Is the weight penalty worth the comfort of an air mattress for a week?

Do the words HELL YES mean anything to you?

Boy, I'll second that motion. We brought our first queen-sized,
self-inflating air mattress to OSH three (?) years ago, and whoa -- what a
difference!

Rain? Who cares? I'm 8 inches in the air, well above any moisture that may
leak into the corners of the tent.

Rocks? Who cares? I'm floating on a cloud!

It's been the best addition to our OSH camping gear, ever.

The only problem is that our kids don't have them (they sleep in their own
"wings", on either side of us in our gigantus-humongo tent), and all we hear
is a high-pitched whining sound whenever it's time for bed.

Of course, ear plugs solve that pretty well!
