Will it inflate without a plug?

you have to plug it into a wall socket to inflate it. I don't think there is anyway to inflate it without plugging it in. I didn't see a way nor did it mention how to do that in the instructions, without plugging in that is.

I haven't tried to inflate it manually with an air pump. There is a hole where the air exits when being deflated, and I can't tell if anything is inside that can potentially block air from entering. The attached 2 prong power cord is about 6 ft. in length and it does state on its warning label for "indoor use only." I hope that helps.

I am not sure that it can be inflated without the plug, but I never took the time to learn if it is possible. Unfortunately, I no longer have the matteress or the instruction manual; otherwise, I would look it up for you. However, you may be able to google it. My apologies for not having a better answer for you. Ciao

Inflating the ball with the included foot pump does not require a special valve. I wish it did. My only complaint about the ball is: during inflation, one looses half the air while disconnecting the foot pump.

Not at all! It comes with an electric pump and takes about 2-3 minutes to fully inflate.

Yes it does have to be plugged in for the house to stay inflated. The cord is aprox 6-8ft. I have to use an extension cord.

It does require electricity to turn on the pump. There is no option to inflate it manually. If you have a car ac inverter you can plug the bed into the outlet. All you need is an extension cord. It blows up in just under two mins.

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

no, the mattress has springs under it but would not be comfortable without being inflated.

June, I personally have never had to deflate it but I can't foresee that as any problem. Just pull the plug and let it deflate. Inflating it was simple! Hope this helps. P.S.This is still a HUGE favourite with my granddaughter. Can say enough good about this product!

No one says that you need to have air pump in order to inflate the ball.I purchase this and not able to play since i don't have air pump. Make sure you get air pump too.

No, you hook this up to an air hose connected to an air compressor. It needs an air source to inflate tires.

I would say a bicycle or other air pump is necessary to inflate this - DO NOT try to blow it up yourself, it won't be sufficiently inflated.

It has to be plugged in to work. There is a semi-quiet fan going that keeps it inflated. It can be staked to the ground.

There is no plug since it is a fold up tub, so you just have to be careful not to overfill it.

No, It comes with a 115v inflating fan/blower. I suppose you could use it with a car battery by using one of those plug in inverters.

No. You just have to blow air in to the valve. It does take a lot of effort to inflate the first time. When you deflate the float, it goes faster when you squeeze the valve.

No, It doesn't inflate. I put it on before the airbed is fully inflated and it fits very well. It won't hurt the mattress.

No. It had a 3 pronged plug. Just plug it in and your ready to go! Really puts out a lot of air.
