Therm-a-Rest has spent lots of time in their lab improving upon the NeoAir XLite NXT, so we figured we better get it into the Moosejaw Test Lab as well. The 4.5 R-value makes it ready for year-round adventure, and it's been said to be quieter, thicker, and more versatile than the previous iteration, so let's go get our sleep on.
The Library Test
The outdoors are full of crickets, but it doesn't mean the inside of your tent has to be full of loud crinkles every time you roll over. Therm-a-Rest has graciously reduced the amount of noise of the NeoAir XLite NXT by 83% from the previous version, so get ready for a serenade of silence. With this extremely scientific science experiment, we've set out to the library to prove how hush-hush this sleeping pad really is when you're snoozing.

Now three inches thick, the NeoAir XLite NXT sleeping pad puts plenty of space between you and the ground. It's mega-comfortable to sleep on, and also makes it easier to adjust to your preferred firmness level with the WingLock Valve. The WingLock also makes inflation and deflation super quick when you're in a hurry to sleep, or get back on the trails. Watch this video to find out how long our scientist slumbers in this test.
