The measurements on the box are defined as the
"sleep surface" of the bed or the area you would
cover with a fitted sheet. Some bed models may
appear larger due to features such as headboards
or expanded bases.
Aerobed inflatable mattresses are for
residential use, therefore they meet all
applicable Federal and State flammability
requirements.
The general weight guidelines are:
Twin size mattress - 300 lbs for 1 person.
Full size mattress - 450 lbs between 2 individuals.
Queen size mattress (both single and raised models) - 600 lbs between 2 individuals.

Aerobed inflatable mattresses are not designed
to be used as permanent everyday beds but only
to be used occasionally, as guest beds. If you
are using an airbed over several days, you may
need to occasionally add air as PVC stretches
over time.
Various solutions for finding and fixing leaks
in Airbeds
My airbed seems to be leaking. What can I do?
It is important to note that the firmness of your bed may decrease after you initially inflate it. This is normal and not an indication of leaking. The material is simply stretching after inflation. Add air to your desired firmness. If you believe your bed is still potentially leaking, follow the steps below:

Add air to your desired firmness. If you believe your bed is still potentially leaking, follow the steps below:
Leak Identification Process:
- To identify a leak, fully inflate
the bed and listen for any
hissing or other sounds that may
indicate a leak location. Place
your hand parallel to the
surface of the airbed
approximately 2 inches away and
slowly trace the surface of the
airbed. Most leaks are found on
the top surface, so check the
top of the surface first. If the
leak is not found, check the
side and bottom. If a leak is
found, follow the steps
below.
Leak repair with liquid sealant for flocked or laminated PVC: - Please note holes larger than 1/2
inches or cuts larger than 1
inch are unlikely to be repaired
successfully. Clean the bed with
a dry paper towel and then lay
the bed flat on the ground. This
will help the glue to say in
place while it dries. Apply
about a dime size of liquid
sealant (Seal all) to the bed
using a small circular pattern.
Wait 4 hours for the glue to
cure.
Leak repair with an adhesive patch for smooth PVC: - Please note holes larger than 1/2 inches or cuts larger than 1 inch are unlikely to be repaired successfully. Clean off the bed with a dry paper towel and lay the bed flat on the ground. Cut the repair patch in a circle. Apply to the bed making sure there are no wrinkles. Use your thumb to apply pressure ensuring the patch is completely adhered to the PVC.
The key to folding up a bed is to get as much
air out of it as possible. If your bed has a
deflate mode on the pump...use it. It's a great
tool. When using any pump on the deflate mode,
close the quick air release valve first or you
will be drawing more air into the bed and it
will never be completely flat. If your bed does
not have the deflate mode on the pump, open the
air release valve and let as much air escape as
possible...Aid the expulsion of air by pushing
down on the opposite end of the bed from the
valve. Start folding the bed up away from the
air release valve, leaving it open, working your
way towards it, so excess air can escape. Once
the bed is folded up, or all the air removed,
make sure you close the valve.
For small pin hole repairs we recommend a third
party product called “Seal All” that can be
purchased from most hardware stores. For more
extensive repairs, we recommend our Aerobed Patch Kit.
You can clean your inflated airbed with a damp
washcloth and mild soap. Take care not to get
the pump wet. Allow the bed to completely dry
before storing.
