  Product Description
This double airbed sits 51cm off the ground, which makes getting in and out significantly easier than standard camping airbeds. The extra height becomes particularly useful after a long day's walking or when you're dealing with stiff joints first thing in the morning. Vango's coil beam construction runs through the core, providing proper spinal support rather than the sagging you get with cheaper welded airbeds. The flocked top surface stops sleeping bags sliding around during the night, and it's noticeably softer against skin than plain PVC. The bed measures 210cm long, so it accommodates taller campers who usually find their feet hanging off standard 190cm models.

Inflation takes about five minutes with a decent electric pump, and the dual-valve system lets you top up pressure without releasing air or deflate quickly when you're packing up. The raised edges around the perimeter add structural rigidity and stop you rolling off during sleep. With a 240kg weight capacity, it comfortably supports two adults without bottoming out. The base is smooth rather than ribbed, so it won't damage groundsheets in tents or awnings. Vango includes handy repair patches in the bag, giving you extra peace of mind and helping you look after your airbed for many seasons of camping comfort.

Designed for reliable comfort on every camping trip, this durable flocked airbed offers a supportive night’s sleep with a soft, velvety surface that feels great against the skin. Easy to inflate with an electric pump, it reaches full firmness quickly and stays comfortable overnight, with only minimal top-ups occasionally needed due to natural temperature changes. Its tough, puncture-resistant construction makes it ideal for weekend adventures, while using an insulated mat underneath helps keep you warm and cosy when camping in cooler weather.

Frequently Asked Questions


What pump do I need for the Vango Hi-Rise Double Flocked Airbed?
You need an electric pump for practical inflation, either a mains-powered model if you're camping with electric hook-up or a rechargeable battery pump for off-grid sites. The valve accepts standard airbed pump nozzles. Manual foot pumps will work but inflating this volume to full firmness takes considerable effort and time. The valve diameter is compatible with most camping pump attachments.
How do I stop the Vango airbed losing pressure overnight?
All airbeds lose some firmness overnight due to air compression and temperature drops, not leaks. Inflate the bed a few hours before sleeping so it reaches ambient temperature, then top it up just before getting in. The dual-valve system lets you add air without releasing pressure. If you're losing significant height, check the valve is fully closed and inspect seams for punctures using soapy water to spot escaping air bubbles.
Will this airbed fit in a standard two-person tent?
The bed measures approximately 137cm wide and 210cm long when inflated. Most two-person tents have sleeping compartments around 210-220cm long but check your specific tent's internal dimensions. The 51cm height means it takes up more vertical space than low-profile airbeds, so you need adequate headroom. In smaller tents, the bed will occupy most of the floor area, leaving limited space for bags.
Can I use the Vango Hi-Rise airbed in a caravan or motorhome?
Yes, the smooth base protects caravan floors and the elevated height makes it practical for temporary sleeping arrangements. The 51cm height works well in fixed bed areas or dinette conversions. Check your available floor space matches the 137cm x 210cm footprint. The groundsheet-friendly base prevents scuffing on vinyl or carpet flooring common in caravans and motorhomes.
What is coil beam construction in the Vango airbed?
Coil beam construction uses vertical air columns running between the top and bottom surfaces, similar to springs in a traditional mattress. This provides better weight distribution and support compared to simple welded chambers that tend to create pressure points. The coil structure maintains a flatter sleeping surface and reduces the rolling-together effect common with cheaper airbeds when two people share.
How cold will I get sleeping on this airbed?
Airbeds conduct cold from the ground because air circulates inside them, unlike foam mats that provide insulation. In spring and summer this is rarely problematic, but autumn and winter camping requires an insulated camping mat or thick blanket underneath your sleeping bag. The elevated height does create an air gap between you and the ground, which offers some benefit compared to low airbeds sitting directly on cold surfaces.
What size bedding fits the Vango Hi-Rise Double airbed?
Standard UK double fitted sheets will be tight because the airbed is 137cm wide compared to 135cm household doubles, and the 51cm depth exceeds most fitted sheet pockets. Double flat sheets work better, or you can use sleeping bags. Purpose-made airbed sheets with deeper elasticated edges provide the best fit. King size sheets offer extra fabric but will have surplus material.
How long does the Vango airbed take to deflate and pack away?
Opening the deflation valve empties most air in under two minutes. You then need to fold the bed lengthways, rolling from the opposite end to the valve to expel remaining air. The whole process takes about five minutes with practice. Starting the roll away from the valve prevents air getting trapped in sections. Some campers use their pump's deflate function to speed up the initial air removal.
