Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
Yes, this thing weighs nearly twice as much as the tiny popular brand sleeping pad. But for me, the extra 1-1.5 lbs in my bag is worth an exponentially more comfortable (and warmer) night's rest. I don't have to roll over 57 times throughout the night to keep my arms from freezing or to relieve the pressure the ground puts against my hip (such as with thinner pads). I'm 6'2" and my lower legs hang off the edge. This doesn't bother me at all. My girlfriend has one of the thinner lighter popular (and more expensive) brand pads and routinely tries to sucker me into letting her sleep on my pad instead. It's good to keep 25lbs or less in your pack, but better rest is worth the extra weight.
