Why We Like The NEMO Tensor Trail Sleeping Pad
Packing to the size of a 32-ounce water bottle and delivering ground insulation, the NEMO Tensor Trail Sleeping Pad is a comfort item and ultralight option in one.

From camp to camp, this pad rolls up and stuffs away compactly, adding just a pound to our pack.

Outstanding
Hiking the Colorado Trail as a thru-hike this summer, I started out with a Therm-a-Rest NeoAir XLite NXT sleeping pad and it developed a valve leak on day one. I was able to buy the Nemo Tensor Trail pad while on a zero day in Buena Vista. This pad was fantastic! Very effecient and simple valve system was super reliable. I will be buying more Nemo products in the future.

Sizes limited
Ounces matter. We are not all tall. When will you make a 60-66” length mattress? 66” for the higher R value model. Even if you don’t offer both mummy and rectangular at those lengths.

Great, lightweight pad!
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Size Bought:
- Regular/Wide
I took this pad out for a two night backpacking trip and it was great! The sack that comes for inflating seemed like a super weird idea to me at first, but at 11,000 feet, breathing normally -- in through the nose and out through the mouth -- to fill up a sleeping pad was awesome. I didn't get lightheaded! Because it's got a lot of air between you and the ground, it was warm enough for my 38 degree night, and I even got hot. It also provides good protection from little rocks or roots, so that was great. There's a little bit of noise, but I didn't find it bothersome (my tent mate noticed it). Overall a great, light, comfortable sleeping pad! Don't be afraid to let a little air out for comfort. I found it quite uncomfortable when completely inflated.

It just worked, for the whole AT
I just finished the Appalachian Trail, your product the Nemo Tensor worked and lasted 5+ months of everyday use on the trail! Well done, I am impressed!

Great Pad
I upgraded to this pad after using the Klymit static v for 3 years. What a difference! Comfort, insulation, this pad is great.

This pad sold me on extra-wide comfort
Borrowed one of these from a friend for a multi-nighter. The extra width was a nobrainer and lead me to buying my own.

Awesome pad!
These are super nice pads. Quite, warm and light, you can't beat these. The pump sack is amazing. They pack great in the bag and don't take up too much space.

Great for the Pacific Northwest!
My experience with the Nemo Tensor Trail sleeping pad has been great. To start off, the vortex pump sack is fantastic for inflating the pad. The pad has a 2.6 R value, which is fantastic for the Pacific Northwest's moderate climate. I used this pad on the Lost Coast Trail and across the Trinity Alps. It has helped fantastically in all conditions. Also, bear the extra weight and get the wide pad.

Would buy this again and again!
Would buy this again and again and I have. I recently got my bike and all my gear stolen bike packing in Canada. I definitely question all my gear choices when I have to rebuy things but not this. It's so light but still tough. Has held up will even when I'm just sleeping in a ditch.
