Self inflating is pretty good. Make sure to follow directions where first opening package. Inflated very slowly the first but after about 5 uses it inflates in about 3 minutes. Still needs a few extra breaths to make it firm. Extremely comfortable, I will never go backpacking without it. I was skeptical about air mattresses at first and how firm they would be, but even if I'm sitting up on the mattress, I still don't feel the ground. Very light weight for an inflatable mattress. Diagram might be slighly misleading on thermarest's site. Dimensions are 25" wide at the top, 20" wide at the bottom. Works great with my XL mummy bag. Only problem is it's impossible to take all the air out and therefore doesn't compress as well as I hoped. Will not fit back into the package it arrives in.
