A few of the cool points about dome tents are, that they are for, the most part light, making them easy to carry around. In nearly all cases, tents used for backpacking are of the dome type. They are generally speaking, freestanding and very straightforward to set up. In good weather, you could do without securing the tent with stakes and ropes, not that this is recommended.

Dome tents are the most commonly seen of all the other types of tents you will find when camping. They tend to do better in bad weather than other types, allowing water to easily slide off the slanted sides, unlike cabin tents that have flat tops, allowing the water to pool on the top of the tent. The simplest dome tent should have a rectangular footprint, sloped walls two or more poles which cross in the middle of the roof. Due to their construction, it is usually thought of that they are ideal for up to a maximum of 6 campers.
