Intex makes more air mattresses than almost anyone, and its Dura-Beam line is the brand's main guest-bed range. The Deluxe Premium Comfort is a queen that stands 18 inches off the floor and uses Intex's Fiber-Tech construction, in which thousands of high-strength fibers inside the chamber replace traditional coils to hold the shape. A dual-layer comfort top with a chevron-print flocked surface gives sheets something to grip, and Intex says the edge and bottom ring construction keeps the bed stable and sleepers toward the middle. An internal electric pump handles inflation and deflation. It cost $69.99 on Intex's own US store when we checked, less than half the price of the SoundAsleep Dream Series. What you give up is the extra detail: the page did not show the warranty length when we looked, there is no secondary pump, and the 18-inch height is slightly lower than our top pick. For occasional guests it is the best value raised bed we compared.
