So good my kids stole it!
I had been using a trail lite self inflating pad when I purchased this to have a little more cushion since I am a big guy. The first time I used it I was with my two daughters. They think it is great I spent theh night on the trail-lite. I will have to order another one for me.
Great pad!
For your money this is the best way to go ultralight in comfort. It packs down next to nothing, is very comfortable, and has a high quality fill valve. On the downside, it takes a lot more effort to inflate than say a Thermarest and it will likely puncture more easily. But for the dollar per gram and comfort, you can't beat it.
GREAT PAD
The pad tends to slide on my slick tent bottom. It takes a good while to inflate but has a great cushion of air when you are done. Small, light, and affordable what else can I say.
comfortable
comfortable but need a 5-10 minutes blowing by manpower. The more you blow in, the more comfortable.
Mostly comfortable
Not sure about the durability but comfortable enough. You can blow it up in about 5 minutes without too much dizziness. Packs down small.
