blow-up bed

Pumped-up sleeping surface

A blow-up bed is an inflatable mattress, typically made of vinyl or PVC, that can be deflated and stored compactly when not in use.

Also called an air bed or air mattress.

Blow-up beds serve as temporary sleeping surfaces for guests or camping: We keep a blow-up bed in the closet for when friends stay over.
