PVC-Free Air Bed by Lightspeed Outdoors Rest easy knowing you'll enjoy an exceptional night's sleep on the Lightspeed Outdoors Deluxe PVC-Free Air Bed with a patented stabilizing system. Using independent connectors between the top and bottom layers, this air mattress evenly distributes weight to minimize bouncing and movement disturbances between partners. Air bed firmness can be adjusted easily from soft to firm depending on preference, using the included battery-operated pump and built-in Boston valve. High-grade polyester oxford is laminated with TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) to make an air bed that is PVC and phthalate-free.
These superior materials combine to minimize the stretch and ballooning that is typical of a PVC air mattress. TPU is known for exceptional durability, with superior abrasion and puncture resistance, to help insure leak-free reliability throughout years of use. Under six pounds, this portable mattress is less than half the weight of most air beds. It packs small, making it convenient for travel and storage. The air mattress comfortably fits two adults and queen-sized sheets. It comes with built-in handles for easy positioning and an oversized storage bag for frustration-free packing.How is it different than PVC? TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) is a PVC-free and phthalate-free material applicant that is abrasion-resistant. TPU is 40% lighter than traditional PVC air mattresses, more durable, and less prone to stretching or ballooning. Why do stabilizers make for a better night's sleep? The patented stabilizing system distributes weight evenly to keep the surface of the air bed flat throughout the night.
The stabilizers connect the top and the bottom of the mattress to minimize bouncing and movement disturbances. Why a Boston valve? The Boston double-valve design makes air bed inflation/deflation easy and allows for adjustable comfort. One cap is used for inflation and deflation. The other cap lets air in but not out, allowing the bed to conform to desirable firmness levels. Important: Both valves need to be closed tightly to prevent air leaking from the two-part valve.

Keep in mind these other factors when selecting your new air mattresses:
Air retention is crucial for a good night’s rest. Quality material and welded or reinforced seams help stave off punctures and leaks. Be careful not to over-inflate your air mattress. Doing so could break seams and cause your air mattress to leak. Always ensure your new mattress has easy-to-use valves for quick inflation and deflation. Many models come with a built-in pump or a hand pump for ease of use. Many built in pumps are easy to plug in and make inflating your air mattress much easier. Size and height can vary greatly among air mattresses. Consult product information specifics on dimensions, as the size of air mattresses can differ from that of traditional air mattresses. Some air mattresses come lined in ultra-soft materials, like velour, for additional comfort. For convenience, choose an air mattress that comes with a carrying bag. Sleeping pads are ultra-lightweight and easy to pack—perfect for backpackers and those looking for a lighter load.
Looking for maximum comfort? Many premium air mattresses come with adjustability settings so that you can achieve a precise level of softness or firmness. Others come with integrated “headboards” that help keep pillows in place. Keep in mind that your air mattress may initially seem like it is softening or losing air. This is likely because the fabric is stretching and settling. After several uses, this should discontinue.Welcome to the March update of the guide on the best air mattress and their reviews. March finds us on a kind of a high, because we finally have a change in the 3 TOP-rated airbeds. A new exciting (well, exciting for us) arrival to the market is now ranked 3rd behind the undisputed SoundAsleep. The Dream Series by SoundAsleep has been lounging comfortably at the top with a significant gap in ratings over the runner-up for more than a year now. You’ll understand the reasons of our (it might seem) frivolous excitement, as you scan and hopefully read the reviews of the air mattresses.
Alas, we don’t see that happening anytime soon, at least not for the title of the best-air mattress and the # 1 spot where the SoundAsleep Dream Series has, as we said, dominating for almost 2 years now. However, after 6 months of calm seas, any change is good. See the rankings just below the introductory video ( which explains who I am and what we do at BestAirMattressGuide). Make sure you take a minute to watch the video demo below, it’s crucial for understanding the advantages of the currently top-rated airbed. It will also help you understand everything discussed in the reviews. Let’s summarize and see the top choices side by side, along with their basic specs and overall ratings. Below, we’ll just go into some airbeds that were close but didn’t quite make it to the TOP 3 In other words, a few honorary mentions that we didn’t have the heart to leave out. The Serta Raised with the never flat pump is one of the air mattresses that never left the TOP 10.
Literally never when it comes to our website – since we started it back in 2012 it was below the place #10. It’s low point was at the very beginning when it was dancing from place 7-10 for about a year. But, to be honest, back then we were still trying to tweak our testing and rating methods to truly reflect the quality of the air mattress. As things settled, this Serta quietly found its way into the TOP 5 and, then, the TOP 3 where it stayed for over 6 months. Up to this month’s update, that is. Version of the Serta Never Flat with a flocked top * and a TOP CHOICE among EZ airbeds with a frame The Insta EZ is a high-end product with a price tag to match but if you want an airbed that will be the talk of the breakfast table What people who own it say: * and a top budget solution If you need an airbed that will be used often, this budget-friendly blow up bed might be the choice for you. Intex is one of the industry’s most established brands.
However, airbeds for home use are not their primary field, it’s stuff like lilos, above-ground pools, inflatable sofa and lunges and inflatable chairs. Among their air mattresses, this one is by far the best choice. Opposed to their outdated models that might be cheap but rightfully so, the Comfort Plus is different. Primary because of the new Fiber-tech technology. It was always our mission to be as precise as possible and that led to diversification of our guides. I am a brand man and if that makes me shallow so be it, it’s the simple truth that some brands simply make the best air mattress. I buy same brand jackets whole my life, same brand jeans, I simply like the “energy” surrounding certain brands. And I believe that I have now found my brand of air mattresses. I’ll tell you here and now, when it comes to inflatable beds, I like Aerobed. Nowadays, Most of the bigger brands like Intex, Coleman, Serta have similar models and it’s a rat race. And the rat race is good, it results in better products and more attention to what we, the customers, need.
And lately, some newbies, like Sound Asleep with their Dream Series have been shaking and baking in the market. These are your top picks when it comes to air bed brands. In the comparison tables we look at some other options because you can never have too much information, but in my honest opinion these brands are top notch, tested over time and passing the tests with flying colors. each of these brands has some fluke models, but we won’t be talking about those here. We’re interested in the best products. Now we are coming to the “meat” of this page – the top 5 airbed reviews (in no particular order) . Just five inflatable beds that I humbly concluded are the best all things considered. Please read it, I lost my eyesight in front of that screen to compile this info. Here, we wanted to mention the airbed that were at some point among the top 5 or 10 but have since seen a significant decline in ratings. We are trying to keep tabs on all the air mattresses we review here to better understand why quality declines happen so that we can better understand the industry trends and know what blow up beds need re-testing.
We do update our guides every two months but we don’t test the beds every two months, the updates are a result of updated reviews from our featured testers. Only when we see a significant decline is when we re-test the airbeds from scratch. These three have seen such a decline at some point over the last two years but we still can’t out our finger on the reason. All the indicators with these beds (primarily leak development after 1, 3 and 6 months) have gone up, and not by little, hence the drop in ratings. Ratings – 78 / 100 If you are here you are either looking for a guest bed for your house of camping gear like inflatable pads. If you are looking for the later, I’ve got you covered – here is my ultimate guide to sleeping pads. It’s where you’ll find comparison charts, recommended products and reviews of the best rated sleeping pads. But here, we’ll mostly deal with air mattresses, most of them to be used for around the house or for less extreme camping conditions.
And it is a big decision, granted. Especially for those who have people over a lot. If you are not going to pamper yourself in these kind of things that determine the quality of your life, where else? I am a perfectionist and at times very indecisive. My most recent search started with me having the feeling that I’ll go over to Amazon and order an air bed within 10-15 minutes. But this seemingly simple decision turned into hours and days of research, especially when I saw all the options, new brands, types and pros and cons of each of them. And let’s not forget here that I am an aged camper and I can safely brag that I do know a lot about air mattresses. Well, this is not gonna happen to you. Because you found this website. When things got complicated I started making notes and that turned into a notebook with tables and comparisons… OK, you must be thinking, “What a nut…” And you’re probably right. But be nice now, this nut is going to help you find the best air mattress for your money.
