Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I like camping but I hate sleeping on hard ground with rocks in your back. I have tried different mattresses and cushions but they just take a slight edge off and you end up rolling off of them in the middle of the night half the time. I was going to scout camp for a week with my son and there was no way I was going to spend it on the ground each night. I first was looking at normal cots to use with just a pad and sleeping bag, then I found this new glorious addition to my camping setup. It is not the actual size of a normal queen mattress but it is not far off either. The battery operated pump that comes with it makes blowing this up a breeze and had it up in a matter of minutes. The pump can also be used to suck out all of the air at the end of your trip as well. I was a little hesitant about sleeping on the frame of this thing because it doesn't look very sturdy. But dint have any problem holding my 250 lbs and my son for the week. I wouldn't go jumping on it or anything but it seemed sturdy and didn't have any issues. The only downside with the mattress was the fact that it looses air with use, but I have never met any one of these things that doesn't loose air. Every night before bed I would just top it off with the pump for a few minutes and it was good to go. It is obviously not as comfortable as a normal bed but it was the best camping experience I have ever had. Didn't wake up with sore bodies and with the sheets and blankets we added, it was almost just like home.
