[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently got an inflatable mattress from KLYMIT, and honestly, I’m so impressed! It’s super easy to set up — inflating and deflating takes just a few minutes. I didn’t even need a pump, which surprised me, because I thought it would be complicated. The quality is way better than I expected, and the whole process was quick and effortless. Definitely recommend it! Thank you, Influenster
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It inflated in just a couple of minutes and fit easily inside our tent. Super comfortable and supportive—we slept great! What really impressed me was how fast and easy it was to deflate and repack. It actually fit back into the storage bag without a struggle, which is rare. Lightweight and compact enough to bring along without taking up much space.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This sleeping pad is comfy and keeps you off the cold ground. It creates a barrier that holds the warmth. Thai is perfect for camping or even sleeping on the floor.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Last spring, I took the Klymit Insulated Static V2 Sleeping Pad on a solo camping trip in the Smoky Mountains. It was a game-changer. The pad packed down small, barely taking up space in my backpack, which made the long hike to my campsite a lot easier. When I set it up, it felt sturdy enough to handle the rough, rocky ground, though I made sure to clear any sharp sticks first. That night, the air was chilly, but the pad kept me warm and cozy, letting me sink into it without feeling the cold earth beneath. I woke up refreshed, ready to catch the sunrise over the misty peaks. This pad’s a solid pick for anyone looking for a reliable, comfortable sleep on the trail without extra bulk.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This insulated sleeping pad is comfy! I haven’t been able to use it in the great outdoors yet but I inflated it and slept on it in my house. Let me tell you it was one of the best nights of sleep I’ve had in a long time. And on the ground! Great product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Klymit insulated static v2 is very warm. I used it on a cold night and felt very warm from underneath . It was very convenient for travel and doing my camping trip. I gave it 4 star bc blown up mattress vs a foam is the foam is more comfortable.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Inflates very quickly with a few short puffs; you don’t have to worry about getting winded. It holds air well. Deflating is similarly easy and packs up small. Making it easy to pack and use for tent camping; beats laying on the ground. Overall comfort is what I would expect for a product like this; if you set reasonable expectations you won’t be disappointed. If you are expecting a 5 star hotel night sleep; then camping is likely not for you. Material feels durable but I’d be cautious around sharp rocks or sticks
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the Klymit Insulated Static V2 Sleeping Pad and I’m really impressed. It’s super comfy, soft, and feels very durable. I love how portable it is, which makes it perfect for camping. It packs down easily and doesn’t take up much space, so it’s great to carry along. I’m excited to bring it on my next camping trip—it’s definitely a must-have for comfort outdoors!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Klymit sleep pad is very complicated, Very easy to pack. Very lightweight and portable. I was pleasantly surprised by the comfort of such a small pad. I was able to blow it up by mouth and deflate it without any assistance from a pump. I would 100% recommend it to all my friends and family. It's all around great product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What I Like Most for the price, the Static V Insulated / V2 is excellent. It gives a lot of what you’d want in a backpacking pad—good warmth, enough cushioning, durable build—without breaking your budget or leaving you with a huge pack burden. If you’re doing seasonal / summer-through-early-fall hiking (or layering for cold), it hits a very sweet spot.
