01 — The design

NO POLES.
Just air.

The space of a small cabin with the portability of a tent. Pump it up, step inside, stand up straight.

Inflatable TPU air beams replace every pole, so there's nothing to thread, snap or lose. Vertical walls and an 8.2 ft cathedral ceiling make it feel like a room. Inside there's a private sleeping cabin, out front a covered porch for boots, bikes or a camp kitchen, and pane-style windows with privacy blinds all round. It's made for family weekends, festivals and glamping sites that want a cabin feel without building one.

Inside the Nimbus: a made-up bed under the air-beam ceiling with large windows — “A cabin in a bag. Five minutes to home.”

06 — Questions

GOOD TO
know.

Something we didn't cover? Call (949) 308-1038 or email info@trendtents.com.

How long does it really take to set up?

About five minutes for one person. Stake out the corners, connect the included hand pump and inflate the air beams, then stake and tension the guylines. No poles to thread and no tools beyond the mallet in the bag.

Is an inflatable tent strong enough in wind?

Yes. The Nimbus is rated to 50 mph. Instead of bending or snapping like a pole, the TPU air beams flex in a gust and spring back. Stake every point and tension all 15 guylines in windy conditions. In our own field testing it rode out a 30 mph gust and recovered its shape.

What if an air beam loses air?

Air beams hold pressure well, but check them when you arrive and top them up with the hand pump if the walls soften, especially when temperatures drop overnight. Contact us if you ever have a leak, since every Nimbus has a 1-year warranty.

How many people does it sleep?

4 in the sleeping cabin (9.2 × 8.5 ft), with room for 1–2 more on the porch, so 4–6 in all. With 8.2 ft at the peak and 6.2 ft at the eaves, most adults can stand up inside.

Is it waterproof?

Yes. The 280 gsm polyester canvas has a 1,500 mm PU coating and dries fast, and the 500 gsm PVC bathtub floor rises up the walls to keep water out. Let it dry before packing it away for long.

Can I use it year-round?

It's built for all-season, semi-permanent use with a 50 mph wind rating, privacy blinds and mesh on every opening. There's no stove jack, so for heating in cold weather use a heater that's safe for tents.
