Summary

Nice change from the old Therm-a-Rest 1 inch pads and perfect for those ultralight guys who want the lightest.

Pros

light weight, perfect for the thru hiker crowd

Cons

not for real long nights

I have used this five nights and at first very impressed but after my last night, which was very cold and long. I wished for my full mattress that is 2.5 inches thick. Still think it would be great for those people concerned about fastpacking and weight.

The great news for long, cold nights is that you can use Klymit's NobleTek Argon gas for insulation and really drive up the insulating capabilities of this pad. The Klymitizer nozzle with full cannister tips the scale at 3.5 oz. Combine Argon's superior insulating capabilities (vs any other option, including down) with this pad and a great sleeping bag and a prolite pad, and you have an ultralight pad system for about 2 pounds...

...that happens to compete with 4 season pads weighing much more.
