inflatable sofa's - gimmick or good?

Shall I or shan't I bother?
DD's are 9 and 7 - thought it would suit them.

Never had one, after the fiascos we had with inflatable mattresses never had the urge really.

We did get this folding sofa a few weeks ago and it's the best buy of the year, really sturdy and so comfy, can fit 3 kids on it and perfect for snuggling up round the campfire

We've got one and it's been great and much admired on the campsite! Folds up small, so takes up a lot less space in the car than camping chairs.

Sobek - this. Which one? I've spotted two styles: 1 which looks like a sofa, and one which looks like 2 donuts stuck together.

We had the two donuts one and I didn't find it all that comfortable. It also punctured on its first trip although I guess that is a risk with any of them. We have this one now ( got it a bit cheaper than this from Sports Direct recently): www.outdooraction.co.uk/camping-furniture-chairs-sofas/gelert/gelert-inflatable-sofa-pd-7182.php?gclid=CjwKEAjw5J6sBRDp3ty_17KZyWsSJABgp-OaSY3q_7zS0XVh9SDTCqtEFU_Pjnp_cmJqGiwYLYofhBoCGgPw_wcB.
It went down a storm with the kids on a recent campimg trip and seemed pretty comfortable on the rare occasion I got to sit on it!
