Blow Up Tents
"Blow up tent" is the plain-language name for the same products this site calls inflatable tents and air tents. The phrase covers a quality range so wide it is almost meaningless — from novelty garden inflatables to expedition-grade air-beam tents — so this page is a buyer's filter: the four construction markers that separate a tent you can sell with a straight face from one you cannot, each checked against this catalogue's published figures.
The four markers
A stated working pressure. A real air tent publishes the pressure its beams work at — the Skiff lists 6–7 PSI. No pressure figure, no structure claim. A real mattress construction. Drop-stitch PVC, listed at 15 cm or 25 cm on the documented models, is the material that makes an inflatable floor rigid; an unqualified "air mattress" is a lilo. A pump specification. The pump should state pressure and airflow — here, 20 PSI and 400 L/min with automatic set-pressure stop — because it is half the system. A repair path. A repair kit is in the published packing list of the documented roof models (Skiff, Castle, Osprey) — confirm it on the model you order — and the modular Starry Sky 2 goes further: mattress, body and beams individually replaceable. A blow up tent with no repair story is a disposable with a pump.
The range, briefly
Roof: eight Play.do! models, all documented on the inflatable roof top tents page; published weights run from the 8.4 kg Solo to the 28.55 kg Starry Sky 2. Ground: ridge, tunnel, yurt and dome formats listed from US$95, detailed on the inflatable camping tents page, with a customizable OEM/ODM air tent programme at MOQ 100 sets. If a competitor's blow up tent cannot produce its four markers, you now know what you are looking at.
