Most Helpful Positive Review Good quality tent, you get what you pay for
Great tent, lightweight, well made. We used this last weekend and it rained on us pretty bad. We didn't get wet at all inside. Only complaint is lack of 2 extra guy-lines with stakes for the sides of the rain fly. It stakes the 4 corners out, but not the two sides. Also, being 6'3, my feet were touching the walls a little. If you're average height, you would be fine.

Perfect tent easy to set up

by TCJ, from MN, United States Written on October 16, 2019
I have owned close to 50 tents in my life of 53 years. This was by far the easiest to set up. I like the double doors. The fact that is easy to pack and lightweight. Also found that it dries quickly, handy for those of us who like to get going before the dew is off the ground. I purchased the TN3 so that my hubby can also fit when camping with me. So plenty of room by myself with all the gear. Great purchase and Campsaver has this at a perfect price.
Pros:
  • Light weight
  • packs small
Cons:
  • Could have used 4 more kelty stakes for rain fly
Best Used for:
  • Backpacking
  • Camping

Very nice tent

by Suzanne R., Verified Owner from BC, Canada Written on September 23, 2016
I really like the tent, however it isn’t super obvious which way to put the fly so it took me longer than I’d like to figure out the first time. I’m sure I will eventually get used to how to do it more quickly. Also, I wish it came with a footprint. Most tents seem to have one included. Otherwise, great tent, great price, very roomy and lightweight. I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about the rectangular folding, but it’s fine. Rolling is a bit easier but again, I will get used to how to fold the tent efficiently. Thanks!

Light, easy to put up, excellent features

by Pauly B., Verified Owner from VICTORIA, Australia Written on September 22, 2016
It's common knowledge in the industry that when a company says "3 person" they really mean "2"...and the Kelty is no exception. It's super light, easy and intuitive to erect and loaded with features. Get tye footprint as well because the lightness comes at the cost of some thin flooring (but hey, that's the price of UL). Unlike other brands it's actually easy to put the TN3 back into the packing bags and the rectangular "parcel" shape makes it easy to slide into your bag. You can also easily divide the inner, fly and poles to lighten the load even more amongst a couple. The only caveat is if you are over 6 foot tall you WILL be hard up against the head and foot of the tent.

Happy camper 4.5 stars

by adventuroussoul@shaw.ca, from BC, Canada Written on August 15, 2016
Nice tent, great views from in side, love the short poles for packing in pack, 2 doors & vestibules are great. Wish it came with a removable gear loft instead of no gear loft. Could also have a bit bigger pockets but over all a great tent.

Keltie TN3

by laura, Verified Owner from MI, United States Written on July 19, 2016
Have used for a solid week. It came through heavy rain, significant winds and was easy to set up - in the rain as well as take down. The only thing missing are tie outs on the front and back. I added cording to the loops provided so I could stake then out further which protected the bottom of the tent better in the rain. Lots of room,

Well designed, sturdy tent

by Gilbert, K., Written on April 18, 2016
Set it up in the backyard, it came with step-by-step instructions. Also the poles on the tent were color coded. The tent was easy to set up overall. The two door construction is a great idea, especially if you get caught in the rain. I think the best design factor of the tent is the star gazing roof. Can't wait to use it! Also, the rain fly is designed to quickly come up or down while your inside the tent. This may take some practice, as my arms and fingers are small.

Great Stargazer

by Bill E., Written on November 28, 2015
This is a very nice tent. The clips that secure the tent to the poles are unique...easy! Fly rolls back for star gazing or venting, another cool feature. Color coded poles & fly so you set it up right, but it can be a challenge the first time if your not paying attention. Set it up in your yard before you take it camping. I am picky about tents, and I really am happy with this one.

Great Tent!!!

by Johnny C., from OH, United States Written on March 31, 2015
Stoked about this tent! Definitely fits my needs for backpacking. I went with the 3 person to have a little extra elbow room for me and whoever else joins. I like that the tent packs up into a square shape instead of a round bag. Makes packing it into my pack a little easier.
