What to look for in a comfortable guest air mattress

Air mattresses are not designed to be slept on long term but a good air mattress will still feel as though it’s a regular bed and give your guests a restful nights sleep.

Air mattresses vary in height but the higher the mattress, the easier it is to get in and out. Plus, it’ll also feel more like a regular bed. Since you have to pump up your air mattress, finding one that has a built-in pump will save you a lot of time.. Just like you’d expect from a regular mattress, some air mattresses have quilted tops. This gives an extra layer of luxury to your mattress and it will feel a lot more comfortable to sleep on.

Some mattresses, including ones we've included in this round up, also have coil technology, these mattresses have added support and stability whilst minimizing sagging or bouncing making for a much more comfortable sleep surface.

Just like when you buy a regular mattress it's always a good idea to buy the best you can afford, and there are plenty of cheap Amazon mattress deals available so you can get a good quality air mattress for less.
