- What Are Air Mattresses Made of.
- The different types of air mattresses.
- The different sizes and dimensions of air mattresses.
Now There is one last thing left to decide whether to buy or not, which is the strengths and weaknesses of the air mattress to show how suitable it is for you.
Why buying an air mattress might be the right decision.
1. A Great Choice for Back Pain
An air mattress is a great choice for back pain. This is because it comes with an adjustable inflation option. That allows you to control the inflation level from medium-firm to firm according to your needs.
A very firm air mattress is bad for your back and so is a very soft one. It is important to choose the best level of firmness so that your body takes the correct sleeping posture.
You can reinflate your air mattress regularly and keep it firm as it was the first time you got it.
In addition to that, an air mattress helps with spinal alignment and reduces pressure on your back and joints which relieves back pain if you already have it and prevents it from occurring at all in case your back is already fine.
If you’re a side sleeper, an air mattress will reduce pressure on your hips since its level of firmness helps to contour to the shape of your body to prevent the build-up of any pressure points.
2. Odor-Free
If you ever had a memory foam mattress, you must be familiar with the disturbing off-gassing odor a new memory foam mattress has. An air mattress, fortunately, does not have such a problem.
The PVC materials from which air mattresses are made are actually odor-free, and that’s a great advantage of air mattresses.
3. Low-Price
One of the best advantages of air mattresses is that they are affordable. Do not forget that the main raw material in the product is air.
Air mattresses are available at different prices ranging between $18 to $380, so you can get an air mattress that is as cheap as $18.
This is great compared to the prices of other types of mattresses.
4. Portability
An air mattress is also portable. If you want to take the mattress outdoors for camping, it is very easy and convenient to pack it with you.
They’re even smaller sizes of air mattresses that can be carried in a backpack for campers and multiple outdoor purposes. Not only the size but an air mattress is also very light to carry around which adds to the portability element.
5. Durability, No Sagging
Unlike memory foam mattresses that become sagging over time, an air mattress can always remain fresh as when you first use it because it can be reinflated regularly.
Air mattresses are usually made of PVC which is a durable material that is anti-sagging. PVC air mattresses enjoy a longer lifespan than other types of regular mattresses.
Whenever you feel that your air mattress has become quite soft over time, simply reinflate it according to your needs.
With an air mattress, you’ll no longer have to sleep on a sagging air mattress that can give severe back pain in the morning. You can adjust your air mattress to an inflation level of your preference.
6. Convenience
An air mattress is a very convenient alternative to a regular mattress. It is very easy to inflate and use.
All you need to do is to use either the built-in pump in case your mattress comes with one or use an external pump in case your air mattress is without a pump.You’ll have a comfortable bed to sleep one even for long-term use.
7. Easy Storage
An air mattress is also very easy to store. When you deflate the mattress, it gets so small that you can store it anywhere without worrying about the mattress taking up too much space.
All you need to do is to roll it after deflation and fold it carefully to store it in a safe place. This is a great advantage compared to other mattresses that take huge space to store.
8. A Great Choice for Sharing a Bed
Some air mattresses are available with two independent air chambers which are referred to as dual-chamber air
mattresses. Each of the two chambers lies on one side of the mattress, and each can be controlled separately.
For two individuals sharing one bed, this is a great option as it allows each individual to customize his/her own favorable level of firmness. This is another option that is exclusive to air mattresses.
