12/11/2023 0 Comments Vango airbeam lumen 500![]() Sleeps 3 yes but 2 really really comfortably. I would find it difficult to sleep in as confined a space as tent makers suggest. Although they say that it sleeps four in the bedroom area, I have always questioned this with all tents. The tent copes with very squally winds beautifully and does not leak in heavy rain. The Airbeam has many really nice features like easy sliding guy rope locks and a little velcro belts for tidying away guys at home time so no fiddling about trying to tie them all up. Pop up`s tend to be flimsy and really difficult to unpop. Because I am now past my mid 70`s I wanted an easy but robust tent so that, after a long drive, I was not exhausted with pitching. This tent is the best tent that I have ever owned and, I have had several. My model is the same as the 500 it`s just a Vango Icarus 400 which is a little smaller. Vango continue to be creative with their ideas.Ġ from 0 people found this review helpful, was it helpful to you? Also there are now little pockets to pop the guys into when it is time to pack up and go home. I see that the newer models now have the valves for pumping the beams up in a higher position on the airbeam now so, no more grovelling about on your knees. Because of the `A` frame stablizing belts the tent copes really well with squally weather. Billions of explosions and the tent took it very well, not a mark on it when I checked in the morning. It was for all the world like being in the middle of a huge New Years Eve fire work on the Thames. I experienced hail stones in the tent for the first time last month. I don`t know how I made this model mistake, must have been my OAP brain!Īnyway, the Kinetic Airbeam is still a great little tent. The review of the Icarus 500 by Singingbird above is actually a review on an Airbeam KINETIC 400. ![]() If you have a photo of this Tent click here to upload itīy: Singingbird3 Reason: I own(ed) one Made in: 2012 Rating: Member Uploaded Images - click to enlarge
