 Great lantern for many uses January 27, 2010
R. Tremain (Valley Glen,CA USA)
I purchased this lantern last summer to take camping. Prior to buying I researched many different lanterns comparing their lumin output, battery life & multiple light settings. This Coleman was my final choice & I have been more than happy with it. We used to have an old lantern that used two six volt batteries that didn't put out very much light,was very heavy & it was expensive when replacing the batteries. This lantern with it's three different light settings saves on your batteries & gives you more choices on the amount of light needed.
The main reason in buying this was to get away from using our old propane lantern inside our tent & RV because of the hot exterior & potential fire hazard. This is ideal because it eliminates both problems. We recently experienced two power outages in rain storms, we pulled out the lantern & it "saved the night".
I originaly purchased this lantern from Wal Mart & returned it after finding it on Amazon for less money, no state tax & no shipping fee. Both of my daughters & two of my frinds have purchased this lantern after seeing how well ours works. After our power outage I am considering buying a second lantern.
 So far, very impressed January 10, 2010

This was purchased as a gift, but I did test it and witnessed a 2nd and 3rd test after the gift was received. The LED is surprisingly bright and the lantern seems sturdy and has a nice weight to it.
It'll be interesting to see how well it functions out in a dark forest or at an evening bonfire in the fall...
 A bit disappointed. October 16, 2009

Lantern is OK, but not anywhere near as bright as the old tried and true Coleman Lantern, but it is great if you have small children camping with you. Also, there are no nasty fumes.
Good quality, plenty of light September 13, 2009

I wanted a lantern for use in our camper and specifically purchased this one because it is LED (low energy consumption, long lamp life) and because it has the night light feature. On the high setting, it seems to put out enough light. Even the night light setting is pretty bright, almost too bright for a small camper. I definitely agree with the other reviewers that you don't really want to stare directly at this lantern because of the glare.
The overall quality of the lantern is very good. Once you get the (8) D batteries in there, this is definitely not a lantern you would ever take on a camping trip where you are packing very far from the car. However, it is great for car camping and also much safer than candles as a backup light source in the event of a power outage.
GREAT LIGHTING - a little heavy... August 30, 2009

These lanterns have a nice range of brightness, and stay on for a long time - Of course, they DO use alot of batteries, but the LED light is a conserving one. Speaking of batteries, the 8 D batteries make this lantern quite heavy - which is OK, unless you are a 90 year old and have to carry it around on your walker!! If you want a sturdy lantern with a long lasting light, this is a good one.
