[ I have the long wide version for solo trips and it facilitates the best sleep I can get while tent camping. Just picked up the double wide for trips with the wife. It is just as comfortable and even laying in the middle, by myself, on my side, the pad does not compress such that I touch the ground.

5 SamW
[ I ordered this for my partner who thinks most sleeping pads are too small and not thick enough. We have n't had a chance to really put it through the wringer yet, but first impressions are good. It is easy to inflate with the bag. Generously sized and seems durable( we camp with dogs that climb all over the seeping pads and I always worry about their claws). It's maybe a bit bulky/heavy but for the price point and r rating I think it strikes an excellent balance.

5 No nickname
[ Exactly what you think you 're getting. Kept me toasty and was super cozy. The inflator bag works great. I think the pack weight and size are spot on.

My wife is a sensitive sleeper, so at hotels where the mattresses have seen better days, we use the pad to even out the undulations, the too soft, or the too hard mattress. Works great. Can save many nights of poor sleep.

5 CodyBanks
Great pad! Just as firm in the morning as when I lay my head down. Used in sub 35- degree conditions with a 0- degree bag.

5 Lemur
[ Ultra light, ultra awesome. This is like sleeping on a cloud. I 'm 6'3 '' so I needed a mat like this for backpacking. If you do n't sleep well, you do n't hike well. This mat takes care of that. Comfortable, small packed and light... perfect for backpacking.

5 Strawbridge Treks
[ This is almost like cheating. It is comfortable and quiet compared to all the other lightweight options out there. It's a good night sleep whether you are out there for two nights or two seasons.

5 Arian A.
Its pretty light.. inflation is a breeze with a bag pump but i dont like the one that comes with it bcuz i dont like blowing into anything.. it packs down pretty tiny.. also the little air pockets hold your hips up even when sleeping on your side surprizingly.. and the riveted design allows for airflow btween your skin and the matt which is great in the summer so you dont get stuck to the matt with sweat..

5 Brian
I got this mat because the large size packs down as small as most companies' regular size sleeping mats. Inflation is a breeze, it stays inflated all night, it packs down super quick, and it comes with some velcro- like stickies to keep your Sea- to- Summit pillow from sliding off in the middle of the night. I can only comment on the comfort as a back sleeper, and it was fantastic in that category. I stayed put all night on my mat, when on other mats I have tossed and turned from discomfort. Another great quality is it is n't a noisy pad. Some other reviewers have mentioned it was too noisy... Who knows, maybe they were comparing it to a 12 inch thick memory foam mattress or something. It is much quieter than the previous mat I was using, and I have not received any complaints from tent mates. I did a lot of research and testing out other brands before I went with this one, and I 'm glad I did. It's a great value for an ultralight sleeping mat that is n't super fragile, and packs down to an incredibly small size. I will definitely buy the insulated version for the colder nights ahead.

5 Nykolas
I 've been incredibly happy with the sleeping mat. While I 'm not incredibly rough with it,( I generally check the ground when I put it down or use a ground clothe) I do n't treat it delicately either and it has n't let me down yet. It's ability to disappear into a frame bag until needed is indispensable.

This is one of those products that performs as well or better than the item description. It's a little bulky, so you 'll probably want to strap it to the outside of your pack. My Boy Scout, Venturer and I each have one: we love them!

5 Ashnmatt
We 've used Thermarest ccf pads under our inflatable mats for all of our cold weather trips. They keep us warmer by adding more rvalue. They also protect my inflatable pad, and my knees when I kneel down in the tent. They easily roll up and strap to our packs. They make pretty great sit pads when taking a break along the trail as well. We recently picked up another one for a friend who will be joining us on an early spring trip with cold temps this year. Ca n't wait to give it to them. Good price for the quality.

This pad is very comfortable, and light weight. A great choice for backpackers who are looking for ultra- light options. Seems to be very sturdy, have never had any issues with any NEMO pads, and have probably spent 30- 40 nights on Astros.

5 thedriftpirate
Way better than my previous pad. Quiet, warm, comfortable!

4 Black Mountains Drifter
Very pleased with this pad. I 've had both hips replaced and I 'm a side sleeper- no issues or pain as opposed to my older Thermarest. Recently returned from a 3 day- 2 hike in the Black Mountains of NC and temps the first night were in the low 20's. I was concerned about the R- value in those temps, but we prepped the ground under the tent with pine needles, and if did n't experience cold transfer issues from the ground. There are two reasons I did n't rate the Astro with 5- stars. 1. When removing the Vortex pump sack, it was sketchy to not pull the value all the way out causing rapid deflation. 2. The tri- fold roll- up design was difficult to line up properly on a consistent basis. Both of these things are small issues in my opinion, but worthy to drop one star rating.

5 D.C.
This pad is amazing- luxuriously plush and ridiculously comfortable. Almost as comfortable as own bed. You 'll be living large using it... and large it is. Too heavy/bulky to use for a long, backpacking thru- hike, but for a weekender or car camping, it's perfect. One quibble: the stuff sack it comes with is ridiculously small to try and fit the pad back into, it's virtually impossible. I wound up purchasing a new SeaToSummit stuff stack to avoid the aggravation. But all in all a sweet camping pad.

5 Sabrina G.
I purchased this sleeping mat last year for backpacking and was impressed by a few qualities: 1. The level of comfort. You 'll sleep almost as well on this pad as you will in your bed. 2. The 2- layer valve makes it very easy to inflate and deflate. 3. The soft surface feels nice on your skin, as opposed to being pressed up onto a pool toy as other mats sometimes feel. However, I experienced a problem with the mat springing leaks far too often, and that fuzzy surface I mentioned makes it difficult for a patch to create an air- tight layer. After talking to sea- to- summit about these problems, Matthew contacted me promptly and ensured that these were unusual. Sea to Summit then sent me a new pad in a matter of a couple days. I 'm hoping this mat holds up better, but regardless, I 'm very thankful for the positive interaction I had with Sea to Summit as a result.

5 Tom
I bought the regular size comfort plus self inflating. I have been sleeping on it for about 2 years each night at home and on the trail. Fantastic comfort. Sleep like a baby. Each night I ca n't wait to lie down on the floor. One day a week, I leave the valve open all day to allow it to return to original shape. What more can I say? Does a fantastic job without any noise or hot spots or soft spots. Seems to be extremely rugged and able to handle daily use without putting a blanket over it for protection. One thing I do is never lie down with anything sharp or even metal. I hope you have the same experience with this product. Thanks for reading, Kindest regards, Tom

5 Don M.
This is a great mattress. I use it in the back of my truck camping mainly but have also used in a larger tent. I have the double size version and it is extremely comfortable. We have even used it for relatives kids at our house. I would say that I have had my best nights sleep camping on this mattress. It is fairly large for storing but does roll up pretty good considering the size. It also inflates easily.

5 William
I could n't figure out to edit my review so... I wanted to comment on the valve. It works very well. Also, I purchased a large because I sleep on my side and am wide at shoulders. 20 '' is well enough If you fit. Only used once but I am very impressed with comfort level!

I live in Northern Minnesota where the nights are cool most of the year. May and September can have snow and June and August have some nights in the 40 degree range. I am always too cold and have struggled to fine tune my sleep system so that I can sleep through the night. I have gotten lower and lower rated sleeping bags in synthetic and down, an insulated inflatable pad, tried liners, wool base layers, hand warmers in double socks, hot nalgenes. I could go on and on. A friend recommended this pad and the first night I tried it, the temp was in the low 50s and we slept with the fly off. What a difference! Same bag, same set up as usual and not only did I sleep but I woke up too hot. THAT HAS NEVER HAPPENED. I love this pad for its versatility around camp but especially for the added warmth at night!

5
This pad is a must have for backpacking. It's ultra- lite, really comfortable, can be thrown anywhere to use as a pad or seat, and mostly it is very warm. It's ability to regulate temperature is surprising; it does n't get too hot on the hot days and it keeps your back side toasty warm throughout those chilly nights. Highly recommend.

5 Tristan
Who thought the classic closed cell foamed pad could be upgraded? NEMO made an awesome job coming up with something even better that what was already in the market. It is definitely more packable, and it regulates temperature quite well. From hot days to cold winter nights, the pad remains comfortable and warm. I 've used it in combination with the Vector as well as on its own. This kind of pad can be used in tons of different ways, and that is what makes it a must for any backcountry adventure!

5 grannie
I like this pad a lot! Much more comfortable than its competitors and packs down better. I bought it to increase the R value of my inflatable, but found out I can comfortably sleep on it by itself. I wish they would make a 25 '' wide one though. I would buy it in a heartbeat!

5
I love this pad! However, as pointed out by others, I could be wider. Personally it fits me fine but there could be a 25 inch version. Other wise I live this pad, and I love the brand Nemo all around!

4 Mels
This made sleeping on a cot so much more comfy! I was falling asleep testing it out. The only reason I ’ m giving it 4 out of 5 stars is because it kind of takes forever to fill it up. This would be sped up if you had some kind of pump to make it easier. But I ’ d still recommend it!

5 LightningBug
After a year of researching which backpacking pad to buy, I think I finally found* the one*. Last summer, I borrowed a Nemo Tensor from my friend and actually slept all through the night, every night on a week- long camping trip! As my old pad neared the end of it's lifetime, I would wake up on the ground, cold and unable to sleep. This pad is a huge upgrade from my previous pad, which lasted me for 10 years. I love the thickness of this Nemo pad and the design of the baffling, so that you do n't feel like you 're going to roll off the side( something that happened to me on my old mat). This pad packs down to practically nothing and feels quite durable for an insulated air pad. Instantly feels warm just laying on it at home. I ca n't wait to take it out with me this season! I now want all the Nemo products.

5 Liljinx88
As a big hipped side sleeper, I approve of this pad. A little noisy but very comfortable.

5 Zach
This may be the perfect pad for people like me-- tall side sleepers. The long- wide size is perfect for me and fits in my Big Agnes bag sleeve. Huge upgrade from my old Klymit Recon V Insulated, both thicker, more insulating, and lighter. The material change from older models brings more durability for sure, but is a little bit less comfortable against the body. No big deal for me as the thickness, size, and noise are much better. Inflation bag saves your lungs as well. Durability over multiple seasons remains to be seen, but seems to keep me warm down to 30's Fahrenheit so far.

Pros Awesome mattress nice and thick. Slept on a couple of roots didn ’ t even know were there until I picked up the mattress. Really was comfortable and worth the$$ Con If I were to change anything I would say you could go to 28/30 inches You also have to be a magician to get the mattress back in the bag takes a lot of work however when I got home we used the vacuum to deflate them fully

5 John K.
This pad is absolutely the BEST. I bought a regular wide and used it to stealth camp in my Honda Element at the crag this week. Long story short I 'm buying a double soon to keep in my vehicle at all times, and using the regular for tent camping when necessary. If you 're researching for van life, stop. This thing is your solution.

5 Heather W.
THIS IS BY FAR THE MOST COMFORTABLE THING I 'VE EVER SLEPT ON. And that includes real beds. I sleep on this in my car, in my tent, cowboy camping, under a tarp, and even when I crash at a friend's house. Impeccable comfort, ease of use, and durability.

I bought 2 of these several months ago for the Wife& I. These are a GREAT 3- Season Backpacking Sleeping Pads. As a bonus, they fits perfectly in the zip on side pockets of my KarrimorSF Predator 80- 130 Liter PLCE Modular Backpack. These Sleeping Pads inflate relatively quickly, requiring only a couple of extra puffs to bring the pad up to full inflation. They deflate even quicker with a little extra help& pack easily into the provided stuff sack.

I had the original klymaloft and loved it but my one thing I hated was how narrow it was. I 'm a size sleeper and constantly roll back and forth and with the regular size I often found myself on the ground a lot over the night. I just got myself and my partner the XL and have used it twice now. LOVE IT! Just the size I needed to still be portable but deal with my tossing and turning. How we just need a cover that fits so that I can get my pillow to stay in place! Any possibility of getting sheets with pillow holders that fit these!?!?

It's insulated, blows up within 10 breaths( usually 7- 8 for me), packs down to a nice size, is light and I do n't slide off it at all while I toss and turn. Because I sleep on my side, I find if I do n't blow it up firm.. it's great. It's definitely worth a try if you are on the fence.

I have a upper back issue and have been trying so hard to find a mat that doesn ’ t kill me in the backcountry. It has finally happened the little extra bulk is worth it. This mat helped me sleep through the night, kept me warm and insulated and is very quiet compared to a lot of other mats.

The second I lay on this mattress I knew it was the right choice. Sure you can go lighter, more compact or cheaper but why would you? The importance of having a good nights sleep is real. Good sleep= rested body, mental clarity and you enjoy your adventure SOOOOO much more. Poor nights sleep= grumpy, fatigued, brain stall. Its a no brainer. So what if you have to carry a few more grams. The only downside I see is that my partner keeps wanting to steal it. LOL. And the fact that its 4 season is another win. I am interested in seeing how long it lasts. Will keep you posted.

Comfy and easy to use. It took me a while to figure out the deflate valve configuration, but once I got it, it worked like a charm.

Inflates and deflates very easily. Quite cushy and comfortable. Seems to be very well insulated, although we have n't had any really cold temps to fully assess that. A bit large for backpacking, but worth it if sleeping comfortably is an issue.

We pack in the Backcountry with goats, so we like to live in comfort back there. This mattress is the perfect blend of lightweight packable and comfortable.

This sleeping pad, paired with my quilt, gave me a great( and warm) night sleep in the Rocky Mountain backcountry! Definitely recommend getting the 25 '' wide version, as the extra couple inches makes all the difference. I 've slept on narrow pads in the past that made me feel like I was sleeping on a diving board... but the baffles on the edges of this pad kept me in place all night, no matter if I was sleeping on my side, back or anything in between.

My son used this post shoulder surgery on a cold night. He was warm and stated pad did n't bother his shoulder.

I saved to get this sleep pad as the price tag was a little more than some of the others. but i am so glad that i did. Very easy to use and for a side sleeper i can get a very comfortable night of rest. I have used it in cold weather and warm weather alike. If you are considering getting a pad, this is the one.

Purchased this Camping Pad for my Grandsons first Scout Camping trip. it was very easy to carry on his backpack. The accordion folds make it very easy to set up and to repack in the morning. My grandson waoke up in the morning and told me it was the best sleep he ever had:)

Great addition to camping if sleeping on a cot. Gives a little more cushion to rest after a day of hiking and camping. Easy to transport and super light, the straps hold the folded up pad nicely.

The Big Agnes Zoom UL Insulated sleeping pad is an excellent choice for anyone who values comfort without sacrificing pack weight. It's impressively light and compact, yet provides a warm and supportive night's sleep thanks to its high R- value and insulated construction. The surface feels stable and quiet, and the larger outer chambers do a great job of keeping you centered through the night. Setup is quick, I use a small battery inflator instead of the full sack, and it packs down smaller than a water bottle. Overall, the Zoom UL Insulated is a top- tier pad for backpackers and thru- hikers who want premium comfort in an ultralight design.

Product is very light and packs down. Upgraded from my last Big Agnes UL sleeping pad and this model is comfier and does n't squeak when I move around. Plus it comes with an air bag to inflate. Love it for backpacking!!!

I have taken it backpacking multiple times, it has held up very well and adds a great deal of comfort over traditional sleeping pads

Great sleeping mat. A little noisy, but definitely not as loud as some of them out there. I would not hesitate to buy again

This mat is perfect to slip into the Torchlight exp youth 20 sleeping bag. Both the bag and mat did their job, keeping my son in one spot and warm. I asked him if his bag was cold, and he said no. We were in about 35- degree nights.

[ Bought this for one of my kiddos to replace a lost mattress. We 're doing mostly car camping but some backpacking. It's lightweight enough but inflated very thick and everyone is happy with it.

Rock solid pad. Lightweight and packable for the price. Good thickness. Way better than the Klymit pad I replaced with it. I 'm considering buying another one, because my daughter keeps stealing mine.

Backpacking and river trips. Comfort and lightness are the positives.

5 Mr Fisher
Am a 6'4 ''& 235lb BSA scoutmaster and always get good sleep on this pad. Chose 7oz lighter 25x78 uninsulated Divide for backpacking I sleep in wool layers if it is cold. Inflation squeeze bag puts air into pad via one way inflation port, which avoids saliva or breath contamination. Baffles provide stability across the entire pad, with no soft spots. On 3+ night trips, I have to add air, so it must leak a little. The material does n't seem are noisy or slippery and my ultralight down bag stays atop it the entire night.

I have one of these for every family member. They are tough and reliable.

[ Love the fact that it is made of sugar cane. I 've only tried this at home but planning to use for winter backpacking as insolation under inflatable sleeping pad. It is very light weight and comfortable, no rubbery/plastic noise during sleep like the `` z '' shaped foam pads. I can lay it on the floor, put two blankets on it and sleep well. But for people who do n't usually sleep on floor, there may not be enough cushioning.

[ This pad is exactly what I was looking for. Light and comfy enough for 3 season and extra insulation for my wife in winter. This is my first rolled closed cell pad. Had a little trouble keeping the pad from rolling up under my feet, but got a bit better with use.

[ We bought this for added insulation under our Big Agnes inflatable sleeping pad. Works great for warmth and added cushion for a great nights sleep! Love ot, highly recommend!

My golden retriever loves this pad when he goes backpacking. It is perfect for a big dog and you do n't have to worry about claws puncturing it. It keeps him warm and comfortable at night in the sierras.

Frequently Asked Questions For Lightweight Camping Mats

Lightweight camping mats provide essential comfort and insulation while minimizing pack weight, making them ideal for backpackers and campers. They help to keep you warm by providing a barrier between you and the cold ground, enhancing your overall sleeping experience. Additionally, their compact size allows for easy storage and transport, making them a practical choice for outdoor adventures.

Lightweight camping mats are typically made from durable materials such as nylon or polyester, often featuring a waterproof coating for added protection. Many also incorporate insulating materials like foam or air chambers to enhance comfort and warmth. The choice of materials can affect the mat's weight, packability, and overall performance in various weather conditions.

Choosing the right thickness for a lightweight camping mat depends on your intended use and personal comfort preferences. Thicker mats generally offer more cushioning and insulation, making them suitable for colder environments or those who prefer extra comfort. Conversely, thinner mats are lighter and more compact, ideal for minimalist backpacking or warmer conditions.

Lightweight camping mats are versatile and can be suitable for various types of camping, including backpacking, car camping, and even festivals. However, their performance may vary based on the terrain and weather conditions. For example, while they can provide comfort in mild weather, you may need additional insulation for colder climates or rugged terrains.

When evaluating the durability of a lightweight camping mat, consider the materials used, the construction quality, and the intended use. Look for mats with reinforced seams and puncture-resistant materials to withstand rough surfaces. Additionally, check the weight limit and care instructions to ensure the mat meets your specific camping needs.
