also if you do a search for airbeam in the tent forum there are alot of posts on them.
some did buy,and i'm afraid there were problems with leaking on some,hopefully vango will have sorted this by now.

Thank you

Seems to be a mixed bag of reviews but really does seem the only type can put up on my own .Bit more tricky as am in a wheelchair and the only adult

Will go look at one and hopefully try putting up and down on my own

Thing that put me off the airbeams was the lips to get in the doors for wheelchair access.

Yeah though looking at this years eternity there'd a front canopy/extension that can be added and that seems to be flat access but enclosed . So can get into that with my power chair and could leave the manual inside the main tent and should be able to transfer between the twI by parking side on

Well that's the Theory , will hopefully test end of Feb as they start coming instore

Just found the static to much last year with having to drag myself up the steps also into the bedrooms was overheard on shoulders where in theory dojng transfer should be easier

But - just a thought - does the front canopy/extension have to be thrown over the Airbeam, once pitched, as per other tents? If so, you could be back to square one with that idea.

Have you spoken to someone at Vango, to see if they could maybe modify a doorway for you? Failing that, I bet TVS could sort it out.

Best of luck with it!
