Air MattressAn air mattress is an inflatable mattress, usually made of some sort of plastic. The deflated mattress can be rolled up and carried or stored relatively easily, making air mattresses a popular choice for camping trips and for temporary bedding at home for guests. Typically they are inflated either manually (by blowing into an opening) or with a pump. Sizes are normally the same as with traditional mattresses: twin, full, queen, king, etc., and standard sheets should fit, albeit sometimes more snugly. Some individuals who relocate frequently prefer an air mattress over a traditional mattress due to its portability. See also: Camping, Lodging
