Divide Insulated Sleeping Mat - Regular Wide

I love my Big Agnes Divide. Keeps me toasty in all but winter. Two-person version is $250 on Amazon.

My Big Agnes Divide works for me, and I'm a side sleeper.

This is the biggest drawback I had with the equivalent burnt orange Big Agnes Air Core Insulated, but BA replaced it at no cost within a week ^((although now it's the Divide Insulated Pad in a quite awful yellow and slightly lower r-Value...))

The "Big Agnes divide insulated" model is/was my favorite sleeping pad ever. I have never slept so good before in my whole life outdoors. I also did not have a puncture in it for over 6 months, even while bike packing through Baja, Mexico which is notorious for cacti punctures. It fills up to a pretty big size, and is incredibly comfortable. Look into it! If I was in the USA right now, I'd buy it right away. My previous one was stolen from me in a storage unit burglary, unfortunately.

For "comfort" backpacking I use a Big Agnes Divide Insulated wide pad. 25" wide. Sleeps so good being a side/stomach sleeper. 30oz weight

My favorite pad ever and most comfortable to me is the Big Agnes Divide Insulated. Not crazy expensive and meets the R-Value you’re after

We picked up a Big Agnes Divide Deluxe for my girlfriend and that thing is obscenely comfy. I’m 6’ 215ish male and side sleeper and it stays inflated the entire night, with enough structure to keep my hips from touching the ground at all. Might get another for myself. It weights in at 2 lbs but the quality of sleep for me is insane. Prior to this u had a Nemo Tensotr which refused to stay inflated and a Thermarest ultra light pad which, while comfy, is super prone to punctures and gives me some hip to ground contact after a full night.

They have explicitly said in their original post that their original mats are too heavy for wild camping. Offering up a 2kg mat is merely trading one unsuitable option for another. There is a reason Exped themselves market this as a "base camp mat". My suggestion would be to get a closed cell mat for the dog and something like the Big Agnes Divide Insulated (~800g) for the people. I have one of these and am a side sleeper and they are very comfortable. I'm far from the smallest of people either and it has stood up to my weight (laying and sitting) for over two years so can attest to its durability. And on top of all this, it is £75 cheaper than the Megamat.

I use a Big Agnes Divide insulated mat in wide. It is really comfy, very durable and best of all ridiculously bright yellow.

Welcome 41 year old father of 4, I'm 44 year old father of 4 😁 The right pad will depend on a number of factors such as what position you sleep in, how cold it is, how thick you want a pad etc. I'm a side sleeper and use a Big Agnes Divide XL insulated pad. It took me a few nights to acclimatise to and I had to learn how firm I like it but now I sleep great on it. The other thing that helps is being bloody knackered when you go to sleep. Believe me at the end of the day on trail you will sleep like your batteries have been removed...it is *glorious*.
