Spare Bed
Lots of us live in smaller homes and apartments these days, and we might not have room for an extra bed. There might not even be another bedroom! So what can we do when guests come over to stay the night? Even if you have a large sofa, it’s not always the most comfortable place to sleep. If you have to sleep two people, it becomes even harder. A queen sized air bed is the perfect solution: big enough to fit two people, comfortable to sleep on, and when you’re done it folds up easily into a small package you can store in the closet. Queen air mattresses by Coleman, Intex, Aerobed and others are the same size as a regular queen mattress, so two people can easily share a bed. On the other hand, they’re made with durable plastic and a smooth, comfortable top so they’re quite comfortable. Most nicer models come with a built in pump, so you don’t have to sleep on a deflated mattress. Plus, when you’re done, you can release the air out of the mattress, fold it up neatly into a small package, and store it wherever you want.
Travel
Air mattresses are the perfect solution for extra sleeping in smaller living spaces, but since your air bed is so small, you can take it pretty much wherever you want to go. Young people especially are always traveling around, staying at friends’ places, and having their own bed can really make a great difference in comfort. If you’re planning an out of town trip and you don’t have a bed to sleep on, taking along an air mattress is a great idea. Some people even keep one in the trunk of their car just in case. You’ll never regret it, and if you have to use it one night instead of sleeping on the ground, you’ll thank yourself.
Camping And Outdoors
The best illustration of using an air bed while traveling is taking your queen size air mattress camping. Lots of people love to camp, but there are lots more who can do without sleeping on the ground. Even if you don’t mind sleeping on a flat, smooth surface, campgrounds are often rough and rocky. That can be really uncomfortable! The perfect solution is a battery powered air mattress that fits inside your tent. Most queen size mattresses fit a 4-6 person tent, which is a medium to large sized tent. You’ll sleep great, even on rough terrain. In fact, Coleman air mattresses started out as camping gear before people discovered that they work great at home, too. If you’re taking the kids, consider bringing along a twin air mattress for them, too.
Air mattress technology has come a long way since 20 years ago, and if you haven’t checked out what’s available today, you should visit your local sporting goods store or department store to see the different types you can get. Aerobed, Coleman, and Intex all make great, comfortable air beds that you’ll find many uses for.
