Definite upgrade pad for me
This will be my choice for the next backpacking trip, packs down almost half the size of my much older pad and is 5” wider, 10” longer with similar R value and weighs 1 oz less! Able to inflate fairly quickly with included pump sack (new to me) after 6-7 ‘trap and roll downs’. Sleep was comfortable and did not feel hot or cold… I sleep cold, so this was a plus for me. Lastly, I appreciate all the details printed on the carrying sack to know exactly what I’m pulling out of my camping bin!
very nice
I’ve used blow up pads before but this one is the best I’ve used. No deflation overnight and it truly does insulate very effectively. I sleep in a bivvy with just this pad under me and I don’t get cold at all. That’s not real cold camping - low 40’s/high 30’s so far - but I am confident in this thing. It packs pretty small and is very light for how comfy it is.
