Quasar 3D Insulated Sleeping Pad

Worth its weight in Gold!

I remember the days, when a good sleeping pad took up half the space in my checked bag, now I can fit one in my cargo pocket. I can’t say enough about how much I love this pad, I’ve had mine for a year now and it’s served me well in Norway, Patagonia, Iceland and a recent trip to the Alps. I’m able to fit this and my Nemo sleeping bag in my carry on bag and it maybe only takes up 30% of the bag. It’s so comfortable too. I just lay on my side, deflate until my hip touches the ground and then add in a couple more puffs of air and I sleep like a baby. It’s only more comfortable than most beds in your average hotel and I don’t risk getting bed bugs. Over the past year, I’ve traveled for around 2 months and slept 95% of the time out of my car with this pad and likely saved over 10k in hotel costs and slept wonderfully.

Regular too narrow

Comfortable, keeps you off the ground, long enough (but in only 5'6"), but NOT wide enough. I invariably fall off one side or the other.

Really nice

Comfortable and easy to inflate. Well worth the purchase

NEBO 3D Sleeping bag

The mattress itself is very nice. Used on the famous RAGBRAI bicycle adventure in Iowa and slept well. The accompanying filler bag was useless. Popped on the second, literally, second bag full of air. Bring an electric or pedal pump.

Happy Camper.

Wow we have come a long way from foam sleeping pads for those who want comfort and need to carry light. This is a great sleeping pad. I’m not light, but it holds me well and I don’t bottom out. I love the options for size and insulation. Went with the wide non-insulated. Im bike touring Nova Scotia and so far it’s been a great choice. A few things I’d like: more curvature on the sides for us side sleepers. There’s some but more would be better. And to be very fussy, I’d like to chose what side to inflate it from.

Super warm and comfortable

I got this pad (the wide and long) for a last minute winter camping trip in Yellowstone. It was seriously cold, -15 the first night. Extra weight was not a problem as I had a sled for gear, but this pad is fairly light anyway. I was totally warm, it did not make noise when moving, and it wasn't uncomfortable as my previous winter pad was. Easy to blow up and deflate, I didn't use the inflater bag. The raised sides; I didn't fall off ever.

Not that comfortable

Maybe it's just because I'm a side-sleeper and have big hips, but no matter what I do, I can't seem to get a good nights sleep on this thing. I feel like I wake up every hour and have to turn over because my hips hurt so bad! I wanted to like this pad, and I've honestly not found *any* lightweight pad that is truly just flat-out comfortable, but my hips hurt more on this one than perhaps any of my other pads (Big Agnes, Thermarest).

Finally, A Good Camping Night's Sleep!

Picked up the Quasar 3D Pad after repeated nights sliding off my ultra lightweight (yet very slick) pad made by *ahem* another supplier. A friend recommended and I actually made the purchase from the campsite - ha! It's been a game-changer, especially when paired with my Disco sleeping bag. Finally, a good night's sleep, even on a slight angle.

Great customer service OMG its great! Quasar pad!

I got one one of the new ground pads, When I got it there was a tiny little ittsy bittsy tiny little hole. I have no idea how it got there. A quick email to customer service, I was able to patch it and made it on my trip. When I made it home, on my door step Monday morning was a brand new ground pad!! Didn’t even know it was on the way until I got service back Sunday on the way home! Great company! Great gear! Great everything all the way around. Customer for life.

Great All-Around Pad

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

I've mostly used the Quasar car camping, but you can definitely take it on shorter backpacking trips. I like the easy taper from head to toe, and the "3D" body mapping tech really does keep you centered on the pad without adding length-wise baffles. Nice durability, even with a large dog stomping all over the pad in the tent!
