Dura 5R Duo Sleeping Mat

Exped Dura 5R Duo LW because space is importen and not only packspace

The Exped pads are far and away the best. Comfortable, quiet, reasonable weights, and has two separate air chambers so one person moving doesn't disturb the other too much. They are not rectangular though, so if that's a hard requirement, they might not work. Pads I've tried * Exped Dura 5r Duo Medium (current go to car camping/winter double pad, heavy though) * Exped Ultra 3r Duo Medium (current go to backpacking double pad) * Exped Synmat Hyperlite Duo Medium (borrowed to try out before getting other Exped pads) * Big Agnes Rapide SL (returned, too thick and felt unstable with two people, especially with one air chamber) * Kylmit Double V insulated (sold, not very comfortable, not as warm as it should be, heavy) List of pads I haven't * Nemo has the Quesar, but it's quite heavy for the warmth and durability. * BA has the Divide, but it's really heavy * Paria has the Recharge DW which is heavy but has an rvalue of 4.7 and is cheap

Here's my standard recomendation for double pads: The Exped pads are far and away the best. Comfortable, quiet, reasonable weights, and has two separate air chambers so one person moving doesn't disturb the other too much. Pads I've tried * Exped Dura 5r Duo Medium (current go to car camping/winter double pad, heavy though) * Exped Ultra 3r Duo Medium (current go to backpacking double pad) * Exped Synmat Hyperlite Duo Medium (borrowed to try out before getting other Exped pads) * Big Agnes Rapide SL (returned, too thick and felt unstable with two people, especially with one air chamber) * Kylmit Double V insulated (sold, not very comfortable, not as warm as it should be, heavy) List of pads I haven't * Nemo has the Quesar, but it's quite heavy for the warmth and durability. * BA has the Divide, but it's really heavy * Paria has the Recharge DW which is heavy but has an rvalue of 4.7 and is cheap

People recommending self inflating pads like the MegaMat are off their rocker. Incredibly comfortable, yes. Packs small? Absolutely not. Plus they should be stored unrolled. I find my Exped Dura 5R to be comfortable and it packs very small for a double sized pad (it comes in a single that's even smaller). I have a Big Agnes Boundary Deluxe that's fairly comfortable but doesn't pack as small. If you can go to REI or another camping store they usually have a whole bunch of pads out for you to try for comfort. Keep in mind re-packed size will be ~10% larger than boxed for air pads and ~25%+ larger for self inflating.

Duras are built like tanks, I love em!

Exped Dura is solid as a rock and makes some very warm options at 5R and 8R. It is a bit heavier but also a much thicker denier of fabric. The Ultra series is a lighter version with thinner, more standard denier of material.

Exped is good, several models depending on what kind of camping. For reference I’m 6’ 330lbs. MegaMat/DeepSleep used for car camping. Dura used for backpacking. You may also be able to use furniture foam which would be cheaper and can be cut to different sizes.

I would recommend insulated. The bag insulation will compress underneath you. We have the Exped Dura 5R and sleep in 20deg down bag. Woke up to 24deg F and warm.
