Inflatable tents are heavier than pole tents due to the pump and fabric used to manufacture the air tubes. Portability also impacts weight, so it's important to prioritize convenience over mobility.
Blow-up tents are limited in shapes and sizes, with most models only able to accommodate four to eight people. If you have a bigger family, the bigger the tent, the heavier it will be.
Inflatable tents are still a novelty, but they may not last as long as other camping supplies due to their more fragile construction and need more maintenance.
A blow-up tent requires a pump, which can be manual or electric. Manual pumps can be exhausting to inflate, while electric pumps are faster and lighter.
Inflatable tents are more expensive than traditional tents due to premium materials, new technology, and rigorous testing before release.
