redefines inflatable pads for me

By Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete Ranked #184 - Lightweight Sleep Pads August 7, 2011

I have been using thermarests for about 18 years. For me, the lighter the better, and I don't expect to be literally "bed style comfortable." I haven't tried any new ones for a few years, but I got this one because it was far lighter and smaller when deflated than the old ultralight ones I had. I am truly shocked at how comfortable it is. It inflates to be extremely thick and uniformly supportive, which I haven't experienced before in an inflatable pad. In the past, they have all been much thinner, especially in the ultra lightweight models, and I have always found the thicker ones to be kind of mushy and swimming-pool-air-mattress-like, if that makes sense. I am actually equally comfortable on this as my home mattress, and I can't get over how firm and supportive the baffles are. I feel like the technology has really gotten there. I think this pad is worth investing in, if you are considering upgrading.
