Best Inflatable Bed by Fox Airbeds - Plush High Rise Air Mattress in King, Queen, Full and Twin (Queen)

I've done my share of air mattress sleeping for the past 20 years. This bed is a total buy as long as you don't mind the bulk and weight. It's definitely not going to fit in a backpack, and you're not going to want to carry it around town for long.Pros --The pump is great, and fast.The pump also deflates all the way down zero air, makes folding easy.It's a full size bed, probably taller than the one in your bedroom.It's massively comfortable.It stays inflated which is a total surprise. Like all other air mattresses it loses a bit of air on the first night, but for the second and beyond, it's solid.I think I like it as much as I like my big expensive bed in my bedroom, or at least it's very close.Cons --The bag it came with is junk and lasted one day. Get a military grade duffel bag, don't bother with one it came with.It's heavy -- but for this much of a bed I can live with that.The pump is kind of loud, but not really louder than other air mattresses.There is so much air in there that it doesn't really warm up if you fill it full of cold air. You may need a fuzzy blanket as a buffer between the mattress and the person. Again though, probably the same for all mattresses in this class.

7 family members came for my nieces wedding and I ended up on a new King-size Fox Airbed. I think I got the best deal. The King-size Fox Airbed is taller than hotel beds and feels larger than a regular king-size. Its stiff all the way to the edge so my Rottweiler had no trouble with her 'landings'. The only time I knew she was on my bed was when she landed on me!! ;0). The next time I'm invaded by my "Beloved Human Hoard" I will be even kinder and will give them this air bed to sleep on. It was wonderful--Huge and Heavy from its sturdy construction but wonderful.UPDATE: Today I got the response from Fox Air Bed. They give a 90 day warrantee, and though my king-size airbed was wonderful initially, my guests and I only used it for a cumulative total of 4 about weeks. I didn't get a puncture instead the actual side-seam burst a 1 inch opening. Because the rip is in a 'sunken-in' portion of the seam the patch didn't hold despite following every detail of the repair/patch instructions. I can no longer recommend this product. The air pump and comfort were fabulous but considering how quickly the King-size Fox Air Bed 'died'-- it is not worth the money spent.

We bought this as a spare room bed, rather than going to the expense of a standard bed, frame, etc. we can free up space when we don't have company or when we eventually convert the room to a kids room, we won't have to deal with all the standard bed.The bed has worked out great so far. It is firm when lying on it, pretty comfortable for an air bed. It airs up easily with the built in pump. I do like having the option to use a different pump if we use it away from the house. The edges gett a little unstable when rolling or sitting on the edge, so you can get a bit of a feeling like you will roll off. Overall, the bed seems to be good.

Update 9/8:My fears about the marginal 90 day warranty were correct. Just two weeks after the warranty expired, I was giving it the daily inflation (because this thing has leaked air every night since day one, it even eventually started to leak air during the day with nothing on it but sheets and pillows) and the thing bubbled on me. The sides and bottom collapse in and the top bulges out (see pictures). People here describe the same exact thing that has happened with their beds.What a lemon product. I am trying to contact the company, but I doubt it will do me any good.This thing is sturdy, and it could last two years with the max 500 pounds every night and require minimal inflation, if it was put together with quality. If I want something that will only last 3 and a half months, I will go to Walmart and spend a quarter of the price. Very unhappy with this product. Unfortunately, there really is nothing else like this bed to buy. It is exact size in height, length, and width. Besides very poor construction, the thing has some thick rugged skin and is super durable. You're only as strong as your weakest link though. In this case, the thick and durable skin is only as good as the poor quality and/or thinly applied glue on both the external and internal seams.Original Review:This thing is great, but it has some annoying flaws which I had to dock some stars for. Disappointing since every review on here was either great or a lemon.The good things: it is that is is true to size, and a fitted sheet...fits. The bed feels like some durable construction that hopefully will last. Even the puncture patch kit is nice and thick, you know it will work if you accidentally put a hole in this. The bed is comfortable when fully inflated, and besides getting on, feels like a real bed. The sleeping surface isn't too great though, but all air mattress' are going to be the same. A fitted bed pad fits and stays on perfectly.Now for the annoying: The deflation plug/pump hole with connection for a handheld pump is a great concept, but is not sealed well at all. This is the culprit for almost all the slow leaking I've encounted. Wrapped it up with some thread tape and the bed only became mushy with a night's sleep, not dropped a whole two inches like it did before. I'm going to tape it up even more, but it gets docked a star because of this. I should not have to do this, the plug should have a much better seal.Next star off is because this thing has no auto pump. The pump doesn't even have an auto shutoff, which could lead to over inflation and decreased longevity. An auto pump combined with a plug hole that did not leak so much would make this thing almost perfect. I shouldn't have to manually inflate this every day after it gets mushy. The pump is for inflating the bed from fully deflated to fully inflated in about five minutes. It is super loud which only adds to the daily annoyance and inflating it.Last little thing: The bed only comes with a 90 day warranty. Now, I spoke about how it feels durable, but the warranty puts some questions in the back of your head. If the company was very confident with their product, they'd put their money where their mouth is and instead of a measly three months offer three years instead.I am a college student without money for a real bed, and had to buy one for my new apartment when I moved in. This gets slept on every night and I need it to last. I am only 200 pounds, well below the weight limit of this bed. It should not lose air so easily, and have an automatic pump for when it does inevitably lose some.Last little thing which is only a slight annoyance: The pictures on here make it look like the bed is a very dark charcoal color, almost black. The real color is a hideous light grey which brings the aesthetics of my room down.If this company comes out with a new model bed with all of the above changes, I would buy it in a heartbeat. For now though, I'm stuck with filling this up every day and hoping it lasts a while. I don't think I would buy this again.
