Zaltana Single Size Air Mattress (Size:73"x29"x7.5")

I was a little concerned about this mattress based on some of the reviews, but, I decided to take a chance and I am really glad I did. We recently took a road trip from Texas to Florida in a Prius V and decided we would make the drive without stopping at a hotel by placing this mattress in the back and switching out. Because we were in a smaller vehicle we didn't want a full twin mattress. This is NOT A TWIN, this is a single mattress - about the size of a sleeping bag - and it was perfect in the car. We put the back seats down and it fit right in, only taking up half the space so we still had plenty of room for luggage. We have an electric pump (this does not come with a pump) and we blew the mattress up before we left and it stayed in the car, inflated, for a week. We each took turns sleeping on the mattress and driving, so, the mattress was used pretty much for over 20 hours straight there and 20 hours coming back. The most amazing thing: we NEVER had to add air to the mattress (and we are not small people)! The price for this is great and I am going to order a second. The top is textured so the sheets don't move around (and they didn't) and it really was comfortable. I ended up getting the flu toward the end of our trip and this mattress was a life saver since I spent most of the return trip laying on it.

Excellent

Arrived ahead of time and this is by far the best air mattres ive ever had for such a low price does not deflate just to prove this i left it blown up for a week straight even layed on it abunch, kinda stiff tho but let out some air and it was perfect i have a bad back so it was a surprising upgrade from my last one, took my 3 min by mouth to air it up a pump is not really neccasary butt very easily done by mouth didnt even get light headed you cant beat the quality or the price on this one, its quick easy and very comfortable also i can store it folded up in any small place so thats great when you are looking to maximize space.

The size of this air mattress is great, it's perfect for car camping. Unfortunately, size is the only thing they got right here. I've had this mattress for about a month and half and it was very comfortable when it held air. Problem is this thing started completely deflating after about a month of use ( too late to return), so now I'm out the cash for a return. The old adage "you get what you pay for" has never been more true with regard to this item. My recommendation is to go with a 4-6" shikibuton, especially if you're a side sleeper like me looking for lower back relief.

The price on this bed was good but it did have a few things I did not like after a weekend of sleeping on it. Right out of the box I had to hit it with the pump every night before bed. It was no major loss but it still annoyed me and probably others at 1 a.m. The bigger issue for me was that this thing is much thinner than any other single person air bed I have owned. I am not saying the description is wrong, I am just saying 29" inches is shockingly narrow; I am not a big guy either. I was fine if I was in the middle, but the second I rolled to one side it almost flipped me in the floor. If you go off of center very much the other side of the bed will come up in the air. As long as I rolled, but also scooted back to center, I was fine. However I never got used to being awoke by the feeling that I am about to be dumped in the floor. It was worth the money, did its job, and I would probably buy it again, but just something to think about. Needs to be wider.

I really like this air mattress. It has a soft velvety side to have closer to you and a smooth durable plastic opposite side. It is a extra large sleeping bag size. I planned to use it on a rough surface and was concerned it would get a hole in it I was able to put it inside an old extra large sleeping bag and fully inflate it. This also made it warmer to sleep on. I used it for camping and in the back of my Mazda CX7 SUV when the weather turned really bad. It fit perfectly front to back with the back seat laid down and still had room to though in my other gear to keep it out of the rain. It needs to be inflated so I purchased a car charger powered air pump separately to go with it. It was easy to fill and to plug. It stayed firm for several days of camping.

YES! This is just what I have been looking for. We travel a lot and I can not sleep on a hard bed, so I bring along an air mattress. In the past I have only been able to find a twin sized one which is great for a King sized bed. But we are going on a cruise and it is only a queen size. The twin size would mean that my partner would only have 10 inches of bed. This is perfect. I tried a pool float, once, but it was very slow to inflate and deflate, plus it kept springing leaks. I haven't tried it yet, but the cruise is in 2 days. I will report back if it is a disaster.

Perhaps I just made a bad choice for an adult. I realized that the mattress was approximately 10" narrower than a twin mattress and not quite as high when inflated. That said, the mattress did not hold the air when inflated and by morning would not even stand up. The adult who slept on it found pressure points on the ground rather than supported. Willing to consider that we had not secured the air intake hole, we refilled it and checked carefully to make sure there was not air escaping. Again, by morning the mattress was almost totally limp and the pressure points were on feeling the ground beneath. We will give it a try for one of the kids, but for use for an adult a mattress that is wider and higher when inflated is the key to comfort. As far as the air escaping during the night I can only assume that the weight of an adult (150 lbs) is too heavy for the mattress.

By the time I bought this air mattress (for Cdn $42, just before Covid) we'd gone through half a dozen bigger and better air beds. With no expectations of anything great, we bought this Zaltana Single as a just-in-case spare. Now, two years later, we haven't used it much; but indeed it is so (relatively) small and unassuming that we are glad we have it--and now we are buying a second one. This time it costs $45. First to mention, I'm 75 years old and I can pretty easily blow this air mattress up just by huffing and puffing it as I would blow up a balloon. I noticed a few questions about "ease of inflation". If you are a third of my age and you are a smoker, maybe you might find this airbed a worthwhile purchase just so you can think about what your lungs can and can't do. Second, this mattress will likely lose air; but not badly if you just want a place to sleep. <<sigh>> With 2 exactly the same, we intend having the autonomy of where you sleep, plus a nice side-by-side possibility. The single mattress is decidedly a SINGLE mattress, and if a second person is sleeping beside you but on the floor, say, you'll find yourselves comparing sleep-comfort as well as the floor seeming a long way down. Even though the inflated mattress is just 6 inches high, the person sleeping parallel but on the floor certainly seems unfortunate. As we tend to sleep for several hours and both wake up in the middle of the night, we've been trading floor/mattress positions then. With two air mattresses, we can both enjoy the selfish advantage of the airbed. These Zaltanae have a fuzzy side, as well, which makes for a cozier night's sleep. I'm talking about living room basic just-in-case use. For camping, I think this mattress would barely serve; but then, it does have the advantage of being inflatable without any gadgets at all, if your lungs are in good health. Oh, one thing more: once the airbed is inflated, try very hard not to step on it. (In the darkness, a flashlight might help you step OVER it but not ONTO it.) You want to spread your weight as evenly as you can, preferably kind of oozing your whole body in lying-down position as you stretch out onto the air mattress. Good night; and have a nice sleep.

Went down twice overnight first time I used it. Seems that the valve does not close properly unless you press it in really really strongly.

Just a standard basic air mattress, very small in size, and not much padding. Need pump to inflate. Good for small children or for camping

The first time I used it, it deflated a little, which was to be expected, though it did last a few days. The second time I used it it deflated after a few hours... no punctures, just lost air. It was also a pain to inflate as the one way valve allowed the air to flow out once the pump was removed, meaning I never did get it full. Was also a.couple inches shorter and more narrow than it was suppose to be.

I wanted something as small as possible and this one with only 27" wide and 71" long and thin is perfect. But at the same time, it is both wide enough and thick enough to give you a very comfortable night sleep anywhere. Also, because it is so small, it is very easy to pump it. It takes nearly half the typical air volume to get it ready. And then also the price is excellent. The price is so affordable that even if by mistake you damage it, it is not worth the time and effort to repair it. I'll just buy a new one! Update: I tested it and loved it so much I ordered a second one together with an Intex Double Quick III S Hand Pump, 14 1/2 in for just $9.21. Great combination.
