A mini army of testers help us find the best air beds and tell us which ones are most comfortable to lie down on. Durability: Each of the beds is jumped on 10 times and poked by a sharp point with 50 newtons of force to assess its long-term durability, and how well it stands up to general wear and tear or a bit of rough treatment. However, they're a bit heavier than foam sleeping mats and don't pack down as small as inflatable mats. Getting up from a blow up is an issue I know if anyone has mobility problems but it's more for me to be comfortable during the night that counts.

We also asses how easy it is to achieve the desired firmness setting and how easy it is to fit a standard fitted sheet to the bed. Some say that the airbed is excellent to sleep on and a bit more luxurious than a normal blow up bed. They're lightweight and generally cheaper than their inflatable and self-inflating cousins and are great when used as an extra layer beneath a more substantial sleeping mat.Our popular range of double electric blankets is an ideal choice if you share a bed and can’t seem to agree on the temperature. Ease of use: We test how long it takes to inflate each bed, and how long to deflate and tidy the bed away. And if the nip in the air makes your body hurt, a hot water bottle will help relax your muscles and keep you warm and comforted.

Not only is this set up comfortable but it is warmer too and much easier to get out of in the morning without scrambling around on hands and knees. The king size blow up bed is easy to set up, the pump is built in so makes it easier and saves time on faffing around!The low-profile Flat High-Flow (FHF) valve offers fast, reliable inflation for sleep comfort and rapid deflation for packing away. Deflation: Each bed is inflated to its firmest setting, weighted down with heavy benches and left for 18 hours overnight. A air filled mattress will give you less room in your tent the self inflating mat is safe to walk on and so gives you more room to "manoeuvre". Perfect for your entire family to snuggle in, these blankets are a great choice for your evening outdoor plans in your garden too.
