Inflatable bed topper

Update 6/15/23

Battery powered outdoor shower with a bucket and added the 6” tri fold memory foam mattress. Bambed supports the bed with storage under using a scrap wood slider. Just need smaller totes and may cut out more holes to reduce weight.

The topper is manufactured by www.getflated.com. Bought from REI. 30% off + member kick back.

 

Its interesting. How sturdy is it? Could you strap a 80lb kayak to the top? Ive seen them and thought it was clever, but just wasnt sure who the target audience was.

 

The promo videos they stand on them, jump around, they even throw it in a river and use it as a boat.

 

here is the FAQ

I wanted a light weight option with ways to store it, camp and have a ton of overhead space in addition to loading boards on top. Something soft topper couldn’t deliver on.

No need to secure my stuff as I’ll put thing in the cab if needed.

 

how much are they? how heavy are they?

 

not cheap. Thought it was way cooler till I saw the price… but still neat if it meets your needs.



website says they’re about 50lbs

 

bought mine during the REI sale so I had a good discount taken off. Came out to ~$1,400

 

Please update us on how it works out after the first trip. I like the idea of being able to easily store it when not in use.

 

I’ll keep posting updates

 

For 1400 you can buy a sweet tent that pops up.

Can you flip it upside down and make a bouncy house for the kids?

 

does it billow in the wind at 80mph?

Ok this is pretty sick. I'd go for it if it was sub $1000. how small does it pack down?

 

It will be fine on the highway! Check the image.

 

you can do something else upside down

 

Whoa! that's way smaller than I thought it'd be. Man I wish this was cheaper...

 

Just when you thought you've seen it all in aftermarket accessories.

 

we also have to recognize its UGLY AS FUKKKK but I guess since it's easily removed we ignore that fact?

 

have you seen the SCOUT campers? Lol

 

also, considering my payload on TRD is less than 1,000lbs, I get more load capacity going this route vs fiberglass. Plus, it’s main concept circles around ease of installation by one person, removal and storage size.

 

Well, that is interesting. I work at REI and had not seen these products or the brand. Thanks TacomaWorld for helping me do my job. Wonder when we'll start to see returns on them?
