Hi Michael, you made my day with a very informative and funny video. I just bought one, but am going nowhere. Just want to change from a regular mattress that costs many times more and only lasted 4 years. My queens size mattress was $500, a good deal. Hope you are doing well, and post another video of how you are. .If I ever needed an employee, I would love to hire you, but I am retired and too old for that game.
Great video. Just and FYI in case you need to do it again: the back seats of the Corolla do come down, there are a couple of pulls in the trunk of the car, might be easier to do it that way.
Great video! This was helpful and fun to watch. Now I know it's possible to deflate a mattress that came in a box. And I also know that I don't want to do that. 😅 bit this video helped me to figure that out. Thanks.
Thanks hennessy! I appreciate the view and the comment! So far i've just posted some of my adventures but i think you've inspired me to do more how to videos! Have a good one!
Hi Michael- Got a queen bed to be moved in the next 2 weeks. Very impressed with your video and gives me confidence to be able to pull this one. I am not as strong as you are but have the help of a willing teenage daughter. The fact that you were able to fit it in a corolla, iu might be able to fit it in my Camry and not have to rent a U haul. Question: How thick was your mattress, the one i have is 12 inch.
cook master Hi Cook Master! Glad to be of service! Thanks for watching the video! I just measured, the mattress I deflated is 9.5 inches. I would imagine it should be able to fit in your Camry if you can fit it through the doors! Let me know how it goes if you remember a few weeks from now! Good luck! Have a great and safe trip!
@@michaelnicolos58 -Hi Michael. I found a 4 mil thk twin pack queen at Amazon for $12 and change. Was ableto tape the ends of the open end and as recommended by you used a rectangular open end adapter and with a new shop vac from Walmart the 12 inch mattress was flattened in less than 14 mins. Last week the 16th i rolled it up and tomorrow will be moving it to the new place. Since the new place is only in the next block i am going to strap it to a 2 wheel dolly and move it. I have taken the video of it and tomorrow will take another shot of teh deflation and then will post it and will let you know. Thanks for your video and was a great help in doing it on my own..
I enjoyed watching your video, it was very entertaining. A few laughs of course and, you're so CUTE! Hope you're settled in Hotlanta...and staying out of trouble...lol.
great video Michael! I'm curious to know, before I start this process for myself, did you notice any change to the mattress after this? Like it not getting back to its original form or height? Thanks!
Hi Egemen! Thanks for the comment, fortunately i didn't run in to any problems along the way, it was a cool trip! I added some videos of the journey on my channel if your interested haha
Hmmm, I don't think it would work with a regular vaccuum. I would think the vacuum would only get to a certain suction point until it can't pull anymore, then overheat trying to maintain it, but I'm not sure, let me know if you try it!
Hi Alex, thanks for watching! Yea it worked great! A lot of work but it all went swimmingly! Would I do it again? Maybe not with that mattress, since then I've sold that mattress and upgraded to a Casper, but yes, I would probably do it again with the Casper if I needed to haha
Hi MarksParks! I had to fit alot in the car so unpacking took a while, but once I got the matress in the house it was just as easy as when i bought it new! Success!
Hi Heydon! The bag was a generic bag from home depot (not sure if you have those in the UK) but it looks like the brand was Pratt Retail Specialties.

Hmmm, that's a good question, if you would rather have the extra space, yes, I'd probably sell it and get a new one. But if you have the space on your trip it's not sooo inconvenient that I wouldn't do it again.
Probably would have been a easier that way but I was meeting a friend halfway through the drive and needed to keep the passenger seat open! Thanks for the comment!
Lay the passenger seat flat? How on earth would you do that? Most cars I know of you can't lay the front seats flat. He probably could have put the back seats flat and put it in from the trunk though.

😂😂😂 you’re so funny! Thanks for sharing!
Haha thank you! And thanks for watching!
Very informative moving from Chicago to Vegas and definitely needed a way to get my bed moved
Great video. Just and FYI in case you need to do it again: the back seats of the Corolla do come down, there are a couple of pulls in the trunk of the car, might be easier to do it that way.
Loved this!!! You should make more content!
Thank you for sharing, I ll do the same thing to move right now lol
Good Luck!

Oh Wow you save me a Ton. Thanks
6:09 setting yourself up for a final destination style death...
Hahahaha luckily that didn’t come to pass!
This is what I'm going to do.
Thankfully I have a hatchback, hah. Thanks!
Thanks for watching! Hatchback definitely would have been less sketch, I was afraid my door was going to break! lol
Great job! Most helpful! Thanks!
Thanks. Now I'll know how to repack my air matress when I move
Fantastic, well done to you...
Thank you! Appreciate the watch and comment!
Haha 😄 great video man , made my day.. you should definitely do more videos brother man ..

Thank you Mickee! I appreciate it!! :)
Haha! Can’t believe that worked
Why you had to spoil the final? 😁
You're hilariously creative 🤪
Hahaha why thank you! I do what I can lol
God bless you.
I'm shocked it actually works
Really surprised it worked congrats
great video Michael! I'm curious to know, before I start this process for myself, did you notice any change to the mattress after this? Like it not getting back to its original form or height?
Thanks!
Should give it 24-48 hours usually to get it reinflated before use
Hi! Nice video? Did you have any troubles during your trip?
Hi Egemen! Thanks for the comment, fortunately i didn't run in to any problems along the way, it was a cool trip! I added some videos of the journey on my channel if your interested haha
Amazing!!!
Thank you!
keep that front seat open for your Uber gig
Hope it didn't explode open on the drive to your next destiniation.
How long did the vaccum cleaner took to suck it all ?
I would like to know also
Hi Himanshu! All in all it took about 15 minutes to get the air fully sucked out! Thanks for the watch!
This might be a stupid question, but do you think it can work with a regular vacuum?
Hmmm, I don't think it would work with a regular vaccuum. I would think the vacuum would only get to a certain suction point until it can't pull anymore, then overheat trying to maintain it, but I'm not sure, let me know if you try it!
Where did u get the vacuum from
Thanks for the question, home depot!
Wow that really worked..👍👍👍
How were the results? Would you do this again? Mattress is the same as before?
Hi Alex, thanks for watching! Yea it worked great! A lot of work but it all went swimmingly! Would I do it again? Maybe not with that mattress, since then I've sold that mattress and upgraded to a Casper, but yes, I would probably do it again with the Casper if I needed to haha
How was unpacking it
Hi MarksParks! I had to fit alot in the car so unpacking took a while, but once I got the matress in the house it was just as easy as when i bought it new! Success!
Hi, could you tell me the brand of this bag? It seems that we are not able to get one in the UK.

@@michaelnicolos58 Thank you very much!
What machine is that?
Now that you're done successfully is this worth than selling it to somebody there and buy a new one on the new place?
Hmmm, that's a good question, if you would rather have the extra space, yes, I'd probably sell it and get a new one. But if you have the space on your trip it's not sooo inconvenient that I wouldn't do it again.
why didn't you lay the front passenger seat flat and put it lengthwise?
Probably would have been a easier that way but I was meeting a friend halfway through the drive and needed to keep the passenger seat open! Thanks for the comment!
Lay the passenger seat flat? How on earth would you do that? Most cars I know of you can't lay the front seats flat.

Watch it exploded 😅🤦
Tape the holes..
