Sleepover without Worries: Choosing an Air Mattress for Comfortable Sleep

An unexpected visit, a sleepover at a friend’s, or the perfect travel solution — an inflatable bed is the ultimate choice! It inflates quickly, ensures a comfortable sleep, and is easy to store after use. But how do you choose the right air mattress? And what’s it really like to sleep on one? Keep reading to discover everything you need to know.

 Advantages of inflatable beds

  • Easy to store – When deflated, they take up minimum space.
  • Easy handling – Lightweight and portable, ideal for travel as well as home.
  • Comfort – Modern models provide good back support and a comfortable surface.
  • Quick to prepare – With built-in or external pump, they are ready within minutes.
  • Versatility – Suitable for guests, when camping, and as a temporary sleeping solution.

Choosing an inflatable bed

When choosing one, consider:

  • Mattress height: More premium models are more comfortable and insulate better from floors.
  • Pump: Some mattresses feature a built-in pump for quick inflation; other can be inflated with a manual or electric pump.
  • Size: Single or double bed? Select the one you need.
  • Material and structure: Modern air mattresses are made of durable PVC with a suede surface that prevents the sheet from slipping. The internal structure is also important – technologies such as Fiber-Tech™ reinforce the mattress with thousands of strong fibres, ensuring better stability and longer life.

What’s it like sleeping on an inflatable mattress?

Modern air beds provide sufficient support for the spine and with a high-quality surface they are almost as comfortable to sleep on as a conventional bed. Proper inflation is the key to comfort – a mattress that is too hard or soft will affect your sleep. Find the ideal pressure and wake up refreshed in the morning.
