Coleman Raised QuickBed Airbed (Queen)

I was so excited to try this airbed on our camping trip. But......it was a total disaster. Who ever designed this obviously didn't try sleeping on it. There are not enough separate cells in this mattress so it is one mass of air. Since my husband weighs more than me: he sank into the mattress and I was on a higher bump. After one night of sliding to the low side, my husband slept on the tent floor after that. I threw the mattress away when i got home,
Its a great idea, to bad it wasn't designed more carefully.

this mattress has been great. i needed something right away, and wasn't ready to commit to a several hundred dollar regular mattress, which i might not be able to move when i needed to. this came the next day and i've been sleeping peacefully since

Be carefull today after 3 weeks of use i called coleman CUSTOMER CARE DEPARMENT for a replace or refund it TAKES 46 WEEKS, You have to send the valve, the bar code the receive and the label and WAIT FOR YOUR MONEY OR THE REPLACEMENT 46 WEEKS ONLY.

This bed supose to be flat like all the beds but it turned like a ballon. It not funny you cannot sleep at all.

I frequently have guests over and originally bought two coleman air mattresses several years ago, this was when airbeds were first becoming popular. The original airbeds I bought were about the same cost as this one ($50), but they weren't raised. I didn't have much luck with them. By morning my guests would be lying on the floor because they'd both slowly deflate. So, thinking ahead to the upcoming holiday season and the fact that I'll have overnight guests again in the near future I purchased this to replace one of my old ones. Based on the results I've had with it, I'll purchase another one soon.

I inflated it and left it filled for a week. During that time, I was on it as much as possible to see if it would deflate any.. it didn't. Also, I found it to be very comfortable, as comfortable as my 'real' bed. I can see many improvements in this airbed over my old coleman ones I purchased years ago:

+ the vinyl is thicker so it's less likely to be punctured
+ the valve has a double locking system so it doesn't leak air
+ the height makes it far easier to get out of in the morning (particularly for older guests)
+ the 'rolled storage' is more convenient and compact. It'll definitely take up less space in my closet!

I have used the more expensive Aerobeds in the past and in my opinion comfort is exactly the same as with this model (I mean, frankly it's all just air contained within a vinyl rectangle..). The main differences are that the Aerobed comes with a tote for storage and travel, and the Aerobed has a built in pump. Frankly I don't think those features are worth paying any extra $150 for. With this model you'll need to buy a pump. I bought one many years ago for $12 and it still works just fine. The air valve on this airbed is a universal size, so it'll work with any cheap electric pump you buy either on Amazon or at a sporting goods store.

However, just a note, that in my opinion, air beds (whatever brand) are not good options for long term, daily use.

Fills quickly and is super comfy. Nice thing is that it rolls up compactly and has its own carrying case. I will never go back to sleeping on the ground when camping!
