HI

I bought a full height queen sized one for £70, it wasn't air tight and because I inflated it a few seconds per night the pump burned out - Intex didn't want to know.

I have since bought an Aerobed Delux £139 and in the year I've slept on it (house bed) I have inflated it about 3 times for a second or three in the full year.

Intex have deffo lost my trade! :-)

I found it very comfortable and a nice size

It lasted 3 weeks then deflated

Guarantee is only 3 months and limited on what it covers

I wrote it off as a bad buy and got the aerobed instead

If you have already got one I would blow it up and leave it like that for 3 months....

Just before you do. We got one the year before last - used it once for camping then the second time we used it at home for guests. It started letting out air and despite searching the whole thing I just couldnt find a puncture anywhere. It just wouldnt stay up. Ended up throwing it out - comfy but didnt last so a waste of money for us.

We bought ours from Tesco's last year, first ever camping trip, loved it, so much bigger and spacious, my hubbie is 6.1" so needs the extra length.  I agree that it needs topping up every other night or so, but easy enough to do when you have ehu. For us it seems that if it is topped up quite firmly then you dont roll together too much, but if you have a significant weight difference then this is unavoidable I think.
