Can I overinflate my air mattress?

If you are thinking about buying an air mattress, you're probably wondering about durability. After all, air mattresses are a lot like a balloon, right? Well, for one thing, a quality adjustable air mattress cannot be overinflated. These air mattress beds have automatic shutoff valves that sense when the air chamber is full and will cut off the flow of air. This keeps the air mattress from excess stress caused by overinflation.
