This tent gets ALL its stability from the stakes. When properly staked it can withstand strong winds. Without proper staking, it is very unstable. If you have it up for a long time, periodically tighten the stakes and cords.

The item can be used in a variety of location. Please be mindful of the soil, you may need additional anchors for the sand. Also, keep in mind the tent is not wind rated and we do not warranty weather related damages.

Not a good tent for windy conditions IMHO. The design is a tall square. It can take wind but dome will be better if you anticipate heavy winds.

I used it three times last summer, and on one camping trip the winds were going about 20 mph. I had it staked tight to the ground, and had no problems. It moved a little in the wind but had no issues of anything ripping.

Seems like a pretty sturdy shelter. For wind I wound add some extra tie-downs and use screw in stakes. Having said that I am not sure any shelter will stand up to a lot of wind and snow.

I think it would hold up pretty good. You "nail" the tent down to the beach with stakes. So the better you secure the stakes the better it will hold up.

I dont think it will withstand wind without some kind of support Even if you put sand bags on the legs I would think you should still tie down to keep it stable at the top.....

It tends to get windy here as long as you have it anchored down with all the doors and windows closed you should be fine. We had wind gusts over 40 mph with no issues.

If its properly installed it will stand up to winds very well. We have had winds from light to all day 25mph winds and storms up to 75mph we have had it almost a year no problems.

Define high winds n heavy rain... It is good. I have enjoyed having it. But in my opinion if u camp in high winds and rain u have bigger issues than a tent.

This tent is the best. I think we bought some extra stakes for the beach. No problem in the wind. Never collapsed like some of the other ones we tried.

If you can tie the corners down properly and the middle poles as well, you could leave the sides and ends off completely. The only risk is very high wind like just before a thunder storm. All closed up these tents have stood up to 40 MPhil winds for me.

Hello, I agree with the first reply, you will have to get anchors or something with weight to hold it in place, we use ours when camping with our RV. We have it secured to our RV and to the grounds in many places along its base, and have yet to run into problems when the winds go above 20 mph. Just figure a way to give the base of it some weight and you will have no issues. I is a great tent and we love ours. I'd recommend some anchors cemented around it and you will gain the peace of mind it is secure in place. Over kill will never come back to bite you. We,ather and the winds as front line ahead of the storms are more fierce than many years ago, the negative is the cement, its not like dirt or grass. Your issue is holding it in place to wind. Act of GOD "Mother Nature" something you can't control Think over-kill and you will have no problems.

Mine did not hold up well at all. First time I set it up and used it under what I would consider moderate winds (12-15mph with gusts to 20 mph) and I had a pole snap and tear open the tent material. All lines and pegs were used. I bought it last fall for family Christmas, used it in June (can't return) and not sure what to do with a torn tent with a broken pole. I am pretty disappointed with this Coleman tent.

Not a weather proof tent but most certainly could be used outside. Only flaw we have with it is kids climbing on the outside and breaking the wood poles material is holding up great

Not sure about that. There is a vent in the top that might allow dust to enter if blown in by heavy winds, but other than that, no more so than any other tent. Also, it's got a large profile to wind, so if that's your concern, might be an issue.
