Summary

Affordable sleeping pad, it rolls up very small and is very light. This guy will keep you warm and cozy!

Pros

Good thermal rating
Light
Very Packable
Includes it's own stuff sack

Cons

Material is a bit slippery
Not as durable feeling as other higher end Therm-a-Rests

This sleeping pad is very comfortable, very easy to use (just unroll it and give it time then add a breath or two and voila!).

I put the durable feeling as a con, however I have to say I have had zero issue with the durability of this sleeping pad. I had a dog sleeping on it and walking on it with her nails and no issues. Also duct tape would adhere well and serve as a quality temporary patch if need be.

This is a low end Therm-A-Rest, but it definitely does the job without breaking the bank. It will keep you elevated and warm without adding a lot weight to your system.
