No Instructions-Bad Customer-Support-Shady Company
No, I do not recommend this product
The pad's ok, but it doesn't come with instructions. Deflating by rolling the air out while holding on the valve open, like customer support told me, takes about 10 minutes of balling the thing up while crushing it into a giant ball. Alps Mountaineering customer support said I should by the $50 pump to deflate it properly. No information on how to deflate the thing is made a available, just "you can buy a $50 pump, thank you". Hiding the the most time consuming, ungainly, inefficient part of using the product, then telling me to spend more money to make it work, feels intentionally misleading and kind of shady.

Mystery Pad
Yes , I recommend this product
Can't find any reviews anywhere for this, but had it blown up for a week and didn't lose any air. Super comfy mostly quiet. Can't talk about if its actually a R8 rated pad though. But for the price its worth the risk even if it ends up just being a 4-5.

Sahara 4” sleeping pad
I’ve used several different sleeping pads and this one is the best! Was comfortable , quiet and easy to inflate with the storage bag. I would recommend to a friend.

Nights became a nightmare
No, I do not recommend this product
Worst experience of my life. Pad is brand new and brought it to Yosemite for a 5 day hike along some high alpine areas. I've had to re inflate the pad every 1 and a half hours for the last 4 nights. Just wasted 3 hours last morning trying to find a leak but there isn't. the problem is how the pad is made. never buy anything from this brand. Will return it as soon as I get back to San Diego. This pad ruined my trip.
