I have your standard home hospital bed.  My foam mattress is approximately 6 inches thick and my alternating air mattress when fully inflated seems to be about 5"-6" thick.  I think the air mattress that I have must be "one size fits all" because it is a lot longer than my bed.  I was continually having troubles with the alternating air mattress that was prescribed for me due to blowouts.  I found out that the air mattress that they were giving me was for smaller people and I needed a bigger one.  The one I have now is for people up to 330 pounds and boy what a difference.
