is it possible to inflate it too and will it cause damage ?

It does not inflate and it does not fit very well. I was very disappointed.

No, It doesn't inflate. I put it on before the airbed is fully inflated and it fits very well. It won't hurt the mattress.

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.

When you unroll it, it inflates. You have to do this a couple of times before it fully inflates.

I have never done that, I don't see why you couldn't. The way mine is being used is for pressure relief on parts of the body, consequently I use the inflation/deflation alternation. You have to actively deflate it for storage, so it should maintain a static firmness for all over for firm support without the pump action. Hope this helps!

This balloon has the typical hole for inflation that one finds on a helium balloon,so I think it could be inflated with an air pump.( Just tried another balloon, and I could inflate with an air pump)

You can but it is not You can but the nozzle for where you inflate is not the same.

There is a valve on the one side. You should be able to re-inflat with a needle - like one used to reinflate a basketball. Go to your local sporting goods store and they should be able to help you.

I'm not sure but I would think you could put a weight or coin in the deflated balloon first then inflate it.

Yes. It comes mildly deflated and you can just turn it in the box to find the inflation point if giving it as a gift. Do note that over time it will gradually lose inflation again, and you just re-inflate it. I have found a that a slight lack of air pressure, decreased the amount of impact damage 2 small kids can do with it indoors. That said, from a replica point of view, it is mildly annoying that it will not hold it's inflation pressure well over time.

I believe so.My daughter was just here this weekend using it and she stopped inflating it to test the firmness and then restarted it.You can make it firmer than the default as well.

I don't see why not. I was surprised at how little air it took to inflate. My beach ball used more air.

I also wanted to add that if you plan to blow it up without a pump it can be a pain. I kept it blown up, but if you don't plan to then I would get a cheap pump so it's easier to deflate/inflate.Also, the temp reading is not accurate so I wouldn't go by that which again to me is not a big deal.

Yes, however have you thought about how your planning on blowing it up? It may be difficult to bring back with even deflated

Does inflate itself without you having to blow it up with your mouth? I see both comments below?

Yes it can, we have the auto pump that goes with it. It will inflate and can be slept on, but by morning it is deflated not fully but some.

With care it could be used without damage but for an inflatable I would try a mushroom shaped anchor that has all smooth edges.

No, not at all, and it deflated easily too. You just plug the pump in and inflate until your desired firmness.

I haven't tried to inflate it manually with an air pump. There is a hole where the air exits when being deflated, and I can't tell if anything is inside that can potentially block air from entering. The attached 2 prong power cord is about 6 ft. in length and it does state on its warning label for "indoor use only." I hope that helps.
