Living Room and Bedroom
9 sqm living area with an inner tent height of 2.25 m. This tent includes several accessories: - A foldaway zipped basin-shape groundsheet at the entrance in case of rain - Transparent shuttered windows - Shuttered mosquito net window - Storage pockets in the bedrooms and living room The bedrooms on the right side can be removed to create an immense living area. Each bedroom in this tent is intended to accommodate a maximum of two 70 cm wide mattresses.
Pitching and dismantling:
Inflatable all-in-one structure with pre-assembled bedrooms and flysheet. Using our Quechua Ultim Comfort pump with built-in pressure gauge, we recommend that you inflate the tubes to 7 PSI of pressure. To view this pump, copy the reference 8601387 and paste it into the search engine of our website. PUMP NOT INCLUDED We recommend two-person assembly Floor surface area with guy ropes:34.5m2
Sun protection:
Our Fresh&Black technology relies on a UPF 50+ sun protection fabric. Caution: be careful, as a large amount of UV rays can get in through a simple open door.
Ventilation:
The ventilated flysheet on the living area airs the room and reduces condensation inside your tent. Outside each bedroom is a high ventilation hatch. Inside each bedroom is a large, low ventilation hatch. The living room comes with a mosquito net and the bedrooms with high mosquito nets.
Wind resistance:
We test all our tents in a wind tunnel on a turntable. The aim is to expose each side of our tent to the same wind intensity. Well pitched with the guy ropes properly anchored, this tent remains habitable in a force 7 wind, measured at 60 km/h. Feel free to re-inflate your inflatable poles regularly during your stay at the campsite (7 PSI).
Waterproofing:
We test our tents to validate their waterproofing. The first test is done in the laboratory, 3 hours under 200 litres of water per hour per sqm, equivalent to 200 mm tropical rain per hour. The second test is done in the field under real-life conditions by our teams. This tent is fitted with a polyurethane-coated polyester flysheet measuring 2,000 mm. It also has seams taped using heat-sealed strips and a 190 g/sqm polyethylene groundsheet.
Don't throw away, repair !
As designers and practitioners who love our playground, we care about the durability of our products. That's why all our tents are designed to be repairable. Spare parts and repairs for inflatable hoops are available at the workshop of your Decathlon store or on our website.
Maintenance advice:
Our camping tents have been designed for occasional outdoor use (4 weeks per year) when camping or in the great outdoors. Continued exposure to UV rays over several weeks can damage the fabric. These products are not classified as “garden furniture” and aren’t designed to be left outdoors permanently. To guarantee maximum durability of your tent, it's important to store it when not in use.
Poles and tent pegs:
Inflatable poles - All our inflatable poles have a two-layer arch structure: a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) air chamber and a 600-denier polyester cover*. Living room reinforcement - There's an aluminium bar in the living room to stiffen the structure. Tent pegs - All our pegs are made of steel and have a diameter of 6 mm. 6 ground pegs are included. *600 denier indicates a weight of 600 g for 9 m length.
The Fresh & Black technology keeps the inside of your tent cooler and darker:
Cooler and darker for better sleep! Fresh & Black is a technology patented by Decathlon that reflects the sun's rays and insulate the light through specific materials. This reduces the sensation of heat in the tent and makes it darker. To get the most out of this technology, don't forget to ventilate your tent at night!
