How much space does it take up when it's deflated?

I am not good with sizes but I would guess 3' x 4' x 3'. The size is great but the weight, at least for a 71 yr. old, is heavy. I love this air mattress and use it instead of a normal mattress to support my back.

Not much at all. We fold it up and put it back in the box. Box is maybe 12" by 4" by 2"

No, it truly has a vaccum port so that you can remove ALL the air. Deflate wouldnt be enough to really get all the air out.

It deflates very easily. Just unscrew a knob on the side and it deflates in minutes. Then it rolls up and stores in a cloth bag. The bag has a strap for easier carrying.

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.

Not difficult to deflate , if you have a pump / deflator. Depends on how much of the air you pull out or remove , as to deflated size

Loosen the valve and do nothing else. It will self-inflate. If you want it to be even fuller, you can blow into the opened valve. When it inflated to your liking, close the valve. To deflate, open the valve and roll it up tightly. Then close the valve to keep it deflated. I carry mine in my purse rolled up and deflated. It takes up little room this way.

The pump does deflate the majority, you will have to fold up to get the last of the air out

It deflates in about 10-15 mins, to deflate quicker you can press it & fold it & roll it up. Roll the bed from the bottom, away from the air vent release & it will deflate quicker & fold nice & flat to store in the bag it came with.

No, its packed into something more like a large envelope and its deflated. You have to inflate it when you get it.

It deflates quickly. I think it took less than 5 minutes to deflate. I let it lay for a while before I folded it up and put it back in its bag.

deflates after one or two hours. Need to either return it or get something else.

When the air pump is off, this deflates and stores in the included bag that is about 12 inch x 12 inch, so very compact. The balls are what may be of concern for space. We ordered 4 bags of 200 balls. As long as you keep the bags they come in, which are zipper bags, storage isn't a problem. We should have ordered more balls because 800 barely cover the bottom.

As long as you have a big enough space. It is pretty tall when inflated, I'd guess at least 10 feet.

We have never left it inflated in the garage, only in an indoor climate. We do store it deflated in the garage though (on and off almost a year now)

My kids (ages 13 and under - and most of the work was done by a 9 year old) had it out of the box and ready to go in less than 10 minutes! Deflating - a little longer because there are several chambers that need to be deflated but still - not long at all, maybe 15 minutes tops if you're taking your time.

Take it to Mexico for sure! It doesn't take up much space in your suitcase. I've used mine before & now deflated & refolded, it measures approximately 1 " x 10" x 13". It may take a little time, but it's easy enough to blow up by mouth; however, I bet wherever you go they will have an automatic inflator that you can use. Have fun!
