There's not much you can do to make an inflatable mattress more comfortable. They're not meant for permanent use.

The mattress might have stored better if, as it was deflating, the outer edges were tucked in, like they were at the beginning. Of course, none of that excuses the lack of comfort. Thank you for your fearless and reliable reviews.

I bought an EZ-Bed almost 15 years ago, we had the same issue with comfort, my in-laws who were sleeping on it bought a topper as well. I had no issues putting it back at the end though, it was always easy. I ended up building a murphy bed from a kit and lumber/plywood and put a good mattress, sure it's more expensive, but as it was never leaving the home the easy carrying wasn't that much of a benefit for us.

I have a very similar bed I use for camping, it does not self inflate but it has a mattress and a stand like this one you demonstrated. After a few uses it made an incredible squeaking noise any time we moved on it, it sounded like an orchestra of farts.

This is why I like your reviews. You're honest and you really use the thing to try it out from opening to closing. Can you try a robot vacuum? I've always wondered how well they work and how often they need to be cleaned out and stuff.

I love the wheels and case idea. I think most big tents and air mattresses should have one. It's definitely a bed to build on. Maybe in a few years there will be a better one, but it will cost double by then 😥

Thank you, James, for reviewing this one. I've been wanting one for years since I saw it on some sort of ad. Now I know that a regular air mattress is still the better choice over the "convenience" of this one.

Yeah, just a regular self-inflating mattress + separate folding bed frame is so much better combo. Although from my previous experience I would recommend one of those tall (around 40cm) self-inflating mattresses, since they don't need to be put on any bedframe. I've had one of those metal folding bed frames and after like 2 uses it started to creak every time you did even a slightest of movements so I quickly got rid of it

Being as I'm sort of "The Princess and the Pea" when it comes to comfort... I'm glad I watched your review... I would HATE that thing... and sleep would never happen for me on something like that...

Thank you so much for keeping it real. I can't stand these Tik Tok "reviewers" that are just in it for a cash grab. I always come and search your channel to see what products are really like.

I LOVE that bed spread! That’s GORGEOUS!

Fun watching it fold up, at least as far as it went. Those things never fit back in the box. And now you have to store the mattress top somewhere….

Hey cool, I had one of these same beds! It worked great until the area around the inflation part broke out of nowhere so it only stayed inflated for 30 minutes then you were in a hammock 🤣

For me the noise alone is a deal breaker. Like imagine being tired at night and having to listen to that before you go to bed

We have had one of these for years now and find it great. Good size and you can adjust the comfort level very easily. So simple to operate the hardest part is getting it out of the attic. One of the bestbuys we have made.

This is the bed you break out when you don't want company to stay for too long! 😆

Every so often, we get a glimpse of just how tall you really are. It should not take someone of your impressive size to repack a bed which is supposed to be pretty much self-storing. This is one of those really great ideas which, properly executed, could have been great. Instead, they froze their mattress technology back in the 1970s. If they updated to the current air mattress configurations and fixed the minor frame/storage issues, I think this could be a winner. Really appreciate your honest reviews. I had considered getting one, now? Nope.

For $350 you can get a decent sized memory foam mattress... sure it won't be as portable going forward but, surely much more comfortable. I guess this thing would only be good for if you are staying at someone's home for awhile who doesn't have a 2nd bed for you. I guess. Thanks for the review.

"Easy to put away" + the mattress pad, that also needs place for storage... I love your honest reviews. 🥰 You've saved me a lot of money, over the years. Thank you🌹

I've had one of these for more than 10 years. Mine came from Frontgate, and I suspect ones on Amazon aren't as good quality. I love mine. Still comfy, still fully functional, zipper on case still works. 10 out of 10. One thing people who aren't used to it do that makes it not as comfy is they don't inflate it enough. I have never had any issue with stability. It's not uneven in the least. I use a nice mattress pad (the kind you can launder, not a topper.) This is the bed I set up for my elderly mom who has had 2 hips and a knee replaced and has difficulty getting in and out of bed. I also have several air mattresses and a collapsible frame, and those are 10x more difficult to set up and take down, they aren't as compact, and they eventually poke a hole in every air mattress.

You should have just done the mattress topper on the floor and seeing if that was better than the air up mattress.

Thanks for the demonstration and honest review. I was hoping this might work for a van build to save space.

My Aerobed mattress has the same divets and bumps and they are not comfortable. It probably has something to do with how air matresses take the weight. I used the aerobed with a mattress topper, when I visited my Dad. What I hated most was getting up off the floor even though it was one of the taller mattresses. Having a bed frame would definitely make it easier to get in and out of bed. I think a mattress topper is always necessary with these type of air mattresses.

Thank You for sharing this honest review. I saw it go viral as well and wanted to try it but I didn't see too many honest reviews about it.

anyone who takes a 30 second review seriously, does not care about their money let alone the value of the product they are buying, I recommend your channel a lot for a good review because you throughly test it to the best of your abilities and go back a year, even more, later to tell us how it held up and f you like it still, which is the mark of a great reviewer.

I love ur unbiased reviews! You tell it how it is

I use this at my parents apartment. We’ve been thru so many air mattresses and they’ve all broke after a few days. This thing is just a god send, it gives much better support than a regular one, and it’s pretty darn comfy too. The legs aren’t the best but it gives a great experience for what it is

Could you do a comparison and review for different sleep masks? There’s several on Amazon that are different styles and offer different benefits. Would be cool to see which ones work better in terms of comfort, light blocking, sleeping in bed (side sleep/regular sleep) vs sleeping while sitting i.e. on a plane, etc. Been a subscriber viewer for a long time and your videos are always interesting and entertaining even if I’m not looking to buy the item you’re reviewing. Keep up the awesome work!

You'll never run out of products to test if u make "True or False Tik Tok Reviews" a series on ur channel (just pick a better name than that, lol) I've seen several Amazon Must Have vids include this bed & of course no one actually slept in it or gave their feedback. This is why I subscribe to u James...thanks for all u do!!!!

In my experience, most air mattresses will deflate somewhat overnight the first couple times they're used, due to the plastic stretching out from its factory shape. To me the big problem with this type of bed is that it would be harder to detect and patch a real leak if one were to develop because you can't flip the mattress around easily. It's a shame too because it would be a great solution for guests who have difficulty getting up off an air mattress on the floor.

Never had good luck with them after months of daily use. Always leak.

A mattress topper or a sponge top layer is always great for comfort. Good mattress have such a layer built in, so to buy that for the air mattress I thought not unreasonable. Good review, as usual.👏

We bought this 5-10 years ago, I don't know if the mfg is the same, but our guests liked it after we used after a topper. Our version doesn't have the leg issues and it packs away easily

I wondered how comfortable le this would be. Thanks for the review

I love this mattress....I have the queen size, and I don't have the difficulty as you show of folding it up after deflating. I do agree that this mattress might be hard for some people to sleep on because of the valleys but I beleive its designed this way for deflation purpose. Overall I am able to have good night sleep. The topper does eliminate the feeling of the valleys. I love that it has it own frame as I prefer not to be on the ground. Its is a little pricy but it easy and fast to set up and to put away ( at least for me).

Hmm... I'm not sure if this will help, but when the bed is deflating, try to gently push the frame to compact it. Maybe it'll help to get more air out of the mattress so you can store it easier in the bag.

Another thing not shown is that the unit with the mattress pad will not be nearly so compact. The mattress pad may actually be larger than the mattress when stored. The mattress is doing very little anyway once you add a 3" pad. Buy a thicker foam pad and sleep on the floor.

Always entertaining and informative...thank you!

No idea why I'm watching this as I sleep on a sofa lmao

We have a queen self inflating air mattress and a separate foldable bedframe that cost less than half that much. I do put a foam topper on it for the comfort of my guests. We slept on it for several nights when we moved from Ohio to Tennessee and it was quite comfy with the 3" foam topper. We still prefer our full-wave hard side waterbed though. 🙂

I just use two inflatable mattresses one on top of the other (with a rug pad in between them to keep the top one from sliding). If one springs a leak, it's cheap to replace. I don't have the ones with a built-in pump. I use a cheap comforter under the fitted sheet for comfort and to keep from feeling the plastic.

Thank you for all your work you do in giving us reviews before investing in a product. Happy New Year!

I'm betting a narrower bed like a "regular" or "twin" would have less bowing effect. The problem is that the mattress is supported cross-wise by flexible, cloth straps. If you could adjust them a little bit tighter it might alleviate some of the bow. That might help to pull the legs in place, also. However, no matter how tight you can get them, physics is physics and the straps will sag with weight. The greater the distance they span, queen or king size, the more they will sag.

Thank you for reviewing this item. I'm a huge camping fan. But as my age progresses, sleeping on the ground has been deterring me from going camping the last couple of years. When I saw this a few months back I was going to get it but wanted to wait to see how the reviews were. The putting away seems too much for me to warrant to purchase it. Now I am on the hunt for an alternative.

I have one of these Queen size and I love it. I got one for when I have guests. Easy to use.

I've gone through a lot of air mattresses before, and they always spring a leak at some point. This one doesn't look very robust either...

We had a similar air bed years ago. It did not expand on its own like this one. You had to open up the frame (very much like one of those folding lawn chairs). On top of the frame there was a zippered compartment that you would slide the mattress into once inflated. It was a relatively comfortable bed, but the setup and takedown was a bit tedious, and it was very difficult to get everything back into the bag.

Appreciate your dedication!

Oh, thank you, thank you. I almost bought one of these. Nice to know I'd have wasted my money. I watch your videos a lot, and I'm sure I've saved a bunch of money.

I carry a camping pad with me for the air mattress. I have yet to experience a comfortable air mattress (except my sleep number bed, which is the bomb!) If I had an air mattress for guests, I definitely would put a topper on it.

I stayed at my wife's aunts and uncles home and they had this thing. It must have had a mattress pad on it because I slept well, but I also sleep well on a sofa, cot, etc., so maybe its just me...When one sleeps like a log, little bothers the sleeper! HA HA

We had one of those years ago from Sharper Image. What you do is put a 2 or 3 inch foam mattress topper on top. We were always told they couldn't tell it was an air mattress. The whole point of the inflatable was to turn a room that was used for something else into a temporary bedroom so, yes, the mattress topper as to the cost, but all in all, it's way better than a futon, I feel. And way better than an inflatable on the floor.

I wonder if something like this could be reconfigured to use a foam mattress. Those things are mostly air anyways (as anybody who has ever unpacked one from a tiny box to see it "inflate" afterwords can tell you). It would probably be a bit more expensive since the legs would be some sort of compressing robotic mechanism or something like that, but it could be pretty comfy in theory.

that was a funny close up at the end lmao

we've actually had this mattress for about 3 years now. Its a phenomenal air mattress, and people love being off the ground when they use it. we take it on trips when air bnbs don't have enough beds, all around a 10/10 for me if its the one off wayfair and not a knockoff

I have a queensize aerobed air mattress that we've used for company a lot and it works well. Hardest thing about it is deflating it enough to fit in storage bag -- which I didn't bother to do except when we moved. it's quite comfortable.

It is a great product, I have purchased two over the last 10 years. Place a base on the mattress, that is a blanket and a mattress topper then a sheet. Adjust the firmness and it sleeps very well.

Thanks for the video. I was curious about this bed. By the way, where did you get that cool illuminated rotating globe on the table?

Great review James. I think this is a great concept, just not quite there yet

Id still go with an air bed that folds the size of a handbag. It seems like the size of that thing is going to cost me extra on my airfare tickets.

A decent air matress on the floor will probably way more comfy aside from way cheaper as well. This feels like something you pull out once a year to flex on your guests on how hi tech your extra bed is.

definitely not a knock on you James, 100% the product, but if you have to go out and buy a $70 mattress topper to make sleeping on it tolerable... I'd just buy the topper to use on the floor, and forget the $360 TikTok bed! lmao love the unbiased video with your always honest opinion!

Nice always been curious about that mattress. There's an suv specific air mattress that could be fun to review.

At the end of the review, when you said all that was left was to put it away, I fully expected to see a shot of you throwing it in a dumpster.

We bought three of these for family events (big family). It was branded as a Martha Stewart product back 10 years ago. works well but long term use is limited to the air mattress. Two have broken now and we only have one. We used them about 3-4 times per year. It is a nice idea but the materials will not hold up.

Interesting that you still have the purple mattress. We went down a rabbit hole of purchasing and returning 5 we didn't like last year... The expensive purple being one of them, it was like a rock. Ended up with a tempur-pedic.

I bought a queen size air bed and while it's wonderfully comfortable it's a job to get it back to a manageable size. I was moving into a new apartment so was able to use the shelves to my bookshelves to flatten it each time but it took three days to do it nicely. Something that deflated and had it's own storage is appealing.. right now mine is sitting over under my desk while I figure out where and how to store it.

It would be cheaper and just as space saving to buy a foldable bed frame, cheap air mattress, electric air pump, and a mattress topper. Like under $50 dollars cheaper. I see absolutely no reason to spend an extra $250-$300 more for a quirky unfoldable air mattress. Thanks for your reviews, as always!

Oh F no, just watch it in reverse. That thing is AI that wants to eat me. LOL

The entire neighborhood will know when you have "fun" on this bed.

Thanks for this review...I planned to buy one but not now 😂😂😂

looks like a torture device in the thumbnail

You know when a spider dies and dries out so the legs curl up around it? It looks like that before it inflates.

One of them liked the fact that it curved in bringing the closer together... i wonder which on it was lol

Perfect mattress for when the inlaws come over.

It's still a giant balloon that will eventually spring a leak.

It's really cool how it sets itself up. However, at least part if the frame lifting on the sides appears to be how that "casing" sits under parts of the frame. As far as comfort, inflatable mattresses tend to not be all the comfortable anyway. It seems like it could be ab acceptable solution for people who need an extra bed for company (maybe let the company have your bed and you take the inflatable). But, as you said it's rather expensive. I notice it doesn't deflate as well as it inflates.

This bed reminded me of the old timey cots you stored in a side table. Probably less comfortable than the cot, though.

Thanks James!

We put an egg crate pad on ours and it was every bit as comfortable as our $2K seely mattress.

You can save it for company that has a history of staying too long.
