Can anyone recommend a reliable inflatable bed for occasional guests

[Redscarfdoggie]

Can anyone recommend a decent inflatable bed (or other type)? It’ll probably only be used twice a year, but our latest one keeps going down overnight. I’m so fed up with buying them only to discover they’re useless!

We’ll eventually buy a proper bed for the spare room, but we don’t want to do that until it’s been decorated.

I’d really appreciate any tried-and-tested recommendations. Thank you!

None of them last in my opinion. I’ve bought cheap ones, expensive ones. They all go down after a bit

We have a fantastic air bed for camping by Outwell. It's quite bulky rolled up though. It has a foam layer on top so it's not sticky. We sleep really well on it. Needs a bit more air every 4-5 days. Though I can't see it on their website...

Aerobed. Mine has lasted 15+ years and is more comfortable than my mattress. It gets used for about 7 nights two or three times a year.

Does it need to be inflatable? We find futon company cube beds very comfortable

Airefina with the built in inflatable pump. So comfortable and stays inflated

Thanks everyone. We ordered an Airefina to get us through this weekend!

@Redscarfdoggie How did the bed go? I need to get something similar. Can't find a trundle bed I like (we need one where the pull out bed is a single we can move, as opposed to making it a double like the Ikea Hemnes one). Considering a good airbed instead.

Hi @GirlFromMars1, the bed was great but we’ve noticed that it might be slowly deflating overnight now. Although that could of course be due to both DS and dog who seem to enjoy inflating it and jumping on it 🙄

Japanese floor mattress on Amazon. They are amazing and if I didn't have a bed I already love I'd probably use one of these as my bed.

You just roll it up when finished. We have one as our 'spare bed' for guests.
