I tried a load of self inflating mattresses last year, after frustration with air beds (however found coleman airbeds an not had a problem since with airbeds) - my conclusion was that with self-inflaters you defiantely get what you pay for. The cheap ones were rubbish and the expesnive ones (Thermarest) were defiantely the best, and noticably better IMO.

So, spend what you can...

This may seem a daft question,(my OH insists I ask it) but...........................is there such a thing as a double self inflating mattress ?? 
Yes you can - my OH bagged one in Lidl a few weeks ago - but they are all gone now. I don't know if the other brands do one...

YOu could use sticky backed velcro along the edges of 2.

I've just got back f                     rom testing my new outwell - got the regular one for the kids & the 5cm thick versionfor myself . Personally Imuchprefer the extra thickness - well worth paying afiver more, although both were comfy.   Got themfrom outdoormegastore.co.uk
