Flocked top gives a more luxurious sleeping surface. Wave beam construction eliminates uncomfortable surface bumps.
Amazon.com Product Description
The Downy twin mattress offers a unique wave beam construction for maximum comfort.
The Intex Downy twin inflatable airbed is ideal for travelers who want the comforts of a bed but the convenience of a blow-up mattress. The Down is equipped with a quality-tested, 20.8-gauge waterproof flocked top, along with 14-gauge vinyl beams and a 15-gauge bottom. The resulting surface is luxurious and durable, with a unique wave beam construction that eliminates uncomfortable surface bumps and provides a flat, uniform sleeping surface throughout the night. In addition, the Downy is remarkably easy to inflate thanks to the built-in bellows foot pump. No more rummaging through your camping gear for your faulty 15-year-old pump. And thanks to the two-in-one valve, you can also inflate the mattress with an optional electrical pump (sold separately).
Finally, the Downy is raised 8.75 inches from the floor, insulating you from the cold ground surface far better than a camping mat. The Downy--which is ideal for camping or as a spare bed--offers a 300-pound capacity and carries a 90-day warranty.

This product held up well for a 250 lb camper. It's not very heavy and doesn't take up much space. Inflating with the manual pump is a bit cumbersome. However, sleeping on this mattress was MUCH more comfortable than the pad I purchased earlier. Consider an electric pump version.

Excellent for taking on trips and for guests. The manual pump is easy to operate. Too bad the carrying bag doesn't come with it, although can't complain at this price.

The mattress is extraordinarily comfortable. Possibly better than your bed at home. The flocked top surface is good at preventing your slippery nylon sleeping bag from oozing off the edge as you sleep.
The large "Boston" valve is great for fast inflation and deflation.
Prices are all over the place, so shop around.
My family has 4 of these. The walls are pretty thick (14 mil), but I have acquired 1 or 2 small punctures over the years. Easily repaired with duct tape or the included patch material. (Make sure you bring it.)
Get a heavy nylon stuff sack, so it won't get punctured during storage or transport.
It's kind of heavy (6.5 lbs). Not a problem for car camping or in-home use.
