NEMO Tensor Insulated

Great pad in terms of weight and comfort, but it quickly developed a slow leak. Several emails to Nemo went unanswered. So much for the lifetime warranty. Full review

NEMO Tensor Insulated

I liked it, but ultimately returned it due to the temp rating. I found it cold below 30 degrees. I really liked the comfort and size, and it takes up a lot less pack space than my Therm-a-Rest. It was quieter than I would have expected and it worked well for me in October conditions, but for winter camping it didn't really cut it. With a down bag, it was cold for me under 30 degrees.   Full review

Ozark Trail Air Mattress Velour Top

Such a waste of time and money, especially being handicapped and disabled. I need a mattress I can depend on for even 2 days or more. But NO not this piece of crap.  Wasted what little money I have. I get less than $10,000 A YEAR. Not even worth the time or cost. Full review

Exped SynMat Hyperlite Duo

Why didn't this exist before!! I based my review with the understanding that this mattresses is oriented to people that do not mind closeness. While camping such oddity as space isn't a matter to me nor my outdoor partners. The point is to share and not to distance one from another, thus enjoying warmth and company. This mattress fits perfectly the smallest of two-people tents including the ultralight. By using all the floor space available, it places the mattress in a firm and unmovable position,… Full review

Ozark Trail Air Mattress Velour Top

Sh*t product and bad to try and get help. Can't get help from anyone. Full review

Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Topo

The NeoAir Topo is a 3-inch thick and comfortable two+ season air mattress with ample room and solid construction. For the ultimate in camp comfort, it can be converted into a really nice seat and backrest with the Trekker chair kit. The NeoAir Topo sacrifices weight for comfort (so do I!), and is a nice option for the more budget conscious hiker who doesn't want to shell out for the higher R-value and thickness of its more expensive cousin, the NeoAir Topo Luxe.

Gossamer Gear ThinLight 1/8" Insulation Pad

I use a short length of this for: sitpad, insulation booster, and tent surfing prevention. I find a length bit of this waterproof insulation generally very useful. About 50g, or a bit over a meters worth. Torso length. Good to use as a sit pad on breaks . It is also exceptionally good at stopping my Ether Light mat slipping around on the DCF tent floor at night, AKA tent surfing. Makes it stick like glue. And of course it adds insulation value. So it's all good. Full review

Therm-a-Rest NeoAir XLite

The Thermarest NeoAir XLite is one of the most popular backpacking sleeping pads on the market due to comfort and packability. If you’ve done your research, you’ve probably heard of the Thermarest Neo Air XLite sleeping pad. It’s one of the most popular sleeping pads on the market due to its lightweight design and comfortable support. It isn’t difficult to fall in love with a sleeping pad like this one because it holds you in all of the right places, and keeps you warm all night.  As a… Full review

Therm-a-Rest BlockerLite Pump Sack

A simple and light dual-purpose dry bag and pump sack for the new Therm-a-Rest Winglock and Twinlock valve sleeping pads. Inflation of the pads is easy and the waterproof construction seems like it will hold up. The BlockerLite Pump Sack is only 20 liters, so it takes quite a few sacks of air to fill larger pads, and may not work on older valves or other brands, but overall it's a great match for new Therm-a-Rest mattresses. This is the initial review of the Therm-a-Rest BlockerLite Pump Sack after… Full review
