Self Inflating Sleeping Pad for Camping with Inflating Bag, Compact Lightweight Camping Mat, Outdoor Backpacking Hiking Traveling Airpad Camping Air Mattress

Worked Great, Good Night’s Sleep
Only used one night, but perfect for backpacking. The temps were in the low 40’s and and didn’t feel the cold ground at all. I used a sleeping bag sheet to protect it, as it feels like a hole could happen very easy. It didn’t include a patch with it, but I would recommend having one handy. Folds up great, is very light. The blow bag is a little weird, but actually works well. I’m concerned I’ll lose it. Didn’t lose air at all, a little noisy, but with the sleeping bag sheet it was fine. Great quality and had no problem sleeping.

Comparing it to a NeoAir X-Lite: good value
Update: Amazon won’t let me submit a different review for the mummy variant, so I am updating this review with details on both the rectangular version that I tried first and the mummy version I got to replace it.I tried the rectangular version of this pad for an hour or so to get some initial impressions. I had to send it back as it arrived with a pinhole leak somewhere in it. I then ordered the mummy version and have just received it and will include the relevant details on both in this review. This is a long, detailed review but I am including everything I wish people put in reviews that would help me decide on a product.I have been using a Thermarest NeoAir X-Lite Long-Wide as my primary sleeping pad for the past 7 years. I got a great deal on an open-box one for $99 in 2017. I thought that was a ridiculous price to pay for a pad back then. That pad served me well until this summer when I somehow got a large slice in it during a multi-day backpacking trip in Alaska. Now, new NeoAirs are more than $200 and I am not going to pay that to replace it. I want to find an equivalent at a much better price point. What I like about that pad are the low weight, 25″ width, good stability and good insulating ability. What I don’t like about it is the noise the insulating material makes when I roll around, and that the mummy shape tapers too early so there isn’t enough space to spread my legs when I’m sleeping on my side, which is pretty much all the time.I made a spreadsheet to track all these details and compared big name brand pads as well as many of the inexpensive ones on Amazon. I gave weighting factors to price, weight, r value, length width and height to come up with a score for each one and then sorted by that score. Based on this analysis and black Friday pricing, the Camdoor Mummy version of this bag came out on top. The rectangular version was actually in 4th place based on the higher price for it compared to the mummy. The top 8 were all very close in score so that a $10 difference in price could make a big shift in its placement among the top 8. Other top contenders were the Gear Doctors Ultralight Apolloair (mummy, long-wide version) which actually held the top spot for a day when it had a lightning deal. I didn’t buy that one as the mummy shape looks like it tapers a bit too much and might end up too narrow for my tastes. Also, the long is much longer than I need, and you pay for that with extra weight. There was also a decent offering from Atepa with their insulated ultralight regular/wide pad. It was slightly more expensive, so I went with the Camdoor. Update: After getting the two Camdoor pads and adjusting their weights and dimensions, they slipped down to 7th and 8th place on my spreadsheet based on Black Friday pricing that significantly lowered the price of the Gear Doctors offerings. Some of the specs are not as advertised which caused much of the slide down the rankings. I may also be putting too much weighting on the pad thickness parameter. It may be less important that I currently have it weighted.I initially bought the rectangular version since, according to the marketing material on the page, it is the same weight as the mummy, and I wouldn’t mind the extra width all the way down to my feet. I think the marketing material may be off, however. I weighed mine, in the stuff sack, with the patch kit and elastic band holding the roll and measured it to be 1lb 8.7oz. Or 1.54lbs. Not the 1.3lbs advertised. Maybe that 1.3lbs is only for the mummy version and the specs aren’t updating properly when you select between mummy and rectangular? Unrolling the pad went fine. I inflated it with my Flextail zero mini-pump (which has an adapter that fit this pad perfectly) and climbed on. The pad felt good initially. As a positive, it was quieter and less crinkly than my NeoAir Xlite. Initial support felt good and side sleeping felt good.I next secured the straps for my quilt on it and climbed in. It was comfortable and I could roll around on it. I noticed a bit of side collapse as I got towards the edge, though. This was a slight worry as the rectangular version has vertical tubes running the length of the pad, and my experience with them is they are more prone to side collapse as you get towards the edge of the pad. The horizontal baffles on the NeoAir Xlite don’t have that problem. To combat the side collapse, I inflated the pad some more as I thought it didn’t seem very full. It turned out there was a leak somewhere and it wasn’t staying full.I next played with the inflation bag. It took a few moments of exploring to figure out how to connect it and work it. There is a one-way valve in the inflation sack that you think would be what connects to the pad, but that isn’t it. It is the little grommet on the ‘tail’ of the sack that connects. I don’t know why the one-way valve is there on the sack. I didn’t try inflating the whole pad with it, as I don’t plan to do that ever. It seems like it will take a long time and is a bit awkward to use. I’ll use my Flextail Zero mini-pump as I did with the NeoAir. Much faster and easier.The pad folded and rolled up reasonable easily, though the one-way valve needed to be held open by hand initially as I squeezed the air out of the pad until the pressure got low enough that the valve would just stay open naturally to let the remaining air out.Since I didn’t get to use the pad outside in the cold, I can’t comment on the insulation, though the ad indicates it was rated following industry standards, so I would hope it performs well there.Now for the mummy version. I was excited to get it but immediately disappointed as I unpacked it and put it on my kitchen scale. It also weighed 1lb 8.7oz. Exactly the same as the rectangular model. I then inflated it with my pump. The first thing I noticed is it seemed about the same thickness as the NeoAir Xlite, which has a 2.5″ thickness. It turns out in the fine print of one image above, the rectangular pad is only 2.75″ thick, not the 3.9″ thickness mentioned in the description. That 3.9′ must only apply to the rectangular version but they didn’t update the product page to reflect that difference. Ultimately, that may not matter. The side collapse problems that I had with the rectangular version were not present on the mummy version. It held firm, much like the NeoAir, and I am not worried about bottoming out easily while sitting or kneeling on it. The pad was long enough and seemed wide enough and most importantly was comfortable.As for the weight of the mummy version, the pad, sack, elastic and patch kit came to 24.7 oz total. The inflation sack is 3.15oz of that and the patch kit is 0.2oz. The pad by itself was 21.4oz (1lb, 5.4oz) slightly above the advertised 1lb 4.8oz. I wish they were more specific about the weights and dimensions in the ad. That small difference may not seem like much, but it is enough to drop this pad from first place on my comparison to seventh. Of course, maybe the pads above it are playing fast and loose with their weights as well. All I can compare to is the 1lb 1oz measured weight of the NeoAir.***PROS****Low-ish price, at least relative to competitors with similar specs*Good R-Value*Not very noisy*Packs Up Small*Mummy Version very stable and sturdy***CONS****Questionable quality since the first one I got came with a leak*Sides tend to collapse (rectangular version) when weight gets on them***OTHER****I wish it were a little wider*Pump sack included, though it is a cumbersome way to fill the pad*Weight not quite as good as claimed*Inflation and deflation valve works OKCONCLUSION4 Stars overall for me. The extra weight and the side collapse problems as well as the price premium over the mummy version all combine to prevent the rectangular version getting 5 stars. The leak in mine may point to a lack of durability, or it could just be a manufacturing defect, there is not enough info to decide either way. The mummy version also earns 4 stars. That it is smaller and thinner than the rectangular version yet weighs just as much as the rectangular one is baffling. It also is on the thinner side compared to the competition.UPDATE: After using the mummy version a few more times, I have some additional thoughts to add. I recently used it on a night that got down to 11 degrees F. I was doing a comparison with the Gear Doctors pad that night. I gave up on the Gear Doctors after only an hour. It was way too cold. I could feel the heat getting sucked away from my back. I think it wasn’t living up to its R5.x rating. (See my review under that product for more details). The Camdoor pad did much, much, better. It felt well insulated and did not let the cold through to my back. I slept the rest of the night on it. This pad (the mummy version) is growing on me. If it were just a bit lighter, I’d probably go up to 5 stars on it.

Ultralight Sleeping Pad
This product was used on my most recent excursion to a nearby state park, which is a place where the evenings can be rather cold even during the summer months. Its small size and low weight immediately drew my attention, and I was very delighted by it. Because it weighed just 1.3 pounds, it did not add much weight to my bag, which is a significant advantage for someone like me who is not exactly a minimalist when it comes to traveling with camping equipment. Self-inflating is a feature that completely changes the game. When I think of my old manual air mattress, I shudder at the thought of having to huff and puff in order to get it to the desired level of inflation. With this pad, all I had to do was unroll it, open the valve, and then observe as it went through its own process of expanding. My tent took around ten to fifteen minutes to completely inflate, which allowed me to put up the other components of my tent. After taking a few deep breaths to finish it out, it was all set to go.

Comfortable and good value
I couldn’t figure out how to use the inflation sack. For some reason it has two nozzles, one of which is attached to a tube and no instructions in English.I returned it for a Onetigris pad that has similar stats but a little cheaper price.
