Test pitched our new airbeam tent in the garden yesterday and I'm so excited to get away now (Anglesey booked in 2 weeks). We bought from Winfields which is the only stockist of this particular tent. It's �750 online but due to a mix up with viewing the tent in store (where it wasn't!) Winfields gave us 10% off, bargain! Especially when looking at other tents of similar size. We had a vango Maritsa 600 but it was an eBay purchase and the door was damaged and now has a tear in the roof....so we decided to splash out for a new one.
Anyway, I'm very pleased. We wanted separate kitchen and living area that could be closed with a door rather than just a large porch, like the Maritsa has. The living area is really spacious, just 2 bedroom unlike the Maritsas 3, but there are only 4 of us so this isn't a biggy. The front kitchen area doesn't come with groundsheet, but we have a large Coleman footprint which extends as far as the door, so all good. Also means if rain does get in, which it often did in the Maritsa due to the door angle, we won't have any puddles.
Only niggle noted so far is that there is only a side door on one side, and when it's warm it's nice to have two to get a breeze through. Otherwise it's great. And pitching the airbeam...WOW, seriously quick! We didn't fully guy out, so obviously that adds to time. But four corners pegged and inflated in about 15mins!
