We have a Varkala 420. We have used it 3 times with no problems even in a strong wind. It goes up a treat with our electric pump.

We have one of these
Goes up very quickly with the pump. We have a Kampa Rallye Air pro and have had problems with it going down.......till we realised there were lots of valves to close!!!!!!! Now we only open and close the valves along the front on the outside and leave the internal valves closed.

Started with a motorbike and tent.......my gallery, my life.

Yup. That's what you need, a 2 stage pump that can cope with volume of air and pressure too

We bought the Kampa Rally Air Pro; just back from a week in Essex, and it was great .

Dead simple to put up, and dead simple to take down!

Was fantastic in the wind (and it was windy!!); really quiet, and tubes just bent with the wind. No creaking or banging of poles.

The only minor issue we found was that the inflated tubes have a 'footprint', that gets wet and dirty on wet grass. It meant that we had to clean that off and wait to dry when packing away. Next time will put a small piece of breathable groundsheet under each 'leg'.

We bought the 390, and got rid of our porch and full size awnings. This one is plenty big enough, and is up and pegged in under 15 minutes.

More beer time!

they are all learning from each other, our Dorema Air has a flap sewn in to place under each 'leg' to protect it from dirt and punctures.
