Hi
Has anyone bought this heavily advertised on Facebook tent?
It looks ideal for me with disabilities and creaking bones. I'm very interested in a tent which inflates at the touch of a button!
The weight and size are both perfect. I'm looking for an inflatable tent, but most of them are too heavy for me. I've tried the Regatta Kolima 2 and hated it. I don't want to make another expensive mistake!
Thank you in advance ??
Youtube has plenty of videos of it in use. My concern is the shape, wider at the bottom than top, means on wet days as soon as you open the door the inside will be full of water.
No I don't have one, and no, I've never heard of them before either! Always a tad wary of things advertised on FB and the like - do your homework!
It does seem to be too good to be true, especially the very light weight for an airbeam, but then it's only 3000mm HH fabric and single skin (no inner bedroom), but on the other hand pump and battery are built in and they usually weigh a bit!
Read the Trustpilot reviews! .... especially the 1* ones! Not reassuring! With reviews, sadly the truly glowing 5* ones are all too often faked! I usually take more heed of the middling to low ones as a truer representation. https://www.trustpilot.com/review/reactiveoutdoor.com?stars=1
I looked up their address with the Post Office, which had been queried on Trustpilot, and it doesn't seem to be recognised as stated on their website! - there is a Henson Way on a Telford Way Industrial Estate, BUT it's Kettering, Northants NOT Birmingham!!!! Some 50 miles away in a different county! Suspicious!
Even if all above board, they ship by the two most notoriously unreliable couriers, so every possibility it'll never show up, then you're at the mercy of their customer care department! Pay by Credit Card, then you have at least one option for reliable refund!
A general observation (IMHO) on the type of tent, largish single skin tents without bedrooms can be a bit chilly, even in summer months, as night time temps often plumet. Another downside of single skin tents is they often drip condensation on you! - inner bedrooms usually protect from that. It's not likely to be the most wind resistant tent with near vertical walls and straight airbeams.
Not making decisions for you, but hope info useful. Good luck.
