Does anyone know where I can buy a double camp bed? Have been away this weekend and had an airbed deflate on me due to a hole! I would like a doub camp bed as this sounds 'safer'. Any ideas?
"anywhere" bed From £89.00 The anywhere bed - real divan comfort in minutes! Complete with electric pump for effortless inflating plus the double has a portable wheel bag and the single features a carry bag with shoulder strap so it's ideal for guests or camping! 3ft height 60cms, width 91cms, length 190cms (storage bag h 95, w 28, d 18.5cms). 4ft 6ins height 71cms, width 137cms, length 190cms (storage bag h 76, w 32, d 32cms).
Wow, wish I'd seen this sooner. We've always shared a bed but after the struggle last time with our airbed we've gone for two single campbeds - unfortunatley this now means we can't share a sleeping bag.
This looks like the height of luxury - although not very cheap!
Cosco do a double airbed that you plug in the mains switch a button and inflates in seconds, and if you want more air in it during the night just press the button again, deflates itself too. Great if youu have electric
Great price £25.00 ish in CAMP SHOPS THEY ARE £40/50.00
That bed looks lovely and comfy suzy ,It just dont look very big ,I fear by the time i shuffled my bottom out to a comfortable position there would be no room for hubby !!ah well he could always have the airbed!

We have two campbeds and we put a single airbeds on top of each bed, push them together, use an open sleeping bag to lie on (spread across both mattresses) then cover ourselves with a duvet.
The campbeds don't move (they are the aluminium ones) and we are nice and cosy. Lots of storage under the beds as well.
Those 'anywhere' beds are very comfortable and inflate very quickly, but beware of the height - 71cm for the double. We have used them as a spare bed in a house, but you would need a lot of head room in a large tent in order to fit these in.

Thanks for all replies.
Can I just ask B Chrystie - do the anywhere beds go down overnight like most airbeds?
Are they 'proper' size single and double?
Are they very heavy?
Are they very large when packed up?
Thanks for your help

If you look at the measurements next to the picture, yes, they are "proper" single/double sized. Also, the measurements of the storage bags are given, so I'm assuming that that includes the contents! (as opposed to being an empty bag folded up)

I think a top-up every 3 or 4 nights was all that was needed.
Are they 'proper' size single and double?
Can't say for the Littlewoods one, as the one we tried was in America - their queen-size, which is equivalent to our king-size!
Are they very heavy?

Answer to both questions: Don't know how heavy, although I think the dimensions are given in the specs in the advert. It comes in a large rectangular bag on rollers (so weight is not so much of an issue), so you can transport it like one of those large roll-along hold-alls with an extending handle. The size and weight are due to the very sturdy legs - the operation is similar to the current generation of folding chairs, but multiplied several times over. They unfold in seconds, and you just squeeze them back together again to pack them up.
do airbeds go down overnight we have never had ours go down in over twenty +years it is made by semprit it is a rubberised cotton typ , www.ukcampsite.co.uk/redirect.asp?redir=http://www.towsure.com do a double redibed classed as a large single or a small double £59.99

your just jealous of the little voices talking to me
Thanks for all replies. We were discussing airbeds at work last week, and saying how the new 'luxury flock' airbeds do not stay up as they should. We also commented on how 'in the old days' the rubberised cotton airbeds never let us down. I wonder if they will ever make a full height rubberised airbed?
I have just bought the coleman airbed that has 2 sections 2 it. This stops the seasick feeling when one of you gets out of bed. It stayed full of air for a full 10 days too without the need for repumping. Its the most comfortable sleep I have ever had whilst camping.
Befor you by this bed check out the size of your tent bedrooms you might find they're a tight fit. most 2 person sleeping pods are only the size of a double airbed.
Just had a single and a double anywhere bed delivered. Put up single which looked like picture (above) from side, but underneath only had 2 straps which crossed over in the middle. Daughter said "not sleeping on that, I wouldn't trust it". Airbed was of poor quality, and when inflated, matress did not look 'full' like in picture. They are very expensive at £59.99 for single and £99.99 for double! In my view not worth the money.
SO - how do I put camp beds under my airbed to get us up off the floor? What type of campbeds do I need. I already have 3 cheapie Argos camp beds (£7.99), would they do, or do I need the new ones which look like the anywhere bed underneath?
Thanks for sharing that Jackie, I've never seen one of these beds close up, so it's interesting to hear what you thought of them.
I've never tried putting an airbed on top of a camp bed either, but as long as the airbed is well supported by the camp bed, I don't see that it would matter what type you use....
