The Big Agnes Rapide SL Insulated Tent Floor is supremely comfortable for two campers. The thick quilted padding and massive footprint dished out some of the best nights of sleep we have experienced in the backcountry. The insulation offered also seems to outperform the 4.2 R-value as the entire floor is insulated and sharing of body heat becomes a viable option when compared to two single sleeping pads.
The weight and packed size are important points to consider as this weighs almost as much as three typical single backpacking sleeping pads and has a packed volume of about 6 liters. While these are important points to consider for the intrepid backpacking duo, we found the positives to far outweigh the, well, weight of this pad.

I'm 6' 3'', got the wide/long version. It's a bit heavier than I would've liked for backpacking, but I always roll off the standard sized ones at night, so I was willing to deal with a few extra ounces. Worked great with my quilt straps.

Very comfortable

 So for a short regular pad I’m looking at 18oz without the stuff sack and the most comfortable nights sleep I’ve ever had while backpacking. This pad is saving my middle aged self while out on the trail. Warm, comfortable and light. I’m in love ❤️

 The sides are a bit higher which keeps you on the pad. It also comes in a short version which is perfect for my 5’2” self.

Mega in size, comfort, and warmth: this is as comfortable as it can get at basecamp, in a camper van, or where light weight is not the main priority. Pioneering a new generation of self inflating 3D mats with a level sleeping surface from edge to edge. This feature combined with the luxurious thickness and simple inflation make it a synonym for comfort.

Dense and insulated, the MegaMat delivers excellent support, comfort, and warmth.

Exped’s MegaMat Duo 10 combines the dimensions of a full-size air bed with the luxurious comfort of a foam self-inflating pad. The net result is an excellent night’s sleep for two campers: The 3.9-inch-thick cushioning and vertical sidewalls rival the Therm-a-Rest MondoKing above, but the one-person MondoKing can’t touch the Duo’s 52-inch width. With fairly easy inflation/deflation via two large valves and a durable construction, the MegaMat checks off all the boxes for a pair of comfort-oriented campers (we’ve also found it useful as a backup bed for guests at home).

The biggest downside of the Exped MegaMat Duo 10 is price. At a whopping $380, it’s one of the most expensive pads to make our list (just behind the luxurious HEST Sleep System below). It makes more sense if you factor in purchasing two separate premium pads like the $230 MondoKing, but owning a double like the Duo can be overkill when camping by yourself (although too much room isn’t necessarily a bad thing). And a much smaller gripe: The included foot pump is inefficient and only helpful for topping the mat off (it’s best to wait for it to self-inflate). Regardless, the comfort and quality are tough to beat. And for the ultimate in camping luxury, Exped makes a Max 15 variation that increases thickness from 3.9 inches to a whopping 5.9 inches. Bulk and cost also go up, with the Long Wide Double size coming in at $460... Read in-depth reviewSee the Exped MegaMat Duo 10

The Exped MegaMat 10 provides comfort equal to — and sometimes exceeding — our beds at home. Really, you can't ask for much more from a rollout inflatable foam mat. The top has a soft, comfortable feel that doesn't get sticky or sweaty even without a sheet. The one-flutter valve allows for easy adjustment of mattress firmness. Even the most fickle testers could dial in the perfect PSI for their ultimate night under the stars. This pad inflates easily with a compact foam foot pump and comes with a generously sized carrying sack, complete with shoulder straps.
Remember that the MegaMat 10's width provides extra comfort, but it also takes up a lot of space in a smaller tent, meaning you might crowd out your neighbor. If you usually camp with a significant other, check out the MegaMat 10 Duo, which offers equal comfort on a two-person scale. This mat is on the expensive side, but the quality matches the price. If you car camp more than a few nights per year or even want an excellent spare mattress for overnight guests, this one is worth it, and your body will thank you.

I'd go with a hybrid foam+air like the exped megamat (check your dimensions!). It's more durable, warmer, and comfier, or it was for me.

So I've been planning a camping trip in my 2008 Fit Sport for quite sometime. I already tried it once just to try things out and discovered some issues. The main concern is bedding. I used an air mattress last time and I really tried to get the dimensions right so it would fit with the back seats folded down, and it barely fits. The bigger issue is the fact that the air mattress got a hole from something, I'm not sure what. But to remedy this issue, I'm thinking of using just a plain foam mattress topper. I could roll it up and unroll it when I want to use it, but then there's the issue of space. Would anyone happen to know of a foam mattress that is compactible, such as vacuum packed, or any method like that?

Car Camping Bedding

If car camping, the Exped MegaMat.  It has a very high R value (insulates you from the ground) and is by far the most comfortable sleeping pad out there.  Well worth the price.

I’m a total noob to the camping world, but desperately missing hiking and kayaking since becoming ill. Camping seems to be a good way to get me back in the woods in a way that would be good for my body. Would love any and all tips!

Chronic illness gal wondering: What is your favorite brand of tent AND sleeping pads/bags for a family of 3? We’re in Tennessee and would mostly be camping in the fall and spring or the mild winter weeks. Big no to summer camping here 🥵

This is a car camping mattress, not a backpacking mattress. The size is simply too bulky to backpack. However, for heavier camping or overnight guests at home it is far superior to any standard inflatable camping-style mattress. The self-inflating foam does give it good insulating properties and its 4 inch thickness means you can sleep on your side

 The only real con is that it's about $100 too expensive IMHO.  Durability is unknown at this point, although it stayed fully inflated for its first use of two consecutive nights.

Close to a home mattress

 One thing about the Megamat DUOs is they have a VERY large pack size and are quite heavy. The other thing about the Megamat is their very high R values can be a bit overwhelming in hot weather, so for hot clinates you might want to consider the megamat 7 instead of the Megamat 10 or 15.  Arizona of course can be very hot or cold right cold depending on the area of the State and elevation.

I would get a Duo LW for sure. If you have the room then definately get one. One thing about the Megamat DUOs is they have a VERY large pack size and are quite heavy.

And my dog.
But let me say first that I'm very new to camping , done some trips with others and the university but don't have any gear my self, except a Nemo Stargaze, which I mostly bought because I wanted read at the park like an old man.
But lately I have been wanting to spend more time in nature and just finally just made reservation on 6/6-6/8 at local camp spot here in Southern Arizona.
I do plan to rent some stuff from the local university and borrow some stuff from my dad. But what I really want is to invest in first a good sleeping pad first. I also want to use it as a guest bed when I let my relatives and take my bed. I plan to do mostly car camping, so weight shouldn't be an issue.
It seems that EXPED is mentioned the most to be as one of the more comfortable pad. But what I am struggling with is what the size to get. I know I need to get at least the 30 inch width but I wonder if getting a medium or the LW medium would be a good idea or if it would be just to much.  I am an active sleeper and sleep on my side in kind of a military sprawl position and toss turn. I would also like to take my pillows. 
I would appreciate any thoughts any one would have. 
Thanks

I am crazy to get a Exped duo for just me?

To stay within budget you are looking at getting a used REI Kingdom, Marmot Limestone, Marmot Halo, Big Agnes Bunk House/Mad House/Dog House or Nemo Wagontop. 

We camp one to two times a year and would love to go more. We've been borrowing tents from family and friends and were considering upgrading to a pop up camper but cannot find any decently priced in our area. 

We need a new tent for sure and a new sleep setup, we currently use a queen blow up but wake up in pain. My husband isn't a huge fan of the sleeping in the tent part of camping but does it for me and I'd like to make it more comfortable for him. 

The main things he doesn't like are waking up damp and cold, complicated setups and being woken up early from the light. It also can get pretty crowded in the tent as we have a 2.5 year old and 5 year old and tend to bring a lot of stuff. 

Ideal total budget for new tent and sleeping solution would be around $500. 

Possibly relevant information
We camp mainly in Summer but I'd love to do an early or mid fall trip too. We mainly camp in MI and it can be rainy and windy on the drop of a dime (the last tent we borrowed collapsed with us inside during a rain storm) 
We drive to our campsites so I'm not concerned about weight. 

Thank you for reading!

New camping setup for a family of 4

 If you're looking for excellent comfort, and size/weight aren't a concern on your adventure, I highly recommend the MegaMat 10.

 The features of the mat, storage bag, and mini pump make using the mat very user friendly. The mat self inflates in 10-15 minutes and it only takes a couple pumps with the included mini pump to firmly inflate the mat. The fill valve makes it super easy to customize the firmness once you're on the mat. Deflating, rolling, and storing the mat in the bag are very easy and frustration free

Bed comfort in a roll up mat!

 This baby has never met it's match. slow to blow up perhaps? who cares! You can sleep on vesicular basalt or highly irregular weathered granite and think you are in the Hilton. Buy it, they are getting harder to find.

Got rid of my mother in law with this thing

 It is big but very light and convenient. I have used quite a few of Exped's products. 5 mats and at least 3 bags. I have never been disappointed

 Either an AT section hike, hammock, car caping, hunting camp in November, or cub scout camp with my kids...
