Synopsis: Buy one now!
Man I don't even know where to start. I have a bad back from too many ski injuries and this thing is a life saver.
I used to be custom to the same crappy foam pad I've had forever because I always thought the self-inflating pads were just as bulky and didn't give much more comfort so why bother.
I finally decided to buy one of these bad boys because of the small roll-up size and it was sooooo worth it! They are lightweight, compact, and give you an amazing night's sleep. It's like having a blow up mattress.
Sure it takes about 5 minutes to blow it up but not waking up once during the night makes the blow up time totally worth it. You can't feel any rocks or anything and sleeping on your side is like a dream.
Do yourself a favor and buy one now and one for your girlfriend while you're at it. You'll thank yourself after the first night.
