Is this a self inflating pad? I don't want one that needs a pump.

This air matt is for hikers or those that need to pack small, there is a bag pump that you can get to fill this matt up, however its easy just to blow the thing up!

You have to inflate this mattress by blowing air into it. The instructions say it takes about 20 strong breaths to inflate the mattress.

It is very easy to inflate - comes with it's own air pump. It holds air well. Our daughter uses it as her every day bed.

This device must be connected to a compressor/source of compressed air. It is not a battery driven inflator.

Yes they are self inflating. You can then blow them up more by mouth, to make them firmer. We got them to use on top of a thin mattress to add support.

Hi, the item which i got has manual pump, it takes some time and energy to fill it, but it never deflates.

It comes with everything to inflate also a patch which you WILL need. I had mine on carpet, never moved and in six months it was leaking--A LOT! Deflated completely in two days. Buy a better one.

when we received ours, it was not necessary to be inflated (already done). However, I was not aware that it would come inflated already, so I'd purchased a needle tip pump when I ordered it.

This whole category of "self-inflating" pads is based on a type of foam interior which is compressed when the pad is rolled up, but expands to it's natural shape and size once you open the air valve. This expansion can take several minutes... you just unroll the pad, open the valve and leave it alone. A new pad or one that has been rolled up a long time may need multiple times to get to full size... open the valve, close after a few minutes, lay on the pad for a few minutes, then open the valve again.

You can inflate with the mouth or with a machine. Its not so big! Great for summer or travels! :)

Not really. I also inflate it with a few puffs and then adjust it to my desired level.

I do not pump this up.I inflate this using my own lung power and do not find it difficult at all.

No; it's a very decent sized single. You will certainly need a manual pump or better still an electric pump to inflate though!

It comes with an automatic pump. It also comes with a handy cigarette lighter charger. On our last trip we forgot to charge the pump, but we were able to plug it into the charger and inflate the bed while plugged in. Inflation only takes a couple of minutes

It inflates like a beach ball but. Definately not something you would want to blow up yourself though. I used a battery operated pump that I use for air mattresses.

I do not believe it is. It is designed to be used for cleaning purposes. I use a separate portable pump which I keep in my truck for such tasks. It plugs into the auxiliary power (old cigaret lighter slot ). It can be used to inflate auto tires in an emergency. If you enter "toy and tire inflaters in the search window of amazon it will bring up a bunch of them. I think the one I have cost about $15-$20.

It is best to use an air pump. I have a small one that I use for air mattresses and it works great. If you are taking it to a resort or pool, they may inflate it for you. I took mine to the Mandalay Bay and they aired it up for free. Worked great in the lazy river!

The product inflates without having to manually blow it up. You just unroll the mat and it inflates automatically.
