Thermarest rule! Turning concrete into warm comfort and a life time guarantee can't be beaten.
thermarest mattress Sep 12, 2009
we've owned many of these over the years. this is the latest version I've had and continue to find it a great product. I use this in combo with a cot for extended camp stays.

Travel mattress Oct 19, 2008
We've used ours several times and we leave them in the camper all the time. They are easy to inflate, since they only go up an inch or so.

Quite comfy! But, a little bit slippery! Jun 18, 2008
I took this sleeping pad for a test drive on a gravelly slope in Shenendoah National Park and I must say that it was VERY comfortable for my 6'3", 200lb self. It effectively shielded my back from the gravel below and, at the same time, provided a supportive sleeping platform. I am a side-sleeper, which means that my hips, shoulders and elbows bear the brunt of my bodyweight. On a sleeping pad, this usually means that those spots cannot be well-supported due to too much pressure on too small of a location. This pad did very well in this regard!
It is lightweight, compact (for my kind of camping--hardcore backpackers might want the ultra-lightwight model) and quick to inflate. A couple of extra puffs from me, and this thing was ready for a good night's sleep...
The one shortcoming that I found was the slipperiness of the pad. Because I was on a slope, I found that I slid down the pad a little bit over the course of the night. I know that there are ways to beat this problem, I just didn't think of it before I left to go camping on this trip. certainly not a big enough problem for me to regret my purchase.
It is expensive, but I think that this is something that I will have for a long time, and as such, a good investment...
All in all, a great mat!
