I am surprised there is much on here about them, it was after reading a review on here that we got ours must be 2 ago now.

We've both the double and 2 singles. Love 'em! The double is brill as you don't get the roll-together when one of you moves on it. Ours stays up easily for 4+ days, sometimes we do top it up, especially if the kids have been given the job of pumping the beds up whilst we pitch the tent.

Anyone asks me which air to bed, I recommend this one any day.

I hope you'll be as happy with yours

We bought one and it lasted about a season before it developed a leak that proved impossible to trace plus every morning woke up as if my back had been through a hangmans drop have now binned it for an Outwell posadas double campbed topped with a 5CM SIM bliss!!

We have a double although it doesn't get used now we have a TT. We found it very comfortable and particularly liked the fact that you could pump up the two sides to different pressures. In that respect, it is better than our TT foam mattress.

We've used ours on plenty of 2&3 night trips. Really comfortable, no roll together and never needed to top up. Use with a coleman sheet and duvet, snug as a bug!

We still have one from when we had a tent. We loved ours, no problems at all.

To be honest brilliant bed, had for two years and suppose well used. Only one puncture which was dealt with.

Problem we had, the valve went, see other posts. Coleman wouldn't help us out unless we proved purchase. So we went or camped option.

I miss our big bed.

We're on our third (double). The previous two developed faults within their two year warranty period and we got them replaced by the retailers on both occasions without any trouble. Number 3 has been OK.

We've been very happy with ours and found them comfortable.

Have upgraded to 2 Raised Active Aerobeds this year in part due to torn tendons in my wife's shoulder so sleeping on singles will be more comfortable for her and the aerobed singles are very wide.

Have 2 - first bought one 3 seasons ago and thought was brillant, use it maybe 8 weekend / weeks per year - still going strong, 

Last year bought a second, started to deflate on third outing, cant find where the leak is - nothing aparent so i am assuming it is around the valve as stays inflated untill it is layed upon and slowly defflates. So have mixed thoughts and am seriously thinking of sims now

Thanks guys - think I'll keep it and the receipt just in case. I guess every airbed has a chance of a puncture just by their very design :)

We got one at Christmas. One decent night and then it developed a leak - must have been a valve as no sign of tear or puncture - while were were away for nine days in France. Cut the valves out and returned them to the ebay retailer who refunded price plus postage without any hassle and bought an Outwell Serenity 7.5 double SIM at much greater expense but after nine dreadful nights on the Coleman I was prepared to invest.

I have fairly major back problems, have had a coleman dual comfort for over five years and not a single complaint about it. The foam mattresses on the TT I had and the FC I now have are no-where near up to the job, so I use the coleman on those too. I have read quite a few threads on here about them and seems that some people have had negative experiences, so maybe keeping the receipt is a good idea, but i hope you get as lucky as me and have years of comfort ahead!

We LOVE ours ... we were dreading having to sleep on an air bed .. but both myself and my OH slept really well, with no roll-to and it didn't bounce about if one of us got out either.
