Video Transcript for AirBedz Truck Bed Air Mattress with Rechargeable Battery Pump Review

Today we're going to be taking a look at the Airbedz Truck Bed Air Mattress. It's available to fit your five foot to five and a half foot bed, and your five and half foot to 5.8 foot bed in either blue or camouflage. See etrailer.com for your specific fit and color.When it comes to camping, one of the biggest mistakes is not bringing the right sleeping gear. The Airbedz Air Mattress is your simple solution. It's a great alternative to sleeping in a sleeping bag on the ground in a tent. It's gonna work with your compact short-bed trucks.

It's designed to fit over and around the contours of your wheel well, taking advantage of the entire truck bed.It's going to be a great addition to your truck if you have a campers shell or a truck bed tent. Note that if you have a tunnel cover it will work, but you will have limited space. Since our truck does have that short bed, Airbedz includes this extension over the tailgate making up for that length. Providing us with more comfort and more leg room. It just connects with two anchor points here and here at the main mattress.

It is recommended when connecting and disconnecting that you have it deflated.What sets this air mattress apart from other air mattresses is its on board electric pump. It allows you to inflate and deflate on the fly. It operates on an included rechargeable battery. Everything is located here at the rear for easy access. The charger is included.

If you do however forget the charger battery, there is a separate valve to put air into and the pump is included. Now the nice thing about the pump is, it's double action. So as you draw it out it pushes air, and as you push it in it pushes air. So you can pump it up twice as fast.This is also a good time to mention that the tailgate extension has to be pumped up separately than the main mattress. It does not have an on board electric pump.

So you can either use the hand pump or a separate electric pump, which is sold separately.Another great feature is its integrated air quill system. This allows it to simulate a spring mattress rather than an air filled one. Even redistributing the weight between two people. Here we have a cut away of one of the Airbedz, you can see the integrated air quills here. What these are going to do is help compress that air pressure when it's filled with air. And when you're on it with your weight, it won't shift it all to one side.The whole thing is made out of a heavy duty, polyester, puncture resistant fabric. This isn't some cheap plastic pool toy construction. This is going to hold up for a long time. When comparing this to a regular air mattress, you can see how the Airbedz air mattress gives you more coverage. We've got about eight to ten inches on each side and at the back. On a plus side to having a smaller mattress, it does fit right between our wheel well, giving us four pockets to store our boots or any other gear we might have with us.In my opinion, I still would like the Airbedz because I could always put those boots or any other gear in my truck. Now if you'd like to use your Airbedz mattress in a standard tent or at home, you could pick up these wheel well inserts. Sold separately. They simply connect with hook in and fasteners, converting it into a regular ait mattress, giving you the support you need.When you're all done the mattress deflates quickly. You simply turn it to the deflate option and let it go. You will however have to deflate your tailgate extension manually. Then we can turn it off and fold it. When it's all folded, we can take our included bag and bag it up. The nice thing about this bag it is has an extra long zipper, we can literally just take the bag, put it over our mattress, flip it over, and zip it up.When you're ready to set up, just unfold it in your truck bed. Then we can turn our knob to the inflate option. Now the nice thing about this electric pump is, it won't over inflate our air mattress. It will automatically stop being air in, we will still have to shut it off.For the tailgate extension, you will want to make sure to anchor it fit. It makes it way easier. We'll fit it in and then lock it into position. You'll want to do this for both sides. Now we can air it up. Plug it into the valve. Once you've got it inflated, you can then disconnect, plug it up, and then push it in. And we're all set.And that's going to complete our look at the Airbedz Air Bed Truck Mattress.
