Most air mattresses force a choice between firm and stable or soft and wobbly. Intex's Control Comfort splits the bed into two separately adjustable chambers: you inflate the base firmly, then set the upper chamber to the softness you want. Intex says the firm base keeps the bed from sinking or becoming unstable even when the top is soft. A FastFill II dual chamber internal pump handles both chambers, so there is still no separate pump to find. The queen stands 22 inches tall at 60 by 80 inches, Intex rates it for 600 lb, and the flocked sides are described as more puncture and abrasion resistant. At $69.99 on Intex's own store when we checked, marked down from $99.99, it was the best value on this list. It is not as simple as a single button, and the pump still needs mains power, but for a couple or a guest who is fussy about firmness it is a lot of bed for the money.
