There are many benefits to owning an air bed. Most people think they are for use only when camping or if you have an extra guest over for the night. While this is the typical use of them, there are some who prefer to sleep every night on an air bed. Before you call them crazy, let's look into why this might actually be a viable method for some people to catch their nightly Z's.
First of all, I know of no other bed which can be so adjustable to your exact comfort needs as an air bed. At least at this price range you won't find one. Yes, you can spend thousands of dollars on a Sealy Posturepedic or another type of mattress you see on late-night infomercials. I can't deny this but you can't deny that that is a costly way to go. It's nice to dream about but we all can't afford that expensive of a mattress.

The fact is that an air bed can be blown up or deflated to the exact specifications that you have. If you want a very firm sleep, you can inflate it all the way so that it's like sleeping on wooden boards. Or if you like to sink down into your mattress you can just simply not blow it up all the way.
Can you do that with a regular mattress? No, I don't think so. However it comes from the manufacturer is how you're supposed to live with it. I've never quite understood how we're expected to get a good feel for a mattress just by lying on it in a crowded and busy mall. Half the time people find out that they've made the wrong decision only after they've brought it home and slept on it for a full night. This can be quite a costly and uncomfortable mistake.
While I believe that air beds are still most appropriate for occasional use, I definitely feel that for some they are the best daily mattress. Is this you? I don't know. Just ask yourself if you have enjoyed the nights' sleep you have gotten on an air bed in the past. If the answer is yes then this may be the best choice for your main bed. If it doesn't work out, well at least you haven't spent an arm and a leg finding that out. Plus, you can just recycle it into an occasionally used item.
