I’ve just bought one after seeing one set up and reading the reviews, for the £399 you get a lot of space, it’s only my wife and myself that are going to use it, just the porch and a big main area, no separate rooms so keep that in mind. We also bought the footprint tarp (main room as the porch comes with it) and the carpet from Go outdoors as a package for £80 too.

Our first attempt to pitch this tent was an easy. I did watch a few YouTube videos on generic air tent setting ups and they helped lots for info needed on setting up and taking down. It was very windy too, but after only pegging out three guy ropes it didn’t move at all.

Packing away also went well, first attempt to get it in the bag too.

I never used the pump as we have inflatable paddle boards and the one we have for that has a bigger chamber so can’t comment on that.

We are very happy with this and looking forward to this weekend to use it.

It was just a quick reply, I’ll knock a proper one up after this weekend’s shenanigans in it
