Comments about Therm-a-Rest ProLite Plus Sleeping Pad:
I used this pad for the first time up the Dowewallips in cold January. The pad is very comfortable for not necesarrily being that thick. I was concerned that it would not keep me warm enough while sleeping in 15-20 degrees but my concerns vanished when I slept soundly all night long. I purchased the wider and longer pad as I am a bigger guy. 6'3" 220 lbs. I dont roll my pad I fold it and it fits inside my pack just fine. I didnt experience any slipping but I slept on totally flat surfaces so I really cant comment on that aspect. As there are lighter pads out ther this one is definitely light enough for me. Get out there!

Comments about Therm-a-Rest ProLite Plus Sleeping Pad:
Definitely buy the stuff sack, worth every dollar. I am 6'0 and this fits me great, keeps me very warm. Have used both inside and underneath my sleeping bag depending on weather. Be sure to store unrolled with the valve open. Best sleeping pad I have ever used.

Comments about Therm-a-Rest ProLite Plus Sleeping Pad:
I bought two of these mats because they were comfortable, very insulating, light, small and it said that they a lifetime guaranty right there on the label. Unfortunately both were loosing air very quickly after less than 5 weekend camping trips. And leaks are not covered in the guaranty. I tried to patch the one where i actually found the hole, but as it was on the seam the patch wouldn't hold. So if you can buy a new one every few trips, i would suggest you didn't go for this mat.

Comments about Therm-a-Rest ProLite Plus Sleeping Pad:
I purchased this last year for use in conjuction with a Hennessey Hammock / double bottom unit. I've used "it" both on the ground and above ground - meaning with a hammock and with tarps and tents.
The pad being inflatable, means it's also adjustable for firmness. I returned another pad to get this one, and have used "it" in every season and weather condition.
It's an excellent product, and comfortable as well. I'm actually about to purchse a shorter version to mate with a new big agnes sleeping bag I recently purchased. My first one is intentionally longer. The next one will be the right fit for the bag.
You've everything to gain - even though the weight is a little more than some pads. This one is a winner and a keeper.
I purchase a lot of equipment, so I right a lot of reviews on this site. As always, this is what I say:
"I like my equipment to be hard working, and not hardly working!" This one is a hard working and reliable pad. Thanks REI!!!

Comments about Therm-a-Rest ProLite Plus Sleeping Pad:
This pad is great. I upgraded from a similar sized pad which did not fold before rolling, so it's packed size was about twice the length. This fits nicely in my pack and I now have extra room, much needed for winter backpacking. Unfortunately I bought the small first, then a few weeks later purchased the regular. Do yourself a favor and carry the extra 7oz and 0.8" wider roll with the large - it beats trying to stuff clothes or your pack under your legs to keep warm in the winter. I'll still use the small one in warmer weather however. By the way, I'm glad I got the 2011 version in red, the new oragne is the ugliest thing ever...but most probably won't care.

Comments about Therm-a-Rest ProLite Plus Sleeping Pad:
Just returned my third Prolite Plus (or Prolite 4 as they used to be called...). I used those pads for a wide range of activities, from climbing Rainier, to backpacking on the WA coast, to car camping on the Colorado River. I never found the pad to be cold, even at 10F (never used a foam pad underneath, either). It worked great with the chair kit, and the couples kit. It fit well in an internal frame pack, even in a 32L ski pack. However, all three pads sprang leaks somehow. I never knew how. I also found that when inflated fully, the center was slightly higher than the edges, and I would tend to slide or roll of the sides while sleeping. slightly deflating the pad to account for the slide/roll factor, I found that I sometimes bottomed out, especially when sleeping on my side (it is only 1.5" thick...). Overall, a reasonably comfortable, reasonably durable, reasonably small and light pad.

Comments about Therm-a-Rest ProLite Plus Sleeping Pad:
This is a great sleeping pad. It inflates easily (though you're going to wanna start the process right when you set up camp since it takes a little while to inflate itself) and packs away easy as well. The only negative I can think of is that it packs a little large but then again, you're getting a very comfortable pad that will work for 4 seasons so the balancing act falls in its favor.
