Comments about Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Pump Sack:

I first used this on a 10-day river kayak camping trip. It was pretty muddy so I didn't want to put my NeoAir on the ground to inflate it, so I tried to use this pump sack by kneeling by the door of my backpacking tent to fill the NeoAir. I couldn't flare out the bag enough to get a good supply of air in it to fill the bag and it wouldn't stay on the valve. I rued the day I bought this and used it to fill the pad about half full, and then inflated the rest by mouth. After the river, I went camping at full campgrounds in Utah national parks. I put the NeoAir on the picnic table and stood up to use the Pump Sack. Voila! It inflated in about 2 1/2 air fills and I fell in love with this. You just need more room to use it effectively. I never use the drawstring. I just flare to fill with air and fold it down quickly while pressing down to fill the pad. I can breathe!!

Comments about Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Pump Sack:

We've been using the XL Neolite sleeping pads for about 3 years and absolutley love them. The only down side to the pads were blowing them up after hiking all day - but still sleeping on the pads were worth blowing them up manually. With this new stuff sack you can blow up the pads by simply connecting the sack to the pad via a silicone opening at the bottom of the sack, open the sack to the air and close it quickly to trap as much air into the sack as you can. Don't bother with the string - it's there for versitility of the sack when not using it to blow up the pads - simply fold over the open end of the stuff sack and lean in to it to blow up the pad. We use the sack for hanging food when we are in bear country an for a variety of other puposes so it's not just for blowing up the pads. Glad we found this - it's one more product to add multiple functionality to everything we carry.

Comments about Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Pump Sack:

I've actually been using this with my Big Agnes pad, which while lighter than the venerable self-inflating Thermarest, is far thicker than, say, a NeoAir and therefore a huge pain to blow up.

After examining the nozzle fit, I picked this up as a way to save my lungs and cut down on filling the pad up with moist air. The fitting is just a stretchy plastic hole in the bottom, so any inflatable pad with a similar-sized nozzle should work. It's only slightly tighter on Big Agnes valves.

There's a trick to making the drawstring hold air: after you cinch the string, roll the opening over in your hand a bit and grip the roll in your palm. This doesn't take up much of the fabric and makes a decent seal.

I can get my 78" Big Agnes fully inflated in about 5 bags, it beats the HECK out of using my lungs, and it should keep the insides of the bag nice and dry. For that alone I think this is worth it. The few drawbacks? Lack of a stopper for the nozzle means it's not really useful as a pack liner, and the fabric could surely be made lighter. Still, it's a handy companion to most inflatable pads.

Comments about Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Pump Sack:

i use a 35L backpack for my backpacking trips, and i always bring my neoair mattress. i have tried this and it does work as a seat, it works great as a pack liner, and i can inflate my regular neoair fully in three bag fills of air. i originally bought it for keeping moisture out of my neoair all season. i wouldn't say it fills it with air any faster than with normal blowing, but at least im not light headed after filling it up.

Best Uses

Ultralight backpacking

Comments about Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Pump Sack:

In ultralight backpacking, every item should ideally have at least two uses. With my ultralight, high volume pack I don't use a compression sack for my sleeping bag. I usually just stuff my bag into a garbage sack at the bottom of my pack. This works great to fill out the pack and distribute the weight evenly. To inflate my NeoAir, I would poke a hole in the bottom corner of the garbage sack and attach it with some cord to the valve. This doesn't always work very well. Finally, Cascade Designs has come up with the exact product I've been looking for! A large volume silnylon sack that can be used to store my sleeping bag and inflate my NeoAir. It's not a dry sack and isn't 100% waterproof, but at only 2.7 oz. it does the exact two things I need it to do. Thank you for making this product!

Comments about Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Pump Sack:

Its a huge single purpose 3+ oz stuff sack with a draw string closure and a hole in one end for the valve. By the time you get the draw string closed you maybe have 40% of its potential volume left, as you depress on the sack almost as much air leaks out of the draw string closure as goes into the mattress. I was able to inflate the mattress just as fast by blowing it up manually. Can you use it as a pillow? pack liner or... NO silly head, it has a hole in it and won't hold air in or water out. The material is way heavier than it needs to be, the closure should be an air-tight roll-top like a dry bag, and of course a way to close-off the valve hole when not in use. The reason you really want a pump for these types of mattresses is so that you don't put a bunch of moisture into the mattress via your breath (mold, weight issues etc). If you don't mind the weight, bulk and mono functionality, it will inflate your NeoAir whilst limiting moisture input.
