Ozark Trail Twin Air Mattress

Used twice and wouldn't hold air the second time. Couldn't find any leaks. Waste of money! I need a bed for now and got this one and it refuses to hold the needed air to sleep on for more than 4 hours. I cannot hear a leak or find a hole. The bed said it came with a patch kit, but it didn't, so even if I found a leak there is no patch to fix it. I DO NOT recommend this product as now I have to go buy yet another bed. Full review

Flextail Tiny Pump 2X

This is currently Flextail’s lightest and smallest mattress inflator/light. Exactly what you want for backpacking, On the web I found out about backpacking mattress pumps. I decided to investigate and ended up buying this model—I checked out many others, but they were too big and heavy for my backpacking use. It arrived and I charged it up. When charged I inflated my Sea-to-Summit hiking single-person air mattress. It comes with 5 nozzles of different sizes. One fit perfectly. Next I tried the… Full review

Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Topo Luxe

When Therm-a-Rest uses the word “Luxe”, boy is it ever. The materials are first quality. It is always comfortable, and you can tell it is a deluxe item. Large is 25x77" and weighs 1lb 13oz. The loft is 10cm (4").   Wot more do ya need? What a great piece of equipment! I have used it for a whole year of, well, non-backpacking camping. Yeah, I’m kind of a wimp. Even though it stows compactly in the original bag with no fuss, the extra 12 or so ounces more than my Big Agnes is enough to not… Full review

Ozark Trail Twin Air Mattress

I purchased an Ozark Trail twin blowup mattress for $52 at Walmart. My granddaughter slept on it twice and it stopped holding air. What a waste of money! Not worth the money. Used twice and started losing air during the night. Full review

Ozark Trail Air Mattress Velour Top

I don't know how they can legally call this an "air mattress," when it doesn't hold air! This product is absolutely worthless and doesn't have one redeeming value. I will not review this piece of junk. It is absolutely worthless and a waste of money. Maybe we could file a class action suit against Ozark Trail for false advertising. They claim it's an "Air Mattress," but In order to be an "Air Mattress" shouldn't it at least HOLD AIR?? Warning—do not ever buy one. You'll regret it very soon! Full review

Flextail Tiny Pump X

One of the dumbest purchases that I really like. I had an amazon gift card that I had to use and couldn't find anything, so I did this. I'm embarrassed that I have it. It is seriously one of the laziest things I've ever owned.  Youtube with Exped Synmat Duo - mainly to give you an idea of how loud it is. This inflation took 1min 50 as the battery was getting low. No, I didn't film the entire boring inflation, trust me it worked. It inflates our Klymit double pad in 1 minute and 40 seconds. A single… Full review

Klymit Insulated Hammock V

Goes flat every 20 minutes. Multiple leaks. Bought pad Brand New and used once. Absolute Garbage. Good intention but poor execution and materials. I wish Therm-a-Rest made a similar pad. I bought it brand new at the Boy Scout Store in Atlanta. Next day I drove to the Blue Ridge Mountains here in Georgia. After I hiked in to camp I set up a ground sheet for keeping stuff of the ground, set up my Warbonnet Blackbird XLC (American Made) and then inflated the Insulated hammock V Pad (Chinese). Went… Full review

Exped Ultra 1R

Exped's lightweight and easy to use Ultra 1R sleeping pad is quiet, durable, and provides substantial comfort throughout a wide temperature range. Paired with a short CCF (closed-cell foam) pad, the Ultra 1R proved to be comfortable down to the mid-30°F range on the 93-mile Wonderland Trail in Mount Rainier National Park in September 2022. Although this sleeping pad is aimed toward lightweight/ultralight hikers, any camper looking for a compact and durable sleeping pad may find this product more… Full review

Ozark Trail Air Mattress Velour Top

Zero stars. 20+ years experience of sleeping on air mattresses. This is by far the worst ever. Zero stars. I have regularly used air mattresses for 20+ years one weekend a month in a room full of teens. I was excited about the extra height this single air mattress had. As I age I need height to get up easier. I expect an air mattress to survive 2-3 years. This one did not even get me through two nights. I understand stretching, so I tried it again for several more nights. Never have I had an air… Full review
