I have used Ridgerests for decades and sometimes a 10 year old Thermarest. I bought the Trekker (regular size) about 3 weeks ago and used it in the Shenandoah Park on 12/2 wit…

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 t…

I recently purchased this mat to replace an older self inflating mattress and I am blown away by the difference in weight, while maintaining the same level of comfort. The mat…

I love this thing.. unroll it and it will self inflate in about 2-4 minutes.. enough that all you will need to do is throw 1-2 breathes to adjust the firmness. its very ligh…

I certainly wouldn't take these backpacking, but we used them for a 9 day (sagged) bike trip, and they were amazing. Once you've biked 60 or 70 miles, hauled all your crap to…

I have had this pad for several trips now. The sleep that I have gotten in the back-country since getting this pad has greatly increased. It is also pretty light pad that does…

We are new to backpacking, early 40's in age and wanted something comfortable and warm. We did quite a bit of research before choosing this one. It is not as light or small…

I am soo glad that I bought this sleeping pad. Sure, it's not the lightest out there, but the good sleep I get on it is worth the weight. (not that it's heavy by any means). I…

I have this pad and use it backpacking. Very comfortable and warm. It has never leaked and stays full all night long. My only complaints are that it is bulky compared to th…

Love my therm a rest. Always easy to inflate. You can tell the quality therm a rest uses in building their sleeping pads. Seams are strong and durable. You can't beat going wi…

I am always skeptical of products that market themselves as the "women's version", but in this case, there are actual structural changes to the pad that seem to be relevant.…

It's warm, it's light, and it's cheap. I've taken mine winter camping in Michigan, but also out in the Rocky Mountains. Obviously, it's not going to make sleeping on rocks lik…

While in the miltary I hurt my back in the middle east. After I cam home I found out I needed a lot more support when I camped. This was the answer to all my problems. I could…

When broken down on a dry, warm, hard floor in my house, it's relatively easy to go from fully inflated to stuff sack. When broken down on a wet, soft, cold tent floor it's a…

I have had this for many years and it has never let me down. It does not inflate very much however it is enough. The main purpose of one of these is not for comfort but to kee…

Awesome pad. Keep in mind, it is a full 4 season pad, so it is bigger and heavier than some, but 2 pounds is awesome for something so warm and comfortable. I used the long ver…

This is a very well-made Thermarest pad - very supportive and durable - but it's very slippery and doesn't have bag loops on the end. It's moderately comfortable and pretty li…
