Things To Look For When Choosing An Air Mattress

When you're getting ready to make a new purchase it can be frustrating figuring out how to decide what's a good option

. Below is a short list of things to look for when choosing an air mattress that will help you make sure you'll have what you need.

Something that's very important that easily gets overlooked is to make sure they come with a pump, or that you've purchased one separately. A lot of inflatable beds don't come with these and there's nothing worse than getting home and realizing your options are to head back to the store or blow it up manually. This isn't to say that it has to come with the bed--you might be able to find a cheap deal that doesn't come with one and buy a pump at a good price separately, just make sure to take this into consideration.

Do they come with a bag or something easy to store them with, and do they mention how large they are folded up? If you're going to be using your air mattress for camping, or for guests, it will spending most of it's time in storage, so how easy it is to store it really does matter. You should be able to get the air out and fold the bed up neatly into a bag.

Look at reviews and consider the common complaints. Most websites have star rating systems and an area for reviews. Unless the air mattress is a very new model there should be a few reviews with some complaints--take these the most seriously when they're all complaining about the same issue.

Whenever you make any purchase you'll of course want to consider the price. You can find an air mattress is virtually any price range--you can find them as cheap as twenty dollars, or up to a few thousand (these are usually ones that are used as primary beds). You'll of course want to decide how much you'll looking to spend to narrow down your results.

Is it vinyl on top or does it have a nice soft cover? On a hot night, even with a sheet on top, a vinyl/plastic mattress can be very uncomfortable. With a nice, soft, material on top you won't even realize your sleeping on an inflatable bed, and if you put a sheet on top it's much more likely to stay neatly where you put it.

When you go out to make a purchase keeping these things in mind will help save you time and stress by narrowing down the list of things to look for when choosing an air mattress.
