    THANK YOU SO MUCH! Tonight I decided to go on RUclips and find out WHY is my 4th air mattress deflating AGAIN when it’s nearly rated 5 stars. A HOLE! But this whole time I thought it was the air mattresses motor going bad! I did the spray bottle trick and found 2 tiny baby holes! It’s like my air mattress started whistling at me LOL! You don’t know how grateful I am for your video. I CAN SLEEP TONIGHT!!! Thank you

    Wow man. Thanks for the tip! I had an air mattress (my favorite one) that had a hole and had been sitting in my garage for 2 years since I kept procrastinating. Finding holes were always a chore. This was super easy. Found the hole in and checked the rest of the mattress in less than 5 minutes. Thank you!!

    We have the same mattrass... I also believe this is the best method to find air leaks (soap water) .. I had already checked the sides and under the bottom before coming across ur video because i really feared the worst - it being on top on the soft side... to no avail.. I went to check the top side and without even having to soap it up. My hole was quite visible in 1 of the grooves as you rightfully pointed out the possibility and frequency of there being a weak point. Thanks for your video!

    Good video. I appreciate your effort. I’ve tried this method several times and have never had success with it on an air mattress. Bicycle tire tubes, yes! Dozens of times.
    I think on an air mattress, you just can’t put enough pressure in them (without damage) to find a very slow leak. I’ve never had a leak as bad as yours was. Mine usually last most of the night at least.
    Nice thought, though.

But then I called SoundAsleep and asked them them if I could depend on this mattress for everyday use. The company rep said no it will deteriorate and develop issues if I use it everyday. Using it everyday will void the warrantee. So I am not going to keep it. I will be returning it and buying a real bed. Air mattresses are no good!!! Do not buy one.

    So how to fix a hole that's positioned in a crease! What specific fix can achieve that?

      Super glue does a great job, an air mattress patch could work too, but I've had more luck (and it's cheaper) with super glue!

      @@ToothpasteJuice To clarify... . Is that superglue "with a fabric patch" or superglue "on its own" . Hope that's a fare question. Thanks.
