5 Tips to Get the Most out of Your Air Mattress An air mattress, or air bed, is a type of mattress inflated with air, which can be easily deflated and stored when not in use. An inflatable air mattress is often the go-to solution for overnight guests and camping trips. While air beds have improved exponentially over the years, it can be hard to match the support and comfort of a traditional bed. Check out these five easy tips to get the most comfort out of your air mattress. Helpful Air Bed Tips: A properly inflated air mattress can make the difference between a restful night's sleep and a night of tossing and turning. Even the most quality air beds can begin to sag after a few days of use. If you're using an air mattress for more than a night or two, keep it firm and supportive by pumping more air into it every few days. Make It a “Real” Bed One of the primary comforts of a standard bed is sinking into luxurious bedding. Go the extra mile and keep a spare set of quality sheets, comforter, and plush pillows on-hand to make sleeping on an air bed a relaxing experience.
If the bed linens have been stored for a period of time, refresh them with a spritz of linen spray or give them a gentle tumble in the dryer before use. Use a Mattress Topper Take your air mattress comfort up a notch by recreating the softness of a traditional bed with a mattress topper. Mattress toppers, like foam egg crates or quilted pads, will add extra cushion to your inflatable bed. Help your guests get their best night's sleep with an ultra-comfortable air mattress topper. It's an easily overlooked feature, but a headboard is essential to a comfortable air bed experience. Give your guests the support of a headboard by simply pushing the air mattress against a sofa or wall to create a comfortable place on which to lean. It will also help keep the pillows from falling over the edge of the bed during the night. Invest in a Mattress Stand or Cot Air mattresses tend to get chilly during the night when the air inside begins to cool down. A good way to keep an air bed at a comfortable temperature is to elevate it off the ground.
Consider investing in a stand, cot, or inexpensive box spring to elevate the mattress and give better support to your sleeping guests.
