William T –
the air mattress appeared with a ball in the center, it happened on a hot day.
very comfortable, but bad quality. only used for 20 days.

Here’s the deal. Somewhere in the fine print it says for intermittent use only during the course of the one year warranty. This means like maybe a month out of one year use and you may be okay. In other words, it ain’t gonna last a year under constant use. Having said that, the ones made 20 years ago may have lasted that long but these new ones either leak or more commonly blow their shapes out. They are comfortable though and with my bad back they are almost a necessity. I’m lucky if I get a couple months use.

I hate false advertising in ANY form. This airbed is clearly shown with the nifty rolling flap to hold it together once it’s rolled up. This feature is one of the main reasons I keep coming back to Coleman airbeds. This airbed does NOT have it, even though it is shown in the picture as having it. False advertising is never going to cut it with me, no matter how good the product itself is. Without this flap an airbed is just cumbersome and hard to pack efficiently.

Failed second night camping. Slow leak.
I’m meticulous about my camping gear. I’ve had a 50 year old Coleman gas lamp, 30 Year old stove. I inherited the first generation green cooler with beer bottle opener from my father. We’ve used all of these things year after year, with all Mother Nature could throw at us. They get cleaned up, tuned up and were ready to go, reliably and with confidence.
All of that is gone with the brand now. I also owned a Coleman camping mattress for many years, Of course we all know that’s not a 10, 20 or 30 year product. But after the experience with this new mattress and reading the rest of these reviews it’s sad to say that the brand has not kept up anywhere near the quality level of the brands past history.
I also recently bought a new cooler. Nostalgia had the Coleman green cooler as one of the finalists but ultimately went with a $100 lifetime brand cooler. And after three days of camping this week, the beer was still ice cold.
So I’m sad that there’s not a camping brand that I’ll be passing down to the next generation. There are many great brands out there, but nostalgia has always had me love the Coleman brand. And from this day forward it will just be a fun memory.

I haven’t used this mattress yet, but I have patched many leaks in this type of mattress. Linda B complained that, being deaf, she could not hear a pin hole leak. Linda, none of us can hear a pin hole leak! That’s why we either put the mattress in a tub of water and look for bubbles, or apply a soap or detergent solution and watch for the leak to blow soap bubbles. There is a product made just for this purpose called Snoop; plumbers swear by it and say that its performance can’t be duplicated. Put a pin in the hole to mark the location while you rinse and dry the mattress; it won’t make the patch any less effective.
Another way to find a leak is to moisten your hand and hold it near a suspected leak. You may then feel the leak as a cold spot on your hand as the air blows at the moisture.
I use a general-purpose adhesive called Seal-All which you can purchase on Amazon. It sticks very well to vinyl, unlike many adhesives. No sheet vinyl patch material is needed for pinhole leaks, just the adhesive.
E6000 adhesive, also on Amazon, says that it sticks to vinyl but I haven’t tried it yet. It has the advantage that you can buy a pack of several small 5.3 mL tubes if you are an infrequent user, rather than buying a big tube which will go bad a while after being opened. You just have to decide, in your particular case, whether a big tube would be a waste because it goes bad or small tubes are wasteful because they cost more per ounce of glue.
By the way, when you use glue in a tube always wipe the threads of the tube before you replace the cap so that the cap doesn’t get glued on to the tube. This is very important and makes the unused glue remaining in the tube last much, much longer. You may want to use acetone (pure acetone nail polish remover) or another solvent to clean the threads or any spills. I’m not sure what the best solvent is to use for the 2 types of glue I mentioned, but my 2 guesses are acetone or lacquer thinner.
In the case of a large tear that you could put a finger through, you can apply a patch from the inside and it will be more durable than a patch on the outside because it won’t be fighting the air pressure, the air pressure will be pressing it towards the material. I have done this with duck tape and with Johnson & Johnson old-fashioned cloth first-aid tape, which I believe is a form of duck tape. You can apply another patch to the outside to help keep the edges of the material from snagging.
Duck tape is tape made out of cotton duck fabric. For taping ducts you need something different.
