Just like most of Coleman’s airbed, having this is practical for unexpected overnight guests or for use during travel or staying at camping grounds. It’s as comfortable as sleeping on a regular twin bed.

It has a physical special feature though in that the air mattress has a translucent bottom. That doesn’t seem to have any effect on sleep but is only for eye-candy.

* Twin-sized inflatable bed with translucent bottom, soft suede top
* Exclusive PVC formula that’s 15 percent more puncture resistant
* Double lock valve opens extra wide for quick and easy inflation
* Includes rechargeable 4D QuickPump
* Inflated size of 74 by 39 by 8.5 inches

This air mattress can fold up just like how an adjustable bed works.

It has the usual air chambers, like most air mattress have, but it also has flex coil construction allowing the air mattress to be raise its back and legs for your comfort.

It is comfortable for sleeping as well as for lounging, but it is a lot more cheaper than buying really expensive adjustable beds.

That eventually, mattress firmness disappears. A traditional bed leaves body depressions that, overtime, causes backaches. In some cases, the mattress needs to be flipped in order to help retain its shape and use.

What the Comfortaire Cirrus Air Mattress offer is adjustable firmness that doesn’t wear out.  In effect, you get to sleep on the same bed over and over and over, as if it’s still sparkling brand new.

It can support its own. Think of it as similar to an air bed except that it has water inside. An air chamber surrounds and protects its perimeters.

It is lighter than standard waterbed mattresses.  As such, it may also be an alternative to air beds during camping trips or for weekend guests.

As with air beds, water level may be adjusted for comfort and into four different types: free flow, semi-waveless, waveless, and ultra-waveless.

I haven’t really had the chance to sleep on one. Some air mattresses have surfaces that are slippery enough. I would imagine that if you use a silky cotton sheet, it may get slippery and you would have to get up the bed every now to fix this. A fleece cover seems to be the better choice. It’s also cozier and warmer matched up against an air mattress’ surface. And despite numerous washing, it remains soft and snuggly as ever.

I hardly am crazy about flip-flops but I do know a few people who collect many types and designs of flip-flops (or slippers). Not exactly sure how long a slipper made from the same materials as an air mattress would last, but I’m betting it won’t even take a week.

The materials to this may be as soft as a cloud, as one should expect from an air mattress. But stuff like this is perhaps good for collecting and keeping only, never for long term use.

It’s interesting to see such a product, though.

When sleeping as a guest in someone else’s house or having guests over your own place, it’s the children who are usually resigned to share beds or sleep in smaller beds like the sofa. Most adults assume this is comfortable for their little bodies but then again, this is still not an ideal sleeping arrangement.

How do you feel about lugging an extra toddler mattress during trips?

The Shrunks Tuckaire Toddler Air Mattress provides supportive comfort for little ones.

The Tuckaire airbed from The Shrunks features a patented i-beam construction for comfort and support. Constructed of PVC containing less than .05% phthalates, the Tuckaire exceeds strict standards for PVC from California and ensures safety for your child.

With the Tuckaire System, tuck sheets securely under the mattress and up away from the floor. Sheets stay in place and remain clean. Sturdy enough for everyday, the Tuckaire toddler bed works perfectly as your child’s bed. Coming complete with an air pump, The Shrunks Toddler Air Mattress sets up quickly and easily.

The set comes with a handy traveling bag which also includes the pump. It’s so convenient and practical.

With only 4 slabs of what looks like transparent glass and a metallic chassis, the whole idea to this bed brings a feeling of lightness, with energy floating freely. It should feel like being on a magic carpet ride. It’s supposed to also help stimulate sensuality. On the surface of the bed are images inspired from the Kama Sutra.

I can’t imagine it’s support is superior, though. Won’t this bed crack under pressure?

Ask any weekend visitors around and they would all chime that a sofa bed alone tend to be very uncomfortable.

Using an air mattress on a sofa bed is simple — you only have to put it on top of the mattress frame and inflate, which should only take less than three minutes. Cover these air mattresses on sofa beds with standard sheets. And then you’ll have a really homey environment, especially for your weekend visitors or overnight guests.

Your guests can in turn adjust the mattress to their comfort level, as most air mattresses today have knobs and features that allow that.

I’m no expert but going around web communities, I found out that old airbeds no longer useful for sleeping can be turned into:

- a plant bed which you can fill up with dirt and grow a mini garden

- a tarp or shade for the dog house

- a tent for pets

- a rug

- a bag, if you know how to sew

- send it over for recycling companies to make more use of

So, don’t throw these away or leave them lying around the pavement.

It does the job pretty well and it’s nearly not visible to the eye…unlike scotch tape or duct tape or something similar.

And like the previous item, this is also puncture resistant.

Each has a removable, machine-washable polyfleece cover over a puncture-resistant PVC shell that inflates and deflates easily (pump sold separately; see #239669). ComfortSmart™ Coil System contours to your dog’s body, for better mattress-like support. Airtight™ System with Double-Lock™ Valve helps prevent leaks. About 6″ thick inflated. Available in 3 sizes: Medium(34″x26″), Large(42″x32″), or Extra Large(54″x40″).

But I quickly learned that this is also good for indoor use especially if you have pets like cats in the house.

* Inflates in less than 3 mins.
* 40-coil mattress with wider gussets for comfort and stability

It’s valued at $1.5Million because it is such an advanced mattress. But I wonder if anyone has actually bought one and have been satisfied with it?

In the middle of it is a “tummy zone” giving mothers the option to lie on their stomach when sleeping. Sleeping on the side is also a relief if you position your belly on to the center. Just think of how much pressure is removed from your lower back and hip joints with this type of bed. The center is also adjustable, based on how soft or firm you want it.

With two chambers carrying two separate adjustments, this air bed allows for one to experience individual comfort in a bed that’s built for two people.

The sleeping surface of this unique air bed mattress is adjustable for each sleepers body weight. The additional chamber around the mattress provides edge support so you don’t roll off the mattress or run into a frame when it is used inside a waterbed frame.

The air bed is perfect for wooden bed frames, or as a stand alone for use during outdoor camping trips as storage, transport and installation is very convenient.

Air Bedding in a Bag

It leaves some buyers looking for guide elsewhere, much like the experience of this particular buyer who figured it out on her own and suggested to do this:

What I did: took off the cap and valve from the pump and pumped using my bare foot making sure I was covering the hole with my foot while pressing the pump and letting air in while lifting my foot. Because the sponge pump sends the air in other parts of the mattress, it’s hard to see that the mattress is in fact being inflated. There are two other valves on the mattress but they seem not to be used while inflating the airbed using the pump.

A word of caution, too…this mattress does deflate after a few hours. So, really it’s just a temporary bed and should never be considered as permanent house furniture.
