Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"The Pacific Outdoor Equipment InsulMat Hyper-Lite Women's Sleeping Pad combines the light weight and high thermal values of closed-cell foam with the comfort of open-cell, self-inflating mats. P.O.E placed the self-inflating insert at the hip and shoulder area for support where it really counts. Then they wrapped the insert in a highly insulative closed-cell foam body for warmth from head to toe. Specifically for women, this Hyper-Lite has extra supportive dot-cut foam in the hip area, so say goodbye to hard ground jabbing at your bones. While the valve placement might look strange, it's actually the result of careful designing. At the top of the head, the valve stays out of the way when you roll over, and it also integrates more efficiently with the open-cell insert."

From REI:
"Get the best of both worlds with this comfortable sleeping pad—soft inflatable cushion and lightweight, high R-value closed-cell foam. This three-season pad is designed for weight-conscious trekkers, climbers and backpackers trying to trim ounces from their pack's load. Shoulder and hip areas self-inflate for added comfort; tough diamond-ripstop nylon shell protects against abrasion, punctures and tears. Closed-cell foam at foot and head areas offers reliable warmth with minimum weight. DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish causes water to bead up and roll off. Anti-fungal treatment prevents fungus and bacteria from growing inside your pad. Stuff sack, VELCRO® brand closure strap, and repair kit included."

From Massey's:

"The InsulMat Hyper-Lite 1. 0 is a great concept but unfortunately not a great product.

The concept is simple: a hybrid sleeping pad that inflates beneath the heaviest parts of your body (shoulders and hips) for comfort, but is foam everywhere else for reduced weight."

"I don't like the (lack of) sleep comfort offered by an all-foam mat under my torso and don't completely trust self inflatables nor care for their higher carry weight. This is a good compromise; the lightness of a foam pad, full coverage down the legs (no 'shorty'), and a self inflating air mattress bladder for the shoulders and hips."
