Hi Larbea22
Its not as easy as that... There is a tent display and this is run by one retail company with their tent suppliers. I think they have the rights or whatever its called to sell tents at the show. If that retailer is not an Outdoor Rev customer then that's it. I do think they will have a motor home drive away awning which has the same tube system and fabric etc so this will give an idea of the quality... Soz

What a shame.. feel for Outdoor Rev :(

Fingers crossed the retailer will have an Outdoor Rev tent - trying to find one close to us is like looking for rocking horse pooh it seems.

Gary, do you have any idea on the size for the optional clip in inner? I've been looking at various inflatable tents with a view to sleeping six adults with a reasonable amount of room. Would prefer poly cotton but the obvious contenders - euphoria, harrier don't have an option for the extra inner and though I like the idea of a karsten they are a bit pricey!

Hi, you could by the Vango universal inner, its a free stabbing good sized double that sits where ever you want it to. As for the Outdoor Rev inner, you can fit a double airbed in it... I'll see if I can get a more accurate size. It is only for the the Outdoor Rev tents as they have the clips in the correct place.

Thanks Gary, the Vango freestanding inner isn't very high is it? We have put a universal type of inner in our Icarus 1000 which works OK but looks a bit untidy. Another option is an Illusion 800 which looks to me like a polyester Euphoria (wonder why they don't make the extra inner for the Euphoria).

Yeah the Illusion is great and I wonder why they haven't made the Euphoria the same.

Iv'e not got the sizes for the Outdoor Rev inner but it is now listed on my "Inflatable Tents Online" website with an image for you. It will fit a double air bed.

Feels like a trip to Hertfordshire is required to look at the options, when do you put up your display tents Gary?

Great, I have a week off early March so I'll give you a call and come look if you have stuff up, if not I'll come up in April and look at the Karsten's on the same trip.

Hello all
just to answer a previous question, the Outdoor Rev pack is 83 x 55 x 46 cm and weighs 49 kg. (but feels a lot heavier) It is currently on display at Winfields in Chester where I bought one yesterday and got £125 discount due to a special offer they have got on. This tent looks fantastic and ticks all the boxes for me the wife and two young girls. Off to buy a second hand trailer today which the tent and all the other equipment will be stored in. Then just hook up on a sunny Friday and off we go. It takes 16 pumps to fill each air tube of which there are five and in less than 10 (more like 5) mins it is up.

Just spoken to Outdoor Rev on Facebook - they WILL have the Oxygen 6.0XT on display :D

I was a little bit excited about the show beforehand, now I'm VERY excited..

I purchased the 6.0 xt earlier this week, after seeing it on display at Winfields, it's a beast of a tent, I like the fact it has alot of windows and is very roomy. With our previous tent Corvus 6+2 we found alot of the indoor space was wasted, where as with this tent you have the nice outdoor enclosed area ideal for cooking ect. Cant wait to get out and test the thing now.

Also with the offer Winfields had on £5 off with every £50 you spend meant we only paid £18 for the sun canopy.
