Bought for my son for college - after 2 months started getting large bubble in the top that will not go away- is getting worse. He sleeps on floor now

My experience with a son in college is that they pile a whole bunch of people on to the air bed as if it were a regular sofa. So, they grossly exceed the weight limit which starts the bubbling effect. Nothing can resolve that problem, they have exhausted the intended use of the mattress.

Ours lasted about 3 months and now doesn't hold air. Big disappointment after paying more for it.

That was our experience. The company on has a one month warranty and two month return. Rather than post a negative review, as I did, why not threaten them with a negative review? At that point, there will be two bad reviews, which means that no one who reads reviews will ever buy their product. Maybe they will give you a refund. Unfortunately, we are out our investment.

Dear B. Meek, Intex makes a great product, in my experience. I suppose once in a while you can get a lemon, as with anything.....I would contact Intex and let them know. If the mattress was jumped on, or abused by other than sleeping, they can tend to lose pressure. They are not meant to be an everyday mattress, but rather for occasional use, generally speaking. But they can last for months, at least 6, with regular use. A friend of mine has had one inflated for 4 YEARS, but it is rarely slept on and gently used.Please contact Intex and have them replace it, hopefully, as I have never seen a large bubble on any I have had. May be defective. But again, I think their products are well made. kk Dear B. Meek, Intex makes a great product, in my experience.

I have the same problem. The foam is now buckled under the cover. Lots of money for inferior cover.

Could be a couple reasons:1. You over filled with air.2. Internal seams separated causing the swelling issue. I had a bed that I returned numerous times and it would have seam separation at the baffles. These products that are air filled from Intex and Coleman are all junk. They are a temporary fix. These can't be used for long term because they are designed horribly and puncture easily. Don't waste your money. Buy a real sofa or a real bed

Not that I have seen or heard. Mine is only about a year old. It is a sealed unit so I don't think it could. I have heard some people have had bigger bubbles in theirs so they sent them in and had the bubble size reduced or they just changed them out for them. Very happy with it otherwise

deflates after one or two hours. Need to either return it or get something else.

Definitely goes away. Standard with foam mattresses. Put a good mattress pad on it as a little better barrier until it breathes completely. Love my mattress.

I bought this bed for my 92 year old mother. I can't explain it but bladders in the same area developed leaks. We had the mattress repaired twice and used a loaner and they alwasy developed a leak. The mattress is supposed ot be good for 300 pounds and Mom is 145. Isuspect she was pressing down with her hands to get up and the mattress underside made too much contact with the metal support system of the bed under the mattress. I ahev since gotten a foam mattress. They can't leak.

I haven't had the issue at all and I've had it for 2 years. by reading reviews I think it was solved in fall 2008.

my son bought a 'zagg' on my amazon account. he said there is nothing for you to do but keep trying very carefully. the one he got is better because it gets rid of the air bubbles by itself over the period of a day or two. sorry i can't help more.

I had his mattress for one year, it developed a huge bubble, ant it look like its getting bigger..I don't think its because of to much weight, as I weigh 125-130 lbs..before this one, had a different one from wayfair which I only paid about $50, and it lasted me about 5 years..unfortunately that was discontinued..

The foam will give way and crack after a few months. It loses support at the edges (loses the "squareness") I would NEVER buy another LUCID or LINEN SPA foam mattress. Mine from March 2013 started cracking in the gel foam on top - the edge lost firmness and you roll off. No support after a few months. LUCID refused to honor 25 year warranty after requesting pictures of cracked foam. LINEN SPA was no help either. Let me know if you want to see the correspondence. I'm gonna find a more reputable company.

Cesar, The SoundAsleep Dream series is designed to be a very durable mattress. While the real purpose of any air mattress is to be used on a temporary basis, closer to a couple of times a week or month, this mattress will hold up for the continued 2 month use. Any period of time longer than that and you are likely moving beyond the traditional scope of use for the mattress. We do recommend a few tips for using your air mattress including: 1) fulling inflating and deflating the mattress a couple of times after you receive it to allow the composite material to fully stretch out, 2) topping up the mattress every couple of days with 10 - 15 seconds of air. Topping up a mattress is very simple but you can always go to our website for more information on the process 3) when using the mattress for an extended period of time we encourage people to a sheet or mattress pad. If you have any more questions please call or email support for any time.
