Eureka N!ergy 9 Five-Person Family Tent Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My husband and I bought this tent last fall for a camping trip. We really enjoyed it all in all. I will tell that it say's it's a three season tent. I think that is pushing it. We went to Penn State for a camping trip in mid November. The weather was calling for a cool temps and a low chance of snow flurries. Well when we arrived at our site, there was 10 inches of snow on the ground. Prior to leaving for the trip we water sealed the seams. We stayed completely dry, no problems with that. However, the temperature was the problem. During the day temps were in the mid to upper 40's, at night it was in the low 30's. Because of the very large windows on the sides of the tent, it is impossible to stay warm. It is very drafty. We even had an air mattress and two very expensive, very good sleeping bags with extra blankets. No ways were we comfortable.

But if you are using this tent for spring, summer, very early fall, I highly recommend it. The lights are a great feature. They are actually a very pretty blue color. The light is just enough for was you need to do.YOU WILL NEED THE POWER CONNECTOR! It is a separate price. The nice thing about having the power is you can charge your cell phone, use a hair dryer, etc.

The space is great too. We were able to fit a queen air bed and two twin air beds in the space.

I think you can't go wrong for the price, and it really is good quality.

Product Description:
Plug in outdoors with the Eureka N!ergy 9, the coziest version of Eureka's powered home away from home. The N!ergy 9 is tough yet versatile, with a freestanding fiberglass frame, clips, and a ring-and-pin assembly for quick and easy setup. The tent's 75D StormShield polyester exterior, meanwhile, holds up to rain, wind, and other weather provocations. Perhaps the coolest feature, however, is the tent's E! Power system, which lets you enjoy your favorite small appliances and accessories while you camp. Simply hook up your N!ergy series tent to an optional E! Power Pak, then plug into one of your tent's three 12-volt outlets. N!ergy tents are prewired, so there are no extra steps during assembly. More significantly, you can charge the E! Power Pak from any home outlet or your car's 12-volt power supply prior to use. Once you've installed the Power Pak, you're free to plug in a reading light, fan, or other 12-volt powered accessory.
The tent's openings include a twin-track, D-style door with #8 zippers and zipper covers, two windows, two mesh roof vents, and two large mesh sidewall panels that provide extra ventilation and light. And users will love the gear loft and storage pockets, which help you keep essentials close at hand yet conveniently tucked away.

The N!iergy 9 tent, which sleeps four to five people, measures 9 by 9 feet across the floor and 6 feet tall and weighs 15 pounds, 6 ounces. It's also backed by a lifetime warranty.
About Eureka
Though the exact year is unknown, Eureka's long history begins prior to 1895 in Binghamton, New York, where the company still resides today. Then known as the Eureka Tent & Awning Company, its first wares were canvas products--most notably, Conestoga wagon covers and horse blankets for nineteenth century American frontiersmen--as well as American flags, store awnings, and camping tents.
The company increased production of its custom canvas products locally throughout the 1930s and during the 1940 and even fabricated and erected the IBM "tent cities" just outside Binghamton. The seven acres of tents housed thousands of IBM salesmen during the company's annual stockholders meeting, which had since outgrown its previous locale. In the 1940s, with the advent of World War II and the increased demand for hospital ward tents, Eureka expanded operations and began shipping tents worldwide. Ultimately, upon the post-war return of the GIs and the resultant housing shortage, Eureka turned its attention to the home front during the 1950s by supplying awnings for the multitude of mobile homes that were purchased.
In 1960, Eureka's new and innovative Draw-Tite tent, with its practical, free standing external frame, was used in a Himalayan Expedition to Nepal by world renowned Sir Edmund Hillary, the first person documented to summit Mt. Everest only six years earlier. In 1963, Eureka made history during its own Mt. Everest ascent, with more than 60 of its tents sheltering participants from fierce 60+ mph winds and temperatures reaching below -20
