MegaMat 15

I have a couple of the Exped wide ccf pads I’d sell if you’re interested at all

I'm a little late but I'll add a +1 for the exped megamat. I bought the extra wide one last year(solo version) for my Subaru Forester. It doesn't inflate that much on its own and I have to inflate it with the pump but it's very easy. I didn't install a platform in my car and I slept really well on it without the slightest back pain the next morning.

I have a campervan and sleep in it several times a month. I’ve had a Megamat 15 and it was the most comfortable I have ever slept on and wanted to put it in my house, we have adjustable beds so wouldn’t work. Now I am laying on my mondoking writing this and I say it’s very close to exped. Changed it due to mods in my van.

Ahh then my suggestion of the mega mat 15 is way outta the question. Great sleep though. Things huge

Exped megamat. Regular size will set you back about $275 at REI but they have big/tall options

Damn this thread is like an endorsement for exped megamats. We have 2 megamats (medium and long) but plan to get a megamat duo for the wife and kid and me on my own single mat.

Keep in mind infants CANNOT sleep on a camping mattress. They lack the back strength to turn themselves over in case they end up on their stomach. Regular air pads and even the MegaMat fully inflated is NOT safe for an infant. You need a very firm mattress for your baby and they should never sleep in the same bed as you. Crib mattresses are usually small enough where they could be brought with you camping. As far as a recommendation for the adults get an Exped MegaMat or one of it's clones. Exped MegaMat 15 (the best on the market) Exped MegaMat 10 ALPS Outback Mat REI Camp Dreamer (note this only has a 1 year warranty) Nemo Roamer 3D Thermarest MondoKing 3D Big Agnes Captain Comfort Sea To Summit Comfort Deluxe Stoic Cloud and Cloud Lux (Stoic is a Backcountry.com brand)

Exped MegaMat 15. There is no comparison for comfort.

The MegaMat 15 is even better than the 10.

I couldn't tell you personally. Never used the Lost Horizons, Featherstone, ALPS Outback Mat, Sea to Summit or Big Agnes Captain Comfort mats. Can't afford to buy all of them and test them =) I have used the Exped MegaMat 10 and 15, Nemo Roamer 3D, Thermarest Mondoking 3D and Stoic Cloud Lux mats and they are pretty close in comfort to the Exped. The Lost Horizon looks suspiciously close to the Stoic Cloud series. The Stoic Lux (which is the same thickness of the MegaMat 10) was fairly comfortable. No complaints.

Try the MegaMat 15. That's pretty damn close to a high quality home mattress.

Exped MegaMat 15 or one of its clones (Sea To Summit Comfort Deluxe, Big Agnes Captain Comfort, Nemo Roamer 3D, ALPS Outback Mat etc). Well worth the money. You will want to get an air pump for this. For the Exped mats the Megapump is totally worth it.

It's cheaper at other online retailers and you can use cashback sites like ActiveJunky to save even more. The MegaMat, especially the 15 model, is totally worth the money. If you can wait until a couple weeks before Memorial Day then you will be able to get it for around 30% off pretty much anywhere.

Nemo Roamer Thermarest Mondoking 3D ALPS Outback Mat Sea to Summit Comfort Deluxe Big Agnes Captain Comfort Stoic Cloud Lux Lost Horizon self inflating mats No matter which one you get: buy an air pump with vacuum capability. These things are amazing for comfort but a pain to deflate. The really big ones you have to body slam to get all the air out. For Exped pads get the MegaPump. For other brands get the FlexTailGear MP3 Pro.

MegaMat 15 is amazingly comfortable for car camping. I am not entirely sold on the MegaMat Ultra, though it is definitely more comfortable than the already comfortable Ultra 7 LW I have.

Consider that if they don't astm test their R value ratings will be straight up bullshit. With that being said if you are looking for a cheaper clone of the Exped MegaMat than the Acacia could be decent. The Store Cloud Lux of the Featurestone are trustworthy clones of the Exped MegaMat. Semi I floating is way more comfortable than air pads, but has a much larger pack size and weight.

The MegaMat 10 is green and the 15 is more like a maroon red. Some alternatives to the MegaMat include: Nemo Roamer 3D Sea to Summit Comfort Deluxe ALPS Mountaineering Outback Mat Big Agnes Captain Comfort Thermarest Mondoking 3D Stoic Cloud and Cloud Lux Heat Foamy REI Camp Dreamer (warning; only a 1 year warranty) UST Outdoors Filmatic

Exped Megamat or one of it's clones. You will never sleep better in a tent than with that thing.

MegaMat is the way

Cot + MegaMat for the win

Exped MegaMat or one of its clones (Big Agnes Captain Comfort, ALPS Outback Mat, Thermarest Mondoking 3D etc) Exped MegaMat Pillow or Nemo Filo Better quality tents from Marmot, Naturehike, Nemo etc. skip the Coleman and core stuff. Tent fan Lighting Flextail gear air pump

Exped MegaMat. You will never buy another garbage Coleman or Intex evera again after sleeping on a MegaMat.
