Hi
I am now a single parent with 4 young children and still want to take my kids camping has we love it.
My problem is erecting my Outwell Montana 6 tent alone.
The kids are to young to help really so I have been contemplating buying one of the Vango airbeam ranges.
Any advice would be very gratefully received.
I am also downgrading to a smaller car from a Vauxhall Zafira so would like to know if the airbeams suitable for 5/6 people would be smaller to transport.
Thanks.

     I am sure the inflatable tent's are bigger pack size and weigh more, but sure someone on here will be along to correct me if I am wrong.

Hi. We have the Vango Airbeam Eternity 600. It is a big lump of a tent and weighs in at around 28kg but once out of the bag and rolled out it does become more manageable. We have a Mazda 6 and it takes up about half the boot.
It's so easy to pitch, just peg the four corners out and inflate the beams! We love our tent. Hope this helps you

Thank you for the replies.
The airbeam does seem quite easy to put up so may give it a go.
