Self inflating Mattresses, as in SIMs, are made of open-cell foam.
The foam is covered by a fabric cover, and has air valve(s) to let air in and out.
When not in use, the air is expelled from the foam, to reduce its packed volume.
When in use, one opens the air valve(s), enabling the foam structure to expand and regain its form.
Some mattresses require one to blow into it a couple of times to aid the expansion process.
The effectiveness of the SIM is largely dependent upon its thickness. The thicker the mattress the more comfortable it will be. Therefore, it is usually advisable to get the thickest that one can afford.
