Is the mattress self-inflating or do I need to buy a pump separately?

It is not self inflating so yes you do need to buy a pump. But i will say it's been about a month in a half to 2 months and it is still inflated. The last one i bout lasted a couple days.

No, it doesn't require a pump. It has two valves on one end that when opened allows the mat to self-inflate. I slept on this mat for three months while in Liberia and it was worth every penny.

The pump has settings from "Plush" to "Firm" and a sliding scale in between, so you can set it and forget it. Once self-inflated, it maintains that setting silently. My husband and I have always purchased firm mattresses, and this feels just like them. We have slept well on this bed. You CAN set it softer if you prefer.

The pump is separate. Works fast and easy, and sleeps quite well. I have two aerobeds for company and I put an inexpensive egg crate topper on them. Everyone tells me that they are super compy and sleep great!

Sorry for delay in responding to your question. My mattress has no way of removing its own pump and electrical outlet without tearing fabric, probably could modify it with lots of glue, and patches, but waste of time and money when it comes with a cord and self inflates because of small attached pump. Hope this helps. It is fast mine inflated within 10 minutes, on the 3 occasion s I used it.

We used our own air,and it did not take long at all. You can use a bike pump if you have one, or inflatable mattress. Grandson loves his, even uses it as pool.

It inflates like a beach ball but. Definately not something you would want to blow up yourself though. I used a battery operated pump that I use for air mattresses.

The pump is built into the bed. You just push a button on an attached controller to inflate or deflate and you can choose how much air to let in, for firmness control.

Yes ours came with a pump that inflates and deflates the mattress. We LOVE our Airbed for camping and company!

Hi: You really don't need a pump to inflate this ball. I blew it up with the little stick that comes with it and my mouth. I do this once in a while because the ball loses a bit of air and gets soft; so I just insert the little stick and blow through my mouth. It's really simple. I hope this helped!!.

It comes with everything to inflate also a patch which you WILL need. I had mine on carpet, never moved and in six months it was leaking--A LOT! Deflated completely in two days. Buy a better one.

its has a valve similar to inflatable raft, any pump with a nozzle type tip will inflate it fine. It comes with a very cheap pump but mine cracked after first use.

It does require an air pump to inflate. I used an air compressor because it actually requires quite a bit of air to fully inflate. Totally worth it though. I actually own three of them now. Highly recommend it.

No one says that you need to have air pump in order to inflate the ball.I purchase this and not able to play since i don't have air pump. Make sure you get air pump too.

No, the pump has to be bought on its own. My old pump fits our new Air Dream Replacement mattress. The Air mattress is totally complete as in the original and as in the photo to my left, but has no extra external parts.

There is a small plastic piece that holds the air in. To inflate you can use a handheld pump, like the kind if you were inflating a pool float. The pump is not included with this ball.
