A Guide to the Walmart Air Mattress Return Policy

What happens if you are not satisfied with your Walmart purchases? Can you return an opened air mattress to Walmart? The retail giant has a standard policy that allows customers to return some faulty or unwanted items—including air mattresses—for a refund or exchange.

Although most retailers promise an easy return process, it is not always the case. You can end up going back and forth with the customer support team and maybe give up.

Don’t let this happen—, and we will help you skip the lengthy procedures by sending your return request for you.

What Is Walmart’s Return Policy on Air Mattresses?

The Walmart return policy allows returns or exchanges of eligible items within 90 days of the purchase date. You will need the original product packaging, receipt, and any accessories that came with the item.

Whether you’ll get an exchange or a refund for a faulty air mattress depends on the product’s condition. For opened or used air mattresses, you can only get an exchange for a similar or the same product. If the product is new or unused, you can get a full refund.
