Now showing at your neighborhood bedding or sporting goods or department store, the wonderful, inflating, deflating all in one, air mattress pump, electric, no muscle power needed.
Remember the old foot pump where your ankle wore out before the inflatable was even half way inflated? Or the hand crank that showed whether your muscles were real?
What Can Air Mattress Pump Do For You?
Blowing up air mattress is no longer a grueling task. Air mattress pump comes in small, hand carry types to the larger, one-minute blow up kind. Blow up a full, bed size mattress in less than two minutes. Amazing.
And for deflating? I remember a camping trip where I spent literally four hours trying to use a toothpick in the deflating hole (supposed to auto deflate), to deflate an air mattress so I could get it flat enough to fit back into the storage box.
The new air mattress pump that is portable and rechargeable is great for going camping. I can have my bedding inflated for sleeping and deflated and put away in minutes.
When I had my house for sale I don’t know what I would have done without my air mattress pump. Every night I would blow up my bed size mattress and every morning I would deflate it and put it away since our realtor wanted the house empty for showing.
The air mattress pump is not only efficient but it is well built. I didn’t sell my house for almost one year. That was one year of inflating and deflating and the pump never gave up.
For the larger job of inflating an air mattress bed there is no doubt the air mattress pump is the only way to go. As said, there are all kinds and varieties of the air pumps available but it is the larger air pumps that are needed to adequately inflate and deflate bed size mattresses.
Air Mattress Pump Features
Some of the newer air mattresses with heavier covers may have a air pump built in which is great but if you go for a less expensive air mattress you can still find an air mattress pump that can save you lots of time.
There is a simple, plug in, hand held unit air mattress pump that is easy to use and works very effectively on smaller items, like the well known plastic camping mattresses.
Another good feature in the new air mattress pump is that it will not allow the pump to exceed the mattress limitations. In the past I have blown up, as in the sense of a big noise blow up because I left the pump and it overfilled the item. Most of the modern, air mattress pump won’t allow that to happen so make sure to look for that feature.
I think back to the days when I either huffed and puffed or passed out trying to inflate air mattresses and I am so thankful that technology has now provided us with an extremely, convenient alternative with the electric, air mattress pump.
