While they’re not strictly a sofa, this futuristic set of Vango Inflatable chairs may as well be. They have been specifically designed as a pair which can closely fit together to allow two people to choose to sit closely together if they so desire (or not as the case may be!).

Because the two cushions are connected to each other and to the main frame of the sofa they can also be unfolded into a Queen-size bed measuring 221 x 193 x 66 cm. This is long enough for me to stretch out in full, and I’m pretty tall at 6ft3 (191cm). It is exceptionally comfortable and great for chilling out to watch TV or similar, or even lie out in the sun. We love the flexibility of the Intex, and for the money it is hard to beat. Punctures With all that space available, the option to bring along some luxury furniture is often too good to resist. If you are likely to have friends visiting your tent for drinks or there are a few of you camping together then a huge inflatable air sofa is a fantastic bit of kit for social gatherings. They are doubly good for just chilling out. Materials are reasonable however I cannot get too enthusiastic on this front. The PVC plastic is adequate for the price of the sofa and seems reasonably robust in my experience. However there are reports of deflating sofas on the internet and so you evidently need to take care when you sit down. Saying that though, the manufacturers state a maximum load of 400kg is permissible and so if anything does happen, you should invoke the warranty. Thankfully our review unit survived our testing.

Inflation is a doddle but there is no pump provided (understandable at this price). There is just a single valve for the entire unit – plug in your pump, switch on and you’ll be inflated in under 5 minutes. We wouldn’t recommend doing it with lung power alone (we tried) – a pump is essential! In Use It’s the camping equivalent of a Chesterfield regency leather sofa – the Bestway Inflatable Couch is a low price offering but wouldn’t look out of place in a Gentlemen’s club. They are flexible – some of the best blow up settees can be reconfigured into beds for nighttime sleeping. We have found this useful because I’m a snorer. My wife Ali and daughter Loz often sleep in the campervan, and I use the inflatable sofa in our awning. Don’t tell them but it’s actually comfier than the campervan bed! The cheapest option on test, but potentially the most fun (for the kids at least). The Asab Double Pod is essentially two moulded apertures within an inflatable body creating what looks like a large pair of goggles.

Another downside as a bed is that the two chambers have a gap between them which you lie over and can slide down into a bit at night. Again, not completely the end of the world but it’s not the greatest design – it needs some attachable straps to draw the sections together. Settle in with popcorn and a movie, or enter a spirited conversation with coffee and friends. Our luxurious inflatable corner sofa creates a welcoming, yet intimate space in any corner of your home. The modern contoured curves, wide arm rests and deep robust cushions spaciously accommodates a family of four. All the while being housed in a sophisticated beige finish that can be accented with a few colorful pillows that will bring your style and your décor to center stage. Another slight downside is that in sofa mode, the top chamber is simply resting on the lower chamber with no significant strapping to secure them together. This isn’t the end of the world, but does make the seat a little more unstable than the Outdoor Revolution Campese say. Bed modeA corner sofa may also be an improbable addition to any lounge. This superbly designed piece is casual and happy with deep seats and wide armrests for a sleekly streamlined subtle appeal. The Intex Inflatable Corner Couch is the absolute daddy of the inflatable world. You need a sizeable tent to house it, but you’ll be basking in luxury once it’s up. Materials and Dimensions
