Vango airbeam awning review full#
The Vango AirHub Hexaway Low is the perfect half way house between the compromise of sleeping in a cramped van, and the hassle of erecting a full on tent with poles, or event a large traditional pole awning. The rear of the awning Hexaway is the way! We attached it to the van via sturdy Velcro straps which connect straight to the roof rails, and then secured it down using the over vehicle webbing straps which go over the vehicle and get pegged into the ground on the other side – a handy feature that also allows the awning to be attatched to vehicles without roof rails. This gave us a bit of adjusting to do to get it nicely secured to the van but it was no real set back. We did make one school boy error and that was to pump air into the structure before we had attached it to the van.

I was sure we would be pumping well into the evening but to my surprise, once it starts taking shape, the whole thing goes up quickly and seamlessly. Vango includes 3 rather than just one because it makes the structure easier and quicker to deflate. There are three air valve inflation points to choose from. I was struck by how light and manegable the whole structure was and how uncomplicated it was to set up once we ditched the instructions! Once we had laid it all out in our carefully chosen spot, we located the inflation point so we could attach the pump and begin inflating. His was my first time setting up an AirBeam and I found it quick and easy
