Huge capsule air tent

I'm impressed.

Nice.
I wish they would have shown the 'take-down' part. I wonder how she is going to get it back up into her car?

I wish I hadn't looked

Cool stuff.

That is incredibly cool. I might get my wife to actually camp if we had one of those

Meh... no hot tub

This. She had a tough time getting gravity to assist her. She will need a fork lift to get it back in her car.

Would someone point out to me where the ventilation is for the cooking gear? I see the black square on one end but I never saw it open. It's not enough anyway centered like that and only one. That thing looks like a death chamber.

I wondered about that. There was a stove, a candle, etc. Besides the carbon monoxide, there’s going to be a lot of moisture in there.

The way she had to tug it out of the Jeep and manhandle it into position, it’s going to take a Herculon effort to get it back into it smaller size and into the Jeep.

I like the concept, but not with all of the glass walls.

IDT she did all the video, if any. So there would be help with breaking down. Also the cooking segments could be brief and then the thing ventilated. This is a commercial for the thing, right? But it's misleading, IMO. Spraying for bugs in a sealed environment is just plain stupid.

I'm sorry but I'm very skeptical of everything anymore.

What happens if the wind picks up and it starts rolling?

FWIW at the end of this video the girls pack up the tent.

[WPOZZZ]

Damn, Korean girls camping. That is exactly how my Korean gf would want it, plus a real cabin next door.

Gotta wonder how well sealed the inflatable parts are, or if it will be like a bounce house at a kids birthday party with a gas powered compressor running nonstop

Interesting review here: https://www.4wdtalk.com/sonmez-london-360-discover-inflatable-tent-review/

For some applications, especially here about seven months out of the year, this series of tents is very compelling.

I honestly find this to be very interesting. We are four years away from my youngest son finishing high school, at which point my wife and I will have a lot more free time. I have always loved the concept of overlanding, and something like this tent would go a long way towards making it palatable to my wife.

Geodome.
They used to spray lightweight concrete over inflated balloon tents to create livable structures in one day (sans utilities and windows).

Those didn't last long term as-is, but it's an interesting concept.

For my farm, there are products they sell that are a perfect extra bedroom at certain times of the year, especially Thanksgiving.

Every review I have read has been effusive.

sc_rufctr FTW.

Is there any ventilation in this bubble.
The out gassing of the material would not be fresh as the forest air.

Sounds like all of the windows and doors open and have mosquito netting. Plus I doubt a tent with zippers and Velcro openings is exactly air tight.
