Modern nomads long ago discovered the airbed. But now when it's time to decamp, you can simply deflate this inflatable Chesterfield sofa designed by Jeroen van de Kant and pack it up into its specially designed carrying trolley for easy transport...
In addition to the loveseat shown here, the Chesterfield comes in 1- and three-seater versions. All are made from heavy-duty PVC with a vinyl bottom that makes them suitable for indoor or outdoor use. The sofas come with an electric pump and inflate or deflate in just five minutes.

Oh boy... This should be good.
Yeah...repost the $600 inflatable sofa, watch heads explode.
I saw inflatable furniture in Amsterdam over 10 years ago. It was somewhat popular with college age kids, but the stuff I saw was much cheaper than this. It also seemed like it was a fad, so I'm surprised to see this.
Besides, the "heavy-duty" vinyl is stll no match for a cat with claws.

AT: Considering reposts have become such an incredibly PERVASIVE problem on the site, maybe you should consider the possibility that you've over expanded to too many cities, too many bloggers. AT was SO MUCH BETTER when it was just the one site, just the one city, just the one small group of editors.
we are not pleased with re-posts.
I'm new enough to the site that I haven't seen this posted on here. I've seen it in my daily business life before and every time I have the same thought:
Great for an outdoor party setting. Like a modern Gatsby with those strewn across the lawn instead of actual velvet furniture. That way if they end up in the pool or getting rained on they don't get ruined.
That being said - the potential for popping makes these worth considerably less than $600 to me.

complain schmomplain! I´ve been reading AT for a few months now and haven't seen this before. And so what if something pops up again every now and then? With the amount of new posts every day, there is no way I can read through every single one. Now get back to work, those of you who still have a job ;-)
For those of you who say you're new and haven't seen this post before, it was posted just LAST WEEK.
IMHO something being reposted after a number of months = OK. But posted within a week = NOT OK
AT: maybe you could tell your posters that they are required to read (or at least skim) all posts, period. Or at the very least, do a search of the blog BEFORE they repost an article for the fifth time in a month!
@ Harpa: Thing is, it's not like this happened over the course of a few months. This same exact product was posted four days ago on AT Boston.
Everyone hated this couch last week...we haven't warmed up to it since then!
I agree that when you see something that was posted months ago that it's fine, but apparently they aren't reading their own website's posts from a couple days ago.
I guess my day job has been too busy for me to come onto here as often as I used to, but I never did see this post the first time, nor did I see some other one that got re-posted recently. I do agree that all the city sites should look at each other's work more often, but I was happy to see this post.
Look whiners,
Even though it was posted last week. I don't have the time to go through everything everyday, so I don't mind re-posts. I have yet to hit one and if I did, probably reviewed it again for something I could have missed before. There is so much to see on this site. Can we have a little flexibility here?
Thank you.
If there were fewer redundant posts, there would be fewer posts total, thus making it easier to keep up with all the posts on AT.
For those of you commenting that reposts are fine because there's so much posted to the site that it's easy to not see it all the first time around, if there weren't so many reposts, there wouldn't be SO MUCH posted in the first place.
As it is, the overabundance of reposts are making perusing AT a waste of my time.
I can see that everyone doesn't have the time to go through all the posts on all the cities' sites, but if I'm not mistaken, BOTH inflatables stories were featured on the main page on their respective days. Not only are the city bloggers not reading the other cities, but the MAIN editors aren't reading their own stuff!
Methinks AT could use some clutter-busting.
This was overpriced petroleum-based future-landfill crap last week...
...and it's still overpriced petroleum-based future-landfill crap this week.
Gee - Let's post it next week and see what it turns into?
Oh no! A repost!
You must try to bravely cllick and move on, doing your best not to weep as you desperately try to convince yourself that your day has not been ruined...
No, you're right to be upset, seriously.
If I were you, I'd ask for my money back.
Why is it that reposts are (almost) always things that nobody liked?
AT, I LOVE how you post the SAME UGLY THINGS over and over again. If I hadn't seen it last week, I might have forgotten about how I'll NEVER want to buy one of these.
Thank you SO much.
