My wife and I own a trailer tent and we have an iar bed to go onto the matress as I think the matress alone would be too hard.  The problem is we have a regular size air bed and end up rolling together. Not a huge problem but a problem none the less.  It was highlighted to me by another camper on site that my trailer tent accomodates a King size matress / air bed if we use the seat that covers the storage.  I would like to get a king size air bed but wondered if its possible to get one in two sections so the rolling together would be eliminated?  I could get two singles but they would split and I would end up in the gap in the middle.  anyone elase have this problem in the past?

We have the Coleman comfort on top of the foam bed in our TT. It's perfect - no roll together and we can inflate each side to suit ourselves!

Complaining about rolling together...Honeymoon over then? Shame. You could always tell the wife that you have been advised on here that there is nothing that can be done about it

Have fun

Sounds like the airbed is blown up too hard.

My wife and I did have the same problem with our double air mattress.

We now use 2 singles (Camping Gaz/Coleman).

However, I place a fully unzipped XL sleeping Bag over them, then, cover with a double fitted sheet.

This bonds them together, and also acts as a thermal barrier.

Now we no longer have 'Crosstalk', so when my wife 'flumps' on her one I no longer get bounced off mine. LOL

Regards James

We used a Coleman Comfort too - in a Conway Coniston. Stopped me being woken up every time OH got out to the loo in the night.  Got sprung mattresses now so daughter uses the Coleman in the awning annexe and says it is the most comfortable airbed she has tried.

I have a double at the moment and its fine but a kind size would be nice.  Im not a snob anyways, Im happy to swim in a nearby river for a wash and brush my teeth there too but a good nights sleep is essential for me to enjoy camping I think, I have a day of aching and Im miserable if I sleep badly.  No fun for anyone around me.

They are the bees knees. Got one, used it for a whole week and never had to re-inflat once. No roll together. Wonderful. Love it.

Size-wise, it's good. It's quite a good length, longer than the cheaper airbeds I'd looked at.
