User Review: Big Agnes Insulated Air Core

Rating: rated 2 of 5 stars
Price Paid: $85

This sleeping bag has a great concept and is very good on paper. But it is not so good out camping. In the first year, I had to return it to get it replaced -- it had 10+ pin holes in it. You could not find them either. You need at least a hot tub to locate the holes, even then it is hard.

Then I got it replaced for free (great customer service at BA!!!!), and received their newest model with diamond rip stop. Yet again another hole. Believe me it was not my carelessness, I always use another pad under it to protect it, and it goes into the slot of my sleeping bag. This time I had to use clothes to keep me warm, it was in the middle of a big trip.

Now I am returning to Therm-a-rest. They are much more reliable, and their ProLite 4, is as lite and as small. But that is my opinion, you can give this pad a shot if you want! Good luck!
