Therm-a-Rest  LuxuryMap Sleeping Pad

Do not be fooled by the "lifetime warranty" that Thermarest once stood for. This once-great company has been gutted by its new corporate owner, Cascade Designs, which has systematically dismantled its customer service to the point of non-existence. My experience is a stark warning to anyone considering a purchase from them. I bought my Thermarest sleeping pad from REI eight years ago, largely because I trusted the brand and its lifetime warranty promise. When the pad recently developed a leak, I thought it would be a straightforward warranty claim. I was wrong. After submitting a warranty form through their website, I waited three weeks without a single response. I tried again, completing the form a second time. Still nothing. I then attempted the old-fashioned method—I tried to call them. I finally found a phone number for Cascade Designs, but it was a dead end. The automated system offered no way to speak to a human and simply looped me back to the useless online warranty form. It's a prime example of a company that has replaced quality customer support with a digital black hole designed to avoid its obligations. This is a complete bait-and-switch. A company built on a reputation for quality they could stand behind has been ruined by corporate ownership focused solely on cutting costs. If you buy a Thermarest product today, be forewarned: if anything goes wrong, you will not be able to take advantage of the warranty. As a result of this infuriating experience, we are filing complaints with the state of Washington against Cascade Designs for false advertising and false warranty representation. I strongly recommend that you avoid all Cascade Designs brands at all costs. You'll thank me later.

Love this product but Africa is destroying it quickly. Didn't realize it came with a pillow top until it hit 110 degrees outside. Needs to be made a bit stronger to survive here. Still recommend it. Just not in Africa! Thermarest please fix this! We don't all hang out in Alaska!

Well worth every penny! I have owned several Thermarest sleeping pads over the years and they are the most comfortable and most reliable sleeping pads I've used. I've tried some other brands and ended up tossing them or returning them because they're just not as good. These self-inflating pads are a bit on the heavy side, but I've even taken them while backpacking to ensure a better night's sleep. And Thermarest stands behind their product! If you take care of it and it gives you a problem, Thermarest will take care of you! If you want comfortable sleep, go with Thermarest!

Best nights sleep I’ve had camping. Very comfortable pad and felt similar in weight and packability to the basic closed cell pad. Took it winter camping down to -16 and was very warm

This is a great compact pad. It truly does self inflate, takes several minutes but I give it two puffs to full inflation.

Novice car tent camping I traveled with a 10 dollar air mattress. My first night I had to pump it five times either from a slow leak or changes from air temp. I stopped by Cabela's and picked this up. It was more than I wanted to spend so I kept the Receipt fully expecting to take it back. Wow this pad is so comfortable I didn't want to get up in the morning. Next to my tent, hands down the most impressive piece of camping gear I ever bought. So comfortable. I am glad I got this. Also glad I got the size large I am a small person and it fit perfect in my tent so If you are a big person def get bigger one than the large.

It’s just me and my once injured back, but unlike the other thermarest mats I sleep on nightly (I need extreme firmness) this mat was too soft. The claim of reinforced areas didn’t work for me.

I am a 60-year-old man in excellent physical condition, but require some cushion when I sleep on the ground after a day of backcountry backpacking. I cut back on other items in my backpack to afford the comfort of my Therma rest pad. It never fails and gives me a great night sleep and keep me warm and comfortable. It also rolls down to a nice size that fits in my 65 L backpack just right. I recommend it highly to anyone who wants to sleep good at night out in the backcountry. Happy trails.

I got the XL size for extra width and this pad worked out great. It’s easy to inflate, super comfortable, and easy to deflate and roll up when it’s time to pack up.

I sleep on this every night. It is my mattress of choice. This is not just for camping. I have been sleeping on this for over 20 years every night. I finally replaced my first one a year or so ago because it developed a bulge in it, but as Thermarest is such a great company, they replaced it for me. All I had to do was send some pictures of the mattress so they could see what was happening. I would have to say they stand by their products. I built a bed frame just for this mattress. Sleep number has nothing over Thermarest and I don't have to listen to some motor inflating it. Yes I have other thermarest mattresses that I use for different sleeping and camping etc. times.
