In other words, I had to make four trips to Target (22 miles RT) to find one mattress that held air.

Then, that product only lasted three months before it could no longer air, and appeared to have no leaks in the material.

Another big problem is that these mattresses are short on both advertised length and width by two inches each way. Thus, fitted Queen sheets fit kind of sloppily.

Actually measurement inflated (even though temporary inflation which will not last for a night’s slleep) dimensions are 56.5″ width by 77.5″ length - hardly what is claimed on the box.

This is not an Eddie Bauer product. Only the name is paid for by Target to sell this junk. Careful on their vacuum cleaners as models are made to cheaper specifications that full brand names in order to sell for less but with less features and quaility.

Like Costco and other con artist mass merchandisers, check model numbers and you will see slight differences such as less features.
