In hot weather there’s a danger of bursting so you might need to adjust the air pressure.You need more room to store them once home.Harder to pack away (given we’ve always pitched in hot weather and frequently struck camp in rain…maybe poles are better).You can add 10-15 kg with an airbeam tent Much larger pack size and weight compared to pole tents of an equivalent size and style.Easier for 1 adult to put up on their own.Investment in inflatable tents means they’re improving all the time as they’re becoming more popular.If you’re wondering what all the fuss it about airbeam tents or are debating whether to change yourself, here’s some points to think about.

I found what would have been a perfect air tent for us – wider, longer, same layout (I could have probably still used the extension side porch on it). And air beams are super speedy to set up – maybe 10 minutes faster than the current 20-25 minutes it takes me now (assuming I get the poles in the right order). I love Vango for the easy oversized bags for repacking.
