does this mattress off gas?

Smell of gas? Conceal your gas?It smells a little funky at first but as the directions say, it dissipates after the given time frame which was maybe 12-24 hours. Afterwards and with the cover on, it was never an issue for me.

We set it up 2 days before guest were expected just in case it needed airing, but ours did not. We let it sit for 2 hours before adding bedding anyway.

It is if you store it for any length of time. I usually turn off the fuel valve and let it run out of gas.

There is just the cover on the outside. I put a twin size mattress pad over it because you can feel the line where mattress folds and there is some off gas odor. The mattress cover fixes both issues though. It really is a great portable bed.

I don't recall there being any smell and I have a problem with chemical odor. Although I don't use it often, this has been a useful spare bed for me. In my experience, none of these inflatable options can survive constant use.

No, no, and no. This is a very good, very comfortable air mattress with some outstanding features, the best of which is the automatic virtually silent "never flat" secondary inflation pump. I guess you could wipe the suede-like top down with a damp rag, - best solution is use a mattress pad and don't get the bed dirty. We slept on ours for months and they were never dirty enough to wash.

Nope, but you don't need to. It doesn't say over time like normal mattresses.

No,it has not. I love mine. I bought a second one. We are full time RV's. So I have 3 burner gas. It's great helps to not have hot spot actually. I keep the one without for my tea kettle.

Yes, actually our dog recently had an accident on our bed and it was there for a little while before we noticed it, the mattress wasn't wet at all and there was no odor left behind, rather large amount as we have a 65# dog, can't say the same thing about my down comforter....

No, no smell. No off gas odor at all. I really like this mat. Have no complaints.

Yes it does but if it is a mattress you are trying to blow up, I would get the Coleman Quickpump. It is rechargeable, inflates & deflates. I've got 3 & have pumped up all brands of mattresses with it. And best yet, there is no manual pumping action required by you.

There is no fuel odor when the unit is turned off. If there were, it would indicate that was a leak.

I'm not positive but I'm pretty sure it's all natural. The only way to really know is cut the mattress and test it in lab. However, it had zero off gassing and my bed buddy is allergic to synthetic latex(no problems as yet). Great mattress and I'm happy with it. It's thinner than the super expensive latex or regular coil comp but it works perfect for us. I have it on a platform bed.

Hi. I'm writing from Naturepedic again. I responded to this earlier but just realized that I probably initially misunderstood your question. You said 'will this contain' not 'does this contain' so I believe you meant to ask if this product would prevent the flame retardants in a conventional mattress from off-gassing. Correct? The answer is no. To contain the off-gassing you need a complete seal - no possibility of air leaking out anywhere.

Yes it does use gas, but the good news is that I,'ve found that it doesn't use much gas plus its very easy to push. I, too, bought a mower for my Dad about 35 years ago.

Yes! We bought a new trailer and it was full of all kinds of chemical smell. It took a while for all those materials to "out gas". But the Health mate made it possible for us to use the unit without getting any headaches.

No, you just have to push on the mattress to see how firm you want it and when it hits that point, you shut the pump off.

No. We did not have that issue. Maybe it is overheating slightly, and off-gassing since it is new. I find that a lot with new plastic goods/furniture. If it lasts for more than a few days, I'd be concerned.
