My 3 children ages, 3, 5, & 7, all LOVE the bed. We have a "Hello Kitty", "Spider-Man", and a "Princess". They have got so much use out of them. I rated the educational value at 5 because the kids will get into the beds and listen while I read a book, instead of sleeping on the bunkbeds and watching TV. Of course 2 of them got holes in them. I went online and found the number for the company and they are sending me 2 FREE mattress'. (The covers have been washed frequently and are in perfect condition) I don't even have to pay shipping. As much as my kids have used the beds, I knew they would eventually get a hole in them. They are for SMALL CHILDREN!!!!! Kids ALWAYS have small sharp items on the floor, such as a necklace, play ring, etc., but I cannot believe I am getting the mattress for free. I do not know if I can put this on here, but I am going to try because I saw ALOT of bad reviews. (...)

I purchased this bed a couple months ago for my 3 year old son. It finally developed a small pin hole in the mattress. I contacted readybed today and they are sending a replacement free of charge. They said it may take up to 2 months to receive my replacement because they are on backorder. Was a little disappointed about that...but was impressed with the customer service dept. THey returned my call with-in five minutes of leaving a message and were very polite and helpful. I have washed the sleeping bag part, turned inside out (soft side turned inside), a few times now on delicate and air dried it. It has kept it's 'newness' look and shape so far.
Would buy from this company again!

I read the review about the boy who flipped the bed, and yes it is concerning. I must say, however, that I personally would not let my 3 year old sleep on anything inflatable without some sort of supervision. I mainly bought this bed to use camping and when visiting my parents who live out of town. Under both circumstances, he will be sleeping right next to the airbed his father and I use. Right now, he occassionally uses it at night to lay and watch a video before bed. My son ADORES his Ready Bed, and I am thrilled that Santa brought it for him. We use the electric pump that came with our other airbed and it's up in less than 30 seconds. The one-way valve is absolutly incredible as you aren't fumbling with the cap before all the air escapes... you can take your time and ALL of the air stays in! I'm in awe and wonder why ALL airbeds don't come with this feature!?! The oversized carry case allows you to easily put the bed back in it. Deflating is almost as easy as inflating. We just push the one way valve and roll it like a sleeping bed and in about a minute VOILA! the air is out. Obviously to each their own, but I feel under the circumstances for which it will be used, this item is still a Godsend for us... MY only complaint would be that we looked EVERYWHERE for the Spiderman bed only to find it wasn't yet available in the U.S., so we had to settle for Bob the Builder.

My son had just turned 4, and I got him this Spiderman ReadyBed for a Christmas present. He loves to inflate it to lay around in our living room - and sometimes in his room - to watch TV. The amazing thing is that after he helped me put it up a couple of times, he now gets it out of his closet, sets it up, and blows it up all by himself! I am giving this a 5 for the educational value, because it certainly required some hand-eye coordination and some strength and logistics to put it up all by himself, and he feels like such a big boy! We haven't had it under strenuous conditions yet to see how puncture-resistant it is, but he has fallen asleep in it and it DID turn over with him.Of course he's big enough for it not to hurt him, and a kid on anything inflatable should be supervised anyway. Overall, I highly recommend it for kids about 3&1/2 on up and at least 35 pounds or so. Smaller than that would enjoy it as well, but I'd recommend that they were constantly monitored with it(I don't think it would hurt them, but scare them). I like that the cover comes off and the whole thing is washable, and the part that's next to your child is very soft and cozy. I'm now planning to buy one for my 5 year old niece for trips to her grandma's and sleepovers at her friend's houses.
My ONLY complaint is that even though it has ended up being worth the monay, I was initially hesitant about spending that much on it (you can catch twin-sized inflatable mattresses on sale at WalMart for less than $15). If the manufacturer would lower the price to $20 or less, I can almost promise them that they would sell enough to make up the difference. That said, it is still a great product, just a little too expensive to give one to every kid you know.

UPDATE: I now lower it to a 2 1/2 stars. It is now July of 2006 and it has finally started to leak air. It is a slow leak, so I assume that it has a small hole in it or something. But I think that it still was worth the price considering it lasted for a while. However, it was not used often, so decide for yourself...

This has to be the best item of bedding that I have purchased for my 6 year old son. We can't leave home without it! Great for sleep-overs at home or away. The built-in pillow is a great feature as well. My son now has a new tag-a-long that we don't mind packing.
Thanks so much for this wonderful product!
Could you make one for me?

My grandsons' ages 3,4,& 5 adore their ready bed...I bought one for my house when one come to sleep over, which was a BIG mistake. I had to buy two more so they each had one. They watch movies laying on them and we are taking them on our family vacation to yellowstone this summer...Best thing for getting kids to bed. They love them. Never had a problem with them flipping over, but I am always sleeping in the same room with them. Great idea, and my older grandkids ( 9&10) wished they had them for their age..

I have read the reviews one the ready bed, before I purchased one. I think it is a great item!!!! My 3 year old loves it. I'm going to purchase one for my 8 Year old also.

I do not understand why one women put that her 4 Year old could have died because of this bed flipping on him, it is so light that my 3 year old daughter can move it around and pick it up. I do not think that a child could really smoother to death!!! (...)

My son loves to sleep in this bed, but it seems to mysteriously deflate occasionally, even after having it only a few days. We just pump it back up, but it makes me wonder if it is sturdy enough for constant use.

My mother purchased two of these bags for my boys, 2 and 7. I can't tell you how much they love them. There warm, comfortable, blow up in 15 seconds and deflate just as fast when you open the release caps preasure seal. The boys jump on them. My oldest has been sleeping on it almost every night, just because it's really that comfortable. Deflate it and stick in the bag with pump and store away in seconds. You've got to have it!!!

My 5 year old grandson got the Spiderman Readybed for Christmas. It is now March and the bed will NOT stay inflated. There seems to be something wrong with the inside of the vavle because there is no hole in the bed itself. My grandson is very disappointed so I bought a chaise pad that fits perfectly into the cover and now he is happy. I'm not because I had to spend the extra money on something that should have lasted longer that 3 months.
