Varieties of inflatable furniture, features of popular products

Rubber furniture appeared on sale relatively recently. Vinyl, from which inflatable furniture is made, refers to durable, wear-resistant and moisture-resistant materials. Products have a velor coating. They are very popular among summer residents, fishermen, owners of small and rented apartments.

Features and scope

At the end of the last century, nothing was known about rubber mattresses, sofas, armchairs and other inflatable furniture. Today it is gaining more and more popularity, and consumer demand for these products is increasing every day. The compactly folded product turns into a small bag, and when unfolded, it is a comfortable place to sleep and rest.

Familiarity with this type of product allowed us to draw the appropriate conclusions and highlight the main advantages:

• Rubber inflatable products are not expensive in comparison with frame upholstered furniture;
• Thanks to a velor covering, dirty spots and scratches do not remain on it in comparison with metal and wooden structures;
• Has a beautiful appearance;
• The material does not contain substances harmful to human health;
• It is an extra bed for guests staying overnight;
• Repeating the bends of the body, eliminates the curvature of the spine;
• Has a wide range of color schemes;
• Products are used both indoors and outdoors;
• Inflatable furniture does not require special care, just wipe it with a napkin.

In addition to the positive characteristics, there are several disadvantages:

• She does not like strong temperature extremes. Cracks may appear on the surface of the product;
• Install it only on a flat surface away from sharp corners and cutting objects (glass, branches, stones);
• Carefully use inflatable furniture in the family where pets live. To save furniture from claws and teeth, you need to purchase dense mattress covers;
• You should not use automobile pumps for inflating furniture, as this can lead to rupture of the walls of the chambers. For such furniture, there are special pumps ─ electric, rechargeable, battery powered.

The scope of inflatable products is extensive. They are used not only indoors as an additional place for sitting or sleeping, but also in nature, the sea and on the beach.

Varieties

Inflatable furniture is a seamless design that has been widely used. Consider the main types of inflatable products.

Armchair

The product is gaining more and more popularity. It, like all inflatable furniture products, is made using modern innovative technologies. This allows her to remain comfortable and durable for a long period of time. On average, the width of the chair for one person is 100-110 cm, the length is 215-218 cm, and the height is 65 cm. It easily turns into a berth for one person and can withstand a load of up to 135 kg. The color range of products is diverse. They fit perfectly into the style of the room or the exterior.

There are several types of inflatable chairs:

• Chair mattress;
• Chaise lounge chair;
• Double for reclining;
• Bag chair;
• Armchair with armrest;
• Armchair with headrest;
• Armchair with headrest.

Some types of seats have semi-rigid armrests with integrated cup holders, ballast chambers that are filled with water to make the structure heavier so that it is not blown away by gusts of wind. And there are models in which lateral air chambers are provided for stability on water. They are monolithic and prefabricated. If you disassemble a beach mattress chair, then it will turn into a sunbed.

Bed

If the air mattress has a height of over 40 cm, then this is already considered a bed. Air beds in the specialized market are presented in a separate segment. The traditional design is a mattress bed, which consists of a single chamber. Wider models consist of two or more chambers for inflation. Using the individual parts of the cameras in the transformer bed, it turns into a sofa, mattress, chair or sunbed.

The main dimensions of the width of the beds:

• Single ─ 0.6-0.9 m;
• One and a half ─ 1.0-1.2 m;
• Double ─ 1.3-1.7 m;
• King Size ─ King Size: Over 2.0m

Products have three ways of filling with air ─ this is using an external frog pump, battery and electric. They consist of a camera and a frame. They can be installed in children's rooms, as they do not contain harmful substances. Doctors recommend installing such beds for people whose spine is damaged. With an orthopedic therapeutic effect, it is able to take the form of a human body.

For a sick and unpretentious person, a bed can be bought with headrests, that is, with elevations at the head of the bed. Otherwise, it is better to buy a product with a flat berth. If there are point mounts, then it is better to refuse such a model. It is likely that it will fail quickly.

It is better to purchase rubber structures in which the fasteners are solid and longitudinal. The bed height is considered to be 80 cm. If inflatable furniture is intended for daily use, it is better to buy beds with flock, and not with a plastic coating. On it, the bedding will stick to the bed, will not slip off. Basically, they are not much different from mattresses.

Mattress

All mattresses that are designed for internal use are flocked. It resembles a velor coating. The height ranges from 25 cm to 30 cm. If you use it indoors, the coating remains for a long period. If it is used in water, the top layer is erased. For such a rest, there are special lightweight, transparent and not very durable mattresses:

1. For daily use ─ when the mattress serves as a bed for daily use, the product must be bought from high-quality and dense material. In it, the air chamber is coated with latex or polyurethane foam. He is not afraid of punctures and punching under the weight of the body;
2. Orthopedic ─ manufacturers produce mattresses with adjustable stiffness. By pressing the button, people with a problematic back can adjust the level of stiffness, which leads to the relief of pain in the back;
3. Children ─ children over 3 years old are allowed to use inflatable products for a berth;
4. Tourist ─ for camping and hiking, an air mattress will be an extra bed. It is compact, folds into a small bag or backpack;
5. Beach ─ they are light and stable, which allows you to stay on the water without turning over;
6. Self-inflating ─ mattress refers to innovative developments. It consists of two layers ─ porous polyurethane and a polyester shell. In the aligned state, the filler swells from the air when the valve is unscrewed. Using enveloping material, air intake is blocked from the outside, as a result of which the product is formed.

The wide range of inflatable products on the market makes it difficult to choose. You need to focus on the number of required beds, orthopedic properties, color and manufacturer rating.

Sofa

There are significant differences between the sofa and the bed. He has a different design of cameras (sections). For the manufacture of modern and high-quality rubber structures, polyvinyl chloride is used. Sofas are rectangular, round and other types, but dwell on more advanced and interesting models:

• A convertible sofa bed ─ it consists of two compartments that are fastened with Velcro, a zipper or buttons and can turn from a large chair with armrests into a chic sleeping place in a matter of seconds. More expensive models of convertible sofas have several camera compartments. The pump for pumping the product can be either built-in or separate. The material is odorless, resistant to stress, abrasion and tolerates transformation. Inflate the sofa-transformer to 80-90%;
• Children's sofa ─ manufacturers of children's rubber structures paint the material in different colors. They are bright and durable. Some types of inflatable children's sofas have photos of their favorite fairy-tale characters on the surface of the product. When playing on the couch it is forbidden for children to pick up sharp objects, paper clips, compasses;
• Corner sofa ─ an inflatable product has long been in great demand among residents of small rooms. More recently, round, triangular and radius rubber structures have appeared. Radius sofas are perfect for large companies, not only indoors, but also in nature.

You need to buy inflatable products from trusted manufacturers. In case of a discount offer, be careful. The product may be defective.

Additional equipment and functions

Consider the main types of pumps for inflatable products:

• Built-in ─ some inflatable products ─ beds, sofas, chairs, mattresses are sold with built-in pumps. This is a very convenient option to use. It is impossible to lose, and in case of unexpected guests, a berth appears in a matter of minutes. But the disadvantage of this design is that in the event of a pump breakdown or rupture of the material on the rubber product, the structure will have to be completely discarded;
