The SoloDream Premium airbed from Aerios is securely packed in a sturdy cardboard box that protects it from external influences during transport. The cardboard box has no damage that could affect the product. The product protection can therefore be rated as reliable.
The use of somewhat superfluous packaging material is somewhat negative. In particular, the additional plastic film wrapped around the operating instructions seems unnecessary, as the operating instructions would remain legible even without this protection. Nevertheless, the plastic is used sensibly for the most part to protect the components from dirt during transport and to protect the electronics inside. Overall, the packaging is compact, which reduces the amount of waste.
Opening the packaging reveals that the package contents are complete and all the components announced in the description are present.
The enclosed instructions for use are written in German and English and are clearly organised and easy to understand. The clear pictures make it much easier to use the airbed and make the instructions easy to understand. Customer service contact details are also included.
To summarise, the SoloDream Premium air bed from Aerios makes a very good impression when unpacked.

The SoloDream Premium air bed from Aerios impresses with its impeccable appearance. The simple, beige-coloured design looks timeless and blends easily into different environments, whether in the guest room at home or when used outdoors. The discreet colour scheme gives the air bed a modern and unobtrusive look, which is particularly advantageous for changing environments.
The workmanship of the airbed can be rated as very good . A closer look at the seams and connections reveals a high manufacturing quality, which indicates a long service life for the product. All seams are clean and there are no visible defects or unclean areas that could indicate inferior production. This is a decisive factor, as air beds are often subjected to heavy use and solid workmanship has a significant influence on the longevity of the product.
The SoloDream Premium air bed also impresses in terms of stability. The materials used are not only robust, but also give the bed a high level of strength that allows it to retain its shape and functionality.
There is no specific information on the sustainability of the product, but the use of durable materials indicates that the airbed is highly reusable. After all, a durable product reduces the need for frequent replacement, which in turn helps to conserve resources. The aspect of sustainability is therefore indirectly supported by the longevity of the product.
Overall, the SoloDream Premium airbed from Aerios leaves a very positive impression in terms of workmanship, stability and design.

The set-up time of the SoloDream Premium air bed from Aerios was impressive. The bed was fully inflated and ready for use in around 5 minutes using the integrated USB-C pump. This makes the air bed particularly attractive for spontaneous overnight stays or quick set-up when camping.
Another decisive test criterion was the airtightness of the airbed. After 24 hours, we could not detect any air loss. Both the seams and the valves remained in perfect condition and the airbed retained its original hardness and shape. This emphasises the high quality of the materials used and the good workmanship.
The airbed also shows its best side in terms of comfort. The bed offers excellent support and even pressure distribution, ensuring a high level of comfort even after prolonged use. The quality of sleep on the air bed is almost as good as on a conventional bed.
As far as stability is concerned, the airbed remains very stable even under load. We only noticed a slight loss of air during use, but this was quickly and easily rectified using the integrated pump. This normal phenomenon does not significantly affect the overall stability of the bed and is compensated for by the practical handling of the pump.
Another plus point is the easy storage of the product. The air bed can be deflated quickly and easily using the pump and can be folded up and stowed away to save space, so that it takes up very little room after use. Even after long periods of storage, the air bed was easy to inflate again and ready for immediate use, which emphasises its durability and reliability.
To summarise, the SoloDream Premium air bed from Aerios impressed us with its quick assembly, high level of impermeability, excellent comfort and stable construction, making it a very good product.
