Double air beds deservedly occupy their niche in the market. They have a lot of advantages that make them not just in demand, but sometimes simply irreplaceable.
What are
Double inflatable beds are nothing more than a piece of furniture, moreover, frameless. Structurally, they consist of:
- Elastic shell. It serves as the bedding and is designed to give shape.
- Air chambers. They are filled with air when inflated and stretch the shell to the required size. In double beds, there are from 2 to 6 pieces.
- Inserts (transverse or longitudinal). They have the form of flat rhombuses or cylinders. In the process of inflation, they are filled with air, as a result of which they take a vertical or horizontal position. Their purpose is to give rigidity and stability. In other words, they hold the body, due to which the human spine does not bend unnecessarily.
- Valves for deflating and inflating.
What are they made of
- Vinyl (waterproof PVC). From this material, the shell, inserts and internal partitions are made. Vinyl is resistant to moisture, mechanical stress and abrasion. Due to these properties, double inflatable beds are suitable for repeated inflating / deflating, dragging and using in nature.
- Flexible plastic. Pump housings and valves are made from it. It perfectly withstands loads, does not break and does not burst under the influence of powerful jets of air.
- Flock. It is used to make the topcoat. This material is rough, so the sheet does not slip on it.
Application area
- Permanent berth. Air beds have a number of properties that make them inferior to conventional stationary beds.
- Guest sleeping place. This is a convenient solution for organizing an overnight stay. Double inflatable beds can be easily assembled, and then just as easy to remove.
- Tourist sleeping place. Inflatable beds are lightweight, in a deflated state they occupy a minimum of space, and are also easy to assemble and disassemble.
- Inappropriate use. Very often this type of frameless furniture is used during outdoor recreation.
Advantages
- Light weight.
- Mobility. Double inflatable beds can be easily moved, transported and carried.
- Practicality. Air beds are easy to assemble and disassemble, which allows you to quickly perform the required operations. Moreover, they can be washed with plain water, which greatly simplifies their maintenance.

disadvantages
- The vinyl cover can be damaged by sharp objects and pets.
- Flocked coating collects dust, catches threads and wool.
How to choose
The first thing to focus on is operating conditions. If the air bed will be used only indoors, then you should choose from models with a built-in pump. If it is planned to operate it on trips or outdoors, then it is better to opt for models with a mobile pump.
And then the choice of an inflatable bed should be done based on the physical indicators of a particular model. The more cameras, the more stable and stiffer it will be. The thicker the vinyl, the more reliable and durable it is. And be sure to ensure the presence of a flocked coating.
