![]() Please follow the links to read more.AT Easter we invited another family to come camping with us at Wowo. Both are air-beam tents but there are differences in the design and features. See how this Odyssey Air 600 tent compares with its cousin built in a somewhat similar style. Vango Odyssey Air 600 Tent vs Vango Capri 600XL The inner doors (you have them two) are part mesh to allow for ventilation whilst keeping bugs out. The windows are solid PVC material, very clear to maximize light and visibility. The seams are factory taped and this applies for all flysheet and groundsheet where you have a waterproof PE material, robust and hard-wearing, built to stand up to the rigors of the most active campers. It is weather tested to the European standard EN5912 by the certified test center. The waterproof rating is 4000 mm, so this is a highly waterproof material, reasonably durable and reliable fabric. You have Vango Protex 70 denier polyester flysheet. You have Vango AirZone high and low-level ventilation panels which create a comfortable flow of air.The inner divider can be rolled away when not in use.When not needed, they can be stowed away, see one of them shown below. The bands brace the pole at 3 points, and prevent sideways movement. You have patented Vango TBSII Tension Band System for tent’s stability in adverse conditions.The entrance has a full mesh door for ventilation and for keeping bugs out.You have lantern hanging points conveniently positioned to attach lights.The two bedrooms are spacious ISO standard sized.The carry bag is oversized and with 50% more volume, see it in the picture below.You have inner pockets conveniently positioned for organizing your small items.But the sleeping area is indeed completely sealed. The bad is that the sitting area is not sealed from the ground, neither from water nor from the crawling creatures. If you do not need it, you simply roll it under the bedroom area. The good is that it is easy to clean it as it can be attached or detached from the living area. The sitting area here is with a linked-in groundsheet, so this has both good and bad sides. ![]() ![]() The packed size is around 70 x 37 x 36 cm, so this is really good, but its weight is around 17.5 kg, so you will need a vehicle for transportation. Its weather resistance is such that it is a true 3-season tent. The tent is obviously suitable for groups and for families. The declared capacity of this tent is 6 people. So this is a hybrid design with one part of the tent single-layer and the sleeping zone is a double layer structure. See the floor plan below: The floor plan and dimensions.Īs you realize from the picture above, there is space of a few centimeters between the inner and the outer tent on all sides, and this is good for ventilation. The tent is with two external doors and two inner doors, and it is tunnel-type with 3 air loops that create its tunnel structure. This implies that you have a 3-room tent here, with two sleeping units and a large sitting zone. You have an inner sleeping area tent attached to the external shell. The inner tent is a “light-out” area, with two doors and a divider. This is a new trend in the family camping tents’ design, see it below. So you have an inner layer which makes the interior darker and you can sleep longer in the morning, or take a nap during the day. The meaning of this term is similar to dark rest or dark room phrase. The air beams are pre-angled to achieve a greater internal space, and they provide effective bracing against side winds. All you need is a pump which is included in the package and you can raise the tent from the ground in a few minutes. Instead, you have 3 air beams which support the tent. The meaning of this is that you do not have classic metal poles. Very reliable and great weather protection.
