Exactly what I was looking for!
Ok, hold it right there! Before you look at the 1 star reviews for reasons to question this purchase, let me just clarify the following pros: So It takes about 9 to 11 breaths to fill it and the valve has a one way fill so no need to hold your mouth over it. The first night I inflated it, I let it sit and the next day had to blow a few more breaths in it. I’m sure because the fabric stretches when new and this should minimize over time. The second night I slept on it, it stayed inflated the whole night! Now embarrassingly, I am a whopping 230 pounds (liar, ok 240, geez!) and I am a side sleeper! Hold it down ladies, I’m taken! Lol! Anyway, when I was laying flat on my back, or on my side, I could not feel the floor. The only time I felt the floor was when I rolled over, or got up, and my weight was focused on a small area, however, it was very minimal. This pad is a little over 2 inches wide so if you’re really a big person you may need a thicker pad. Anyway, when I woke in the morning, my hips and back felt great! I cannot speak to the R value or insulation qualities, because I simply have no plan to use this during very cold weather. If that is your plan, than I would suggest you choose a different pad. However, for the price and functionality this is a great, budget friendly choice! And the green color is only like $26! Now let’s go over the put away factor! Many times we get things and they are packed so well, they can never be put back in the way they arrived! However, that is not the case here! The mat deflates by way of pressing the one way valve, then you just fold twice length wise and roll it like a sleeping bag! I had no issue getting it back in the mesh sack. And wow, does it compress down! It truly is the size of a small water bottle! Anyway, based on other reviews, if you do purchase this item, please use it before you head out camping! I mean, every gear purchase should be tested before you use it in real life! Manufacturers aren’t perfect, and if you do find an issue with the valve or whatever, returns are possible ias long as you don’t wait months to learn your item is defective. As for Cons: the only issue I had was deflation, you have to squeeze all the air out while holding the one way valve in. It’s not a dealbreaker, but if there’s a way to make that valve stay open, that would save on the put away time! Anyway, I thank TOGR for recommending this to me! Please watch his YouTube! No I was not compensated or asked to write this! Neal

Light weight, compact, comfortable, and affordable.
I needed a lightweight, compact, inflatable sleeping pad for a motorcycle trip that would include a night of camping. This item fit the bill perfectly! I have slept on different inflatable mattresses and pads before, and I have always found them uncomfortable. Most of the single pads are basically swimming pool rafts, and even my large Coleman inflatable queen leaves a lot to be desired. When i pulled this pad out of the packaging and inflated it, my wife and I both looked at each other thinking "no way!" It was disturbingly thin, and made from very light material, although it did have a feeling of sturdy construction (far more so than the last "pool raft" I tried to sleep on). She laughed and said: "do we have time to order you a real one?" Then we laid it down on the kitchen floor and tried it out. We were both surprised at how soft yet supportive this thin little sleeping pad was. She even turned over on her side and was surprised to find that her hip wasn't diggin into the floor. So I figured I'd give it a shot, worst case being a crappy night's sleep. Fast forward a few days, I arrive at the campsite, set up my stuff, and lay down. I tried to pick a piece of ground that was as level as possible as grassy. Down goes the tarp, then tent, then inflated pad, and sleeping bag on top. That night I did get a crappy night's sleep, but it was from noise (bunch of drunks), not discomfort. That pad and sleeping bag combo was unbelievably comfortable! I expected to have all kinds of trouble playing with pressure and trying to get it just right, especially considering how thin this pad is when inflated. No fuss, no muss....I just inflated it to max, capped it off, and laid on it. Zero adjustment necessary. I tried laying on my side and my back (I am NOT a stomach sleeper, so cannot comment on how well that would work), and found both positions comfortable. The truly telling thing about this endeavor: when I got up in the morning I had ZERO aches, pains, stiffness, etc. I felt like I had laid in a real bed all night, and that still blows my mind! "Take down" was simple: just pull the little rubber "check valve" flap out a little, let the air exhaust, fold twice and roll...then stuff it back in the little included drawstring pouch. Am I glad I bought this sleeping pad? HELL YES! If you need something compact, lightweight, AND comfortable (as well as affordable), THIS IS IT!

7 yes and going
Still using this 7 years later. A little narrow bit that is okay.
