INTEX Twin Size Air Mattress, 18in Height, Built-in Pump, Dura-Beam Deluxe Comfort-Plush - Portable Inflatable Blow-up Bed for Camping, Travel, Guests

I bought the 13” High twin because of the price and the space limitations I faced in a very small condo. I was only going to use it for a week at my mom’s while I helped her rehab from an injury. Well, she had some major health issues occur so that week has turned into 10 months of nightly use and counting and my twin air mattress has held up perfectly with no complaints (my chihuahua doesn’t mind either). I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived and it was actually very comfortable. I have been very grateful it has held up and provided a place for me to recharge and get some restful sleep while being at my mom’s side. I have added air periodically to firm it up (easy task and to be expected). It’s lightweight and easy to pick up and move to vacuum. I have let visitors use it who have challenged the weight limit and no issues have arisen in the 12 nights the limit was exceeded. This bed had truly gone beyond any expectations I had for an air mattress. I highly recommend!

I have been sleeping on air mattresses for about 5 years now. Yes, every night. The reason is that I cannot afford a decent new mattress and before switching to an air mattress, I had used mattresses. Most developed "sink holes" and those who sleep on an older mattress know what I mean - a spring or something inside has shifted and that spot...well, it's a dip that you have to figure out how to avoid when sleeping. But the basic reason is because I am an older lady that lives alone and when I have moved, I have moved myself so as not to bother people. I have mostly flat pack furniture so I can break it down and move it myself. Having an air mattress fits right in with that ease of moving my own stuff. The IDOO I had was a great deal, though I had last had a King Coil 22" that I really liked EXCEPT for their "pillow" area (the part at the head is inclined and that bothered me since I am an "arm sleeper" - put one arm up under my pillow, under my head and hang it off the bed). Other than that part King Coil is a great air mattress bed. Now for this Intex - I have had a couple of different Intex items and find they make quality stuff - first was a smaller, rectangular pool that wasn't too hard to set up (but I did need a friend to help with putting it up) and I currently have their inflatable loveseat that unfolds to become a bed. It's a nice extra piece of furniture/bed, but wish it had the internal pump which it doesn't. Still, it is a serviceable spare seating and sleeping piece that can be put up quickly enough. NOW, for this bed - back to my 22" height and I am SO HAPPY with that part of it. When you are older, getting UP off something is harder than scooting down off that same thing! Meaning that I have no problem getting on a bed (no matter what the height), but in the morning, when I'm groggy and not 100%, trying to push myself up off the 18" wasn't horrible, but it wasn't fun at all. With this Intex 22" queen, my feet dangle just a bit off the floor and pushing myself off and DOWN is just so much easier. I was also relieved that the pump is at the top (or could be the bottom, depending on how you orient the bed) as my outlet is at that spot on the wall behind the bed. The IDOO had the pump on the side so the cord had to be put up under the bed...I didn't like that. This Intex, like all the air mattresses with an internal pump, it inflates (and deflates) very quickly. Around 5 minutes. What's easy is taking down an air mattress - most of them come with a carry case as this one did - and if you flip the sides in, then do a fourths fold up, it will fit in the bag and isn't too terribly heavy even for me to carry. The IDOO developed a leak and instead of trying to patch it, as I have slept on it for about 2 years, I deflated it, put it in the bag it came with and threw it away. This Intex, I had it out of the box an fully inflated in less than 10 minutes. Made the bed and laid down on it - aaahhhh! So, if you are in need of a spare bed for overnight guests on occasion OR you have had it with your lumpy old "regular" mattress and having sticker shock over the memory foam, purple, pillow top and other replacements, you might want to try an air mattress. Even if you only use it long enough to save enough money for one of those $500-$1000 mattress, this $75 mattress will allow you to sleep well, night after night after night.

Easy to use and comfortable. Built in air pump is quick and not too loud. Similar volume to a vacuum cleaner. You will need to top it off a few times when you start using it as it will stretch. It’s not losing air, just pump it back up to desired firmness. Fairly tall for an air mattress so you don’t feel like you are sleeping on the floor and for those of us that are a little older it makes getting out of bed in the morning easier. I’m using a thicker mattress cover and a 2” foam mattress pad from IKEA ($60 in a queen). Feels like a regular mattress unless I’m on the edge of the bed and it slumps a little. Would highly recommend this to anyone looking for an air mattress. I’m happy with how it’s performed and it will definitely take care of me until a new mattress is in the budget.

The Intex Dura-Beam Deluxe Comfort-Plush Elevated Air Mattress (Queen Size, 18in Bed Height, 600lb Weight Capacity) has been a fantastic addition for hosting guests at my home. This air mattress, featuring Intex’s Fiber-Tech construction, offers impressive stability and durability, supporting up to 600 pounds with ease. The dual-layer, velvety flocked top feels soft and luxurious, providing a smooth sleeping surface that rivals a traditional mattress. My guests have raved about the comfort, sleeping soundly through the night without complaints of sagging or discomfort.The built-in electric pump is a standout, inflating the bed to the perfect firmness in just 3-4 minutes, and deflation is just as quick for easy storage in the included duffel bag. At 60 x 80 x 18 inches, it fits standard queen sheets perfectly, and the indented sides keep them snugly in place. The 18-inch height makes getting in and out of bed effortless, especially for older guests. While some users report minor air leaks over time, I’ve used it for several weekends without issues, though I check the pressure before each use as recommended.Lightweight and portable, it’s ideal for home use or camping, and the waterproof top adds durability. For anyone needing a reliable, comfortable air mattress that’s easy to set up and store, this Intex model is a great value that delivers a restful sleep experience. Highly recommend

Fabulous air bed! I ordered this and just took it camping over the weekend. I forgot to inflate it before we camped so the "stretch" could happen before we needed it, but it worked wonderfully!! We blew it all the way up so it was fairly tight that night when I went to bed and by morning it was perfect! I didn't have to add any air to it over the next few days at all and I slept very well on it. I also have bad knees so I wanted a mattress that would be easy to get up off of and this was an amazing height. Easy on and easy off! It will be perfect to have in the house for extra visitors if needed as well. Am very happy with my purchase!
