How quick are they at inflating the tubes?
It's surely quicker than the hand pump !!

hi paul + kate sot
iv got the outwell concorde L and hand pumping is about 10 minutes - the pumping gets harder towards the end as the air tubes get stiffer and the tent is fully erect.
i bought the electric pump and its much faster and easier but i need to hold the pump nozzle onto the tents air nipple because otherwise the force of air coming out the pump blows the air pipe out of the nipple.
the electric pump is about 4-5 mins and the tent is up.
the pegging guylines and putting up the camping eqpt takes just as long as any pole tent does.
it saves me about 15 minutes having the air tent. - notice in my signature iv kept all my pole tents!!!. - i simply cannot seem to get rid of them! - the air tent isnt that amazing.

When my back starts to buckle,
And there's hurt in my knuckle.
When my knees will not bend,
And the pain will not end.
When my joints start to seize,
And my lungs give a wheeze.
When time matters less,
Than the strains and the stress.
When the mind still wills,
But the body doth hate.
That, my friends,
Is the time to inflate!

oh just to add - if you do get inflateable tent, then inflateable sofa and chairs can use the same pump ( mine do ) and can be very comfy - mine are flocked so they are warm and nice to sit on if a bit bouncy if you dont sit still on them.
inflateable furniture folds /packs very small so makes up for the huge space the tent absorbs!

Its not so much how quicker it is with an electric pump but its just easier. My backs not great (better than it was since the operation) so the electric pump is great. We have a video of the pump working on the outwell Concorde M on our inflatable tents website. Just type into Google "12 volt inflatable tent pump" and you will find it.

A great value inflatable for a small family or couple is the new Sunncamp 150 denier, so improved fabric for 2014 Breton 500 air.
