Coleman Lantern Carry Case

A good case to protect the 295 power house Coleman lantern.There is a smaller case available but this is for small lantern models and doesn't fit the 295, so be aware of this. I made the mistake.The case comes in 2 parts, the base that the lantern fuel tank recesses into this is quite a snug fit, you can store a few spare mantels between the underside of the fuel tank and the base of the case. Then there's the main body that covers the lantern and protects it. It's made of reasonably robust plastic. There's enough room to get the Coleman supplied filler funnel up the inside of the main cover and the lantern. As has been mentioned in previous reviews the means that the base and main body of the case couple together is 2 small moulded plastic lugs on the base section that recess and clip in to cut outs on the main body of the case. For me this system has I high potential to get damaged and fail in time and with use. The cut outs in the main body feel pretty weak. Only time will tell, you also need to ensure that you have properly clipped the base and main body together otherwise you could go to pick it up and the base will fall out of the main body.All in all a pretty basic and straight forward design that will protect the lantern in a far better way than the original cardboard box it came in.For what ever reason this case is only available from the United States. However this didn't prove too much of a problem, door to door the delivery took 7 days. Pretty good, I feel. It was well packaged and protected.

Certainly adds protection, but as someone has said earlier, the fastening clip idea is a bit cheap and cheerful and not as secure as we'd like.

Great idea, but flimsy, catch at the bottom not that robust

Excellent protective case

Good cover and great protection for youre storm lamp
