Inflatable Drive away awning

Post by ChrisTriple »

Hi all can anyone recommend me an inflatable drive away awning, it needs to have a separate bedroom part and a sewn in ground sheet.

There seem to be lots about for lots of money, or can anyone recommend a place to go see them? I'm in the Cotswolds

I bought an Olpro Loopo Breeze.
It comes with a sewn in groundsheet and you can buy an inner tent separately to make a bedroom.
Pretty good value for money compared to other brands.
Maybe not quite as good quality as the Vango brand but pretty good.

I have a Vango Kela. Highly recommended. It was expensive but with this you get great quality IMHO. I love it that I can put this up in 10 minutes.

Much bigger and you won't fit on some campsite pitches.

My current ones much bigger and I've never had an issue. That ones just over 2 meters of useable length, and no where to fit my current king size air bed :ok

We have the vango Sapera, which is great. Had it a few years now, it came with a separate bedroom inner which we don't use, is a nice space, good Windows etc. I put a new fig 8 rail on the high top above the door to raise the awning and use fig 8 strips with a piece of kador/keder strip to make it easier to attach and detach from the van. Find it stays on better than using the gutter, pole and clamp etc. The awning also comes with long straps to chuck over the van and guy to the ground as an alternative. The tunnel between the van and awning proper is also very useful.
Easy to put up and deflate too.

Think I've found what I'm looking for a Vango Galli, not cheap but I think it's going to be easier to put up and down and the added bonus of a sewn in grownsheet our current ones don't have :ok

Hi

We have a Khyam Driveaway Aerotech 4XL. Its big but it does fit on most normal pitches. It has 4 airbeams and takes about 20 mins to put up.

Not cheap but very good quality.

Cheers
