What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven
I originally started with some self-inflating, 1 inch pads that I thought were pretty good. Then, I bought a Big Agnes non-insulated air mattress at the REI Garage sale. It was terrific. The size to weight to comfort ratio was much better than the self-inflating pad. Then, with trips to the Rocky Mountains and Grand Tetons looming, I found the insulated air core. Aaaaaahhhhh. I even went for the 3/4 length one. Again, I was impressed with the size to weight to comfort ratio. I have camped with several people since who have walked away with sleeping pad envy. Apart from being a bit too narrow, actually, I'm probably too big, but working on that, I can find no flaws with it. Inflating is not bad at all. I can have it inflated in about 2-3 minutes. No big deal. I have also added the chair frame and the pair make a heck of a place to kick back when on the trail.
I highly recommend this product, and have had at least 2 friends purchase after trying it out.
