Despite weighing less than 500g, this Sea to Summit sleeping mattress offers a whopping 10cm of cushioning and an ingenious air sprung cell pattern. Deflation: Each bed is inflated to its firmest setting, weighted down with heavy benches and left for 18 hours overnight. When inflating our air beds, we’ve used our lungs, supplied inflation bags, built-in pumps, and, when more effort was required, we relied on the Quechua hand pump. Measuring 15 x 9cm when packed it isn’t much bigger than a can of pop, and it takes no more than 30-seconds to inflate using the reliable one-way valve to a grown-up 183cm in length. The valves appear well made, the seams all feel secure, and the plush brushed-top finish is quiet and comfortable with a nice amount of grip for your sleeping bag.If you’re packing up the car and spending a week at a campsite, they’re worth the space in the boot. We love the fact it also comes with an expensive repair kit and a bag that can be used to inflate the air mattress saving your lungs after a long day’s hiking. They’re extremely comfortable and fun to sleep in for little campers, and you will never have to worry that you forgot a vital bit of sleeping equipment because it’s all included. This is especially welcome if you’re a side sleeper as most backpacking-ready mats will leave you with sore hips in the morning.
