Only one moan the front entrance which is the one we used the most as it has a built in canopy hasn't got a mesh insect screen on so our tent filled up with resident bugs quite quickly! Can of Raid was needed! Side entrance does have an insect screen. We also purchased a footprint groundsheet and carpet as this protects the underneath and inside of your tent.
If you watch the video tutorial on YouTube it makes it even easier. This tent is easy to pitch and easy to take down. We are only a couple so it was more than enough room for two of us. This Capri 600XL is a good sized tent for two adults and two small children. We have just used this tent for the first time, although we have had a smaller Vango Airbeam tent before. As we left a fellow camper asked how it came down so I quickly demonstrated!ĥ from 5 people found this review helpful, was it helpful to you?īy: Dawn2 Reason: I own(ed) one Made in: 2015 Rating: The tent stood up to all the cornish summer weather without any problems - bone dry inside (I did drop the inner tent based on previous experiance).Īll in all most impressed.

Taking it down went smoothly and quickly. Bed room area is great, room for the airbeds and all the clothes bags. The awning at the front is great for the cooker and provides good cover. Internally the space is great, room to hide from the weather and not trip over each other.
There were three of us for that trip, my partner (who had back problems hence I pitched it largely myself) and young son. Having seen this I dropped the front of the inner tent off the loops so it could not touch in the breeze, problem solved. No issues with the watertight state of the tent generally - with one exception - the inner tent and the outer blew about quite a lot and touched leading to there being some water hitting the inner. People next to us very impressed by the sheer speed.īeing August and a festival we got a good pounding by the rain.
No issues, peg the corners, pump up the beams and peg it out. It went up first time and no problems (I did try it at the local park as a first test) at the Cropredy festival where I was pretty much putting it up by myself. I am new to airbeams but took the plunge based on great feedback from people I know with one. I have had two chances in the past month (August) to use the tent in anger. Having just got back from a second outing with this tent I feel able to give some comments. All in all I can't wait for our next trip!īy: Andy-badsey Reason: I own(ed) one Made in: 2015 Rating:
#Airbeam tent review how to
So before our next trip I need to work out how to get it fixed.
My main problem is that on packing away the cord snapped in the only pole the tent has, now that may have been due to my teenagers enthusiam, but they have taken poles down many times in the past. My favorite bit is the canopy, allowing me somewhere to cook and sit outside with protection from the elements. The mesh door to the front was very useful for our 1st camp in Wales (loads of midges!) The darkened bedroom was very good at keeping the light out in the mornings. It had no problems keeping us dry in the multiple downpours, but it hasn't been tested in the wind yet. I find getting it back into its bag more of a challenge as I can't get rid of all the air, even with the help of my 2 teenage boys. It really is very spacious for the 3 of us. The tent was quick to put up and easy to work out how to inflate, much quicker than our poled icarus version. I always find Vango to be a good manufacturer, so chose this one. I took a leap of faith and bought my first inflatable tent. 2 from 2 people found this review helpful, was it helpful to you?īy: Juliebelper Reason: I own(ed) one Made in: 2017 Rating:
