 Now, the single mat or the long and extra wide mat weighs about three and a half kilos and the double mat here, a little over six kilos, around 6.1 kilos. Now, under the fabrics that the mat's made of, the top is a 50 denier tricone nylon. It's got kind of a stretch feel to it

 So if you have a second person sleeping on a double mat like this, obviously that makes it tighter. You can let more air out again. But because of this extra thickness, you can really customise how comfortable the mat is. Whereas the thinner mats in the range, if you let a bit of air out to make it softer, as soon as you you sort of sit up or put your elbow down like this, you're hitting the ground and it becomes uncomfortable

 Now, under the fabrics that the mat's made of, the top is a 50 denier tricone nylon. It's got kind of a stretch feel to it. So if you let this mat get soft, when you're lying on it, you kind of sink down into the fabric and the fabric stretches with you to make it really comfortable. I'll adjust this and show you, so how far down you can go

 We thought Exped had the market sort of when it come to comfortable camping mats, but they bedded themselves again with the Exped Mega-Mat Max 15 centimeters of comfort. Let's check it out. Hey guys, Ben from Snowys here. Today with the most comfortable camping mat I've ever seen

Exped MegaMat Max 15

 The last camping experience I had, I was so uncomfortable, I was going to give up on it, camping all together, because I was sleeping on a cot and it was not working for me at all, it just was a horrible experience, I'm done with that. Anyway, it's really wonderful, I don't bottom out, my butt ain't hitting the ground, like I said, I don't have it deflated very firm per se, and I'm a side shift sleeper, and I'm also getting the Velcro stuck to the wall, that's a pain, I'm a side shift sleeper, and nothing on me hits the floor, and I can tell it's just really comfortable. Time will tell, I'll give it a follow up review after some time out on the trail and talk about whether it loses air overnight and all that kind of nonsense, and you kind of get an idea how, I don't like my elbows coming off the sides of my bed, or my air mattress or whatever, so I always get the widest possible thing, my elbows are fully on here, it's 30 inches wide, and my feet don't dangle off the end, I actually put on a pad, and there's still extra room on each end of me, because I'm only 5 feet 8 inches by the way, and I weigh about 190 which is too much, but whatever. So anyway, I'll get back to you, durability, how comfortable it is out on the trail, it's very expensive, I happened to take advantage of the fact that I had a 20% off coupon at REI, and I bought it from them in case I hate this thing, and they're pretty good about taking stuff back, and so I mean the retail price on it I think is $297 or something which is just ridiculous, it's way too much money, but you know, I want to sleep good, sleeping is the most important thing out there to me, I don't want to not want to go camping because I can't get comfortable, anyway I got the 40% off, still paid 200 some dollars, you can do the math with that, but we'll see how it goes, peace out

 And the material on the top, this Trico, I believe is how it's pronounced. It's real nice, it's not sticky to the touch or anything, feels pretty good and stuff. Nice material, got no beef with that. This thing's thick, and it's awfully expensive, so it better be pretty comfortable

 Time will tell, I'll give it a follow up review after some time out on the trail and talk about whether it loses air overnight and all that kind of nonsense, and you kind of get an idea how, I don't like my elbows coming off the sides of my bed, or my air mattress or whatever, so I always get the widest possible thing, my elbows are fully on here, it's 30 inches wide, and my feet don't dangle off the end, I actually put on a pad, and there's still extra room on each end of me, because I'm only 5 feet 8 inches by the way, and I weigh about 190 which is too much, but whatever.

 Nice material, got no beef with that. This thing's thick, and it's awfully expensive, so it better be pretty comfortable. I found it's kind of a little roly-poly, I have it, I don't know if I have too much air under it or too little, I think it's about right for me, but it's kind of, you know, you roll to the one side a little bit, in my opinion. But I'll tell you once, once you get out here, like right now I have it deflated a little bit from the comfort level I want or what, the firmness or whatever, and your mileage will vary of course, but it is just Cadillac, it's really comfortable, I've got no problem with it whatsoever

Exped Megamat Max 15 LXW - Initial Thoughts

 Warmth and Insulation Packing high-end, open-cell foam, the MegaMat Duo is about as warm as it gets for a self-inflating mat. To preface, a mattress’ ability to insulate you from the ground is measured in R-value, and a higher number indicates more warmth and better protection. In this case, the MegaMat Duo has an R-value of 8.1, which is at the very high end of the spectrum

 In fact, it’s no worse for wear after fending off my 50-pound Labrador's sharp nails. Similarly, the 75D polyester bottom is confidence-inspiring even on rocky terrain (although it's always best to use the pad inside a tent or on top of a less abrasive surface). Finally, the pad’s sealed seams are free from defects and irregularities, and the valves still look and function like new with no leaking. Weight and Packed Size At 9 pounds 14

Sitting towards the top of the premium camping mattress market is Exped’s MegaMat Duo 10. This double-wide, luxurious pad easily sleeps two, and its generous cushioning and high R-value make it a great companion for year-round adventures. After spending many nights on the MegaMat Duo, we’ve come away with high praise: It’s incredibly plush and comfortable, is made with high-quality materials that can withstand outdoor use and abuse, and its self-inflating design is very user-friendly. Below we break down our experiences with the MegaMat Duo 10

 But the bump in price comes with better warmth (6.5 compared to the MegaMat’s 8.1 R-value) and increased durability (the Comfort Deluxe uses 30D along the top compared to the Exped’s 50D, although both have 75D bases). All told, while both pads put a major focus on comfort, we prefer the Exped for the notable boosts in both durability and insulation

Switchback Travel | Exped MegaMat Duo 10 Review

 Now this is available in about five different sizes. I've got the long and extra wide here at the moment. In behind that, we've got the one that's well known, the Mega-Mat 10 once again in the long and extra wide size. I think that's available in about five sizes as well

 Moving on to the Mega-Mat 10 here. Now this top is different. This is a 50 denier stretch nylon. So as you sort of soften the mat, you sink into this a bit more and it feels a little more comfortable

 Exped are renowned for the quality and comfort of their camping mats. I've got three of the best here today to talk you through the features. This is the Deep Sleep, the Mega-Mat 10, and the Mega-Mat Max 15. Let's check them out

 The sides are 75 denier, same 75 denier polyester as is the base 75 denier polyester as well. And then moving up to the Mega-Mat Max 15. Shares the same fabrics as the Mega-Mat 10 with this 50 denier stretch tricone nylon upper that will stretch with your body and allows you to sink into the mat. 75 denier sides and 75 denier base as well

 Now just on thickness, if we bring them all together at the end here, you can see that the Deep Sleep mat here is seven and a half centimetres thick. The Mega-Mat up to 10 centimetres thick here. But the Deep, the Mega-Mat Max 15, 15 centimetres of comfort. So this guy here, as you go up in thickness, you're able to adjust the comfort of your sleep more and more by making the mat softer without bottoming out when you're sleeping

Offering quieter, more supportive sleep at a tiny packed size, Tensor ultralight sleeping pad stands apart as the ultimate backcountry adventurer’s best friend. Updated with a zero-profile, micro-adjustable valve and included Vortex pump sack, NEMO's lightest sleeping pad uses premium 20D fabrics to shave grams without sacrificing plush comfort. Spaceframe baffles offer unparalleled stability, weight distribution, and a quieter sleeping experience by using low-stretch die-cut trusses to eliminate springiness and keeping your elbows and hips from poking through to the ground. Insulated versions are updated with two layers of suspended Thermal Mirror metalized film, resulting in a lighter, remarkably quiet sleeping pad as compared to the competition, which can be noisy and crinkly at night.

Switchback Travel

Nemo is perhaps best known for their backpacking tents, but they’ve assembled a solid lineup of quality sleeping pads. The Tensor Insulated is a case in point, combining a lightweight and packable build with a comfortable sleeping platform and generous 3 inches of cushion that nicely isolate you from the ground below. For reference, this is a notable half-inch increase over the popular Therm-a-Rest NeoAir XLite below, which is particularly beneficial for side sleepers. We also love Nemo’s intuitive Vortex pump sack that requires very little effort: Simply snap it onto the flat, micro-adjustable valve, blow lightly into the opening, and roll the collar down to force air into the mat. All in all, the Tensor’s blend of comfort, build quality, and ease of use make it a standout on the market.

It’s worth noting that we had the aforementioned XLite in this top spot until recently, but the Tensor Insulated has overtaken it for a few key reasons. For starters, the Therm-a-Rest’s included pump sack can’t match the speed or convenience of the Tensor’s bag, and the XLite’s internal baffling means it’s louder and crinklier throughout the night. Additionally, despite a slightly thinner 20-denier fabric (the XLite’s is 30D), the Tensor has proven to be similarly durable in our experience while coming in at $10 less. And with a recent update, the Nemo now has an identical R-value of 4.2 (the non-insulated version checks in with an R-value of 2.5). You do save a little weight with the Therm-a-Rest, but many will find the Tensor’s extra cushion worth the tradeoffs (ourselves included).See the Nemo Tensor Insulated

Ultimately if you got your load lighter that would allow you to carry more for her if need be.

Some people use 2 person quilts. It’s certainly lighter. But it might not work if one person sleeps colder than the other. I’ve never done this

 But it might not work if one person sleeps colder than the other. I’ve never done this.

Title says it all. My wife hurt her back and shoulder and while she loves hiking and the wondrous outdoors, she can't carry much comfortably for the foreseeable future.

I've already got a pretty good UL gear addiction ([https://lighterpack.com/r/7lvrbl](https://lighterpack.com/r/7lvrbl)) but I figured I could take on more weight so she could carry less. 

**So to the question(s)**

* What efficiencies can be gained by packing for 2 instead of 1? Are 2 person sleeping sleep systems better than 2x one person equivalents?
* Are there any light packs out there that would put less stress on the lady's back/shoulder? I'm considering packing all the light &amp; soft stuff separately from the heavy/poky bits (ie on my poor back).
* What's considered the best UL sleeping pad for *comfort*? I'm willing to lie on rocks if it saves oz but comfort wins here.

Ultralight (so my wife doesn't have to carry much)

 but I know people who have had this pad for years now and haven't had a problem with that. I've had the pad myself for almost eight months now and haven't had any problems and I've opened and closed this valve probably 100 to 200 times already. Sustainability and ethics is I think one of the most important topics when it comes to gear or any purchase that you're making and I've had some conversations with Nemo and I've been very interested in the ways that they're looking to improve the sustainability and ethical manufacturing of their products. First up, they audit their manufacturing processes and with that they look to make sure that their products are being made as sustainably as possible, as well as making sure that human rights are being maintained at their manufacturing plants

 There's a little rubber grommet at the end of the inflation bag here. You just stick that into the valve until it clicks in and then there's a narrow opening at the top and you just blow into that from about six inches away. Six inches to a foot away and it'll inflate the bag using the Bernoulli effect, so it creates a vortex that sucks air into the bag. that means you have to use less breath in order to get air into the bag and then inflate the pad

 But enough talking with an empty sleeping pad here. Let's use the inflation bag here and get it inflated. There's a little rubber grommet at the end of the inflation bag here. You just stick that into the valve until it clicks in and then there's a narrow opening at the top and you just blow into that from about six inches away

 So what you get with this sleeping pad is the stuff sack as well as an inflation bag that you can use. You get a little bit of a repair kit in here as well that just has some some patching materials. and then here is the inflation sack that you can use to blow up the pad and it works really, really well and we'll go over that a little bit here. All of this together weighs 615 grams, but the pad alone weighs 540 grams on my scale, which is the same as what Nemo advertises, which is really good

NEMO TENSOR Sleeping Pad Review | Best Sleeping Pad? |

 Also check out places like Mountain Steals and Backcountry for other sales this weekend.

Like others have said, get the a new pad, a quilt and a lighter pack. I would recommend UGQ Bandit quilt and the Osprey Exos 58 pack. Once you use that suspension system on the Osprey and don’t end up with swamp back after a long day of hiking, there’s no going back. Get the Xlite large pad or Nemo Tensor if you’re a bigger person or a side sleeper

I've been getting more into backpacking this season vs car camping, and with the onslaught of sales from REI/backcountry et al this weekend I'm looking to finally pull the trigger on swapping out some overweight/bulky car-camping gear for something more reasonably sized so I feel like less of a jenga tower on the trail. But I'm getting overwhelmed with the options and what to attack first. 

[https://lighterpack.com/r/4i1a3b](https://lighterpack.com/r/4i1a3b)

Obvious candidates for replacement are the big ones - sleeping pad (3lbs 7 oz), sleeping bag (also 3lbs 7 oz), and tent + footprint (4lbs 8oz), for a combined 12 lbs. 

&amp;#x200B;

On sleeping pads, I'm a tosser/turner/side sleeper, but I tend to run warm. Prioritize comfort/not falling off, and not much bothered by noise (tend to use earplugs anyway). Haven't tried closed-cell pads but am open to them. Likely plan to lash to outside of pack so being ultra-compact is not a concern, though would prefer smaller than my current one, which is a beast.

On sleeping bags, since I'm a tosser/turner, I'm concerned about mummy-style bags, but they seem extremely popular. My current bag is rated a 30f, and I don't think I've ever (or intend to any time soon) camp in environments that come close to testing that limit. Was looking at REI's deal of the day [https://www.rei.com/rei-garage/product/187401/kelty-cosmic-40-sleeping-bag](https://www.rei.com/rei-garage/product/187401/kelty-cosmic-40-sleeping-bag) and trying to decide if shedding 2 lbs, losing 10f, and trying a mummy bag is a winning formula for only $70.

On tents, I really like my current one for ease of setup, warmth, and spaciousness (a bit overkill for one person though). But the weight is a drag, and I'd like something with a vestibule. 

Where can I get the most bang for my buck this weekend? Appreciate any thoughts!

Looking to shed some weight/bulk on my sleep/shelter system with these memorial day sales - suggestions?

 Or once it's installed, you can open up the top and you have a stopper so you can breathe into this stop and none of the air escapes. So I will go ahead begin inflating this and let's count together how many breaths it takes. I'm getting warm. This is going to take a while

 The valve is open, just the top layer and none of the air is escaping. The yellow side is the front, the gray side is the bottom. Before going any further in this episode, let's go over some stats concerning this pad. First off, there are numerous versions of this sleeping pad

 You can lay on this any way that you want to and you don't have to worry about feeling the ground underneath you. As soon as you lay down on this, you begin feeling your heat radiating back to you and that's thanks to the insulation that aluminum film on the inside. The only time that you will feel the ground is like say if you sit up and you have only the butt pushing into the earth, you will feel it then. But with your body on the pad you do not feel anything at all

 I'm getting warm. This is going to take a while. All right. So we're at 20 and I'm dizzy, so we're looking at 22 23 breaths depending on how firm you want this so you can see there

The Most Comfortable Sleeping Pad I Have EVER USED - Insulated Nemo Tensor Ultralight Sleeping Pad

 I'm looking for minor improvements mostly (I can't really see a pathway to 10lb BPW without dropping big money on DCF gear) and making sure I have reasonable climate protection. Less weight would be nice, as I'd like to skip the onion valley resupply but I just don't know how my body will respond to that kind of altitude to do that kind of mileage. I'm a fairly competent runner but at sea level. Thanks for the input!

That depends where the hip pain is at. If the hip pain is at the bottom of the sleeping side, you'll want a thicker but deflated pad. This is caused by the sleeping pad being too hard and deflating it will help. In the case that your hip feels cold after deflating, get a CCF or something soft and place it under your hip area

Hi everyone, I'm really starting to suffer on a night with hip pain (I'm a side sleeper). I feel like I'm waking up constantly to roll over on to my other side. Wake up and repeat. I have a thermarest neoair. I find I'm unable to sleep on my back or front.

Any ideas or solutions to help with this? Anyone tried sleeping pills to help them sleep when camping. I'm reluctant to do this in case there is something I need to deal with in the night. I have recently introduced my son (9) to the hobby and would be worried about not hearing him if he needed me in the night.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I tested the Neoair for leaks but couldn&#39;t find any, however while it was drying my son sat on it (light as a feather daddy) and all the ribs at the top have come unglued/welded giving me a huge pillow. It also deflated over night. So now I&#39;m in the market for a thicker mat and probably a warmer one too. I agree with many comments that comfort trumps weight. I&#39;m tempted by many of the suggested mats and now have a good shopping list to consider. I&#39;m 6 foot 4 but skinny so need a long mat but doesn&#39;t need to be wide.

I&#39;m from the UK so hammocks are out of the question I&#39;m afraid. Certainly where I live (Yorkshire Dales) there are very few woodlands left.

I have started a new regime of stretching my hip and yoga. I&#39;m also practicing sleeping on my back which went surprisingly well last night.
