Light and warm, the Exped Synmat Basic 7.5 sleeping pad is the less expensive cousin to the Synmat Pump version. The integrated pump has been removed as well as the internal baffles. Mats can be inflated by mouth. For easier inflation one of two Exped accessories are recommended, the Pillow Pump or Mini Pump.

I purchased two of these and they are wonderful. My boyfriend and I used them on a recent camping trip and they were easy to inflate and very comfortable to sleep on. We used the Schnozzle and the 20 Liter Shrink bag to inflate both bags. Inflation was a breeze and both pads (Large and Medium) took 2.5-3 bag fulls of air to inflate. The size medium packs down to about the size of a Nalgene water bottle and is very light weight. Bonus, the stuff sac for the pad can be packed with clothes to be used for a pillow. The entire system was awesome, and the only drawback was the price.
