Can an inflatable mattress be used as a permanent bed?
This question comes up regularly and since the latest advances in terms of electric inflatable mattresses in recent years, with in particular the names "permanent airbed", we are tempted to believe that an inflatable mattress can be sufficient to sleep on it every night with no problem. The answer is clearly no ! Of course, this will be nuanced depending on your inflatable mattress.
For a limited time
So, obviously, not all inflatable mattresses are created equal and they must therefore be clearly distinguished. "Classic" inflatable mattresses or mattresses with integrated inflators will be more than enough to spend 2 or 3 nights, but beyond several consecutive nights on them, you will clearly feel your back numb and you will not recover as well as on a real bed. Electric inflatable mattresses can allow you to get as close as possible to the comfort of traditional bedding, but this will vary greatly depending on the model. We recommend that you favor products from 69€. Below this threshold, you risk being disappointed with the result.
For more comfort, opt for the top of the range
Of course, some models of inflatable mattresses are particularly comfortable! If you want to get as close as possible to the comfort of a real bed, you will have to opt for (very) high-end electric mattresses such as the Intex Premaire Range.
These inflatable booster beds are designed to support your body as best as possible. The air is evenly distributed over the entire surface of the mattress, to provide you with comfort comparable to that of a real bed. However, even if these "airbeds" are very comfortable, they are only an extra solution that cannot match the comfort of good bedding. We therefore advise you to sleep on it for a few weeks at most, while waiting to (re)find your traditional bed.
New tracks
At present, therefore, nothing replaces a real bed to spend your nights in the best conditions, but it is not excluded that in the future, inflatable beds will become so efficient that they will take the instead of our classic beds. Indeed, inflatable mattresses like inflatable mattresses are constantly innovating to offer their customers mattresses worthy of the name. For example, Intex, the world leader in inflatable mattresses, has developed a revolutionary new fiber that is more comfortable and resistant.
