do is stand it up after threading the poles through. The secret-base-like shape is quite unique. We recommend this tent to those looking for a family tent that is easy to set up. The video shows two sleeping bags setup inside the tent, but he mentions that you could probably fit a third sleeping bag in. There is a large window in the back and smaller windows on both sides. [Video] 2:48 - Coleman Tunnel 2-Room House/LDX No. 3 "Coleman Tough Wide Dome IV/300" - Cost-Effective and Easy to Set Up Source :YouTube screenshot Among these tents, this one is quite reasonably priced. This tent is recommended for beginners because it has few poles and is easy to set up. Although it seems smaller than the other tents introduced here, the presenter introduces it as No. 3 in terms of price, setup difficulty, and ease-of-use. The inner sleeping area is designed to be spacious. However, it does not have a living room, so it would be best to attach a hexa tarp to it. If you're looking for a 4-person tent that is cozy and easy to set up, consider checking it out. [Video] 4:39 - Coleman Tough Wide Dome IV/300 No. 2 "Coleman Tough Screen 2 Room House" - Cost-Effective + Spacious Source :YouTube screenshot A popular Coleman classic. Spacious, yet reasonably priced! If you're looking to get the most bang for your buck, you should check out this family tent, perfect for 4 or 5 people to enjoy camping. It's also reasonably simple to set up and can be pitched by a single person. The living room is wide horizontally, with plenty of room for a table and chairs. Both sides can be opened and can all be converted to mesh, so you can enjoy camping comfortably in both summer and winter. A skirt can also be attached to prevent wind from entering from below. The bedroom has enough space for a family of four to relax together. [Video] 6:57 - Coleman Tough Screen 2 Room House/LDX No. 1 "Coleman Tough Screen 2 Room House/LDX" - Cost Effective, Spacious, & Functional Source :YouTube screenshot The greatest feature of this tent is that it has a dark room, making the inner portion completely dark. By adding a roof, this tent is water-resistant and also highly sheltered from light. It's also slightly heavier due to the thickness of the fabric, but Yoshi mentions that the storage bags have been made slightly larger starting from the 2020 models, making it easier to put away. The living room is quite spacious. The bedroom is large enough to fit four sleeping bags. It has seven windows, so ventilation and light can be controlled using these windows. You can even hang a lantern inside the tent. The tent costs just under 100,000 yen with all these features, which is a key point in evaluating it at No. 1. The high light-shielding properties are great for those with small children who still need to take naps as well. [Video] 9:05 - Coleman Tough Screen 2 Room House/LDX Choosing a Tent That Fits Your Camping Style When purchasing family tents and other outdoor goods, in addition to brand and price, durability, water resistance, and wind resistance are also important things to look out for. Even if you find a tent that's reasonably priced tents are expensive compared to the rest of your camping equipment. When you find outdoor goods that you're interested in, one option is to first try renting a tent to see how it feels, and if you like it, consider purchasing it from there. Don't forget to visit outdoor stores and ask the staff to clear up any questions you may have before making a purchase. Coleman releases more and more attractive family tents every year, so be sure to check out information on new products besides the ones listed here.

What are the most important things to consider when purchasing a cooler? Size, cooling ability, whether it's hard or soft, design... these are all important factors to think about. You should first decide on what it is that you want your cooler to accomplish. In this article, Tana, a solo camper in Japan, compares the usages, features, and storage capacity of four different coolers for campers having trouble choosing the right cooler. In addition, the cooling ability of three coolers of different sizes, designs, and materials are evaluated based on hourly temperatures and ice retention. This article is especially for those looking for a cooler for camping, festivals, picnics, etc., but aren't sure which one is best. We think this will help you choose the one that's right for you! AO Coolers 12L Canvas Soft Cooler Source :YouTube screenshot The first cooler on the list is the AO Coolers 12L Canvas Soft Cooler. As its name suggests it's a soft cooler. At first glance, the bag is so well designed that it doesn't look like a cooler. The outdoor pattern is quite stylish. The bag, which looks like a bucket, can be made into a square shape by buckling the clips on the sides. In this shape, it is almost as large as the DAIWA Cool Line 800 8L Cooler introduced next. The capacity is 11.35 L, and it can hold 12 350 ml cans plus 2.2 kg of ice. The video shows how different sized bottles fit in the cooler.

Check it out if you're looking for a compact cooler for solo camping, fishing, or other outdoor leisure activities. It comes with a carrying strap and can be carried over the shoulder. The compartment is large enough to just barely hold a 1.5-liter bottle. It's a great cooler if you're only planning on bringing a few items. [Video] 6:10 - Daiwa Cooler Features LOGOS Hyper Subzero Cooler M 12L Source :YouTube screenshot The LOGOS Hyper Subzero Cooler M 12L is another soft cooler. This cooler has a cool silver design and can hold a 2L plastic bottle horizontally. The long sides are made of a hard material, so it can't be broken down into a smaller size, but it is designed to be thinner. It can be used for a variety of activities, including camping and festivals, making it quite attractive. Because of its stylish appearance, this product is also recommended for those who are particular about the appearance of their camping equipment. [Video] 8:04 - Features of the LOGOS Cooler Coleman Extreme Ice Cooler 25L Source :YouTube screenshot The Coleman Extreme Ice Cooler 25L is the largest cooler shown in the video, but it's a soft cooler and can be folded. It's a bit large for a solo camping cooler. Tana, the solo camper in the video, utilizes it to hold other items as well. The metal fittings on the side are plastic, so you need to be a little careful when carrying heavy items inside it. [Video] 9:06 - Features of the Coleman Cooler Comparing Cooling Ability - AO, Daiwa, and Coleman The cooling ability of coolers is important when camping in the summer. But do size and shape determine a cooler's cooling ability? Check out the video for a comparison of the cooling ability of different coolers from AO, Daiwa, and Coleman. The indoor temperature is 26.6 degrees Celsius, and one bag of ice is put in each cooler to test the temperature and ice retention over time. ・After approx. 1 hour Coleman: 14.5°C, 20% of ice melted AO: 9.4°C, 10% of ice melted Daiwa: 13.6°C, 15% of ice melted At this point, we can say that the ice retention is AO > Daiwa > Coleman. ・After approx. 4 hrs. Coleman: 13.5°C, 40% of ice melted AO: 14.9°C, 20% of ice melted Daiwa: 15.7°C, 30% of ice melted At this point, the ice retention is still the same - AO > Daiwa > Coleman. ・After approx. 6 hours Coleman: 13.5°C, 80% of ice melted AO: 14.1°C, 70% of ice melted Daiwa: 15.4°C, 70% of ice melted At this point, AO and Daiwa are about equal. ・After approx. 8 hours Coleman: 19.3°C, 90% of ice melted AO: 14.2°C, 80% of ice melted Daiwa: 13.9°C, 80% of ice melted After more than 8 hours, the Daiwa cooler maintained the coolest temperatures. [Video] 10:16 - Comparing three different coolers [Video] 17:11 - Results after 4 hours [Video] 22:09 - Results after 8 hours The Coleman is the largest of these coolers, so it's not possible to make a blanket judgment, but as an example, this test may be useful for those considering replacing or buying a new cooler in the future. Tips for Keeping Your Cooler Cool Photo：A cooler Here are some tips for keeping your cooler cool that aren't related to the characteristics of the cooler. ・Make sure that the items to be placed in the cooler are cooled in advance. If possible, cool the inside of the cooler box as well. ・Place refrigerants on the top and bottom of the cooler. ・Use a combination of large and small ice cubes. ・Don't drain the water after the ice has melted. ・Minimize opening and closing of the cooler. ・Avoid hot ground and place in a cool place out of direct sunlight, such as in the shade. Find the Cooler That Works Best for You and Enjoy Your Time Camping! Coolers are useful outdoor equipment for storing food for camping and BBQs and drinks for picnics. In summer, use coolers to prevent heat stroke and food poisoning, but be careful when handling drinks and food. There are many beautiful campgrounds in Japan.

Must-Have Equipment for Beginner Campers Japan's camping boom has brought interest in camping to a previously uninterested segment of Japanese society. However, beginner-level campers should start by asking themselves what they need to prepare for camping. In this article, we'll go over things to prepare for camping. Video Introduction This video, titled "[10 Must-Have Pieces of Camping Equipment] A Shopping List for Beginner Campers" (【最低限のキャンプ道具10種類】買い揃えるための初心者用リスト作りました), was uploaded by "From this place." In this video, beginner outdoorsmen can learn about 10 essential pieces of equipment for camping. A List of Camping Gear for Beginner Outdoorsmen Photo：A tent at a campground With Japan's recent boom in outdoor activities, camping has become increasingly popular. However, beginners often aren't sure of what kind of camping gear to bring with them. Making a list of things to get together for various styles of camping, including family, couple, and solo camping, is great place to get started. After picking out what you need, you can figure out your budget by calculating the cost of each item. The video introduces 10 different pieces of equipment by dividing the equipment into three categories: importance, lifestyle, and accommodation. It's great for beginner campers, so be sure to use it as a reference for choosing camping equipment. 7 Recommended Pieces of Camping Equipment for Beginners [Lifestyle] Photo：A tarp Let's start with the equipment you'll need for day camping, etc. ・Tarps When it's hot out, if there's no shade, there's always a risk of heat stroke. A tarp provides shelter from the sun, shelter from rain, and also serves to block the sun. Various types are available, but we recommend that you choose a product with many rope holes. The more holes in the rope, the easier it is to adjust the tarp for easier use. [Video] 0:33 - Tarps ・Table Next up is a table. The table you choose will depend on how much cooking you'll be doing when camping. If you'll be chopping ingredients, a wider table is recommended. If the table has a net underneath, you can conveniently place necessary items on the net while cooking for easy access. [Video] 1:03 - Table Photo：A woman enjoying solo camping ・Chairs Chairs like the ones they sell at home improvement stores across Japan can be bulky and are often not very durable. The video recommends Pachinox, which is lightweight and inexpensive. [Video] 1:33 - Camping chairs ・Single burners Barbecue is a popular way of cooking when camping. Many people associate BBQ with cooking with charcoal or firewood, but these methods can be time-consuming and require a lot of cleaning up afterwards. In Japan, there are two types of gas cans: CB cans and OD cans. If you're a beginner-level camper, consider trying some simple camping meals using a single burner with CB cans, as they're easy to use and obtain. [Video] 1:52 - Single burners ・Wind Screens Wind can often be a problem when cooking at camp. Windscreens can reduce the amount of time it takes to prepare a meal, so you can spend less time cooking and more time enjoying some delicious food. [Video] 2:28 - Windscreens ・Cookers If you buy frying pans and other cooking equipment over time, they'll often be shaped differently and can be difficult to store. We recommend that you start with a cooker set. When you have more opportunities to camp and want to try more elaborate camping meals, you can buy Dutch ovens or other cooking equipment. [Video] 2:44 - Cookers ・Lights Lanterns and other lighting fixtures can vary significantly in price depending on whether they're fueled by gas or liquid fuel. For beginners, lights from one of Japan's 100-yen shops are a great place to start. [Video] 3:20 - Lights 3 Recommended Pieces of Camping Equipment for Beginners [Accommodation] Source :YouTube screenshot We have looked at lifestyle equipment, but what kind of camping equipment do you need for overnight stays? Let's take a look. ・Tents The most important piece of equipment for overnight stays is the tent. Some tents can take beginners a long time to set up and take down. For beginners or those just looking for shelter and a place to drop their sleeping bag for the night, a simple one-pole tent can get the job done. If the inner tent is mesh or some other type of fabric that allows airflow, it can also keep insects out, which is convenient. Furthermore, if the tent has an entrance-like area, you can store your shoes in it. [Video] 3:51 - Tents ・Bedding Bedding is important for reducing fatigue so you don't feel tired the next day. Using an air mattress and sleeping on an elevated surface will make sleeping more comfortable and prevent inadequate sleep. If you have a cot, you can place it directly on the ground. Sleeping is an important aspect of camping. Be sure to prepare a sleeping area that suits you best. [Video] 4:47 - Bedding ・Sleeping Bag Nighttime can be colder than you might think when camping. You can use a down sleeping bag in winter and a synthetic fiber sleeping bag at other times of the year, but it's safer to use a sleeping bag that can withstand as low a temperature as possible. Be sure to check what temperatures your sleeping bag can handle when purchasing one. [Video] 5:33 - Sleeping bags The Cost of a Complete Set of Camping Equipment Source :YouTube screenshot If you purchase the 10 products introduced in this article via major mail-order sites in Japan, it can all be purchased for around 50,000 yen. The selection criteria for this equipment is such that the items were chosen so that they would last as long as possible without the need be replaced, so it's a bit more expensive than other lists perhaps. Be sure to use this video/article as a reference when buying camping equipment. [Video] 6:00 - The cost of these 10 pieces of camping equipment Summary In this article, we introduced 10 pieces of camping equipment that beginner campers should have. More and more people are getting into camping and cooking outdoors. If you're a beginner and not quite sure what to buy, consider renting first.
