The gold stake is for joining the Central Pacific and Union Pacific railroads.

[@rachelmillersolomin7360]

That’s exactly what I wanted to comment!

[@poopoo-cx3tp]

The ALUMINUM "Y"-shaped tent stake is for HARD soil - too hard for the plastic one. The plastic stake is for softer soil, like a lawn, thus it has wider sides. These two stake types are commonly carried by car-campers because you never know where you need to pitch a tent.

[@TheGlampGuru]

Thanks you for adding that in!

[@VAcreeper]

Xmcheck you out! Way to go- thx

[@wowchilee]

I have one in it fills up really great! You just have to fill each side up like five times. And you have to clamp it immediately as soon as you're done making the swish movement or the air runs out. Do not run with it or the air will just circle through and right back out. You need to swish it quickly in front of you and clamp it. Roll the air towards the end and then roll it and do it again

[@TheGlampGuru]

That's a great idea! Thank you!

[@lavatube8060]

..."My instincts were TOTALLY spot on!"..."And of course I looked really awesome doing this"...HAAAAA!! Love your sense of humor, I laughed out loud several times!

[@linnpierce9885]

I loved this, thanks for being so entertaining. I got NO directions with mine. So thanks for the demo as well

[@Funcitystuff]

We were thinking about this for an exchange gift, but it's pretty low to the ground and we'd all need friends to help us out of it! Love how saying "couch pouch" cracks you up every time! LOL

[@rianasari8725]

Oh no, I've bought this for exchange gift.. 😭

[@Sycorax21]

It's a nylon/plastic material on the outside because it's also made to go on the surface of water so an outer most casing of cloth or some sort of breathable fabric wouldn't work. I guess something that could have worked would be to make it ribbed so you can get some air flow to where you make contact with the couch.

[@cadmarbusinesssuite9155]

This was the funniest video and my comic relief. Really, awesome demo.

[@familyfern5139]

Absolutely HILARIOUS! 🤣Great review, wasn’t expecting to be that entertained. Thank you. 👍🏽☺️

[@TheGlampGuru]

Family Fern neither was I!

[@Cliew5473]

Ha haa. You're awesome. When you suddenly turn to face the camera at the beginning, I was dyin'. LOL.

[@TheGlampGuru]

😁

[@hydrazi]

I just.... damn it, man. You are the most entertaining reviewer.

[@TheGlampGuru]

That means more to me than you could imagine! Thank you!

[@giorgiofattore2342]

The nice shiny stick is a tent pegs but for rocky ground!

[@svantrease1]

SMART

[@DeanRendar]

The only thing perfecter is one with a sun cover, a bluetooth speaker playing your favorite playlist, and holding a 3d kite up and running all while lounging cozily with a mixed drink in a thermos, I've done that almost in every environment with a breeze poossible

[@MansterBear]

How does this not have more thumbs up? hilarious video and editing "You don't need to make this weird motion like I'm doing..." haha I love how you have to laugh everytime you say "couch pouch"

[@burnyizland]

Thank you for testing this. I'm trying to figure out how to get my fat, disabled ass comfortable for a pack-in/pack-out camping trip this summer and I can see this is never going to do the job. I think I'm pretty much boned actually. I'm too weak to carry much weight (aside from my own, lol), too immobile AND fat to make things like this work, back's too effed to be getting down to and back up off the ground or try to fool around with a hammock... If this wasn't for a reunion with friends who've been going there since we were 12 I would have given up by now. I'd love to just drink myself to comfortable but I'm too sick to drink booze either! Feck.

[@conniegee8664]

This is both funny and informative!

[@RossiRamblings]

Yellow stake for soft ground, like at the park, push in by hand. Gold stake for harder ground, like when camping, you can hammer it in with a rock or something.

[@TheGlampGuru]

Thank you for being way smarter than me!

[@kanks191]

Just bought one of these from the fair....love it and love your video on it..u had me laughing!!

[@TheGlampGuru]

A carney couch pouch?! I want one.

[@cocking1]

The gold stake is for shanking the person stealing it

[@roadkill236]

Lol

[@kungfusnowbunny]

The BEST review! More please

[@TheGlampGuru]

SageMageFox I’ll try!

[@2timebrainsurgsurvivorrare11]

I love how ya say ya have no idea what’s this but it’s in your directions lol. Also ya don’t have to run around lookin nuts outside....stand just in one spot and do quick back n forth. You do one section close then other close. It’s done in 10 seconds a side. And ya don’t roll it down till both filled. This bag looks ALOT longer than most sold out there which made this probably harder. Ya...don’t run n jump or you can rip it even thinnest person can and you look thinner average not heavy at all like ya joked. Also great way to fill this is to use a fan on ground. It’s done in one second and fills it up soooo much it’s nice that way. You can also put these in the pool....use in the wake with a paddle lol. There’s other brands that do stay filled and don’t deflate as they can hold some up to 350lbs. and ones that have softer velour on them. I just found ya and I love your stuff. New subbie

[@sunrysesetter8647]

Lololol Thanks for that. So fun! Well done!

[@pablow26]

Just run a few meters to fill it up. Honestly doesn't take me more than 20 seconds to inflate. Also, put a large towel over it if lounging with not so many clothes.

[@varuna0714]

I imagine it's much easier to catch air in these things at the beach. I'm just doing some research before purchasing.

[@athleticos99]

i bought this for barely USD $3.30 in malaysia

[@leslieedith9666]

Hey, I have been looking for these things for 2 or 3 years now. I just came home from buying one from Walmart. I wanted it because I have chronic pain from a fractured pelvis, so have trouble sitting or standing for more than 10 mins or so. I think it would be great for camping, or going to an outdoor concert or festival - I rarely go to anything any more because of my problem with sitting. I like the fact that it will fold down so small. My problem? I want to use it in my apartment. I thought I could use it here and out on my balcony. So, I was trying to whip it around to get the air in, and I hit just about everything I own. There just isn't enough room to do it inside. I thought about taking it outside and blowing it up, then bringing it back inside, but I think it would be pretty difficult to get in through the door with it, onto the elevator, then back into my apartment. After all my exertions, I flopped myself down on the couch then noticed my big standing fan.(light bulb!) While I was flopped, I thought I'd look it up online. The first one I watched was a guy using an a/c to blow it up, but said a fan would work fine, too. And it worked great. I think if you were using it outside, you could get one of those pumps that plug into the old cigarette lighter. Sooo, all of that to say that I really liked your video. You are very funny!

[@GeetaGalaway]

use a fan or hair dryer to BLOW in it.

[@DaisyLucy327]

I used a blow dryer on the cool setting and it worked perfectly. Keep in mind, you will need to hold most of the opening closed with the opposite arm, but it will work. blow up both sides.

[@Luin_mix]

Thanks for this hilarious review!

[@rinaparra5518]

You had me laughing my ass off from you!!!! Thank you so much!!! I really needed that right now!

[@TheGlampGuru]

Thanks for making my day! Usually my friends don't even find me that funny.

[@chrisdefronzo8734]

You got the golden stake! Have fun visiting the Oompa Loompa Couch Pouch factory! PS. It’s probably in China.

[@KrazyVideoChick]

This was beyond hilarious. I just bought a Weakpo on Amazon.

[@mikechivy]

How well did it hold the air? I saw on wirecutter it seemed to be better than the others at holding air which is literally all I care about. Seems like you didnt quite get it filled enough to be really tight, but it didnt seem to lose air that fast when you werent jumping on it

[@TheGlampGuru]

I think those plastic inserts that line the two air compartments help with keeping it full. Im not sure if thats a standard design choice that all air loungers have though. I have sat on other ones and this one did hold air longer. I agree that I may have not gotten full enough (lazy!) but it also comes down to how well you roll it after filling and clipping it. I think also as for how well it holds air comes down to how much weight is on it for how long.

[@bombtracks327]

I feel like such a tool trying to fill mine. Wish they came with a top up valve like a regular inflatable as well but I just keep rolling till it's a comfortable 1 person seat. At festivals I chuck a bike light in the middle so I'm visible in the dark plus they look great all lit up!

[@SheilaDuzan]

I travel with a medium sized battery powered fan for a breeze on myself, to irritate the mosquitos 🦟, and I've blown up my two 'air chairs' with it also. Love your throwing a light inside; that would be awesome looking and keep people from tripping/walking into you at night.

[@habituallinestepper8839]

Oh my god I giggled uncontrollably with this review. Thank you Chibo Baggins

[@bethsmith1669]

Mine is an amazing therapy tool for my autism. It is so calming and snug. Because it makes me feel weightless it helps stop my sensory overload. It should be a must have for all autistic kids!(:

[@shereenabusaeedi3754]

Katie Smith just got one for my kiddo with Autism!

[@holgerb.-r.2947]

I got the German version of an alike product. Took me 3 extended efforts to fill it half way. After 15 minutes being sweat soken (beautiful weather, uh) got it figured out finally to fill it at about three quarters. Wrapped the opening up like it said in the manual, and, yes, it got more tightly filled up even. Maybe 80 percent. Tried to sit down - fell to the side. Tried again, same story. The model reviewed above, could be better as the lips spread when you sit down. My model with both lips glued together always makes me fall aside like sitting on a water ball. Not even worth 3 Euros (about 4 Dollars) that we paid for it.

[@DavidGilesColorado]

I got mine from Temu and there were no instructions and thank you for your video!

[@GroundedTactical]

Bro! Epic. Following!

[@jacobtroy416]

Awesome review! I have one of these, and me and my friends call it "the green vagine".

Dude, that comment made my night. :D

[@LeeG81]

The video's funny, but your comment is great! I laughed so hard I'm crying here! :D

Nice video, Totally reminded me of me trying to fill that dam thing with air! LOL

[@evyordanov]

Simply brilliant 🙂

[@TheGlampGuru]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@geregeorge1589]

Just bought one for my brother that comes with a cup holder and a sun shade as well. Called the Relax Bag. Merry Xmas bro. He didnt like it. Merry Xmas. He just is too lazy to figure it out.

[@jenniew1224]

Great video! Very funny.

[@TheGlampGuru]

Thanks! 😃

[@skysohigh844]

Plastic peg is to help keep it from "blowing" away... Aluminium peg is to speed up the "deflating" process.. ~if you know what I mean..

[@naylinsithu]

I need to get one

[@ellencanapary1733]

You are very funny! I enjoyed the video as I am trying to figure out how to blow up my new blow up couch.

[@TheGlampGuru]

Thanks for watching, good luck looking awesome while blowing it up!

[@Reragi]

I am watching this while laying down on an inflatable couch. Very meta right there

[@TheGlampGuru]

mind blown....

[@monjul131]

Lmao same

[@fhmchris6553]

thanks for making a review entertaining lol

[@UnboxWarehouse]

Man your good. I like this.

[@TheGlampGuru]

Thank you! Super nice of you!

[@Kellendras1]

This was excellent

[@junw4580]

do you want to the same one?the free product,please contact me,[e-mail]

[@jaytrg]

The most fun thing about this is that it floats like a boat. I took it to a spring once lol

[@bobbyharper8710]

I would use the metal stake to make a hole in hard ground for the plastic stake.

[@meowfromthecat2u]

Thanks for the morning giggle hehehhe!

[@TheGlampGuru]

Our pleasure!

[@jillliankp]

Dude you should do a wish glaming haul and see if you can get any goodies ? Im about to order a bunch of camping stuff and see what happens

[@TheGlampGuru]

I have no idea what that means lol

[@jillliankp]

The Glamp Guru theres like a chinese/overseas marketplace app called wish, and i mispelled **glamping as glaming

[@jenrodriguez8786]

Hi! How long after laying on it did your lounger lose air?

[@TheGlampGuru]

Depends...I would say about 25-30 minutes.

[@mrryan7475]

How long do they stay inflated? Could you sleep on one overnight?

[@hotgusta]

It starts to deflate after a certain amount of time?!? Dang it man. Wtf does that mean lol

[@TheGlampGuru]

Since the "couch pouch" isn't 100% air tight, you notice it deflate a little over time under the weight of your body. You may need to refill it during use. Think of it as alarm to get a little exercise if you're as lazy as me!

[@bestgifts6156]

gold stake is for when dracula came to steal your inflatable bed when he is tired of the coffin.

[@sophiemcinnes8554]

I have one of these how should I repair a small hole ?

[@TheGlampGuru]

I feel you like you can buy a patch kit from any outdoors store!

[@GoodBetterBest18]

Plug it with the gold stake?!?!

[@carmenmartinez2882]

Use a tent repair kit.

[@christchickconversations]

Lol I enjoyed the commentary

[@TheGlampGuru]

Thank you! I appreciate you!

[@lovebunnykaz]

If you live in England, this won't be a problem!

[@vickidonnelly5195]

Don't quote me on this, but I think the other stake is just a more serious stake for like harder ground and such.

[@TheGlampGuru]

Yeah that makes a lot of sense! I knew someone would school me!

[@pedrozamariq]

It was so funny 😂

[@strongtombomb2164]

Youre probably a faster runner than me for sure.

Funny and useful review that has helped me decide to never, ever buy one of these things!

[@toxicturtle2819]

Extra stake

[@Beautyinthebreakdown.]

But you didn't roll and clip.. I don't get it.

[@sophiefilo16]

He did... 2:23

[@rickmoore52]

I was gifted one of these things. Learned to hate it in short order. First tried filling it up to use it in the house. No luck getting enough air in it because with furniture in a normal sized room there just isn't enough space to move around to collect air. Ended up using a hair dryer to blow air in it. Then tried sleeping on it. No go. It wasn't comfortable position for sleeping, maybe just lounging. And I couldn't change my position. I was locked in place and it was hard to get out. Weird. Then I tried filling it with air outside. It was just too much physical effort to make it worth my while. Maybe it was designed for twenty somethings that have nothing better to do. Definitely a two thumbs down vote from me. I would never pay money for another useless product made out of petroleum and is not biodegradable.

[@karosicreativediy5610]

Hmmmm friends with benefits. Lol

[@TheGlampGuru]

hmmmmm

[@amyld5475]

It's pouch couch not couch pouch

[@TheGlampGuru]

Sure!

[@Noah1985HA]

I foubd mine deflated after even like 30 min to maybe 1 hr.. if they can make them not deflate then I would be all over them

[@wowchilee]

You didn't put enough air in it.

[@TheGlampGuru]

Truth!

[@theboss-vr1jj]

the second stick is a spare,.

[@skyerobbens4997]

I bought this it keeps going down

[@TheGlampGuru]

no sh*t...i still have mine and it keeps air but overall it does need to be inflated quite a bit. Based on weight and how well you seal those two compartments. Its also a plastic couch with thin walls, maybe check to see if you have a hole?

[@azho6742]

Not worth it

[@TheGlampGuru]

Neither is pizza after drinking all night but man is it good...am I right?!!!

[@brandonmohammed2234]

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. John 3:16-17 Jesus is The Son of God who was sent to the earth from Heaven to die on the Cross to save humans from burning in hell FOREVER. He took the punishment who us who deserve to be punished. So since He died and Rose again, we can now be free from hell and He offers us everlasting life meaning to live FOREVER with Him in Heaven or the New Earth. All we have to do to receive this free Gift is to believe in Jesus, believe in that He died for yours sins and believe that He Resurrected (came back to Life) on the third day. Once you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth that Jesus is LORD you will be saved. (Saved from hell). He is coming soon, tomorrow is not a promise so please dont waste time, put your faith in Jesus while there is still time, so you wont have any regrets. Jesus the Only Way, the Truth, and the Life. Once you have Jesus you have everything you need. You have freedom with Jesus. Besides you can see literally see nearly everything the Bible talks about comes through so why doubt when you can see the Truth unfolding in front of our eyes. If you want to know anything at all regarding Jesus you can ask. God Loves you, Jesus Loves you. t.co/Z3z5QmW3PE Jesus has changed my life, He answered my prayers, i had been praying for years so I can get baptized and He answered that prayer when the time was right. Both my parent use to drink alot and plus my dad use to smoke cigarettes and I use to suffer because of that my dad has also fall away from his faith at that time but Jesus sent one of His followers to my dads work and then he use to talk to my dad about His life back together with Jesus to build a relationship with Him and that same year around Christmas a bit after my dad got sick and the follower of Jesus prayed for my dad to get better and he did, but while he was sick he did not smoke or drink and even after that he never drink or smoke again Jesus has freed him from that trap which he was in since he was a teenager. My dad has built his relationship with Jesus and now is free of his past and lives for Jesus. After I got baptized I still was not close enough to Jesus but after a few months the Holy Spirit who is living inside me found a way to make me take my relationship with Jesus and I did. Later on I had my final exams and I barely studied, i told Jesus that He is my priority and it my grades doesnt matter however I had faith in that i would pass because of Jesus and when I got result o saw He did not let me down and I pass all my subjects only because of Him. A time I was praying for a job and the week after in church a opportunity came by. I also applied online for jobs and ask my uncle for help in finding one and one day i kneeled down and prayed and within a few minutes to an hour i got a call from my uncle saying he got me an interview and later that day i got a call from one i applied online. The next week i prayed on my knees again to get the job that i applied online for and about 5 in the evening i got a call saying i got that job. Jesus has even given me thing that i didnt praying for because He knows my heart. Everytime i had fallen away (i still do) He always brings me back to Him. He has never failed me and never will. Jesus said if we ask for anything in His Name we will get it. If you wish to join a Whatsapp Group Bible Group, anyone is free to join. Please let me know so I will send the link for you

This was an awful review. I saw and used one of these for the first time not to long ago and was amazed by it. It was so simple. You did an awful job of selling it.

[@TheGlampGuru]

The Loobis no worries! All good Loob. I wasn't trying to sell it, just giving my opinion on it.

[@chef_tina]

The Loobis dude he's not trying to sell it. He was just trying to figure the dang thing out and he was quite funny doing it too. Don't be such a deflated couch pouch pooper 😂😂
