Product Information

My Best Air Tents in 2020 (round-up post) may also give you some more ideas what’s worth looking at. A bespoke footprint is available to protect the groundsheet from uneven ground and to help retain the heat. A bigger uncle, the Vango Odyssey Air 400; or the Odyssey Air 500are for those who need a bit more space for their sleeping area; and for those who want impressive stability and weather resilience. The Odysseys have both: thanks to their inner tension system they can withstand winds up to 70mph. There are good reports on the wind-stability of the Eurohike Genus 400; however, there are always a lot of other factors that can affect the stability of the tent in high winds, not just the tent itself. The airbeams are robust yet flexible, and the Genus 400 does not have big flat surfaces where wind-drag could become an issue.

No doubt that the Eurohike Genus 400 is one of the most popular air tents currently, mostly because of its price: it is one of the cheapest 4-person air tents available. This Eurohike Genus 400 review may give you an idea what to expect if you buy this inflatable tent, if it is worth the money and if there are any alternatives that are worth considering. Though as soon as the sun shines through the large mesh front door, it felt fine; and I began to value the shading that the full, dark panel provides. If you position your tent smartly, it can give decent shading almost throughout the day. There is no footprint, and the tent inflates as ‘flysheet first’. This is extremely handy when you need to pitch it when it is raining: the bedroom stays dry. The Eurohike Genus 400 has a polyester flysheets with a waterproof coating. The magic number is 3000mm HH which is short for Hydrostatic Head – it is enough to know that it is waterproof. What you also need to be aware of, is that this coating can break down under UV light; basically sunlight. So with time it may lose it’s water-proof properties.The tent is secured to the ground by steel pegs and high visibility (red) guy lines that have a high and a low connection point on the air beams. Doors The bedroom divider can be removed if you’d rather have one big bedroom. As a matter of fact, the whole ‘inner tent’ can be removed if you needed more living space during the day. Fully waterproof and breathable. The flysheet has taped seams and has been tested to a hydro static head of 2000 The groundsheet is fully sewn in. Because there is only one door and the large PVC windows cannot be opened, the Eurohike Genus 400 can get really warm inside in the summer. On the other hand, thanks to the light-grey flysheet, it feels bright and less depressing than other tents with the dark indigo blue fabric. Weather protection, fabrics Flysheet The Eurohike Rydal 400 Air sleeps 4 sleeps four in a single bedroom but is very practical in offering extra space for couples.

The bedroom is 240 cms wide and 210 cms long, suitable for 4 persons on people, recommended for two. Pitching The ground sheet has a waterproof rating of 3000mm HH, it is fully sewn in and seam-taped for complete waterproofing. As the Air 400 does not have a 2 nd side door, nor a window on that wall, so the dark blue panel made me feel a wee-bit ‘enclosed’; and the Eurohike Air 400 can feel smaller than it actually is.The Eurohike Air tents – Air 400 & Air 600 – are one of the lowest priced inflatable tents in their respective category. They only come in these two sizes (4 person and 6 person), and only come in one colour (navy blue). You can enter into the tent using the large mesh door at the front, or the smaller door on the side that can folds flat. There is one side-door too. It is very common in this category to have only one side door (the Airgo Air Genus 400 for example does not have a side door at all). If you prefer a quiet corner, without the kids running right across the ‘living room’, then that’s fine; but if you need easy access from all sides than you should consider this! The side door has not got a secondary mesh panel.
