My pump is under the head of the bed. It's plugged in beside the bed and yes you do need to unplug it before bringing in the slide. As I said before letting the air out is as simple as telling the remote and walking away while it lets the air out. Because our bed size is not a king or a California king our mattress (a cal king) is to long to go under the bed without letting the air out. A pretty easy solution considering the great nights sleep we get.
