If you are now starting to feel the ground below, this means that a huge amount of air has already been taken away.

Don’t stop exerting pressure on the bed while the pump continues to remove the air out of it. Once the double air bed is fully deflated, fold and roll the air bed. Pack it tightly and place it in the bed’s carry bag. Never forget to make sure that the bed is dry and clean before doing this.
