How long does it take to inflate? I couldn't get the garment to inflate. The motor is working fine and the oring and connection look fine too.

If the fittings,O rings and connections are all proper it takes only 10to 20 seconds to inflate starting at the feet

It usually takes around 25 to 30 seconds as the the total time it takes to inflate and deflate is usually 2 minutes in total.

It takes only a few moments to inflate, check the connection to the pump, make sure it's secure and the right side up, also check all the lines so there is no air leaking from them. If all else fails, you can contact the vendor, they've been very responsive to questions.

Hello... It inflates for as long as the batteries last. I suggest you take extra batteries. I would say each about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Depending on the batteries.

Your ball is underinflated. If I remember correctly you should inflate until ball is 22 inches in diameter.At that size your problem will be solved.Reread instructions.

I did not time the time for inflation. However I did notice that the inflation speed of the newer Aerobed was a little bit slower than the first model. I believe because this newer version does not have that clunky external motor that the internal motor may not be as powerful. With that said, I did not find the time it took to inflate this mattress to be unacceptable. I plugged it in, turned the knob - no more holding a button, and waited a minute perhaps.

Hi there I just re packed this machine and returned it to the manufacturer. Iits have had it for less than 3 months and it does not work . The manufacturer says it will repair not replace and I had to pay for the shipping back to Oregon where the repair center is . I do not have any idea how long it will take to fix not did the offer to give me a time frame . My best advice is to NOT but this machine . I know this was not what you asked and I can not respond to that since I just shipped the machine back, but regardless whether it does take Bolivares do not spend you money on this trash .

Ours came inflated to the correct pressure. You can pump it up with a standard inflating needle and pump.

I use an electric air pump and it inflates quickly in less then 5 minutes. Your time may vary depending on pump. To be honest the center foot pillow takes longer to inflate due to the small diameter of the air valve. I always deflate after use and store back in my garage. The larger diameter air valves on the outer main floats allow it to deflate in just a few minutes. Hope this answers your question.

The mattress has a built-in 120 volt pump to inflate the mattress so the normal inflation process involves plugging it into a 120 volt outlet. However, I'm going to be using it this weekend at a site with no electricity. I will be using a Coleman battery powered (4 D batteries) pump to inflate it. It takes 10 minutes to inflate with the Coleman pump. However, the mattress does not get as firm with the Coleman pump as it does with the built-in pump. There is a 5/8" opening in the middle of the control knob on the mattress in which an external pump can be connected. The Coleman pump calls it a "Boston Adapter". So any external pump with a 5/8" outside diameter connector can be used to inflate the mattress.

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!

It inflates fairly quickly- better than the inflatable bed I had previously. We've used it a half-dozen times so far and have been happy with its performance and comfort. Hope this helps.

I'm a 71 year old female. I don't need help; I inflate it myself with the included pump. It takes me 3 minutes to inflate the kayak with the pump and a couple of more minutes to inflate the seat and foot cushion/ballast, usually by mouth, although you can use the pump. The only assembly is strapping the seat in place. The only disassembly is unstrapping the seat. It takes me 7-10 minutes to deflate it and a few minutes to fold it up, I'd say 12-15 minutes to get it deflated, folded, and put back in the carry case. The paddle takes a minute to snap together and less than that to take apart. I'm a 71 year old female. I don't need help; I inflate it myself with the included pump.

It inflates pretty fast. We gave it to a grandson and our daughter recalls it being well under a minute.

Just release the air as instructed. It may take a couple of tries to get it. It took me a couple of tries and now it's fine.

Got to be honest my inflatable SUP deflates as soon as you unscrew the ports but I would think the deflation should be faster than the inflation so for me that's less than 3 or 4 minutes.
