Air mattress options

Time for new mattresses fo me and the missus, our Dune 4wd seld inflators aren't too great any more, I reckon the foam has seen it's day, so now left with huge amounts of air down by our feet and body now touches the floor. Still just about work OK on stretchers but they're tired after 4 years...... Would have been nice if they had lasted longer but considering I bought then on sale for around $60-70 each, I'm not complaining....... Now to choose ...... Exped or blackwolf, thinking the blackwolf may be better on stretchers than the exped, and exped better in the floor......

Hey Darren, were those Denalis bonded?

What does Bonded mean mate? As.in the inside bonded to the cover? I think so. They are nothing like the dune I replaced and much more like the black wolf. Great value

Always a risk of speaking too soon, but delivery service from Snowy's seems to be excellent. Just tracking my order so far:

Ordered 6 July at 11.40am, connote file lodged at 3.12pm, scanned into Toll Ipec depot (Adelaide) at 6.27pm.
7 July - Scanned into Toll Ipec depot (Melbourne) at 8.23am.

Now just needs to get down to Geelong so I reckon I'll have it Monday. Happy with that if it all pans out.

No they use Toll Ipec. Would be waiting until next year if it was Australia Post.

Yeah mate, the foam is glued to the cover, will have to give them a looksy when we get home

My Exped arrived today! Got an SMS this morning saying it was loaded on the delivery vehicle and leaving Melbourne, then a phone call when it arrived at the depot I nominated to pick it up from. Included in the parcel was a personalised thank you note from Snowy's asking for feedback good or bad and a really comprehensive camping checklist document. Can't knock the price or service I received so Snowy's gets a big thumbs up from me.

Now to let it inflate for a couple of days and then try it out. Probably will do that before 2 days though.

Ya know what shits me ?! When we used to do a load of parcels/ envelopes etc for Aus Post - Melb to Syd we got 10hrs MAX - Melb - Bris we got 18hrs ( from memory) , yet now if I order something that gets delivered via Aus post it takes a week / weeks to go from Melb to Gippsland.

Just taken a punt on 2 of these from Snowys - https://www.snowys.com.au/sim-camper...-inflating-mat will see how they are when they arrive next week.

As much as I would have liked to have got the Exped or Blackwolf, I really couldn't justify or afford to buy them at over $400 for 2

i got 2 epeds from tentworld in midland, about $380 for both i think from memory.
