Inflate with manual pump? Can this bed be attached to a manual pump if the pump motor on this bed ever breaks?

There is no provision for an external/manual pump as far as I can tell. It'll probably take some serious DIY mod job to attach one to this bed.

Yes, you can use this valve for the manual pump. However, I recommend you to buy the Double Electric Comfort Breast Pump. It could help you to save time and your strength. It worths money

Yes, but not this version. Look for the "Wenzel Stow 'n Go Twin Airbed with Integrated Pump." In my opinion though, the built-in manual pump for this mattress works great, and you don't need to worry about batteries.

We've used it a few times - plug it in and it inflates then holds that pressure - very easy and surprisingly comfortable and as solid as a regular bed. Just got to be plugged in.

I haven't done it, but I am pretty confident you can use an air mattress pump or something similar. However they are really easy to blow up, easier than it looks, not a lot of air. They are a great buy, super cheap fun!

No, just open the valves and it self inflates due the enclosed open cell foam. Simply close the valves prior to sleeping on it.

Hi! To answer your question: Unfortunately there isn't an option to inflate the matteress with a battery pump. This would have made this matteress even more of an excellent purchase. It doesn't take long at all to manually inflate the mattress. Less than 5 minutes. I hope this helps.

I am still using the manual pump so I can't honestly answer it. Just inflate to the 15 psi and you will be happy.

Yes, and this is better.you get a coleman pump. Do not buy a mattresswith pu p attached. Ifit breaks, oh oh. And this mattress is excellent.1st time you should just blow up, so next time when you need it it fills better.

Yes ours came with a pump that inflates and deflates the mattress. We LOVE our Airbed for camping and company!

It does require electricity to turn on the pump. There is no option to inflate it manually. If you have a car ac inverter you can plug the bed into the outlet. All you need is an extension cord. It blows up in just under two mins.

Yes - If you plug the pump into your car or standard outlet, you can immediately inflate your bed. It will draw power from your car battery or household electricity.

Hi I bought mine just before a camping trip --It inflates with the separate air blower that takes 4 D size battery's --I had one that had the pump built in and it would go soft halfway through the nite --Enjoy ---Rog

the pump is built in to the bed. you have to use your foot to pump it up. However, I used a different electrical pump that was much faster.

There might be a way to do this but it would be difficult since the electric one is built in. It would require disassembly of the built in unit. If to be used where no electric outlet available such as camping its better to get a manually inflatable mattress.

Nope - no pump. That was an extra 30 bucks - picked up a Coleman 120v. This is seriously a great bed though. The intex pump would have been crap anyway.

We used an air compressor also. It is a pretty big float for a manual pump but one would work. as said by others, your pump would need a pointed end. This is our second season and just filled a couple days ago. Great for keeping you above water while it's still a little brisk.
