Camping

SIM?

So what am I doing wrong?
Have had two vango SIMS now, both hopeless and losing air out of the valve during the night to point after a few hours we might as well be on the floor. Before these we had the standard blow up flock air mattress thing. All I want is a decent mattress for camping and weekends at family where we to sleep on the floor?
Camping shop can't help just say that's how they are and some will go (after 3 uses at £80 odd quid?)

So what do I get now that will work (think I have lost confidence in SIMs and those valves!

Are you heavier than average OP? If not I think you should complain directly to the company that makes them!

Nope, both normal range. Am going to complain, but there must be something else out there??

That shouldn't happen!
I have both cheap Aldi SIMS and a Coleman one, and another of unknown make. None have had leaky valves, and have been used many times.

Agree Aldi/Lidl ones good as long as cat doesn't chew them. Last year they were in shops around summer half term time.
