Could I use this as a permanent bed? I live in a dorm, so portability and comfort is key.

Thanks for reaching out. Candidly, the air mattress - an really any air mattress regardless of brand - is not designed to be used every single day. Once you start using daily for more than a few months issues are likely to arise. The mattress is not designed for that type of daily wear and tear. We would hate to lose you as a customer but always want to be front and tell you when our product is not the right one for you. If you need something every day we strongly encourage you to consider a traditional mattress, not an air mattress, regardless of brand - particularly in a dorm environment. Regards, The SoundAsleep Team

We use it as a weekend bed for company and they say it is comfortable. So I would say you should have no problem using it in a dorm room as a permanent bed.

I use it at work for over night shifts. I believe that you could use it as your bed in your dorm. It's comfortable and portable.

I use this as an "every night" bed. Its the most comfortable bed ive ever slept on and im 55 yrs old. Mind you i put a 2" (DreamDNA) gel foam pad(FULL size fits perfectly on queen) and a regular mattress pad topper(deep pocket) on top on the QUEEN sized air bed. A PERFECT set up and im actually surprised its so comfortable . I had to top up the air once after 3rd day and maybe im due for a slight add now after 2 months. 100% i would recommend for full time use.

We use this mattress as a permanent bed and find it very comfortable. Still it is not a real mattress and you feel that you are laying on air - so when you get up it feels a little bit shaky like in a rubber boat, but that's just how it is. You are getting used to it and it's way more affordable than a real bed (imagine how easy it is, when you have to another dorm!).

Not sure you would want to. Comfortable to sleep on but needs to have air added everyday. Loses air throughout the night. Just a little but noticeable in the morning.

If the bed is protected from sharp items, there is no reason this bed cannot be used as a regular bed. I would keep the bed near an outlet so it can be topped off every now and then.

Yes it can, but it don't hold up well.. Ours broke after a few weeks.. Now it just lays flat like a bed

This definitely not a bed you want to be moving around much as it can get awkward to hold and on the heavy side. It also will not store vertically because of the memory foam. You're better getting a trundle bed/daybed set. Hope this helps!

Well, probably, except the mattress is 12 inches thick and weighs about 70 lbs., so you can't really fold it up and put it away. If you are leaving it out it would probably be comfortable.

I used it as a mattress for a trailer...it should work well for what you want to do.

Definitely. I bought it for my son to use in his dormitory at school. He is a light sleeper and tells me that he has no problem sleeping at night with it in his room

I wouldn't use it as a bed but it makes an amazing accent chair for a small bedroom or studio apartment!

Yes, we actually purchased this bed for my daughter to take to college with her. It has a small footprint but bed is big enough for my 18 year old. It also has tons of storage.

With a 2 inch memory foam topper this bed can be used as a permanent bed, without the topper the grooves in the mattress tend to be uncomfortable for some people

Mine is used temporarily when I have guests; they find it to be pretty comfortable but I would not use it to replace a permanent bed. I do not think it is suitable as a back support for an extended period.

It's not very tall and I would not suggest using it for a permanant bed. I have had friends sleep on it one night and decide to sleep on the floor the next it is so uncomfortable.

I wouldn't since it needs electricity to make it so it won't go down and electricity to inflate. It is more as a second bed than a camping one.

I would not recommend it. It opens into a narrow bed and it is quite hard. I slept on it with a foam padding and it was OK for me. I am quite slender so it was all right for a night or two. I use it as a spare when I have sleepover guests.

I guess you could but it's more like foam rubber than a regular mattress so it doesn't have the support that a regular mattress does.

IF you are just using it as a bed I don't see why not, if it's folding into a couch, maybe not, matress may be too thick, I think they make memory foam mattresses just for futons though .

Yes the info says you can. You can even buy an adjustable base along with the bed.

Yes, you can. I have a memory foam mattress and I love the height - I think it is perfect.
