Bought a dozen before Christmas - All were in fine condition andto my knowledge so far are still in similar condition - You may be the recipient of a bad or defective batch from manufacturer .Best - P C LA

I've used mine extensively on grass, turf, and cement for months now and I have had no problems with deflation. I guessing that in your case there may have been a defect in the ball, unless you've played in places with sharp objects.

I had the same problem too. I used my air compressor and just stuck the end in the hole and stuck a rag around in the hole to clog it. It took me about 30 min. to get the thing inflated,but I finally got it.Hope this helps you out.

Yes, the unit deflates my towable quickly. The Rave will do both inflating and deflating. I love it...could never get my inflatable nice and tight before I purchased this.

All air beds are a little noisy. It sounds a vacuum. Takes about five minutes to inflate. 5to eight minutes to deflate. Not a bed as long as you order the dual chamber one. Ten times more comfy. The single inflate is highly uncomfy. Just watch around the chord holder cup. It is a easy spot the get a leak. But it is a good bed for travel. I have to dual chamber and I live far away from my friends houses so the bed is very convenient.

I had a queen On my way! And it deflated over night. Was worthless. Went and bought a real lift for my bed. And you need more than one person in the bed to use the wedges.

Buy an air pump that has a deflate option and it is a piece of cake. Deflated it goes in the box it came in. I bought two and my grandkids beat them to death wrestling, running on them and jumping off them for two weeks of daily abuse. Love these floats. Great buy.

The one I bought for my toddler deflated within a week of using, so I bought another product. I would not buy this under any circumstance.

The separation issues are due to over inflation. I had mine for 3+ years using it daily i'd only have to ad air once every few weeks. I bought one for a friend around the same time I got mine and his only lasted a year but he had a tendency to aim for the firmest he could get resulting in the sections violently separating one by one till it was a round mass on the top n bottom. if you use it right it's not an issue. if you need it that firm you prob shouldn't be getting an air mattress. I've bought several more over the years for friends and family and am about to buy another one the people having this issue over inflate simple as that.

The initial inflation is not that loud - less than a hair dryer I would say. It only takes a few minutes to inflate/deflate completely

Mine deflates at least 50% between uses. It's annoying, but it's so fast to reinflate that I don't care. If you're using it a lot it will be inconvenient.

Mine is packed away at the moment but I think Lumpy has it about right........it's definitely smaller than a queen and that is why I like it in my small tent.One tip.......do NOT sleep with your head at the release valve end, I did this and much of the air leaked out in the night and I found myself sleeping on the ground. We woke up at 2:30 am, re-inflated, flipped our sleeping bags and all is well again.It's a very comfortable mattress but I spent way too much time inflating it this time and I don't know why. I am thinking a pump will make it faster.

It takes minutes to decompress, but don't expect a full sized bed in minutes; it definitely takes time. I received mine on Saturday (9/5/15) and I still don't think it's in its full form.

we had one of these at my local game store i weigh around 300 and we had 3 people on it and it still didn't deflate, i think the durability comes with luck though, since this thing is held together with seams.

It usually takes me only a few breaths to blow it up. When you blow into it try slightly pinching at the base of the piece that sticks out. Doing this allows more air to flow in at once. Also do this when deflating.

We had an air pump at the hotel and they blew it up for us. The second time I let the kids blow it up they are 12 and 13. I think it's harder to deflate. lol. Good luck and enjoy

I got one in October 2013 and they still had the beach ball style air valve. I didn't have a problem with the floor deflating and it worked grate for what I needed. Maybe a defect with your last one???

Can't help you there. But I love it, packs small, adjustable thickness. Blow it up until comfortable. Had mine for 4 years, no problems.
