Vango has been a cornerstone of UK camping for decades, and their air bed lineup reflects that experience. From compact singles for backpacking-adjacent car camping to plush raised doubles that rival your mattress at home, there is a Vango air bed for every scenario. Here is a detailed look at what Vango offers heading into summer 2026.
Vango's Design Philosophy
Vango focuses on practical, well-tested designs rather than gimmicks. Their air beds prioritise reliable valve systems, sensible pack sizes and durable materials. You will not find flashy marketing — just beds that work trip after trip.
Single Air Beds
Vango Flocked Single
The entry point to Vango's air bed range. A standard-height single with a soft flocked top, simple twin-valve system and I-beam construction. It packs down to roughly the size of a two-litre bottle and weighs under 2 kg. Perfect for kids or solo campers who want a no-fuss sleeping surface.
Vango Blissful Single
A step up with coil-beam construction for a flatter, more supportive surface. The Blissful single is slightly heavier but noticeably more comfortable. It sits around 22 cm high — enough to feel properly off the ground without needing a raised frame.
Double Air Beds
Vango Flocked Double
Matches the Flocked Single in design but scales up to roughly 185 x 130 cm. Affordable enough to be a first double air bed and durable enough to last several seasons. I-beam construction keeps the weight reasonable for a double.
Vango Blissful Double
Coil construction makes the Blissful Double one of the most comfortable in Vango's range. The surface stays flat under two sleepers of different weights, and the reinforced edges reduce that "about to fall off" feeling. Dimensions are generous at 191 x 137 cm.
Vango Blissful Tall Double
Everything the Blissful Double offers, plus a raised height of approximately 36 cm. A built-in rechargeable pump makes setup effortless — press the button, wait two minutes and you are ready for bed. This is Vango's flagship air bed and competes directly with premium models from Outwell and Coleman.
