Great nights sleep

Ranked #329 - Midweight Sleep Pads

The most important feature of this pad that I myself was looking for was its ability to pack extremely small. I am thus far very impressed. It rolls up to the size of a small loaf of bread and is quite light for its large size (I purchased the long pad). In terms of comfort I also have no qualms. After all, this is for camping, and should not be compared to sleeping in a luxury hotel bed. I did have a chance to read some of the other reviews and tend to disagree with the individual who said it's like sleeping on a raft. I could see that if you over inflate it, but to correct the problem all you have to do is let out some air. As an added benefit, they included a patch kit.
I certainly was not disappointed by the fact that this pad lacked the self-inflating option. It is much simpler to just use your own breath. Overall, it's a top notch product and perfect for those looking for something very light and very comfortable. I will certainly recommend it to others looking for a great bang for their buck.
