I am in my sixth summer with this sleeping pad so I figured why not write a review. When I decided to get into backpacking, I did a lot of research on sleeping pads that were comfortable, lightweight, durable, and affordable. I picked out this one. Is it the most comfortable pad in the world? I don't know, I can only compare it to a CCF pad that I have, but I can say it is more comfortable than the CCF. I use it about 7-12 times per year, both for car camping and backpacking. I'm a woman and about 115 lbs. When you sit up on it, you feel it bottoming out, but when you lay down, your weight is distributed and it's comfortable. I can often sleep a full 8 hours and wake up without any significant pain. At home, I'm a side sleeper, but while camping I try to sleep more on my back. If I wake up on my side, I would say there's no pain in my hips, but if anything I can feel some temporary soreness in my shoulder. Tip: you should inflate it and then a few hours later top it off with more air. Not because it loses air, but because the warm air will lose volume as it cools. I will also say it takes way more breaths to inflate than the advertised 10-15. If I know it will be cold (say below 50F), I will pair this with my CCF pad for insulation from the cold ground. I continue to recommend Klymit to people who want something affordable but still high quality!

Great For Side Sleeper
Used this for a 2 week bikepacking trip. Saved a bunch of weight compared to my old pad and was comfy! Recently was a bit chilly on a colder night camping but perfect for summer.

nice to have a good pad that is better that what I have ever had. Soft and comfortable and easily inflated and taken down to a small package.

Customer service has been great, the quality of the pad is as good as many other products that are much more expensive.
