Large sized pillow that does it's job well.
I tested this once and will continue bringing it out on my trips this year. Pros: I like the packed size, like a small men's wallet size. It's not very heavy but I don't think it is UL. It is a pretty large pillow. Ive been able to use the valve to "soften" the pillow by letting the air out. Cons: Large size doesn't allow it to fit in my mummy hood. Has that "inflatable" mattress/pillow noise during the night. Slides around on my mat. Good for the price but I wonder if there is better out there - I don't have any other comparisons personally.

Great road trip pillow
We bought 2 of these Pillow X Large and 2 of the smaller Pillow X. They pack so small we keep them in the car at all times for use on road trips. The x shape really does help keep your head on the pillow. The X Large version seems to be made of a softer and quieter material that almost seems to have a bit of stretch so I highly recommend going with the large version for this reason alone. Only negative is the inflation valve seems to be restrictive and takes more force and more breaths than you would think (significantly more resistance than the V seat for example). Fantastic road trip out airplane pillow...Would make a pretty good backpacking pillow, but for car camping we really like the large drifter pillows better than anything else we have tried.
Very light weight
This pillow is very light and easy to inflate, def gives my head and extra lift. Wish it was a little bit more of a lift but it gets the job done. The material is very soft and comfortable and my head doesn’t sweat on it. love the way it folds up and makes for easy storage in my pack. Def taking this when trying to save weight for any long treks when I would rather carry water than a pillow. I might even buy another one to try and stack, it’s so lightweight I wouldn’t notice if I threw a second one in my bag.
Good Space Saver, but slides around when full
Love the idea of the pillow and how compact it is. It is easy to inflate and goes down to a size similar to a deck of cards. My only issue with the pillow is that it slides around on the Klymit Static sleeping pads way too easily. The sleeping pad covers help reduce the slide and so does only filling up the Pillow 2/3 of the way. But hopefully in the next relaunch of the product on side of the pillow can have the grippy plastic coating added. Would easily fix the issue without adding much weight.

Nice and small.
I got this to save weight and was surprised that it was actually comfortable. I have used other cheap blow up pillows before and they popped or where uncomfortable. You can blow it up to be stiff or softer to adjust it to however your liking. This is good for beginners or expert is nice and light and packs away nicely. I do wish it was thick but that's why you can play with how much you inflate it and adjust it. A good night sleep even a few hours makes a HUGE difference. Trust me I know 11B.
Great lightweight pillow
I've used it on plenty of backpacking trips as well as in the field during field exercises. It packs very small and is quite comfortable. I have neck issues and the design of the pillow keeps my head straight throughout the night. I have never woken up with neck pain due to "incorrect sleeping positions". This pillow is also easy to clean. You can adjust firmness by adding or reducing the air inside. Overall, a great camping/backpacking or travel pillow. An ultralight backpacker's dream pillow.

Really nice and small. It's not the most comfortable pillow of all time but it's really nice to throw in the pack and have to sleep with on backpacking trips. More comfortable than I expected to be honest and it's nice that you can just fill it to the amount you desire. Definitely would recommend everyone to keep a few on hand for backpacking trips to save your head and neck at night. So lightweight it doesn't make a difference so might as well always bring jt
