Ozark Trail Air Mattress

Please read: I can tell you how to get your money back if you have purchased the ozark trail air bed. So keep reading. . .
Ok so I to purchased the ozark trail elevated air bed (queen size) for $50 and got it home and it would not hold air at all.

We bought an Ozark Trail elevated queen size mattress from Wal-Mart in Memphis, TN. It did not hold air over night. We tried to return it but Wal-Mart's policy states. . . If the air mattress has been opened and used, it can not be returned. They will exchange but not return.

The air mattress itself might be a good inflatable bed if you could air it up.

My sister bought a mattress at a Walmart in Many, La for us to use during Thanksgiving. We did not open the bed before to see if it would air up since she bought the only foot pump that was available to air it up.

Purchased queen sized air mattress from Wal-Mart about a month ago and it started going down hill from there. The sides started bulging out leaving one side deformed and then on the top a hole appeared at one of the circle seams. Both non repairable.

I have had one of these twin mattress for 3 years. the first 2 1/2 years I would use it for camping when friends would spend the night. the last 1/2 year i slept on it every night and I weigh 365 lb. I love sleeping on it although it gets a little cold if the room is cold.

I bought this air bed one month ago at Walmart and it's already leaking air and going flat. I want to return it.

I recently purchased an Ozark Trail air mattress for when daughter and grandkids visit, but they complained of pain in their backs with just one night stay.

Bought the self-inflating queen size mattress, worked for a couple of weeks then starting losing air. Stays pumped up for about an hour.

Seams started leaking after second camping trip. It was very nice when it worked but now useless! Leaking area not repairable.

Ok, for all of the dumb people who keep saying to keep pointy objects and pets away from the mattress, you are the lucky few who get the better end of the deal when purchasing your air beds.

We bought our first air bed when we had some temporary visitors in our apartment and we didn't have enough beds to provide for everyone's needs.

Have grandchildren that spend the night. I recently moved to small apartment. I purchased a queen sized air mattress with an air pump. It lost air overnight.

I went to Walmart and did not have receipt. They would not take back. I then bought another one just exactly like it.

When I moved out west I was very poor and couldn't afford a nice bed. So I went to Walmart and picked up a queen sized Ozark Trail Air Mattress, not the elevated kind. I added a 2 inch foam pad on top, plus a quilted cotton mattress cover and also some cotton sheets.

I have had my Ozark Queen size mattress for three years and have only had great success. It will stay plump with one adult and two children. I must be the blessed one. It's the best.

i bought this air mattress a few years ago, i only use it once a year. we use a hand pump or a air pump. Either way it goes flat in the middle of the night. is there a trick of not having this thing go flat. even with the cap on tight. i can't take it back its been used too much and i never keep the store slips, i never think to!

The Ozark Trails queen air bed is a POS. Walmart has a cruddy 15-day return policy and won't take it back, even with a receipt. Beware, if it's a low price at Walmart, it's junk.

Used it twice, first time it seemed ok. Stored it in my basement for 30 day, then used it again. It deflated within about 4 hours. This is junk.

I have had to keep taking back this because all the one I have received once I get the aired up the air will only hold for like an hour and I am not a big women. So i think that someone needs to contact me ASAP on this matter. I cannot find a number or e-mail address to contact someone so I will wish someone would contact me my email is justice11292002@yahoo.

DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM! MY HOUSE ALMOST BURNED DOWN BECAUSE OF THE AIR PUMP!

It was a great queen sized air mattress, until camping one night, mattress kept leaking out air. We kept the pump in our closet, and the batteries arked over and got too hot.

I bought the Ozark Trail Elevated Memory Foam Air Bed - Queen size, 3 years ago and have Never had a problem with it. In fact I've not even had to add additional air, with the exception of once shortly after purchase, to my amazement! :)

I'm so happy with this bed and the fact that it alleviates pressure points, I find myself better rested and sleeping in it more often than my regular bed! :)

I can't believe the negative reviews I've just read that have led me to post this, but maybe they've bought the "occasional less than perfect model", or flooring, animals (as others have suggested) etc.

Had the queen size two years. Stays inflated for days even with the kids jumping on it and just got another. Don't leave home without it.

For those interested here is where you can get parts and service found on instructions in box intexstore.com

Not only were we on the floor the next morning after purchasing, but the pump stopped working halfway through the fill up...NEVER AGAIN will I buy something from this company!

Filled the mattress in the evening and woke up on the ground. It does not hold air at all. I would like my money back!! DON'T BUY THIS ITEM.

I have been very happy with this bed until last night when I rolled over and it burst! WHAT A PIECE OF #%$%$!

Zero stars = useless. This product isn't useless, you can use it as a barrier between the dirt and you.

Blew this up in the afternoon, went to sleep on it at midnight and it was flat.

Walmart wouldn't take it back claiming a health issue.

My biggest headache is how to get the valve of my Queen size repaired so I do not have to pump my mattress every day; some times 2 or 3 times daily. Can someone tell me what to do? The mattress was given to me as a gift by a friend who traveled out without giving me the purchase receipt.

We bought this for our granddaughters to sleep on when they wanted to spend the night. Pumped it up and the next morning they were on the floor. Pumped it up the next night and the next morning they were on the floor again. Read instructions again, did as it said, pumped up mattress again and next morning it was flat again.

I have purchased 2 Queensized air mattresses. I returned the first I bought because it leaked from (what I feel an) overly complicated valve that serves little purpose.

The one I received after I returned that one, worked and still works fine.

This bed was great. . . for the two weeks it lasted. Ever since then, the side seam is breaking apart due to poor craftsmanship. I'd understand if I was a 300 lb weightlifter sleeping on it, but I'm 150 lbs. I refill it every night, only to wake up in the morning with it 3/4 deflated and my back on the ground.

I am on my fourth queen size mattress in about 8 months. My husband and I are currently staying with my mother-in-law and are stuck sleeping in the living room, so we decided to buy an air mattress.

The first one we bought worked fine for a while until one day the top split, we took it back to Wal-Mart and got an exchange (all they would do).

I purchased your air mattress from wal-mart easter weekend. Did not take it out of the box until we got up the mountain to camp. Bought the queen size. Bought a blower to go with it. Got there blew it up and by morning we were sleeping on the ground.

Do not buy. It will not stay inflated. You would make out better buying a cot or just sleeping on the floor. I ended on the floor every night I attempted to use it. For $95 I could have gotten a room with a shower.... Simply, don't buy it!!!! Anyone with their phone/email please post-it.

This product worked great the first few weeks we had it. Then suddenly we noticed that every few days we needed to fill it with air again. Now we're lucky if it makes it an hour! The seams on the product give away!

It's suppose to be outdoor equipment but I don't see how if it can't stand up to indoor use!? I'm taking it back to Wal-Mart tomorrow morning for a credit.

Have bought two in last six months.. not by choice.. first one developed a bubble. had to replace it in the middle of the trip. Bought another larger bed and also developed a bubble in a period less than 3 months... products are useless.. not recommended....have two useless pieces of plastic that are not worth the cheap materials or labor that was put into their design...

Bought...used one night. Leaked.

Returned to store. No refund possible. Tried another. It also leaked, lost air, deflated...whatever you call it. I want a refund.

I have previously owned air mattresses with better success.

I sincerely believe I followed instructions properly.

I bought a twin 19" high and took it back the same day. (I gave it 3 stars having never owned it for more than 4 hours. ) It had a silly built-in pillow. I knew I would get a crick from it and putting a pad over it to make it higher, I still had a hard, round bump to sleep on.

This is the worst product that I have ever bought from WalMart. This air mattress has people saying that they have used it for days even weeks. There is no way.

The first one that we had, the "pillow" area came unstitched, and it was like trying to sleep on a slide.

My boyfriend and I have a memory foam queen mattress and lost the manual, so we got on here to see if anyone knew about the "memory foam" top. How much air should we put in it?

Anyway, after reading the first page of reviews, my original issue was completely forgotten as I was distracted by the ridiculous comments made by other consumers.

The air mattress was ok for a couple of months (I must've been lucky after reading these reviews), but then the seams on the top and side popped.

It is still full of air, but it's just a giant ball of air now rather than a seamed mattress. Too late for an exchange. Beware!

I bought the elevated queen size air mattress in July when I moved back in with my parents. I have had to buy 4 more since then as they do not keep air. By the end of the night I am on the floor. The ergonomic design just causes holes when it separates.

I purchased my Ozark Trail air mattress about 2-3 years ago and love it> in fact, I sought out the site to see if you still have the model I have. . . it has the plug in (electric) to air fill.

Prior to that I'd wanted another big name brand ($100), I bought first one - it leaked - they replaced it - it leaked too.

I buy 3 of them, one for my guest room where nobody use it and after well it goes flat.

Get one in my bedroom, sleep Okay for a month than a slow leak came. Buy another one and 6 months later I have to inflate it every day, try to inject a can of flat tire fix, that did not fix it, bring it outside, inflate it and than hose it down, and it show no leak at all? But, every morning it's flat? How to fix it?

My dad purchased my queen size Ozark mattress for me when I lived in NC. We used it twice for camping and then I decided I wanted to move to AZ. . . liquidated everything.

My husband and I have been using this air mattress every night for 6 months.

I bought 2 of the Ozark Trail air mattresses - one was single and the other queen. I bought them 4 years ago for my vacation place and never had a problem until this year when I brought my dogs with me. They romped on the queen mattress every time I turned my head, finally it sprung a leak.

In one word "useless". If I wanted to sleep on the floor, I would not have bought an air mattress.

The first night was great, second night was awful, felt like I slept on the floor and Walmart would not refund me my money or exchange it. Got a second one, same thing. I will keep taking it back to the same Walmart every day if i have to. My furniture does not come in for three more days, so whatever it takes.

The Ozark Trail air mattress sucks! We bought one for our daughter to sleep on when she moved back home recently and it constantly leaks air! The seams on the top of the "so-called" mattress separate, leaving gaping splits for the air to leak out!

Stay away from this product unless you like a crappy POS air bed!! I think we would have been better off to have purchased an inflatable pool float for her to sleep on instead! But we did just purchase a Coleman brand that so far is holding up very nicely.

Leaks down the first time used on SOFT carpet. Also difficult to use a regular pillow because of it's shape at the head area. Not enough head support with out a pillow and too high with one. Going back immediately.

When my boyfriend and I moved into our new apartment, we bought several regular air mattresses. Needless to say they were horrible, so we went out and purchased the Ozark Trail Queen size memory foam mattress. It was great! Felt like sleeping on a real mattress, then we got a kitten, big mistake on our part yes, she got into the room and put a little hole in it :(

So we went out and bought a new one, this one a little different it didn't have the felt on it, it was PVC top and sides we've now had this for 3 weeks.

We where using it when we had visitors and needed an extra bed. It leaks after filling it with the build-in pump in the pump area. I decided to take the pump out to find just what the problem was and discovered that the adjustable shut-off was the cause of the leak which rotates across the openings.

Obviously, others here do not understand the logic behind sleeping on an air mattress.

While sleeping on an air mattress, you CANNOT have anything pointy on your person. This will result in damaging the mattress, thus losing air.

That being said, I own one of these mattresses, and personally, I love it.

We have bought 2 queen size air mattresses-only for the nights our grandchildren stay with us. In the winter I am concerned that our floors are too cold for a pallet, so we got an air mattress. Only it kept leaking down.

We didn't have the receipt so we gave up and bought another.

I bought an Ozark trail air mattress, for an overnight guest.

It doesn't hold air. Totally useless.

I purchased one of these a few years ago that works great. I purchased (2) more this year to go on vacation and the first one we inflated, deflated during the night with my grandson on it. I inflated the other one the next day and had to add a little air each night.

Absolutely horrible!! Constantly loses air during the night. Woke up and refilled with air 3 times the first night we used. Waking up feeling like a rolled taco as the bad deflated and I sunk into the middle. STAY AWAY from this product unless you like having backaches in the morning.

The first time I inflated this bed it deflated in one day without being used. When someone actually tries to sleep on it it deflates in hours.

I tried to return it to Walmart after 20 days of purchase with receipt but they did not take it back.

Well looks like no one has the same problem as I so although I did not read all the reviews. Looks like the problems have been for some while now from the dates of these reviews.

My problem is however that the last time I used the airbed the pump stopped on me and I had a terrible time getting enough air in the bed to fill it completely.

So I used this air mattress 1 time and it worked fine. The second time I used it was not so good. It now loses air over a short period of time and an air bubble forms above the memory foam top and that is a pain in the butt. Save your money and buy a futon :(

I purchased this new Ozark Trail Queen Size Memory Foam Elevated Air Bed with Pump at Wal-Mart to sleep overnight at my sister’s house with my family. My wife and I and our 8-month-old twins were sleeping on it that night. Around 3:30 a. m. April 20th, 2006, my wife awoke and could not find baby Amelia anywhere, only to find her stuck in the space between the wall and the semi-deflated mattress, which had smothered her.

I would have never thought this many people would have the same problems with an air mattress. I purchased this a year ago and have used it 3-4 times. The last time, I went camping and had to get up three times during the night to fill it back up.

Junk, loses air as soon as it's inflated. Walmart refuses to give me a refund for it. Save your money, do not buy this product!

I bought a queen size elevated airbed. The next morning when I got up it had lost a lot of air. I returned it to Walmart where you can only get an exchange. I exchanged it for a new one (same kind). That one lost air too. So I am either stuck with it or I will have to keep exchanging or get a different one and see if they all are the same.

It's awesome. I really liked it a lot. But recently while shifting the room I lost the cap to close the air flow.

We purchased a queen airbed during the holidays for special company that was coming in January. The bed looked great and inflated easily. By morning our special guests were on the floor and had experienced a very difficult night. I felt terrible for them.

The mattress was good for the situation I needed it for, however, it kept losing air. I had to inflate it almost every other night.

Last was the worst, I woke up laying on a bubble, air apparently is seeping in from the bottom to the top portion of the mattress. It's now useless.

I paid over $40 for this mattress when I was in a pinch working on a house out of town. I used it about 3 or 4 times since I purchased it about a year and a half ago at Walmart. Blew it up last night to use and woke up in th middle of the night with a "sinking" feeling that it was losing air.

I purchased the twin mattress with the double top and bottom so it's high off the floor. Since I don't have a bed at this time and back problems I figured this would be perfect until I get a bed.

I aired it up and tried to sleep on it but it just didn't work.

I, like so many others, purchased the queen size Ozark air mattress . . . LASTED 1/2 CAMPING TRIP. I was sure it was something my child had done, but after looking into it, it was the seam like everyone else's.

I tried to return it to Walmart and was told they no longer sold these and refused to give me a refund.

On New Years Eve I took my brand new Ozark Trail Queen size with memory foam air mattress out of the box and filled it. On New Years I found myself sleeping on a flat mattress. I took it back and exchanged it.

The first time I took the next new mattress camping, I again woke to find myself on a greatly deflated mattress.

I've used the same air mattress for three years of camping. Never had a problem. It pumps up quickly with a manual pump. It is very comfortable for sleeping. I won't go camping without it. It has never leaked. I will buy another when the time comes.

Do you like junk? If so, I highly recommend the Ozark Trail make believe foam air mattress. Do you like the sound of leaking air? This one’s for you. Soothing air leaking out to help you relax. Do you love the feel of a nice hard floor under your back? Don't wait, get the royal screw at Walmart, with the infamous Ozark Trail leaky mattress.

I purchased this plastic bag TWICE and not even ONCE could i enjoy it. It leaks everywhere and is just an inferior product in any way u want to see it. I pity anyone who takes this outdoors without a backup cause they are in for a lousy night. Don't buy this. It SUCKS.

I got the memory foam Ozark Trail queen-sized mattress for a gift, to be used on my camping expeditions. I have inflated it and it seems to be fine. The electric pump works fast, and the mattress also deflates rather quickly.

My issue is the pump is electric.

The only reason I gave it a half star is because the frame lasted a lot longer than the mattress. We had to put air in it the first time we used it and every few hours through the night too. The frame is broken too, on the corner where the straps connect. Will never buy another.

One of the bubbles blew out all the way through. Walmart would not let me return the second one. The 1st one yes, but the second one they said they changed policy. I needed to call the manufacturer which was not listed anywhere; that was a job in itself.

Recently i was told that the company would not take the mattresses back if box was opened. I have a question how do you know if there is a leak or a seam that is not properly glued together or the air spout is stripped causing a leak, if you don't open the box? This is horrible.

I took this mattress elk hunting as a sleeping pad on my cot. It had to be aired up every night. The second time I used it it did not even last the night. I would not waste my time or money on another Ozark Trail product.

I purchased an Ozark Trail Elevated Twin size air mattress last year. I have tried many others already and there is not one that has lasted this long or is as comfortable as this. I use it every night. My husband and I are on different sleeping schedules and this works great.

Used it for camping a few times, then needed it when I was trying to find a new mattress. OK for a while then split at the seam, and we tried about a dozen times to patch it and it couldn't be done. Seems the seams are the problem. My advice - buy the $15 version and save yourself some money since they are all going to leak at the seams apparently.

I purchased this elevated twin size airbed to use while my bedroom was being renovated. I slept on it every night for 3 months. It is the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. After the initial fill, I only put a few seconds of air, maybe 3 or 4 times in the entire 3 months.

How much do you folks weigh? My roommate bought the double memory foam mattress and it lasted a month and rightly so; he weighs 350lbs. No way can those things hold up under that amount of stress. I'm looking for the weight capacity so I can show him he's too fat.

This bed is the second one we got from Walmart and it is leaking we have had the bed about 1 week. The first bed we had blew up when I lay down on it because of the fact that it was coming apart on the inside of the bed and I took it back to Walmart and spent 6 hours fighting with the people and now I am going to have to do it again and I really don't think that I am going to buy another thing from Ozark Trail and I think that they should give me back the 70 dollars I have spent on the beds cus of the fact that I had to buy both of the beds and I think that this company makes really piece of sh*t beds.

Well, yes...this mattress does leak... but I have to say that Wal-Mart did not even asked what happened, they have a great customer service and they exchanged the product with no problem...now the second mattress leaked again but this time I kept the receipt and they refunded my money.

We bought two of the queen size air mattresses, they both were used twice. On the third try they BOTH deflated within 1 hour of inflation. This will be our last time buying Ozark anything!! Our extended family has also been warned of the name brand and how useless and how we threw away our money on two queen mattresses.

I have had this mattress for less than 2 months and have patched the same 4 inch area on the third seam near the top 5 times. I wouldn't waste a penny on another Ozark Trail anything.

I own the queen elevated air bed with the built in pump. This mattress is superb. The built in pump makes it so easy to use. It is electric though and you would need an outlet. I have a very severe spinal problem and use it regular at home. I share it with a cat and a 115lb dog----that's how sturdy it is.

I have been in Afghanistan for a few months now and whenever I'm in the main camps I use the double pump hand pump that came with the mattress and pump that baby up. It is awesome. I get an excellent night's sleep and I wouldn't leave home without it.

I was planning on using this mattress for my personal bed. It lasted about 6 weeks and then got several holes along the seam on the top. Then it got holes along the seam on the side. It is a queen size double layered mattress with memory foam on the top.

Only lasted one camping trip, which during this time, worked great. The following weekend I tried taking it out camping it wouldn't hold air for more than a couple hours without a load. Forget trying to sleep on it period.

My experience with this air mattress has been terrible. Every time I use the air pump to inflate the mattress, huge air bubbles come along with it. It makes it very uncomfortable to sleep on. I purchased it from Walmart and they will not give a refund or exchange...

Bought the mattress about three weeks ago. Stayed up the first few nights, then began putting air in it every other night. Went away for a week, when we came back it looked lopsided.

Then tonight, 31st May 2007, just about had a heart attack. Laying on the air bed it started swelling up, but it was making such a loud banging noise, actually it was real scary.

I am 61 years old, using this item for my regular bed. I have carpet under it and use it for sleep only. I have purchased two of these since November and both have developed a leak on the top in a seam, looks like a crack, not cut or punctured. Why is the material falling apart on me?

My wife and I purchased this product at Wal-Mart and thought we were getting a creditable product, but we soon found out that it was not.

The mattress held firm for about 2 weeks and then went flat. Even after inflating it again, within 2 hours it was flat again.

This has been the worst waste of hard earned money. I've had four of these the past year, including the memory foam (where is it) mattress. I have patched the seams until I just can't patch anymore. Once you have a leak the process is ongoing, fix one and another seam splits.

Product leaked after second use. Unable to find product manufacturer's website to complain. Was purchased at Wal-Mart Stores and unable to get replacement or refund. Will never purchase the product again!!!

The foldable cot is ok, durable. The inflatable mattress starting loosing air after the first use. Attempting to replace the air mattress through Walmart has been a nightmare. Trying to find a web sight to Ozark Trail in order to obtain a replacement has also been a pain.

I have purchase four of these mattresses. They will last for a couple of night's sleep, but, it never fails, they always leak. I am on the fourth one now, and discovered today that it has a small leak. I have had this happen when I am out camping, and ended up sleeping on the ground because the mattress lost all of its air.

I have had this mattress for about five months now and I have been sleeping on it regularly, till last night when it started leaking. I will fill it up again and in about an hour it loses almost half the air in it. I have found the website for those of you who may be interested in it. http://www.intexcorp.com/store/default.aspx

It seemed fine for three months then a slow leak which can't be found. I believe it is leaking from the valve. Past 90 day warranty and unable to find an email address to contact company.

Mattress seam started leaking after two weeks of camping. This thing looks slick but is a complete turd. It is advertised as having a "memory foam top". Memory foam? It's 2mm thick! I smell a class action lawsuit.

I purchased an air mattress last evening and when I got it home and hooked it up to the air pump, the mattress displayed a 1 1/4" cut in the middle of one of the 'tubes' and there were various 'spots' on the velour that to me said it was a used product, and merely vacuumed clear of any air and refolded to appear new.

After slow leaks began I would refill it during the night, not having found the leak. Now, the air channel just to the right of the pump nzzle has becoume distorted in shape and looks as though it has a full-length aneurysm, rocks from side to side, and the bottom is also a swollen air chamber!

Started leaking the second time we used it.

Product leaked after second use -- replaced with a new one from the store and started leaking after a few uses.

This mattress is utterly worthless. The first one leaked after two days. Took it back for an exchange. The second one lasted about a month before it started leaking. The patch kit is of no use at all since it is impossible to tell where the leak is. A total waste of money.

This is the worst waste of money, please do not waste your time! I bought this air mattress out of state on a family vacation to use in the hotel room so we could save money. Little did I know I was actually wasting money and setting myself up for more frustration than anything.

I have purchased several other brands of inflatable air beds. None of the others have stood the test of time. However, the Ozark, being used by me several times a week, has proven to be high quality for the price paid. Your pumps and other accessories are outstanding.

I have two Ozark air mattresses. We use them only during summer months for camping and I have had them for three years now. Never had a problem with air loss. . . good product.

I purchased the Ozark Trail Queen sized air mattress for my two young girls to sleep on in my room for the summer. The air conditioning was only in my room. They, together, weigh less than 100 lbs--MUCH smaller than the two adults the bed was made for.

For God sake, do not buy this mattress. I had this mattress for my apartment for school because I did not want to log around a bed, but I woke one morning with severe back pain and found myself almost on the floor. The mattress slowly leaked at points of seam.

The very first time I used the mattress it was slow leaking. Had to wake up every three hours to pump some more air in it. Arrgggg!

When will I learn to keep the receipts for stuff I've purchased?

I recently purchased a queen size air mattress and frame. I have the same problem with the mattress leaking within an hour. The frame and carry case on wheels are excellent but the mattress is usless. When two people are on the bed it leaks much faster.

My problem with the Ozark Trail mattresses is that they seem to leak at the pump. I first bought a self-inflating Ozark Trail. At the first filling it worked perfectly untol I took it out of the house. Seems when I pump it up the mattress leaks after an hour.
