It can lay on it side be upright it does not matter it work very well, but on the downside it does not have a auto off, you have to unplug it when it done

As long as the water intake is submerged it works. No it does not have auto off.

It can be on its side-keeping it upright would be tough ayway. It does not have an auto off- one of the few negatives.

Hi Ronald, no it doesn't have to be upright. No it doesn't have an auto shut off, just check on it, or sit and wait because this pump doesn't waste any time getting the water out, ha ha... I love mine! I hope this helps. :)

It can operate in any orientation, but it drain the water to a lower level when on one of its 3 sides. There is no auto off, but I have inadvertently let it run dry on several occasions without any problem, so why pay more for auto off? It has already lasted at least as long as models costing twice as much.

The idea is to put the coned "cage" under the collected water. It can be upright, but it will leave several inches of water if it is not on its side, or lying with the cone facing down. Just remember to do ALL moving of the pump using the hose, and NOT the electrical cord. Lastly, NEVER touch the water when the pump is plugged in.

It can lay on its side and works just fine, but does not have auto-off. If its plugged in, its on.

My husband says he throws it in any way, does not matter, but does not have an auto off.

You have to leave it on but the sound of the maintenance is far below the inflation.Only problem I found was the mattress tended to over inflate and loose that nice shape they have in all the pictures.I am somewhat heavier than a lot of people and mine also tore around one of the dimples.

It has 2 settings (you just click a lever in the back). One is upright and the other is a laying down/flat position.

The instructions say that that is what the "Auto" on position is for but a little further down the page they also recommend turning the unit off when it is left unattended. I personally always put the unit in the off position, to avoid possible issue incase a real idiot bends over it wearing a neck tie and accidentally activates it, or spills liquid into it and sparks an electrical fire in a bin filled with finely shredded paper and paper dust. Odds of it happening, very unlikely, but have you ever read the Darwin Awards?

I sleep on my side and my stomach. It is firm enough but not hard for stomach sleeping. I find it comfortable. You want to make sure you let it air out before sleeping on it. We let it air out for 4 days before putting it in the bedroom, otherwise there is an odor from the mattress.

I haven't used it lying down but have used it in low chairs. If you were to put it up against something so it wouldn't slide away from you, you could probably use it lying down. When I use a low chair it slides away from me as I pedal, so I have to secure it against something. Pedaling it in a high chair works best for me.

It has a leg to support it in a oblique position, the leg can be fold inside it when not working. I think this is what it means. BTW, there is no temperature control, only one power level. Though you can control how much time to auto stop it.

It does not have a off position, but I have never had it to come on with it all the way down. Allen

I use the regular bbq tank and it sits upright. Super easy to light and turn off. I love it!

I have always left it upright. Should be a sealed system and can be stored lying down, but I would not.

I prefer my bed firm, so I leave it on all the time. It can be inflated to the comfort you desire, and the pump left off, but you will have to periodically turn it back on to inflate back to your comfort level.

There's just two settings: on & off. There's no auto off, either. I work in a SUPER cold building, and I just keep this on my lap and put my hands in the little pocket whenever they get cold. It's effective for such a little thing.

Yes is does lay flat. I have slept on. It before but it is very narrow. Approx body width.

Yes, it lays flat. As you pull up, it clicks (locks) into the next setting. I use mine at the lowest setting, about 10 percent grade. I think it clicks up to 40-45 degrees, then it releases back down to zero.

no control, you do it manually but it has great settings if you want to go to sleep with it on it's okay to do so because it has a timer. Also, if it tips over it turns off on it's own

It sets upright. If you try to use it while in this position, the phone may fall.
