They give you a hose to attach to the air outlet and that goes to the inflation intake. Mine did not come with the adapter and I have to hold it, but it still fills up pretty quickly. This is my second season and I am having trouble with it holding air. You can use it indoors, but it holds about 250 gallons of water, so if you spring a leak you may get damage if you don't have drainage. It will also get quite humid from the hot water. With proper ventilation it may not be too bad, but you can get mold. Also, the filtration system is not great, and you will need to drain and refill often, so you need an easy way to get rid of all of that water.

It is inflated using an attachment that comes with the tub. The tub is plugged into a regular outlet and the attachment overrides the "bubbles" or jets and inflates the tub. I don't know why you couldn't use it in the basement. Enjoy.

Hm. I had a bike place inflate it last summer and it stayed pretty inflated all winter. I just squeezed the hole where the air goes in and blew into it and it filled up again.

It's not hard to inflate at all. Only one of the valves is the kind you have to pinch while you blow air in, and that portion doesn't need much air. My husband inflated the whole thing in maybe five minutes.

It inflates like a beach ball but. Definately not something you would want to blow up yourself though. I used a battery operated pump that I use for air mattresses.

I believe it just came packed in the box...it's not inflated when you get it but it comes with a device to help you inflat it which is super easy :)

It is an inflatable but a very good one. I bought two, zipped them together and my grandchildren loved them. They stood up on them, wrestled on them, ran around on them, jumped up and down and we never had to reinflate them the entire week of use. We inflated them easily with an air pump and they were easily deflated and stored back in their original boxes. A good purchase for the money and I would highly recommend them.

You can inflate & deflate easily with an electric pump. It's so large, you probably wouldn't want to store it inside. Once it's deflated it can fold up to a decent size.

It is very easy to inflate - comes with it's own air pump. It holds air well. Our daughter uses it as her every day bed.

Incredibly easy. Comes with a pump to inflate and deflate. It's a little noisy but no worse than your typical pump for something like that.

It is not inflated and comes with a pump to put air in it yourself. It is very easy to do.

It comes with everything to inflate also a patch which you WILL need. I had mine on carpet, never moved and in six months it was leaking--A LOT! Deflated completely in two days. Buy a better one.

Very quick to deflate and inflate with the internal pump. It comes with a bag to store which is not that bad and it's big so when you deflate the bed It fits in the bag easily. I bought the queen size and it feels heavy but I think thats a good thing because it feels and looks durable. It took me alone about 5 minutes or less to inflate and about just a little over that to deflate and store.

Unless you have a pump with a gauge, you just have to feel for "Firmness" when inflating. If I am not mistaken, the valves are 1-way, only allowing air to go in, then there is a dump valve to deflate.

The booster works well for me because I have unit in basement. For 40 bucks go for it.

It stays inflated. It doesn't come with a pump though so you will need that also. And don't overfill it because ours ripped at the seams and is not fixable

Separate fill ports to inflate it. I did use a air compressor. It is pretty big.

No, it's not inflated. It was pretty easy to do though once we opened the box!
