It depends on what you mean by "worth it". Coleman tents are huge and luxurious, but this one weighs almost 40 pounds and will not stand up to any kind of snow, heavy rain, wind, or other adverse weather. Think about what you need it for and decide based on that. If you're going to be doing any real 3-season camping, you'll probably have to downsize to a 4 or 6-man or fork out some serious cash (North Face Dome 8-man: $2500)
