Initially we weren't overly convinced by this space, wondering what the point was, but we ended up naturally using the space for our large kitchen set up. The narrower front section has a separate sewn in groundsheet as well as the option to seal the area off completely from the rest of the living space.
VANGO EVOQUE 600 AIRBEAM TENT FREE
The main space is accessed by a side door with porch on one side and larger side door on the other side, in warm weather opening these two doors gives a great cross flow of air through the tent to cool the interior space, it also kids to run free in both directions! They also feature large mesh vents so that you can have the doors shut on balmy summers nights while still getting a crossflow of air through the tent. A family of four (2 children and 2 adults) can happily mooch around inside when the great British weather necessitates.
The tent tapers in towards the front but this somehow becomes unnoticeable, partly because you naturally set your furniture up to make the most of the space. The primary living space in the Maritsa is spacious and light. The porch for the side door has a refreshingly simple pole system, push each end into a plastic pocket et voila - done.Īll in all set up is around 20 minutes if you're already familiar with basic tent pitching techniques, which is brilliant for a tent of this size. We weren't sure about the need for the hefty webbing strap guy lines at either end of the Maritsa and they resulted in some unwanted noise, with the wind creating a loud hum as it moved them around.
The guylines use a Line-Lok system which is easy to use and gets everything nicely secured, these are reflective to avoid night-time falls. The bottom pegging points have adjustable webbing straps so you're able to increase the tension in the flysheet as well as moving it closer to the ground for optimal weather protection. Inflating the five airbeams can be a bit of a workout but once it's done your tent is almost pitched, bar pegging out and fine tuning, so it's well worth the effort and it's so much quicker than pitching a pole style tent.
