An airbed is having a built-in pump. The pump is removably received within a receptacle. When the pump is placed in the receptacle, an outlet port for the pump is in fluid communication with a valve. The valve is operated via a solenoid. In an embodiment, the valve is opened while the pump is operating to inflate the airbed. The valve is also opened to deflate the airbed. In accordance with an embodiment, the pump utilizes a dual fan configuration, having two sets of fan blades on opposite sides of a disc. Air inlets are provided for the fan housing of the pump on both the top and the bottom so that each set of blades may draw air into the pump.
