would you recommend this air bed for camping? does it deflate quickly for packing?

I don't go camping, but it may be difficult to transport (i.e. if you're backpacking) as it's heavy. I believe it takes about 10-15 minutes to deflate, and it does pack up neatly.

We use ours for guests that visit our RV. It needs 120vac power to inflate. It does deflate very quickly. It is very comfortable.

I have a queen sized double stack Coleman air mattress and it fits in with ease. Plus room to move around the bed and stand up fully,though I'm only 5'3", there's enough room for a 6ft person to also get around with ease. Lanterns can be placed on the floor or there's a small hook on the top for mini lanterns. Nothing too heavy though. There's like 2 extra feet of room on each side of the air mattress. I also use fans at festivals... In a normal tent you die in the heat, but with the rain flap off and a small fan the tent stays cool because of all the mesh and a good breeze. You won't regret buying this tent. I've used it more than I can count since I bought it last year it's roomy and tough, holds up in terrential winds and rain even half-assed steaked down.

It deflates and inflates quickly, so that shouldn't be a problem. I've never repacked it in its bag, so don't know how difficult that might be, but the air-mattress probably weighs about 20 pounds.

We actually don't use it for camping. We use it as an airbed in our home for when we have extra visitors. If I had to take a guess, I would say it would be fine on slightly uneven ground, it's pretty sturdy. Worst case scenario, wedging something underneath the stability poles might do the trick.

I used it for a week straight, setting it up and taking it down every morning and evening. I had no problems with the tent floor, or the cot. Just double check the dimensions because the cot is quite large.

This is a GREAT bed. It inflates super fast and the same with deflating. The Queen size is a little heavy but WAY WORTH IT. This bed is so comfortable, you won't regret your purchase.

It is easy to deflate and fold up. But getting it back into the storage bag is difficult. I ended up buying a large bin to store all of it including air compressor. That was so I don't have to fold it too tightly to squeeze into the bag (irritating). I put the bin in my garage. It's large. Taking it out and putting it away is a process.

Right out of the box you should inflate it as soon as possible and not put any bedding on it. It does have a strong odorand will probably bother the person sleeping on it. The longer you air it the less odor there will be

I use an electric pump for air mattresses that I got at Target in camping section for $20. Works great and you can inflate the tubes really quickly.

Hi I bought mine just before a camping trip --It inflates with the separate air blower that takes 4 D size battery's --I had one that had the pump built in and it would go soft halfway through the nite --Enjoy ---Rog

It came in a small size package, after deflation, get small again but has to be very well deflated. The canopy is a simple structure which bends. Yes, you can pack for travel.

I did not have any problems with it pushing air. I have a double high queen matress and it was able to inflate very firm. I took it on a 10 day camp out without having to change the batteries and I used it a little every morning, I also loaned it out several times. I would say it has a pretty long battery life.

The AeroBed Twin that I purchased came with it's own draw-string bag (not a box) for storage. I deflate it, fold it like a very large towel, in thirds, lengthwise, then roll it up. It fits perfectly into it's storage bag when rolled that way. When contained, it's about the size of a one-person sleeping bag. It is surprisingly light given its sturdiness and is very easy to carry and stow. Much easier than the predecessor model, which I had for many years.

Yes, it does. It takes just a couple of minutes to inflate or deflate the airbed.

I've deflated the bed several times and had no problems. I put the bed back in the bag that was provided and store in a closet. Hope this helps.

The tent has plenty of screens and a roof vent that works well. I would not try to sleep in it with the vent not open all of the way or it will be stuffy. I found that with the roof vent open and the screens partially open it does fine in both summer and winter. The tent handles the rain without any leaks and is a breeze to setup even by yourself. I recommend putting a tarp underneath it to protect the floor from anything that might puncture it. The tent handles the wind really well and makes camping enjoyable by not having to fight with poles coming apart. Best tent for your money in my opinion!

Deflating is a breeze! It comes with a zippered bag for easy storage. Love the bed!
