There is more in this excellent tent, it is a dark rest type. The manufacturer claims that it reflects 90% of the sunlight. So the atmosphere in the tent is cooler during the day.
The tent has two doors and one of them is hinged type, and this is why I have added it also to my list of hinged door tents. The picture shows you that it is with a minimal fly. But this is why you have views around through its 5 separate windows that are on all the sides. The tent comes with a divider so you can have two rooms.

This Coleman WeatherMaster 10 is one of the best know tents from this brand at the US market. It could be described as a cabin-style camping tent. This implies steep walls, a high ceiling, and a minimal rain fly that covers the ceiling only.
The tent looks cool with its two doors on the opposite sides, and one is the hinged door. Both doors are with mesh windows, but you also have several separate meshed windows. Two of them are angled and positioned under the fly, so they can stay open all the time, you can see them in the picture above.
Floor vents are available, so this combined with the ceiling which is completely a mesh, will allow for good air circulation. This makes the tent perfect for summer camping, and ventilation should never be an issue with this tent.
The official waterproof rating is only 450 mm. This is low but it is completely enough for a normal summertime camping. The floor is a bathtub-style design.
