(2-Pack) Shrunks Inflatable Bed Rail for Toddlers | Travel Bed Rail for Kids, Adults, and Elderly | Portable Toddler Bed Bumpers | Blow Up Bed Guard Rail for Twin, Full, Queen, King Size Beds

I bought this for an unorthodox purpose, and it worked very well for me. Since my son was born five months ago I nap with him in my bed, and before I was putting a pillow on the other side of the bed in case he rolls over. Now he's beginning to actually roll over, so I was afraid a pillow wouldn't be enough to stop him from rolling over. I do hold on to his feet when we nap and to date I have never changed position while sleeping with him (I have a very sore arm to show for that, but he loves sleeping in the big bed with me and gets cranky if I change the schedule), but he now reaches over to the pillow and I was afraid he might pull it over himself. I didn't want a rail that attaches to the bed because I have a platform bed with wood slats and a very thick pillow top bed. We have almost no space left in the room, and there was no space to have a rail that folds down. I also didn't want to risk ripping the mattress with a rail that slides underneath, and since that side is my husband's side we can't have the rail in permanently. I bought this thinking it would be great because we could deflate it when not in use. When I opened it, it has a pretty strong vinyl smell, but I actually like that smell. It reminds me of some old items from years ago, though I can't remember what they were. To me it seems like an 80s smell, not a strong chemical smell. It comes with a pump to inflate it, but it's a manual pump, not an electric one. I thought it would be difficult to inflate it, but it's actually not. I am in horrible shape, have asthma, and was able to inflate it with the pump using my hand in about three minutes. It really blows a lot of air into it. Once I inflated it, I put it on top of the sheets to test it and I found I couldn't move it. I can't put it under the sheets because the sheets barely fit on the mattress as it is due to the thick mattress, plus I also have straps along the bottom of the mattress to keep the sheets from slipping. I was not going to be lifting the mattress every day just to put this under the sheet for the 3 or 4 hours we nap. It's quite long, and extends about 2/3 of the length of the mattress. I used it for the first time today (11/4/13), and my son noticed it right away. He rolled towards it and pushed on it a bit, but it didn't move. He seemed to like the texture of it. I put most of it under the sheet and blanket (I never put the sheet and blanket all the way up to where my son can grab it just in case) on one side of the bed, and even when I pushed against it it wouldn't move. We slept just fine; once the novelty wore off he turned back to me and fell asleep looking at me the way he always does. I love that I can deflate it and put it in the carry bag that comes with it, though for now I just stand it in the corner. It seems very strong, and it even came with two repair patches just in case. The instructions weren't very clear though; there are two tubes sticking out of the pump, a red one and a blue one. The blue one in my pump blows out air, and I'm guessing the red one sucks air in (there's a rubber piece in the valve that helps prevent air from escaping while you close the valve) to deflate. It would have been nice if the instructions had mentioned that so I didn't waste time trying to figure out how to connect it. There are also two different tips to put on the hose that connects to the pump; I found the pointy one didn't work well and only used the one that fits in the valve. Overall a great purchase and it works for me!

So, I purchased the 2 pack of travel bed rails for my LO's (little one) bed. After moving to a "big kid bed" LO had fallen out of bed a few times, and has a gap between the bed and the adjacent wall (don't ask me how, but LO has gotten stuck in the gap). Anyways, the product worked great for a bit, then wouldn't hold air. I finally got around to contacting the company and they were AMAZING!! They followed up with me several times (by both phone and email) - and good thing too, as several emails had wound up in my junk folder! They were helpful, persistent (in a good way) and personable. Looong story short, they sent me a new pair of bed rails free of charge! Now LO stays put in bed, and occasionally uses the bed rail as a pillow (when sleeping sideways in the bed). Right now they are set up in LO's room, but I plan to take them with us on our next trip (provided there's a bed for LO). Thus far they've been holding up just fine to normal wear and tear from a restless sleeper.I ALSO own the toddler travel bed which is also AMAZING!! We've put it in our luggage and flown across the country with it! Once we're at our destination, we unpack, blow it up and voila!, it's a bed! It's rather light (not as light as the bed rails of course), and really doesn't take up nearly as much luggage space as you'd think. Sadly, it's nearly time to upgrade to the twin size which i'm sure will be slightly larger, but then, so is my kid!A word on inflation/deflation - soooo easy!! I use the electric pump from the mattress to inflate/deflate both the mattress and/or the bed rails and it literally takes seconds. With the mattress, make sure you inflate in the order written on the mattress to make it simpler to put the sheet on. And for deflation, takes seconds with pump to deflate, then simply roll it up so that you END rolling at the valve end. The bag that it comes in is roomy enough to hold not only the mattress and pump, but also some sheets, a baby monitor, a sound machine and a smaller stuffed animal or two (as long as you get a majority of the air out of the mattress). All that being said, the bag does not seem over-sized.I can't tell you how much I love these products - they make traveling with kids so much easier!! Between that and the amazing customer service, I have to say that this company is really doing things right!! Love Love Love!!

I purchased these a while ago but finally got to use them on a recent trip where we were staying at a couple hotels with our 3 year old. I am really paranoid about her rolling out of a real bed since she's still in her toddler bed at home, and putting pillows around her just didn't fly for me. She's what I would call a typically active sleeper, she's not doing karate in her sleep or anything but she does roll around throughout the night. Anyways, when we got to our first hotel I slept next to her, and only needed to inflate one for her side. I opened the box and thought, oh no I forgot a pump for these, and then I blew them up with my mouth...DUH the pump is INSIDE at the bottom of the box. Yikes. Well, I was able to easily inflate them with my mouth by the way in case you're in a pinch hahah but they do come with a step air pump. They have a little non slip strip at the bottom which I tested out after I placed it under the fitted sheet and it seemed to work OK. If you are kicking it and pushing it a lot throughout the night though I could see it moving out of place...but thankfully that did not happen to us. Even so I put pillows and cushions at the floor of the bed just in case because I am crazy ;)With that being said, it stayed inflated all throughout the night and into the morning. The 2nd time we used it, it worked the same, no issues. I am really happy with them so far. It's a great portable solution and easy to pack up and travel with. Hopefully they last some time without any problems, and yes they did come with a patch to use just in case.
