i bought these and after letting the air out and zippering it reinflates, is this normal?

It happens because it captures the air when you zip it close. Apply pressure on the pillow as you zip it close so no air gets trapped. The only thing I don't like about this is that it's noisy when I turnmy head at night. Other then that. No complaints.

Yes, the same thing happened to me. It didn't bother me, and the quality of the encasement is great, no complaints.

I don't know if that is normal but I do inflate it about it every other day.

I did not have that problem but I would definitely return them. They could have been depressurized if they were sent to you via an airplane flying at high altitude. This is definitely not normal.

Yes. The pool is divided into several different "areas", each one needs to be inflated. If it starts to loose air, you can reinflate each one again.

None whatsoever. I have had mine up several times, and they do not seem to even be fully stretched. Just make sure you do have the minimum amount of air in them.

I think you shouldn't have a problem packing them deflated. That's how they come in their initial packaging. Your weight definitely increase.

Mine have remained completely inflated since June. Perhaps there's a slow leak and maybe you can put a patch (like on a tire) on it. Other than that, I'd complain to the manufacturer. That's not supposed to happen.

Closing it may be normal at first until you've worn it in a little. However if it's springing open there might be something wrong. It should feel very plyable and should feel like it's spring loaded.

Loosen the valve and do nothing else. It will self-inflate. If you want it to be even fuller, you can blow into the opened valve. When it inflated to your liking, close the valve. To deflate, open the valve and roll it up tightly. Then close the valve to keep it deflated. I carry mine in my purse rolled up and deflated. It takes up little room this way.

Plastic breaths regardless. What I would for my bedding is to pack these bags in a box. Then seal the box well. If the plasic bags inflate, they will be confined within the box. I am putting my bedding in storage too.

yes , they do stay inflated thruogh the night with two fairly heavy people on them with no noticible air loss . after 3-4 years of use my 1st aerobed started loosing air and i replaced it with this one as i was sure it had a puncture somewhere but i did not have time to try and patch it.

I usually have to pump it up before i use it. It seems to loose air after use.

It sounds like there is/was not enough air in it. They have to be inflated to the very max.

I open the plastic and it started to "inflate". After letting it sit for two days, I flufed from the outside to the center and that was it.

My quess is that you didn't have the zipper part totally closed. Be sure to use the little white zipper aid to held close the bag and redo it. If it still leaks,you might have a small hole in your bag.

Mine is doing the same thing! I've bought these before and they have been fine. Something is up with this mattress!

I assume you are using for storage, not travel. This depends on how much air you take out and somewhat how you press on the bag as it is deflated. I deflate the most with blankets, quilts and pillows. I used the small ones for hoodies, and fluffier clothes in the drawer. I did not use for finer clothing. I think certain clothes folded will come out wrinkled. I use them when I travel and manually push out the air, if I gently fold, lay in stack, then slide in bag, roll out air, the clothes come out looking fine. I always select clothes based on wrinkle potential at purchase. I just dont iron unless absolutely necessary. I assume you are using for storage, not travel.
