While hiking and bikepacking gain popularity among outdoor enthusiasts, many fondly remember camping in traditional tents like the Coleman. The new REI Co-op Campwell 4 tent caters to this group, offering an accessible option for outdoor adventures.
Having grown up camping in simple shelters, my partner and I chose the REI Co-op Campwell 4 for a two-week journey across various terrains. While we had a small mix-up with the poles one night, it allowed us to experience the tent’s features and limitations firsthand.
In a nutshell: The Campwell 4 by REI Co-op targets first-time tent buyers or those looking to upgrade from basic models like the Ozark Trail or Amazon Basics. It may not have all the advanced features of REI’s higher-end tents, but it offers a family-friendly design, a roomy floor area, and ample headroom to keep everyone comfortable during weekend getaways.
