Hi all

I have recently  bought two single coleman comfort camping airbeds.

they came with two little red plug things by the air plug.

what are they and are they important?

Thanks

Hi

We just bought a double Coleman.  It's fab.  Have you tried yours yet?  According to the instructions you can discard the red plugs as they are for shipping purposes. 

hooraah ( i lost themanyway!!!)

i havent tried them as they are for the kids but they didnt go down after 3 days, so they are good in my book!!

We just bought a ColemanDouble and used it for 5 days it even withstood the kids bouncing and fighting on it and it didn't go down at all. Everyone elses needed blowing up again every night. Result! 

Yep, you just bin the red bits, they are just for transit.

One question; our old Coleman Comfort has yellow valves, yet a new one we have recently bought from ebay has all black valves. Have they changed them, or have we been sold a duffer?

Coleman don't use Boston valves.

Whether tha valve is Black, yellow or red matters not - it's the patented double lock airtight system that stops any air escaping.

i bought 2 single recently one has a yellow valve and the other a black valve

Presume we can conclude they now do black and yellow valves, then?

Thank goodness for that; for a moment there I had visions of Coleman Comfort airbed forgeries flooding the market!
