Hello all!

I'm new to this site. Have been looking into buying a new family tent and am really impressed by the Vango Airbeam range. Would be very interested to hear your opinions... good and bad.

We have one - the Capri 500. Used for 5 nights so far ( a 2 and a 3). Off tomorrow for 4 nights!

Very impressed by the ease of pitching and deflating. I did write a review on it - it's not yet been posted!

The Capri is part of the entry level range, which suited us on price, but also weight. I do wish the main door had a flyscreen, but love the canopy porch. Great for inclement weather. Windows are nice and large and crystal clear.

Very easy to pitch / I peg out the 4 corners. Husband or son pump up the beams, then a few more pegs and guys. On our second camp we were brewing up a cuppa and sat in chairs with then tent up, aerobed inflated and boot empty within 30 minutes of arriving on site.

It's not huge, but suits us, and are already planning a long break to France next year.

Let me know what specific questions you have and I'll try to answer them.

2016: France (in plan)

We have the Kampa Croyde classic polycotton, great tent, good reviews too, sleeps 6. Good layout and enclosed porch.

But it is a big beast but not hard to put up.
