Therm-a-Rest Z-Lite Sleeping Pad

Item #CAS0238 | 0 in Stock
3 Star Rating

Light but bulky

By Ranked #1054 - Lightweight Sleep Pads October 30, 2007

I picked this up specifically for its light pack weight for my first backpacking trip. Unfortunately it took a lot of space inside my pack, so I ended up moving it to the outside. Because of its blocky shape it's a little awkward, but weight wise I can't complain. It really is quite light. In terms of warmth I didn't feel a huge difference between sleeping on the pad and when I would inadvertently roll off it and onto the bare tent floor. However, when weight is a concern, I'd say there was plenty cushion and support for the price. I'd recommend this for warm to mildly cool weather outings when size isn't an issue but weight is.
