Vango Odyssey Family Tunnel Tent

Product Information

This allows you to store boots and gear outside of the tent without fear of anything getting soaked, and it also provides some sun protection if you wish to sit outdoors. The living compartment has 75 square feet of space, while the sleep area measures 67.5 square feet for a triple-space shelter. Choosing the best air tent isn’t always an easy process. There are a lot of different products out there to choose from, and each comes with its own benefits and negatives to consider. Our advice is to take some time thinking about the features that you need from your air tent before you begin looking. If you’re concerned about bad weather sweeping your tent off into the hills, you needn’t be. In actual fact, inflatable tents tend to hold up better in rough conditions, as you won’t have to worry about poles collapsing on you. The tent will still be fixed down with pegs and guy ropes, just like a traditional tent. No matter where it belongs, this is a very tall tent with an 82.7 inches (210 cm) peak height. The tent can be described as a 3-room structure. It includes an inner tent with two separate rooms (see the picture below) and a divider between them, plus a large living room in front of it. Vango’s Odyssey 800 model is a vis-a-vis tunnel tent that we feel is a great option for families or large groups of friends. Well-designed and sporting multiple living compartments, it has a spacious interior that gives you roughly 230 square feet of total floor space. At 50 lbs., its pretty lightweight for a large tent, and the 6.5 foot peak height ensures the majority of campers will be able to move around easily while inside.

No, this is probably condensation. Make sure the tent is properly ventilated to keep condensation at a minimum. It was roomy, and I liked the dual-side opening, we used different doors on different days depending on the weather, How many people do you want to go camping with, and how large does your tent need to be to accommodate everyone? Do you want something that just has plenty of bedrooms, or do you require a tent that comes with a living area, too, where people can relax when they’re not ready to go to sleep? b. How Easy is It to Use? The Vango Airbeam 600 inflatable tent features a state-of-the-art inflatable beam structure designed to take the stress and headaches of pole-based pitching off your shoulders. Within a matter of minutes, you can have your family tent up and ready to use – no sweating or struggling required. When a zipper is running smoothly, use a dry PTFE spray or silicone spray. Do not spray onto the cloth and preventively spray to prevent future problems.Seasons-wise, the tent is with a very high waterproof rating of 4000 mm. This is a very impressive number again, so the tent will surely protect you from the rain in any weather situation. This is a true 3-season tentdesigned by a company located in Scotland, so imagine, they know what real rain is.

Regarding the price, it is steep, but this is a quality tent from a globally-known brand. Perhaps you do not know, the Vango brand was established decades ago in the city of Govan in Scottland. The sitting room is floored, but the floor is not sewn in; it is linked it. This means you can also remove it when you need to clean it or when you do not want it in the living area. However, the inner tent (the sleeping area) is completely floored separately, and here you have a bathtub floor, so this is a tent within the tent. Note that the Capri 600 from the same brand is with a sewn-in floor. This should give you a good idea visually of the different designs, plus an overview of the specifications allow you yo pinpoint your need, whether its square footage, weight, height or design features etc. Where the tent excels and where it falls short, from comfort and ease of set up to versatility, weather resistance, and durabilityAfter all, it’s hard to find another tent – traditional, inflatable or otherwise – which can balance these three factors quite so elegantly. When choosing the right inflatable tent for you, you have similar considerations to that of buying a pole tent: how many people it sleeps, whether you can stand up inside, and whether it has mosquito netting, for example. You have already seen the floor plan and the rooms’ structure. Here, to stress that you have two doors, one on the front and one side door. The latter is without mesh, pity, cannot understand the logic of this. Vango SkyShield’s are easily attached by slipping it over the top of your tent and connecting it at each beam to keep it secure. Available for all AirBeam® tents except: • AirHub Hex • Solace TC 400 • Illusion TC 400XL & 800XL • Maritsa TC 600XL

Hybrid single-double layer structure: The tent is a double-layer type in the sleeping area where you have the inner tent attached to the outer shell. The sitting zone is a single layer structure. The arched shape of the tent with the doors on the side means that any water or condensation off the top of the tent runs down the side and drips into the tent because the doors are on the sloping side While the tent does lose some structural integrity from the absence of tent poles, it also means there is no chance the poles themselves will puncture the tent fabric if something heavy falls on the tent. Room tent: There are two main parts here,see the floor plan below, the sitting area and the sleeping zone. The latter is with a divider so you can split it into two parts,one for 2 people and the other for 3 people. All in all, you have 3 units inside.

The Vango Odyssey 500 is made using Protex 3,000HH polyester that is durable. It is also waterproof making it ideal for all year round. The groundsheet is made using polyethylene 10,000HH that is comfortable and strong enough for pitching on almost all terrains. The factory taped seams on both the flysheet and groundsheet have been known to provide the best water tight seal. It also has an Airspeed Valve system for inflating airbeams with less effort. We recommend it. While the Odyssey tents come with sewn-in and/or clip-in polyethylene groundsheets, using a footprint with any tent will prolong the life of the tent, so you can enjoy it for many years. Couples that are looking for a functional tent that can be pitched in a matter of minutes might really like the Air 400 Odyssey model from Vango. Using their AirBeam technology, the tent comes with a pump that inflates the shelter’s “frame”, eliminating the use of traditional tent poles. Odyssey tents include everything you need to pitch it – including stakes. We would, however, recommend upgrading them. The provided stakes aren’t terrible, but a set of heavy-duty stakes will secure the tent better and they will also last longer. Should I use a footprint for Vango tents?
