After a few problems with our air bed (mainly loss of air in the bed) I have just been eyeing up the Dozer self inflating airbeds found here http://www.alpkit.com/sleeping-mats/, the only problem stopping me from buying them is that my wife and I like to cuddle in bed and do not want to be seperated by individual mats. Is there anyway of joing them ? Does anyone have any experience of these mats?

Also the same company are doing a deal here http://www.alpkit.com/shop/cart.php?target=product&product_id=16546&category_id=253 I am completely confused now? the reviews are stonking for these air mats but I just don;t know what to do?

Advice would be greatly received here

We've got Fat Airics which are the predecessor of the Dozers and they are BRILLIANT!

To join them together you can get connectors, therm-a-rest here http://www.cascadedesigns.com/therm-a-r ... it/product they are just a figure of 8 strap that you could prob. make from a webbing strap.

We had this problem the first time we used our mats but it was solved by using a fitted bed sheet which held them together nicely. Also looks rather glam

We have a double SIM, but we did fit a fitted sheet over it this time and liked it. We plan to put a few stitches in the fitted sheet to make it a tighter fit

Fat Airics do tend to slip about and we use a travel rug underneath and fleeces on top to stop the sleeping bags edging off. Great airbeds! Perfect insulation and comfort = good night's sleep
