Inflateable Air Mattress Guide
How To Choose The Best Air Bed.
Air beds and mattresses are a great addition to your holiday survival kit. If family or friends come to visit you can extend your hospitality by offering them a place in your home. Even a small apartment can turn into luxury digs for your visitors with a easy to set-up air mattress.
When it comes to purchasing the best air bed here is a check list of things to consider:
- How will you use the mattress? Is it for camping, an extra bed for guests or a permanent bed for your dorm? Knowing ahead of time will make choosing the right one easier.
- What comes with the mattress? Make accessories top on your shopping list. You must have an air pump to inflate the bed. Check to see if one comes in the box. If not you must add it to your air bed kit. Luckily the LoungAir comes with one – saving you the extra time and expense of purchasing it separately.
- What features are important to you? Do you want a built in pillow or would you prefer your mattress double as a comfortable chair for your guests?
- If possible test the bed – many companies will tout ‘extra chambers’ for comfort, but often it doesn’t make that much difference. The true test is how well it feels when it conforms to your body, how much cushion or how firm the pump inflates the mattress to.
- Buy the best quality, puncture resistant vinyl available. Camping, kids and pets can wreck havoc on a cheaply made air mattress.
- Make sure your air mattress is rated to hold your build. The LoungAir is rated up to 500 pounds.
We hope you have a safe and enjoyable holiday season. With a little planning you can welcome guests into your home – and save everyone a little cash, during these tough economic times.
