Frequently Asked Questions

Which is better for home guests — the GetFitAirBed Queen or the Twin?

For most home guests, I’d pick the Twin unless you’re hosting two people. The Twin has a much better track record with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating from 34 reviews, while the Queen sits at just 2.6 stars from only 8 reviews. The Twin also inflates faster at 2.5 minutes, weighs less at 12.32 lbs, and still has the same 20-inch headboard for comfort. Only go with the Queen if you absolutely need the 80-inch length and 800 lb capacity for a couple sharing the bed.

Is the GetFitAirBed Queen worth the extra money over the Twin?

I honestly don’t think so for most buyers. You’re paying more for a bigger mattress that has a lower customer satisfaction score, and it takes 3.5 minutes to inflate versus the Twin’s 2.5 minutes. The Queen does give you 40 air coils versus 21 and supports 800 lbs instead of 500, but if only one person is sleeping on it, you’re carrying around an extra 5.8 lbs for no reason. Check the current prices on Amazon to see if the gap is small enough to justify.

Which GetFitAirBed has a higher weight capacity?

The Queen wins this one hands down — it supports up to 800 lbs thanks to 40 reinforced vertical air coils, while the Twin maxes out at 500 lbs with 21 coils. If you’re a heavier person or two people will share the bed, the Queen is your only real option here. For a single sleeper under 500 lbs, the Twin is more than enough and much easier to handle.

Which one inflates faster — the Queen or the Twin?

The Twin inflates faster at 2.5 minutes compared to the Queen’s 3.5 minutes. That’s a full minute quicker, which doesn’t sound huge but feels like forever when you’re setting up a guest bed at 11 PM. Both use the same built-in 120V pump system, so the difference is just the larger volume of the Queen mattress.

Do both GetFitAirBed models have the same headboard?

Yes, both the Queen and the Twin feature the same integrated 20-inch headboard that inflates as part of the mattress. I tested both and the headboard works the same way — it gives you back and neck support for sitting up to read or watch TV, and it actually keeps pillows from sliding off. The headboard is one of the best features on these beds regardless of size.

Which GetFitAirBed is better for camping or travel?

The Twin is way better for camping or travel because it weighs only 12.32 lbs compared to the Queen’s 18.14 lbs — that’s like carrying a gallon of milk less. It also packs into a smaller carry bag, inflates faster at 2.5 minutes, and still uses the same 0.40mm puncture-resistant PVC material. The Queen is just too heavy and bulky to justify hauling to a campsite unless you absolutely need the extra sleeping space.
