Air mattresses are constructed incredibly easily, and consist of basic core ingredients that guarantee the air bed is comfortable and functional.

Is it comfortable?

When the air mattress is first purchased you will discover that it is incredibly comfortable, however, unless you maintain the mattress, it can begin to show signs of wear and tear. You should purchase an air mattress that you can adjust the air to create the perfect platform to sleep on every night.

Usage

Some people like to use their air mattresses as a conventional mattress, and will place it on the box spring base. There are no problems with doing this, as long as you ensure that none of the springs are jagged as they may puncture the mattress.
Yes, there is nothing to stop you placing the air mattress on a bed frame, and some people prefer to use the mattress in this way. It is raised of the floor, comfortable and can easily be stored when, not in use.

Health issues

There are numerous benefits that you will discover when you use the air mattress rather than conventional styles of mattress. This style of mattress will adjust to your body, and ensure that you get a decent night’s sleep.

Is it good for back

The air mattress is excellent if you suffer with back pain as the air pockets allow you to fully adjust your weight until you feel the most comfortable. You will soon discover that any back and neck pain that you may suffer with is quickly helped.

Can it be used long term

There is no reason why you cannot use the air mattress every day and some people prefer them as they are cleaner, more comfortable, and easy to store. You need to ensure that you turn the mattress frequently, and check for tears and damage.

Can it get bed bugs

It is extremely rare that you will see bed bugs on an air mattress as they have nowhere to live and breed.

Can you put it in the washing machine

You should not place the mattress in a washing machine, and if you need to clean the surface this can be done with a damp cloth or sponge.

Can it explode

In extreme cases over inflating an air mattress may cause it to explode, but this does not happen often.

  • good fr back issues
  • no bed bugs or dust mites
  • easy to store

Coleman double high quickbed review

Available in sizes Queen and Twin, the Double-High Quickbed is an exquisitely tall airbed. It has a triple layer elevation designed to give it a height of that of a regular bed. The Double-High Quickbed has a soft and luscious plush top for ultimate comfort and relaxation. It is made of high quality, puncture resistant PVC. It has a Comfort Coil for added support and like all other Coleman mattresses it has a state of the art Coleman Airtight System so the bed stays inflated.

The Intex Raised is an air mattress that is available in Queen sizes only. This raised airbed has a dual chamber construction. The top surface of the airbed is totally waterproof made of heavy duty vinyl. It is inflated or deflated with an electric, high powered and built in pump. The lower chamber of the Intex Raised acts as a box spring to provide sustainable support. The approximate size of the airbed is dependent on how much it is inflated however it is estimated to be eighteen inches. It weighs twenty two pounds approximately.

Insta Raised Bed review

Available in sizes Queen and Twin, the Insta Raised comes with a NeverFlat pump that conveniently inflates and deflates it. The pump has to be switched on even during use so that the bed can stay fully inflated. When inflated it acquires a dimension of around eighty inches. The raised height makes it easier for its sleeper to get in and out of bed.
