Heavier Than Listed, Very Comfortable

I agree with the previous review about the claimed weight. Mine also came in at 19 oz trail weight which was disappointing to be that far off the mark. On the other hand, 19 oz is still very competitive for an insulated pad in this temperature range and its the same weight as my BA Insulated Q-Core SL. I find the baffle system to be very comfortable and I prefer the 3" thickness over the 4" pads as my elbows do not have the same "hanging" feeling when sleeping on my back. Packability was very good. Finally, I can't say that I've poked any holes in the bottom to test the self adhesive material, but I appreciate the fact that Nemo is trying to address the specific needs of backcountry hunters/fisherman/hikers.

Listed weight not accurate

The 20R lists at 1lb on REI, and 1lb 1oz on Nemo's site. Unfortunately, it weighs in at just over 1lb 3oz ounces on my scale. 2-3 ounces may not seem like a big deal, but on a pad that's supposed to come in at over just a pound, and for the money paid for a lightweight pad, that's a large discrepancy between the spec and the reality.

Amazing stability
8 years ago
Bought this pad to replace yet another one I put holes in. Looking for a quality pad, quiet and doesn't feel like typical air pads at the sides which often feel like your going to roll off. This is super lightweight, feels stable from side to side and good backing. Because of experiencing some very cold June nights in the mountains, I elected to purchase the insulated version. Great pad! Thanks, Nemo team!!

Love this Pad!

I bought this pad before a three week trip because my last pad pooped out. Long story short, I slept great every night. The pad is super comfy, didn't keep my partner awake, and can pack down very neatly. It is a little difficult to pack down to the included drawstring bag though.

Pad weighs in at 19oz, it is worth every ounce. Works great for side sleeping, my body never bottoms out this pad. I am 6'1" and got the 20L and it is the perfect size for me. You can actually feel the heat reflecting back up from this pad. I will never be cold again.
