Camping Mats, Airbeds & Chairs > Outwell Camping Mats, Airbeds & Chairs

Not bad for the cost

Advantages: large, easy to store at home, cheap
Disadvantages: heavy, slippery, sometimes deflates

I have used this bed on several trips now and i would recommend it to anyone, if they plan on undertaking a trip where comfort is a priority, and weight is less important. Brilliant in large tents and as a an extra matress for when your mates come round, or when you go round to theirs, it is easily slipped in the back of the car or under the bed. There is also far more space on the bed than expected and in fact more than 2 people could easily get ...
...is remarkably large and takes up a fair amount of space as well as being rather heavy so i would advise this to be left in the cupboard for any backpacking trips. It is also rather annoying that when you wake up you can be some 5ft from where you went to bed as the matress often slides around on tent floor and you can slide around on it to, so it is not guaranteed that when you wake up you will not be lying on the freezing cold floor. Finally the ...

Review of Outwell Classic Flock Airbed

Comfortable, quick to inflate and doesn't leak.

Advantages: Each side inflates separately allowing for different weights and preventing sinking in middle.
Disadvantages: None really

...are now on our second Coleman comfort bed as the first one sustained a puncture and we were too lazy to repair it! The best thing about this airbed is that you pump each side up individually. This prevents the 'sinking into the middle' effect that normally happens after a couple of days. It also means that you can inflate each side to your individual needs (softer on one side for example). The last time we used our airbed, we needed to top it up ...
...it's quite difficult to get it back into it's little bag, and the little bag with our first Coleman split during the effort. All in all if space is not an issue for you when camping, in my opinion you can't go too far wrong with this air bed. ...

Review of Coleman Comfort Bed Double

Raised double Aerobed

Advantages: space saving; quick to put up
Disadvantages: needed air top up every day; only lasted 3 days

The raised double Aerobed does everything the ads say, it is space saving, easy to put up and fairly easy to pack away again. The major draw back was that it only lasted 3 nights normal use before the one side seam split. Argos refunded me in full with no problem. My guests were forced to sleep on an old camping air bed we had and later said our £20 camping air bed was firmer and more comfortable for them than the Aerobed had been. Won't be buying ...

Review of Aero Luxury Series AeroBed

* My Inflatable Friend ; ) . .

Advantages: Small, comfy, brilliant.
Disadvantages: Not as good as a full size pillow.

My Inflatable Friend (You should have heard my first title!!!) ; ) These pillows are fantastic, in my case, I used to make do with an old pillow case stuffed with a couple of jumpers or whatever came to hand, but now I have one of these, I realise how good they are. I use if for the occasional bit of camping, but mainly nights away when truck driving. I had heard of these a long time ago, but after trying several camping shops, as well as local ...
...but straight out of the blue, a mate of mine came round and threw one at me! I accepted it with thanks, thinking it was not quite as good as I thought. However, after giving it a good testing while on a night away in Norfolk, I found that it was the best thing that had ever happened to me. It's only something that supports me, but the comfort I felt that night, made me wish I had gone for this option years ago. Thanks my friend, it must be fate! ...

Review of Intex Inflatable Pillow

One Monster Mattress!!!

Advantages: Very comfortable, easy to inflate
Disadvantages: Bit large for little old ladies, bit smelly when new

...one we bought was a Coleman raised quick bed large single mattress. It was reduced from £42.99 to £34.99 but dad needed to buy a pump to get it to inflate, and this set him back another £12.99. Dad was quite pleased with his purchase, but he still moaned that he knew the holiday would cost him "a bloody fortune". We lugged the mattress back to the caravan after we'd wandered round the local town for a bit and took in some sights, and nan bought some ...
...our luxurious abode, dad set to work on inflating the mattress. I was impressed with the pump and the speed with which it made the mattress inflate. However, I don't think any of us were quite prepared for the actual size of the mattress, once fully inflated. Dad had set to work inflating it at the side of the caravan, on the grass. Within about fifteen minutes, we were presented with the most enormous mattress - far bigger than I'd imaged. So big, ...
