They should really look into this.Ģ)The tent is way too short to cook in (only dare to do this in terrible weather) and I didn’t trust the ventilation for it either although this isn’t the problem. The issue is the door zips to the side and not to the roof and the taper means that if the door is open then there is a direct route for the rain to come into the tent (not helpful considering the weekend I had). I solved this by getting a cheap tarp and placing it over the door way (not unlike the picture above). This gave me some shelter while cooking and a chance to have the door open and get some fresh air in the tent without worrying about the chance of sudden storms appearing. If you have used this product please leave a review, or your comments for other visitors, many thanks! Other than these 2 niggles, this tent is excellent and I look forward to my next camping trip this weekend!Ġ from 1 people found this review helpful, was it helpful to you?Īdd your review of the Velocity 400 Airbeam! Vango could really do with a porch or something that was specifically made for it. To leave a review you need to be logged in to the. The Vango Velocity offers AirBeam technology to campers looking for a truly simple to pitch, technically advanced product. This tent can be put up in minutes, leaving you free to enjoy an array of features such as the double entrance and large porch, internal pockets and storage areas providing adequate space for all sorts of camping gear. No pole AirBeam creates a strong and rigid tent structure combined with a rapid, simple pitch. The Kampa Filey 6 AirFrame Tent Package comes complete with tent, a 100% polyethylene footprint ground that goes under your sewn-in groundsheet plus a soft polyester tent carpet that fits perfectly into your living area and provides an extra layer of insulation and warmth under foot.Peg the corners of the tent into place and then inflate the AirBeams using the Vango AirBeam pump (supplied) and the tent will pitch itself! Double valves allow rapid inflation and deflation. You will be amazed how rigid the AirFrame is when fully inflated. There's also no need to worry about over inflating these AirPoles as they are high pressure and the pump will simply cease to work when they are full. You simply use a double-action hand pump (supplied) to inflate the AirFrame and it will be fully inflated in 60 seconds. The 'AirPoles' that create the frame are also inter-connected so that you can pump the entire frame up using just one valve.Ĭonversely if something happens to damage one of the 'AirPoles' it can be isolated from neighbouring poles using the in-built isolation valve therefore ensuring continued use of the tent while a repair or replacement is arranged. Kampa's new inflatable tents means there's no more traditional steel poles but instead an inflatable 'AirFrame' that is pre-attached to the awning and so there is now awkward or time-consuming assembly. The detachable bathtub groundsheet in this area can be removed and washed for convenience. This area is ideal for 'wet gear' storage, bikes, a kitchen area or just an area to sit and watch the World go by. Moving from the main living area - through the dividing doorway - you step into the front canopy/porch area - a completely enclosed space that features a large roll-to-the-side front door and massive panoramic windows. And next to the side door is the second of the Airflow windows. One the opposite side of the tent is a side door with a rain canopy overhead and a mesh double door. Next to this porch area is one of two Airflow windows that can be zipped out to provide maximum ventilation. This large 280x380cm area features a fully sewn-in groundsheet and on the right hand side a fully enclosed porch - or en suite extension as Kampa calls it - that can be used as a storage or toilet area and can be closed off with its own door. Stepping out from the bedroom area is the main living space. The Kampa Filey 6 sleeps 6 people in a single 3+3 inner with removable divider curtain. Kampa herald this as 'the ultimate AirFrame tent' and it certainly contains masses of excellent features and top quality materials.
