Very comfy & doesn't loose ai
Bought for our caravanning trips as i like to sleep in the awning.
Very comfy, easy to inflate and doesn’t deflate during the night like some airbeds do.
Instructions warn that the material may stretch when first used, giving the impression it might have deflated slightly, but mine didn’t do this.
Integral motor with the storage compartment for the plug and power cable, behind a plastic flap/door.
I imagine the plastic flap/door might break in time, and the internal compartment for storing the power cable & plug could do with being a bit larger.
Deflates easily using the internal motor.
Shame it doesn’t come with a storage/carry bag.
I’ll be buying a second one soon for my young lad to use for sleepovers etc.
Highly recommend!! Works well, good quality and easy to use !
I’ve never had an air mattress before, but needed a couple of guest beds so I recently bought two of these. Very pleased!!
Why? 1) EASY – very quick & easy to inflate & deflate with a simple turn of the dial ! 2) STURDY – it is NOT flimsy – the plastic is thick and has a lovely velour-type top surface. 3) COMFY – I use mattress toppers for a bit of extra padding, as the surface of the bed is quite firm when inflated 4) STORAGE – packs away neatly into it’s box – just take a note of how it came out of the box when you unpack it, so it makes it easier when you come to put it back. I’d recommend it 🙂
Great, easy to inflate and useful
to know they needed reflating as the plastic expanded over the next couple of days. Only problem was we have a very tall lass sleeping on one! Having an extra long option would be helpful!!
So easy to put up
The Active Era Premium single size bed is very comfortable to sleep in. It is very easy to inflate and is up and running within 2 minutes. I have bought this product after buying two of their double double beds in the last two years and recommending it to my son who also bought one.
It is also very easy to deflate.
The bed is very hard wearing. One very minor point is that whilst it folds reasonably well it is difficult to get it back into the original box. If you can live with that (and I do) them this is good purchase to have.

single inflatable bed
Excellent just what I needed for when my daughter comes to stay. So convenient and comfortable. You have space during the day, then a proper size height inflatable bed during the night.
My daughter says it very comfortable and can use the automatic pump to pump up by its, and defrlate whenever needed.
When not in use she deflates it, folds it up and put it in a large clear bag, and puts it away until she needs to use it again.
Good bed
Been using this as a temporary bed for a couple of weeks and no complaints. It inflates very quickly and it only needs a little inflation boost after a few days. Great that you can just plug it in so no effort required to inflate the bed. You get to know the level of inflation you find most comfortable. As others mention it can be a little cold to lie on but I put a mattress cover over it plus a soft blanket and it is fine. I haven’t tried folding it up yet but no reason to foresee any issues with that. A very good purchase.

Really comfortable
I bought this air bed because it is just small enough to fit in my tiny room (seriously, half an inch wider and it wouldn’t have worked). It turned out to be a really comfortable mattress, and I daresay that it’s even as comfortable, if not more comfortable than the mattress that I normally use. It was easy to set up and take down, and although I did have a bit of trouble trying to get it to fit in the box again (I managed after a while), it was overall a really good mattress.

Impressed
I needed to buy a guest bed and my first thought was one of the folding ones with a rigid frame. It wasn’t until I started looking around that I came across the inflatable type. I had no idea how they performed but was attracted by the relatively lower price and so I took a gamble. I’m glad I did.
The first obvious point to note was the small amount of space the bed takes up when deflated. That’s a real advantage for me. Secondly, comfort. 10 out of 10 on that score. My guest says he had a very comfortable night. There’s also the added advantage of being able to inflate it to the firmness that you prefer. It’s also very light to carry and move around but the material it is made from feels substantial and not liable to burst. The bed also inflates in about a minute and a half and the electrical pump has a feeling of power to it. It’s rather noisy, though, so it’s best to inflate it before other members of the household are asleep.
I would heartily recommend this bed with no reservations.
Life Save
Bought this product as I need to stay with disabled Hubby whilst he is in Hospital. Do not get a lot of sleep but the little naps I do get are very comfortable because of this product. so far 7 days in, the mattress has only needed the odd top up. Only downside is , it is a bit embarrassing to inflate as it is SO NOISY. The mattress does squeak quite a bit when you move in bed which could be a bit disconcerting if you are a couple staying overnight somewhere. Could do with some better labeling of the knob for deflating / inflating etc. otherwise as advertised buy with confidence if you need one.
etains air.
he bed is well made and the fitted pump works very quickly both inflate and deflate, which is an excellent idea to prepare the bed for storage after use. My bed has been used intermittently for two weeks and has lost very little air. Apparently it is quite comfortable and the air pressure can be adjusted for individual preference regarding firmness. i must say the pump is quite loud and I wonder if perhaps it would be better placed on the pillow side which is generally against a wall, only a suggestion, but overall pleased with this purchase and the ease of both assembly and storage preparation.
Very comfy
Bought this Air Mattress as my son was having mates over and didn’t have enough beds, by the time they left, the three of them had all had to have a nights sleep on it. They all loved it, and one even went as far as to say it was more comfortable than his own bed. It only took about 2 minutes for it to inflate and about the same to deflate.
WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS AS A SPARE BED.
Initially I was very impressed. This airbed is higher than average, making it a good guest bed for visitors with stiff joints. It has coped successfully with tall and heavy guests.
It also provides quite a firm and supportive position at first, although, as the night wears on, it tends to deflate slightly, tipping the user towards the centre. I found one had to reckon on re-inflating at least once during the night, in order to maintain firm back support. Inflation, via the built-in electric pump is rapid enough that this is not particularly onerous.
The motor can also be used to deflate the bed after use, preparatory to storage.As well as this inbuilt motor, which comes with a UK plug attached, there is a valve, enabling the bed to be inflated using an external pump, if desired.
The extended raised area at the head is intended to be used as a pillow. I didn’t find this the right angle for me, personally, but it does not interfere with using a pillow, if desired.
The flock surface did wear away after a while, making the bed rather sweaty if used without sheets. This is really an easily stored guest bed, rather than for camping.
Nevertheless I was, on the whole, quite pleased with this purchase – until the day when it sprang a sudden hole! It spontaneously cracked. The split was about 4″ long, following the curve of one of the ‘air coils’. Since an attempt to repair the puncture (with a puncture repair kit intended for airbeds) proved unsuccessful, that was the end of it. It failed after 13 months and around 80 uses.

he best air mattress!
Bought this for Christmas as we needed an extra bed for my son. Great service and delivery (at this time of year!). The seller was great at contacting me to check we received it and that quality was what I expected. Indeed it was! Highly recommend this product if you need an elevated bed, as it acts like a proper bed without taking up too much space.

Fantastic robust produc
I’ve only used the air bed a couple of times so far. In all honesty it has been exceptional. I have wasted money in the past on sub standard inflatable beds that have been made from cheap materials or they have simply deflated during the night. To date this product has not let me down. It has an extremely handy internal air pump which is quick and efficient. The A/C plug is a nice edition that has plenty of length on it to get to a plug socket with a handy little compartment to store it away when not in use. It’s a doddle to delflate and unlike any bed I’ve had before actually folds to a size that is manageable.
I bought the product when it was in the sale which was an absolute bargain and would recommend this to anyone looking for a quality piece of equipment.

Nicely made item
Nicely made and robust item. Purchased as extra bed for Christmas guests. Inflated rapidly and held pressure with one top up after initial use. Single bed under-sheets cannot be tucked in due to height of inflated bed from floor. Probably best used with a sleeping bag. Not long enough for anyone over 5′ 6″ height though great for children. Rapidly deflated but impossible to get it small enough to fit original bag for storage. Durability over long term not assessed but looks well made with robust seams.

Great inflatable bed and love the switch
I already had a couple of Intex beds and thought I would give this one a try. It was just as good as the equivalent Intex versions. And, I really like the switch – turn to inflate and turn to deflate. No separate on off switch. My only gripe with all these beds is will it survive minor ‘injuries’. One of my Intex beds has developed a slow puncture – hence buying this one. Lets see how it goes. So far so good.
Used most days for over a year as child’s bed. Pretty happy with it until about a month ago when one of the seams developed a leak. Fixed that with pvc boat patch, then 2nd hole appeared in same seam, fixed that, then 3rd hole appeared in……you’ve guest it, the same seam. Now on fourth repair (hot glue gun works quite well) but still a slow leak somewhere.
Update: The maker of this product has demonstrated great Customer service so I have changed my rating on that basis. Despite being over a year old and thus out of warranty, they have fully refunded me having seen the issues in my original review. I may use the refund to buy another (though the price has gone up now!).

Inflates really quickly, the pump is also used to deflate the bed !
Appears to be strong and well made, inflats really quickly and arrived really quickly, the pump is quite loud, so you would not want to inflate it late at night if others are asleep, you would need to inflate it much earlier, it’s very comfortable had this now for quite a few months brilliant only one question How the flipping heck do you fold it back up again to put it back in the box ? lol
I was a bit worried when I made the order for this air bed as there were many negative reviews (along with the positive ones) mostly around the problem of leaks.
I received the mattress without any problems and used it and am pleased to say that I did not find any leaks at all. The bed is quite high and in that way a bit different from other air mattresses that I have used before.
As mentioned in other reviews, once it is inflated, even after fully deflating, it does not go inside the original box and you will need to have a slightly larger box to store it.
Overall I am happy to give this mattress five stars.

Excellent Guest Bed
Bought this as a spare guest bed and very pleased with it – I read the reviews beforehand and followed the guidance that you should inflate 2-3 days prior to use and re-inflate each day otherwise it can deflate. But once we did this and our guest arrived on day 3 the bed was great.
There is an in built pillow which can be quite firm for some people but other than that I certainly recommend – it is as near to a divan bed as you can get I would think for an inflatable.
Also very easy to inflate with the built in motor.
Great little bed.
Inflates easily, with an integral pump, stayed inflated all throughout Christmas. In fact, the person using it said that they hadn’t realised they were in a blow-up bed (might just have been being polite!). My only gripe is that it’s not possible to fit a sheet onto it. Single size is way too small; we had to settle for a droopy double. Not the end of the world though, the important thing is that it was very comfortable to sleep in and I was very happy to get it in the Black Friday sale, it was an absolute bargain.

Fabulous!!
I often wonder if these reviews are all genuine but I still read them and do put some value on what I buy when I read them. This product arrived within 24 hours of purchasing it. My mother lives in a one bedroom bungalow so when I or my nephew go to visit, we end up sleeping on the sofa. Not a disaster but not ideal either. She bought a very expensive single pull out sofa bed which was the most uncomfortable thing I’ve ever slept on. My cousin then recommended this bed. I was dubious as they hadn’t yet tried it out but I’ve now used it and so has my 74 year old mu. It’s amazing!! I had a great nights sleep on it and I can honestly say, it’s one of the most comfortable blow up beds I’ve ever slept on. In fact, I can’t even believe it’s a blow up bed!! Not only is it comfortable to sleep on… the ease and speed in which you can put in up and dismantle it is fantastic. This bed is great value for money and a great buy if you have the odd visitor and don’t have room for a permanent bed. I’m extremely impressed!
Very happy with these
Bought for guests, we checked overnight to see if it leaked and it did not, so we bought another, which also did not leak. Now we feel confident. If they let us down, I’ll update my review in January.
Meanwhile, this mattress is better than the Mangar Elk for lifting me if I fall. That has like a giant pumping station with it and needs to be plugged in all the time to keep its battery charged.
The instructions with the Active Era aren’t so great. The electric plug and wire are hidden away next to the motor, but they are there. The motor dial has to be turned to Off one you’ve inflated the mattress, it doesn’t seal completely while inflating (or if you just switch the motor off at the wall.) I suppose that’s a safety function so the mattress won’t explode or something.
Needed a suitable mattress for my family who were visiting for a few days from seas. We didn’t have space for a third bed so looked at these. Price is excellent value for money and the item is brilliant. I don’t know why people had issues folding this back into its original box. If you deflate it properly and fold it properly it goes back fine. It is a tight box though. Even when it arrived it was tight. Amazed at the built in pump. It inflated for me within 35 seconds. Deflated about the same. Highly recommended. Comes with patches as well. I wouldn’t say this had a built in pillow. It’s more like a bump so will ignore there claim that it has one. Build quality seems very good. Valves seems strong too. Its also quite sturdy. It doesn’t want to fold over or collapse. Very impresssed. 5/5
High quality extra bed for guests
I’ve purchased this mattress as extra bed in the house and I am really pleased with it. Inflates in no time and you can adjust the firmness by how much you inflate it.
I needed to top it up then second night to compensate for the flexibility of the material. But had a great night sleep woke up with no back pains.
I got email tips from the manufacturer;
Inflation:
We always recommend inflating the mattress 2 hours before you plan to go to bed to allow the material to stretch. Before you go to sleep simply top up the bed up with air to your desired firmness and settle down for a great night’s sleep.
I do recommend it.
Very good value
I haven’t yet slept on this but it arrived in good time and seems very easy to use. I inflated it yesterday, just to see how well it keeps it’s pressure overnight and so far it seems perfect. I have seen some on the market that will inflate electrically but not deflate, so the ability to suck the air out using the electric pump is great as it is so quick to put away for future use. I will update if I have any problems sleeping on it over the next few weeks, but from what I have seen I think it’s a fantastic piece of kit for the price.

Fantastic guest bed
This is a fantastic spare bed. It inflates in less than 2 minutes using a plug which is hidden away in a compartment. The bed is extremely comfortable and well worth the money. To deflate, you plug it in again and turn a dial, this takes about 3 minutes. It goes back to deflated size very quickly and therefore is not bulky to store. I’ve used airbeds before but this so much easier to set up and store. After sales service is brilliant with handy tips on how to keep it clean etc. Would definitely recommend.
get ALL air out on deflatio
as my grandchildren were coming to stay I needed a bed but do not have room for a permanent one so I got the air bed I was a sceptical it would be to soft and floppy, but was very pleased to find it was very good just like a proper bed it did as it said turn it on it was up in no time same to put down but you must make shur all the air is out roll up and squiese tight it will go back in box then and go in a wardrobe pab south Yorkshire

I live in France but go back to UK every 6-8 weeks & stay at mums. I bought this mattress as my usual manual blow up mattress was very uncomfortable. It arrived quickly. I got it out of the box, infolded it, plugged it in. Within 1 1/2 minutes it was up. It’s a bit noisy so you’ll have to make sure to inflate it before your neighbours go to bed if you live in a flat. Its amazingly comfortable. It’s nice and high like a normal bed. It was firm enough for me after the first deflation and didn’t go down at all. After 5 days I plugged it in & deflated it. Deflated very quickly. I folded it carefully pushing the little bit of air out, folded it up & put it in a zip up vacuum bag, (I didn’t use a hoover though, just manually expelled the air & zipped it up). I don’t think it’s possible to put it back in the box. It’s on top of my mums wardrobe till next time.
It is definately comfortable and lasts once pumped up to the required fullness
I have a double aero bed and wanted a second but smaller one. I am impressed with the quality and have tried the mattress for comfort. It is definately comfortable and stays pumped up to the required fullness?
The fact that it has an inbuilt pump is a definite bonus. It packs down to such an amazingly small size, which is an added bonus especially as it does not take up much storage room. A very good purchase!!

Excellent well made and well constructed product. Good Value for money
Excellent and well made having used it non stop as my primary bed was being replaced. High level of comfort and support and only needed minimal re inflating over 5 days of use. Couple of small points for future product improvement : Is there a way to see a gauge or reading to see when it was getting to full level. Was very concerned that it might burst as there is no automatic cut off to the pump. Second, on wood floors there is significant noise when you move around but on carpet less so at night. Is there a way the matting that covers one side of the bed could be on both sides as it would provide grip and dampen noise.

The bed is very comfortable but also sturdy so it doesn’t dip if you ...
We brought this air bed to accommodate overnight guests at our home. So far it has been used by a 10-year old and a fully grown adult both of whom rate it highly. The bed is very comfortable but also sturdy so it doesn’t dip if you sleep to close to the edges. The fact that it self-inflates and deflates is excellent. If you were to take this camping in a tent without an electricity hook-up then my guess is that you’d need a good foot pump as blowing it up yourself would take some considerable effort.
Overall an excellent, well constructed product.

Great design, comfortable night's sleep.... Highly recommended.
This is exactly what we were looking for. Although we have only used it once so far the bed inflated perfectly in a minute and a half and provided a comfortable night’s sleep for our guest. In the morning the bed deflated in the same time in a fuss free manner. When inflated it is as light as a feather and easy to move. The pump is well integrated into the design and easy to use.
The noise of the pump and is no louder than an old Hoover and is perfectly manageable as it is only a short time in duration. In short I think this bed is an excellent well made product. We have already recommended it to others and hopefully we will get many more comfortable nights out of it.

Excellent air bed
Excellent air bed, it is so comfortable. I am using it as a permanent bed. Only needs to be topped up with air about every 5 or 6 weeks.
The air temperature in the bed is the same as room temperature, in winter it will feel chilly to lay on, just put a topper on the bed, pull a
duvet over you and you will soon be in the land of nod. Any one with a pet that comes equipped with teeth and claws might want to
avoid getting any make of air bed, or keep the bedroom door closed.

This bed is excellent,very comfortable and robust.The huge amount of positive comments influenced my purchase.A small few critical comments stated that the bed deflated somewhat overnight.Mine did,very slightly;just a matter of inflating a little more.It must be noted that the instruction booklet clearly states that this may happen initially, until the bed settles.It is not an air leak.After use,it doesn’t fit back in its box.This is a non-issue,I just got a slightly bigger box.Personally,I find the “pillow” too low.An ordinary pillow sits comfortably on top of this.Would I purchase one of these beds again? I certainly would.
Good value for money.
Exactly what I needed for an occasional bed for guests. As others started, you do need an insulating layer under the bed sheet as the sir in the bed can get cold during the night. A thin duvet took care of that! Would be nice without the raised pillow part, as it’s too much when you use a pillow on top, but it is not enough on its own and it makes the bed feel shorter than it could be. Overall a good product for the price, would recommend!

Bought this Active Era single size air bed because we had a family member due to stay overnight for a few days.
Package received in super quick time and in good condition. After unboxing and unfolding we used the integral 240Vac electric pump to inflate.
Bed inflated quickly approx 1.5mins and all family had a lie on it to try firmness etc.
The next morning the guest family member informed us that she had a wonderful sleep and did so for the next few days.
YES you need to put a covering (blanket or duvet) over the bed first before putting on base bed sheet – this prevents bedding sliding around and also extra warm from below.
Good product and would recommend to others for unexpected overnight guests.
We used the integral electric pump to deflate the bed afterwards – and that worked fine and bed was easily folded back into small size for storage again…
Good quality and so fa
Good quality and so far, happy with it after a few days. The air pump is efficient and relatively quiet and definitely inflates within the time claimed. It’s comfortable enough to sleep on and can readily be deflated (impressively short time using the pump in reverse). Only two points to make: First, the mains lead is not very long and it would be a great benefit if it was possible to wind it back in after use (like some vacuum cleaners do). It could be a manual mechanism – nothing fancy. Secondly, it would be helpful if the instructions were a little clearer and more expansive, especially regarding the point at which to turn the pump off. It doesn’t give the user any confidence regarding leaving the pump on too long, except the comments regarding excessive use up to 20 minutes or beyond, which time length would only occur if the product was faulty. Overall, it’s a good product and deserving of at least 4 stars and would get a whole-hearted endorsement if the above were rectified. Finally, delivery time and packaging were very good.
Perfect for our needs
I am delighted with this purchase. I actually look forward to using it each night as its so comfortable. It is exactly as described in the advertising. So easy and quick to inflate and deflate. My husband is ill and I purchased this so that I could sleep downstairs nearby to his bed. I am five feet six inches tall and it is long enough for me. I am not sure whether it is available in longer lengths. Highly recommended and other members of the family are already interested in purchasing one for caravan holidays.

Good value airbed
We bought this last week for a guest coming to stay for 4 nights. It arrived promptly as described and we had no problem inflating it, the inbuilt pump works perfectly and inflated the bed in less than 5 minutes. The bed was slightly soft after the first night and just needed topping up, which took about 30 seconds and was a couple of days before our guest arrived, the instruction manual does say that this will happen for the first few days so it was exactly as described. We had no problems with it after that at all. Our guest said that she had a lovely nights sleep with no issues whatsoever.
Overall very pleased with this bed and it is now in the loft, waiting for our next visitor!

I bought this air bed almost a month ago and have been sleeping on it very soundly every night for the past fortnight, whilst a bedroom is being redecorated. I wanted to try it out before writing this review and can verify that it works really well! It’s so very easy to unpack and inflate (also deflate when needed). Although already comfortable and a good height from the floor, I added a little bit of extra comfort in making my own ‘mattress topper’ – a folded double duvet and fleece blanket placed underneath my sheet. I can highly recommend this air bed. It’s so convenient to have as a ‘spare bed’ and very well made.
Five Stars
Excellent item – Whilst we have only just purchased this item it was purchased from the experience of having purchased for use by others and so far no problems have been encountered and nothing but positive views of others, we have no reason to think our purchase will be any different. We feel we are in the position to recommend and have already done so on a couple of occasions to others.

I would recommend this
Perfect as inflatable beds go. The pump took 1.5 min to inflate mattress new from the box, very comfortable to sleep on. In the morning it was still pretty inflated (given the expected loss of air through air temperature, stretch in the new bed matched with a 100kg weight sleeping on it) 😉
To deflate was just as quick.
Packs away very small, given its inflated size.

Easy to use for a comfortable nigh
Very prompt service following placement of the order. The air bed inflated and de-flated exactly as per instructions and was so easy to use. It was bought for use by our grandchildren and has been very well received. Only used for one night so far but a definite thumbs up. Would definitely recommend as an extra and useful bed which takes up minimal space when deflated. Just one thing could improve it – a lightweight material storage case/bag as we could not return it to the original box.

The built in pump makes the air bed very easy and quick to inflate. The instructions say 3 minutes but it didn’t take that long to inflate and feel comfortable to lie on. I like that it’s just slightly wider than the one I used to use and has slightly ridged sides so that you cannot roll off. It also has a built in pillow area. Deflating it is also very easy, you just turn the knob the other way, it’s very clearly marked. It folded up really well so that I could store it in the box it came in. I think that for the price it’s definitely something that people should consider buying.
Give me time
I haven’t unwrapped it yet but I did have a sneaky look inside the box. It is an airbed and it looks great.
I’ll let you know as soon as the mother in law spends her Christmas on it. 🙂
Follow up:
Plucked up the courage to open it up and plug it in. Seems to work a treat and jolly comfortable.
The Mother in law still hasn’t arrived yet for Christmas, so watch this space.
first things first, ‘it does the job’, and it’s is comfortable and certainly better than the thinner inflatables. It does indeed inflate in about a minute and half and deflates in a couple of minutes, so easy up and easy down.
However if you are 5’10 or over your feet will extend over the end, it does deflate slightly overnight and it would be worth a few extra pounds on the price for a storage bag ( it being almost impossible to refold and put back in its box.
So, it’s not perfect but in terms of a relatively cheap, comfortable and easy to use item ‘it does the job’.

Excellent airbed at a competitive price
Ordered as an additional guest bed. The order was processed quickly and effectively. Although I have not had the opportunity to use the airbed yet (our guests are not due for another week), I have inflated it and tried it. It inflates very quickly and appears to be very comfortable. I also like the fact that the pump can be used to deflate the airbed and that it does not take very much space when deflated. A storage bag might be useful. Overall I am very pleased with this product.

A great product - very easy to use
A great product – very easy to use. I have only used it once however and it had deflated a bit over night so had lost some of the rigidity I had gone to sleep on. I had previously read other reviews before purchasing and heard similar but took a risk, however I did inflate/deflate it a couple of times before using it to see if it stretched or not, but hadn’t slept on it. Would be useful if the seller could comment back please? Like I said, it is a great product, but I would like to check this is normal – when I say deflated a bit, I had sunk into the middle quite a bit. Happy to discuss further! 🙂
High enough for a bedside table.
It does what the manufacturer promises. It inflates via the inbuilt electric pump within a few minutes. I like the height: so many inflatables are too low. If you have back problems it’s difficult getting up from floor level. This bed is high enough to allow the use of a table for a bedside lamp and so on. It’s comfortable. I liked the built in pillow. It is not adequate on its own of course but it provides a boost for a conventional pillow. I don’t know how much air pressure the bed will lose over the course of a week. I haven’t had it long enough. An earlier review remarked that once out of its box you’ll never get it back in again. Quite right: but then life is like that. It’ll fit easily enough into a lidded plastic container. They’re cheap enough. It is heavy. On the other hand I imagine that its heavier gauge plastic will withstand accidental rough treatment rather better than some of its competitors. The pack included one miserable little patch as a ‘just in case’ for repairs without suggestion or instruction as to how it should be best used. Let’s hope I never need it. Apart from this detail it’s a well constructed and thought out product. More expensive than many others but I think it’s going to be worth it .

Wonderful bed to sleep on, well so I have been told.
I have had different guests sleep on both that I purchased and everyone said that they slept well.
Just about everyone said they were comfortable to sleep on.
If there was anything I could add to the bed it would be length.
If you are quite tall you may find your legs hanging over the end, 6ft you would need to curl up a bit.
Quality is very good and strong, a little heavy but that’s quality.
Quick to inflate and deflate using electricity.
Pillow not too high.
Comes with extra patches to repair, just in case kitty puts her claws in.
I have been recommending this bed to everyone.
So far, so good
I bought this to replace a blow up bed (not this brand) that had annoyingly sprung a leak. This bed arrived nicely boxed and on time. It’s very quick and easy to inflate and there is space to store plug and cable in a panel. The bed is nicely high off the floor and comfortable. I had a friend sleep on it for 4 nights without any negatives. Once it is no longer needed it deflates just as easily. I am not storing it in the box but you could. It’s safely on the plastic and then in a shopper and packed away. Perfect for those who don’t have the space for a permanent bed for the occasional guest.

Needed something for my 83 year old mum to sleep on when staying with me. Read the reviews but still wasn’t sure about an air bed for someone in their 80s. Was pleasantly surprised. Quick to inflate and extremely comfortable. Fits normal single bedding. Even the cat approves
Well worth the money !
Purchased this bed as a guest bed for use in our house not for camping .
Wanted a comfy bed , which inflated quickly , stayed inflated and had a resemblence to a proper bed i.e. Significantly off the floor.
So far it has met all my expectations.
My 8 year old niece used it over a weekend and
loved it , so much so that she didn’t want to get out of it in the morning it was so comfy !
I provided an extra pillow but she didn’t use it as it has a “pillow ” built into the design .
Deflated easily and now stored away , I did struggle to get it back into the original package but stored it in a larger one so no problem to me .
I am 160 cm and it was long enough for me, I think if you were very tall you might need to tuck your feet in and that seems to be the only negative thing I can say about it .
Very pleased with my purchase ,I think well worth the money for a good nights sleep.
I’ve had this type of air bed before from other sellers but this one is far superior to those, the quality is really good and the built in pump is a god send! I’m no light weight and this bed was as good after night three of our camping trip as when I first inflated it. It was the envy of other campers who all wanted to try it out! Hopefully it should generate a bit of business for you!

Hi All. This is not a sponsored review!!! This is a fantastic product! I had a double air bed years ago in our house in France and this is fantastic in comparison. It’s sturdy and the raised edges stop the rolling off effect. I slept on it when guests came to stay and left it inflated to check deflation. I also did my back excercises on it. One thing I was really pleased about is that it is a generous single, so no problem changing positions and feeling you were going to fall off! Easy to inflate and easy to stack away giving me lots more storage space in my flat.

Firstly, a great bed. Easily assembled using built in air pump (mains power), about 3 minutes to inflate, also using pump to deflate removes virtually all air for easy folding and storage. Good height from floor, comfortable sleeping. I am about 15 stones and bed copes easily with weight. Perhaps a little airloss when new as fabric stretches.
I would recommend this bed, a very useful addition to any household.

My wife is so pleased with this bed. She’s actually choosing to sleep on it instead of our normal bed whilst the nights are so hot! Our normal pocket sprung bed retains so much heat in the night that she ends up sweating, whereas this bed keeps her cooler than anything else she’s tried, she says this: “I love it! It’s so lightweight that I can move it around the room easily. It’s wonderfully easy to inflate, it’s a really generous width so I don’t feel like I’m going to fall off either side, and the quality of the mattress as you sleep is actually fabulous. To top it all off it keeps me cooler than any normal mattress. Who’d have thought that a blow up bed could solve so many nighttime issues?”.
Thanks for a great product and we’ll be recommending this bed to everyone we know 🙂

This great value for money. It inflates & deflates really quickly – as long as you have an electrical point! It’s very comfortable and spacious. Ideal for a large adult or even 2 small children! Also easy to re-fold for put back in box.
Fantastic bed – inflates in a flash. My 8 year old grandson slept on it for 2 weeks and it didn’t go down at all – he said it was very comfortable.
It deflated very quickly with no effort when we wanted to put it away. Great spare bed – so pleased with it that have just bought the queen size one as well.
Super Comfy Air Bed
We bought the Air Bed for a visit who stayed for a week and was very pleased with it. Our guest slept like a baby. It is very practical as it comes with an electric pump that allows you to inflate the bed very easily and quickly when it is needed and deflate it during the day to save space. The material is very strong. It is ideal for visits if you live in a small flat as you will not need much space to store it and can easily have a bed ready for your visits in a matter of a few minutes.

88 year old mum bought loves this. ‘So comfortable’. Needs a small top up about every 3rd day but that’s quick and easy. Takes standard bed linen well..in fact looks like a normal bed when dressed. Packs up small. Love i
As flawless as it can be - 5 stars are not enough
As my parents were coming to visit me in my small flat, I had to find a solution to avoid sleeping on the way-too-small couch.
I read some of the reviews on Amazon and was convinced to go for the Body Source air bed, even if there were definitely cheaper options. After all, it’s not something you purchase every day. I was surprised at how small the box was and slightly suspicious. Even if the reviews were glowing I thought that an air bed would never be as comfortable as a proper bed – I definitely shouldn’t have worried.
It is as good as a proper bed, if not better. As soon as my parents arrived, I got ready for the night, plugged in the cord and turned on the pump. Mind you, it is rather noisy so if you want to avoid annoying your neighbours probably better to inflate the bed before 10 pm. Inflating the bed is quick and painless but to be honest I always turned the pump off before the auto-shutdown because I thought it was inflated enough. Fitting the sheet was a bit of a problem – the bed is too high to fit the sheet at the bottom so you have to fit it halfway. I thought it would move during the night but it definitely didn’t – another plus. The included pillow was a bit too shallow for my taste so I used a regular pillow but probably you can sleep well even without it – a matter of taste, I guess.
When you lay first on the bed you have to get used to a bit of noise as the bed adapts to your shape but then you’re good to go. I was afraid that the bed would deflate a bit during the night as I weigh over 200 lbs but it didn’t. I had a perfectly good night of undisturbed sleep – when my parents left and I went back to my regular bed I had to adapt to the mattress and I sort of miss my air bed.
As far as I’m concerned, this product is perfect and I would wholeheartedly advise everyone who needs a temporary bed to buy it. Only minor issue is that it’s not easy to find the proper way of folding it to make sure it fits in the original box but once you learn how to do it, you’re good to go.
Doesn’t happen often but I wish I had more than 5 stars to give – it’s THAT good.
I bought this bed for guests coming over for the weekend. I loved how fast it inflated – no fuss at all! It’s very soft and comfy. It was for someone who has back problems and they slept like a baby – even longer than they normally sleep at night. We did have to inflate a little every night, but that was no problem at all. Very happy with my purchase!
I really liked this product. It is so easy to inflate and deflate. Very comfortable. It is impossible to put the product back in the box but still can be folded small enough not taking up so much space. One small issue, the bed lose some air during night. It is not a big deal as my guests were still comfortable enough to slept over. That’s the reason I gave 4 stars.. Overall it is a really good product.
Bought this as had visitors and needed extra bed bought airbeds befor never much success ,This is brilliant inflated quickly and very comfy to sleep on,down and packed away very quickly ,used twice now very happy with product ,,was delivered quickly Excellant product..
