Use

When buying a sleeping pad, you should consider where and how you intend to use it, the comfort level you want, and how much money you wanna spend. It is impossible to get everything in one pad, so the selection is always a compromise. This one has the R-rating of 5.7, which refers to the pad’s insulation level. The higher the number is, the warmer your ass stays. To give you a reference point, the summer pads are usually around 1-3, the three-season ones 3-5, and the winter ones 5-7. So, this is a four-season pad. The company says that it is usable down to --23°C degrees Celsius (-11°F), but this is subjective. It also depends on you and your sleeping pad. With an extra foam pad you can increase the insulation for those really cold temperatures if needed.

This sleeping mat is also longer than the regular ones, which makes it more comfortable. And it is made from sturdy 75 Denier 190T polyester. Since it is also very affordable, the downside is that it is quite bulky. If you want a lighter and smaller one, you need to reduce the size/thickness, the insulation, and toughness, or go up quite a bit in pricing.

This is not the pad for ultralight hikers or most people that want to travel long distances on foot. However, it is a very good option for folks who travel by car or who need a spare bed for guests at home or at the cottage. It also fits in an expedition sled nicely, so for wintery ski adventures it is a great option when you don’t want to spend a fortune on a lighter winter pad.
