I bought my missus an Air Beam Vango,
Four of us with the same tents on. We have nearly took over the camp site with their size.

That is funny you should say that because we bought an electric blanket as it is extemely cold. We was out with a fire pit last night drinking till 3am so the sun was up at 6am and warmed the tent. But the electric blanket was an absolute must.Do you have a way of heating it if the weather is cold?

Same here. I cannot believe how camping has become so luxurious. This setup a has cost us a couple of grand but well worth it if we get a few weeks away a year out of it.Had to Google that, times have moved on since I last went camping.
We initially had a waz tent (borrowed I think) and it wasn't a pleasant experience. She dragged me to a tent shop and marched me over to the Vango bit and said "what about this one, all I have to do is pump it up and I can take the kids without you."Had to Google that, times have moved on since I last went camping.

How are you pumping it up ?We initially had a waz tent (borrowed I think) and it wasn't a pleasant experience. She dragged me to a tent shop and marched me over to the Vango bit and said "what about this one, all I have to do is pump it up and I can take the kids without you."
I raced to the checkout and bought it there and then.

I think she uses the ciggie lighter pump thing but also has a back up hand pump. I've never actually put it up.How are you pumping it up ?


We bought an electric pump. Mates was knackered by the time they did it by hand. Mine was up in half hour and everyone is getting the electric pump for next trip.I think she uses the ciggie lighter pump thing but also has a back up hand pump. I've never actually put it up.![]()
