After buying the walmart one, this one got posted. Might return that one and get 2 of these instead. Will need beds for the holiday sleepovers.

Thanks OP.

This was $25 at Walmart around April 2023. Wish I got 2 at the time.

The queen is a better deal but takes up too much space for 1 person to sleep on.

Yeah I was thinking about returning the one I ordered from Walmart yesterday also but...the Walmart deal was 29.98 and it's $6.99 shipping (I don't have Walmart+).

This is $35 w/ free shipping (I have Amazon Prime.)

So I'd only be saving about $2 or so. Not worth the hassle to return..

I bought this (or whatever the equivalent was a few years ago) and absolutely do not recommend Intex. Visitors used maybe 4-5 times over 2-3 years and a hole ripped on the side (I think from rolling/folding) for storage. Patched it fine but then over time the mattress started deflating throughout the night and needed to be pumped 1-2 times to be usable. Wasn't even the patched hole. Turns out there is a very common issue with the seal around the pump panel. You can find some solutions digging around on google and YouTube - sealant, etc. It's really been a pain to deal with so I just ended up cutting it up and using the plastic for another project.

If I'm not mistaken I don't think any of those were TruAire.

The 13" TruAire Queen is also available for $40: https://slickdeals.net/f/16974742-13-intex-truaire-luxury-air-mattress-w-built-in-electric-pump-queen-40-free-shipping-w-prime

You're right the one from Walmart was the HighComfort model not the TrueAire.. which based on the longevity reviews from this brand I don't think it's going to matter either way.

Agreed. I have an Intex used maybe a total of 14 nights and it doesn't hold air. I've bought repair kits and got a decent sized pin hole sealed but there's a micro crack elsewhere that I've given up on locating. I suppose I could use soapy water but I don't care enough and haven't had the need to use it for some time. Also, normal weight people only ever slept on it.

After burning through numerous air beds for guests, I finally decided to purchase a couple Coleman cots a few months ago and have yet to regret the decision. These things are trash and I finally got sick of apologizing to people in the morning.

I have had good luck with Englander air mattresses. I have 4 and only had one get a slow leak over the past couple of years, and they are honored their 5 year warranty with no issues.

Where can I find the 5 year warranty? I can't find it anywhere.

edit: NVM it's on Englander's website. That's a very nice warranty! Thanks
