This pad is comfortable and great for car camping trips. It takes a fair bit of effort to inflate, but it is well worth it. You can not feel the ground or any small sticks/rocks through the pad. My husband sleeps on his stomach and side and used this pad with no problem.
I love this sleeping pad. I've mainly used it for car camping, but I used it recently for a backpacking trip. I can sleep on my stomach, side, and back on this pad. I also love that it doesn't make sounds when you move on the pad.
Love this pad, very comfy and does not consume a 2 person tent. My girlfriend and I ended up sharing it over the weekend and it fit us both perfectly. I’m 5’8” 190lbs of pure steel muscle and she’s about 5’6” petite
Waiting to use this sleeping pad. Definitely small enough packed up to fit in my ruck or pack for a few day trip in the woods. The R rating is warm enough for most weather I encounter. Size is decent for my build.
The sack pump does not work well and takes some time to inflate. Tried customer service to locate a pump but nothing available. Also noisy when you move around.
Really great pad! Compresses pretty nicely and is very quick to pump up once you get the hang of it.
