think sleeping like a log while camping has more to with the fresh air than the bed.
It helps to only put enough air in a airbed so when u press it in the middle with you hand frimly you can feel the ground, so when you both get on it, it evens out and feels firm and supportive and not rock hard.
or just use cots..

I've been using the Colman dual chamber air bed for a while, but I always have a problem with the 'indents' in it (see the illustration above) I know they're on all airbeds, and that I shouldn't be having this problem (think princess and the pea !!) When I saw a double self-inflating airbed recently, I jumped at the chance to buy it. Not to use in it's own right, but to put on top of the colman airbed - as self-inflating mattresses have no 'indents', I have found this combination to be wonderful !!!

I have to admit, it wasn't a cheap option, at £40 for the self-inflating mattress, on top of the colman airbed (which I bought last year for £20-ish?? Not sure) but I will never go back to anything else the way I feel this week - after sleeping on it all last week, I didn't once have a twinge anywhere, or a problem getting comfy like I normally do. I'm one very happy camper

Hope this helps. LD
