We ordered this product for my son to take camping with the Boy Scouts. He loves it and we love that it is so easy to inflate, deflate, and roll up for storage. A big bonus is that it comes with it's own storage bag. Glad we made this purchase - it is the creme de la creme of sleeping pads!
The Therma-A-Rest Pro-Lite is a lightweight, easily compressible sleeping pad of excellent quality and construction. Packs up great, is quite cushy, and hard to slide off. It is quiet and not crinkly. The only thing I've found better is the super cushy and plush Pro-Lite Plus !
I use this pad for canoe trips and packs down so small and light, it is perfect. I have used it outside the tent for sitting around the fire on sticks and rocks and still has not been poped, a really burly pad. top stuff
I've used this for many campouts and it works pretty well. I've come to realize though that they full body thing isn't really necessary. A 3/4 length pad would work just as well and be smaller. I'll also point out that in cold temperatures the whole self inflating aspect is weak and forcing air into it is hard as well. This is unfortunate because the time when you need the sleeping pad most is when it is cold.
I have taken this pad on many adventures through Upper Michigan. Whether it be sleeping by Lake of the Clouds in the Porkey Pine Mountains or Beaches on lake superior. I have found that it has provided me with ample amounts of support, comfort and warmth. Definitely recomend this product.
This pad is comfortable and helps retain a lot of heat. It's a bit heavier then the new NeoAir pads but I believe it to be more durable. It flattens out nicely and sits on the bottom of my pack without taking up much space. I use it between the bottom of pack and sleeping bag.
I took this pad with me to canada on a canoeing trip and mulitple backpacking trips and love its weight and its pack size. Id get another in a heartbeat!
I always wanted a Therm-A-Rest sleeping pad. Now I got one thanks to the awesome sale at Moosejaw. Very compact and light weight! A must have for the over night hiking trip.
Comfortable, light, small. I recommend the large size..its worth have the extra width. Not a fan of the valve..it is annoying to try to blow it up yourself.
"This is a great lightweight sleeping pad"

This sleeping pad is lightweight, packs small and insulates well. I used this in combination with a ridgerest on Denali, and it kept me warm and comfortable in my tent.
The pad rolls up tight, easily. Never have to worry about finding room for it, I put it between the pack and my hood and usually wrap other things around it that I don't necessarily want to take up space in my pack with. It's always kept me comfortable when I use it and is certainly better than just no pad. I find that its best to try and find a grassy area (always best) because it certainly won't get rid of the roots or rocks in the ground. All in all great and it performed well every day walking from Ga to Pa.
