A new bed - in just 3 minutes

If you've landed yourself with a headache by inviting friends and family to stay without having the beds to accommodate them here's the solution.

Inflatable mattresses have come a long way and this is the ultimate in instant beds.

You simply plug the AeroBed® Premier Raised Pillowtop into an electricity socket push the button and in less than three minutes you have a full height airbed.

Its got all sorts of other features like the pillow top made from pockets of air, a control that allows you to alter the bed's firmness and the surface is 100 per cent cotton so no tacky plastic. And because it self-inflates in three minutes and deflates in just one, it can be easily stored away in its compact carry bag when not in use.

Raised

Like permanent beds it comes in single, double and king size, which also means your standard bed linen, is going to fit and it has a five-year guarantee. There's also an AeroBed for kids with raised sides to stop them falling out and a wipe-clean surface.

Prices range from £79.99 for the single bed available in Argos up to £199.99 for the king-size full height bed in Furniture Village. The AeroBed for Children is also available at £69 in various stores.
