Reviews

Tatiana

Very cool, unrealistically comfortable mattress! He will be your true friend for a very long time! I am delighted with him, I sleep like on a warm, soft cloud, he is very soft, comfortable, comfortable, airy. To be honest, I bought it with the thought that I would never sleep on it. But one day we went with the whole family to visit relatives and took the mattress with us, it takes up little space and transporting it is not a big deal. Upon arrival, we quickly pumped it up with an electric pump, went to bed, and in the morning I woke up unusually well-rested, rested, I had never slept so sweetly. At home, I often sleep on it, buy it, and you will be happy))) and sweet airy dreams)

Evgenia

In the summer we went to visit friends for a week and we had to sleep on a mattress …. believe me, it’s better to sleep on the floor. If someone fidgets or tosses and turns, the creak is on the whole house, I have never slept normally. Next time I’d better bring furniture foam rubber with me, it’s much more convenient.

Michael

It deflates quickly and creaks terribly. I didn’t like it at all, I don’t advise anyone to buy it, it’s utter disgusting.

Victor

We have been using the Intex Rising Comfort Queen mattress for more than six months, with the onset of autumn it began to deflate a little bit, now it deflates very much in 24 hours. In principle, with careful attitude, it will last a very long time. I don’t know how the quality depends on the price, at first it was not very comfortable to sleep on it, and then we got used to it, and the squeaks and the orthopedic shape of the mattress were not afraid of us. Now I want to buy a second one.

Anton

Before buying a mattress, we consulted with the seller for a long time, in the end we decided to take INTEX. Unlike Bestway, an Intex mattress has one component, and therefore the probability of marriage is negligible. We purchased Intex with a built-in electric pump, the air bed suits us completely, it does not lower, and over time we got used to the squeak).
