Air Loss Mattress

Loss of air in an Air Mattress…no holes!
I have had this issue with every air mattress we have used camping. You inflate it and come morning, your sinking down almost to the ground. People say it is because the once hot air cools and condenses inside the mattress. There are no holes in the mattress. How do you suggest keeping the mattress firm all night?
Lol…I’m with you on that one! It’s stretch…it has nothing to do with hot air at all. The plastics used to make the mattress will stretch when you lie on it when it’s fully inflated, thus creating more volume and making your arse touch the ground. When you deflate the mattress the plastics will “shrink” back to their original form, so to speak. Unless your using your mattress for more that 2 or 3 days consecutively, you’ll always have this problem. I always like to inflate the heck out of mine initially so that when it stretches it’ll still be somewhat firm.
