Bought this tent last year at a reduced price at the end of the season. Has been on about 4 outings so far including the true test which was the Steelhouse Festival in wales last weekend. Absolutely horrendous weather all weekend! Many people had to abandon their tents because of the weather but ours stayed up with only a few small issues. A small tear developed in the main section of the roof in front of the sleeping area, which I repaired on site using the repair kit provided for punctured air beams. In addition we had to keep putting the pegs back which are not particaulary heavy duty in otherwise it was great. The groundsheet not being sown in did not present a problem and the tent stayed mainly dry.We also took the canopy down to avoid issue but it held up well on the first day. It just rolls up and is optional.Putting the tent up is an absolute joy. It can be done by just one person in about 10 minutes. You do need two of you to put the canopy up though.Taking the tent down is a little bit of a mission because you have to ensure you deflate all the beams fully otherwise it won’t go back in the bag. This is done by firstly deflating all the beans using the pump on deflate then physically going over the deflated tent and pushing the air through the beams to the access point before using to pump to further deflate so that all the air goes. The tent then needs to be rolled to the width of the canopy poles. It will then go back into the bag with relative ease.One last thing a few more decent serrated heavy duty pegs would help rather than the smooth ones that kept coming out.I’ve given it 5 stars because this is the best all round tent ever because of how easy it is to put up.

This has to be the best 5 man tent I have bought or used. I purchased this size as it was a replacement for my old Vango Icarus 500 so I was able to use the footprint and carpet, having just come back from a long weekend away I have to say I was very impressed it held up well to strong winds and gust of 20-25 the tent kept it shape and that was without using the TBS straps the canopy took a beating but the poles flexed enough, would of been better to of rolled it up but with my kitchen set up underneath it and heavy rain I just kept an eye on them, It is very easy to pitch about 15 minutes with a footprint and all the guide ropes in place,found it to be fully waterproof with one night of heavy rain and early morning showers and although the ground sheet is not sown in the floor stayed dry. The bag is large enough the get the tent packed up but make sure you use the pump (without pressure gauge fitted) to remove all the air from the 3 beams first. Very impressed and cannot wait to get more use out of it. Recommended

The adverts suggest that this tent comes with a sewn in ground sheet, be aware that only the ground sheet in the bedrooms are sewn in, the living area is not (we ended up buying some velcro to secure the groundsheet.Also the advert mentions a blackout bedroom but, again this is not 100 accurate, light still enters the bedroom as the blackout material is not especially opaque. If you compare the darkness of the bedrooms in this tent to the Coleman equivalent there is a marked difference with the Coleman being almost pitch black.That said, the tent goes up very easily and quickly and is of a good size for two adults and a youngster with travel cot etc etc.Comes down just as quickly and for once a tent can be put back into its bag without too much of a struggle.In short, bearing in mind the two criticisms above, if you need a tent that can easily be put up by one person then this is a good buy for the money as other airbeam tents of this size are far more expensive.

Being single mom I needed a tent that I could set up largely by myself in short duration and this tent was a good choice. I did need help of my super excited children and they enjoyed inflating the airbeams. it was much much easier than traditional tent with poles which we had previously used and needed 2 adults. Thank goodness for new technology! The insides were of high quality which withstood rain at night and wind! Very pleased with this tent. If only for the very first pitching experience it was easier to find the front of the tent!

As a newcomer to camping, I wanted to keep things simple. This tent ticks all the boxes for those of you in a similar situation. It takes a very short amount of time to put up ( about 15 minutes all in ), is simple to do and is a decent size. It's very stable once up and seems pretty well made. It rained the second time I used it and there wasn't any sign of a leak, so I am very pleased with it. I would recommend this product. Hope this little review helps some of you considering making a purchase?

Its a great tent. However as a female it is very difficult to pump up, have needed to buy the electric pump version for an added £80!. But plenty of room inside, bedrooms large, although the divider is totally see-through! I would recommend it.

Great sturdy tent. The main body holds up well in windy conditions. There is a decent amount of space inside. The only negative we've experienced is the canopy which struggles in windy conditions. Two adults and two young children.

We used the tent on a recent trip to France. Thankfully the weather wasn't challenging but The tent went up and came down easily and did everything needed.

Bought during a sale in 2018 and really impressive. Have used throughout the summer months and no complaints.

Easy to erect. Porch not as robust and rest of tent but a great asset.
