Large enough to easily accommodate two adults (or four small children), this queen-size Quickbed gets its name from Double-Lock valves that allow it to inflate 10 times quicker than air beds with pinch valves. And if you think inflating time is quick, when morning rolls around you’ll find that, thanks to the Double-Lock valves, the air beds deflate 20 times faster as well. Keep one of these queen-size flocked air beds around for camping trips, unexpected guests, or kids’ slumber parties (the mattress will accommodate fitted or flat queen-size sheets). The heavy-duty PVC construction is designed to endure all sorts of abuse, but if anything should happen, a repair kit is included. The green-flocked rayon top can be a little prone to dust, but it does add warmth and softness for colder nights. The air bed can hold up to 600 pounds. Its 56 coils and 6-inch side gussets provide support and, unless you sit down from a height, keep you from bumping the ground. Pump sold separately. One-year limited warranty. –Ariel Meadow Stallings
Product Description
The Coleman Queen-Sized Quickbed is a great choice for camping, overnight guests, or anywhere you need an extra bed. Measuring 78″ long by 60″ wide when inflated (fitting standard queen-sized sheets), the Quickbed is made of heavy-duty, puncture-resistant PVC, with 48 coils inside and a soft suede top for extra comfort. The Quickbed is easy to inflate and deflate, thanks to Coleman’s extra-wide Advanced Double Lock Valve. Like all Coleman inflatable products, this Quickbed features Coleman’s Airtight System, guaranteed not to leak. And the built-in Wrap ‘N’ Roll storage system makes packing and storing quick and easy.

If you are looking for a bed you can take with you camping in the summer and to relatives homes any time of the year, this bed works fairly well for short term use and is a quick and cheap solution. I find the Coleman beds last quite a long time, even though you will eventually find yourself on the floor due to the many problems that can occur with placing an airbed on the floor. For one, sharp objects will easily puncture the bed and this includes playful cats tossing about toys near the bed or like my cat loves to do, pushing a cat toy under the bed and retrieving it again.
I’ve lost two beds this way, but this can be solved by placing a thick mattress cover over the bed. Sharp objects under the carpet may also puncture the bed although this bed has an exclusive PVC and the airtight system is guaranteed not to leak. I find that we deflate this bed in the morning and inflate it again at night, so this isn’t really a problem, although after two days, you may notice air has leaked out a little bit more than you expect.
The comfortsmart coil system helps the bed to conform to your body for better support, which means you might like this bed better than a regular mattress. In my short lifetime I’ve purchased quite a few of these beds and more expensive doesn’t mean more comfortable. To be honest, this is more comfortable than the Aero beds with the pillow top.
If the bed looses air, you might want to take a look at the inflation instructions where it shows the internal seal and the internal yellow post and how you can completely seal the valve in a two-step process.
“Air temperature and weather do affect the air pressure in inflatable products. In cold weather your airbed will lose some pressure due to the fact that the air will contract.”
So, to avoid this happening, we use a heating blanket on the bed.
One thing I will say about Coleman, they stand by
their warranty. With Aero, I found it difficult
to even return a bed or to find a return address
at their site.

Bought this for friends staying the night. Bought it from Target, on sale, was ~20$ and I bought a Greatland electric airpump ~18$ (many other pumps require charging 12 hrs before use, watch out for this! Also, this pump has 3 adjustable nozzles, so it worked with Coleman bed just fine).
This bed was very comfortable and didn’t leak. It is suede-flocked, but I put an extra fowm pad on top and a mattress pad over that. It comes with an attached wrap/holder for the deflated mattress. The air intake valve is a neat design, lets you stop airflow out before removing the pump, so air doesn’t whoosh out when you’re done pumping. ((Greatland basic line beds, unlike this Coleman, have an extra mouth-nozzle because they don’t have this airstop valve. So this bed required no extra hassle with mouth-blowing extra air in because of poor engineering!)
I made a brief foray into air mattress quality websites and reviews before buying this, and realized that high quality and height and auto-deflate etc only really mattered if I was going to sleep on this bed all the time. (I’m not, but these are things to consider if you are!!) Just from previous camping/overnight general use, I’ve found that the biggest difference in comfort is in having something warm on top of the mattress (thick mattress pad or foam layer underneath), so I did that and the sleepers said it was great.
Not sure how long it will last, but at ~20$ it was cheap and did it’s job nicely. Plus, I got the funky brown/tan color which was fittingly retro for an airbed in the living room set-up…
