Klymit makes one in insulated and non insulated
If you are cost conscious but want something reliable I’ve had a lot of success with Klymit - I have been using their xl for years without any problems. It doesn’t slosh around air when you move around so it stays super evenly inflated. And it actually packs down to a reasonable size without a ton of effort.
They are okay, but not comfortable or super warm. I use mine as a hammock pad, it works great for that.
This was the first backpacking pad I ever bought - I HATE IT!! Uncomfortable, loud and cold.
Not worth $5.00.
lol $30.00 for r1 Basing quality on length of ownership is something. I own one of these (and paid way more than $30) these pads are garbage, and literally never sees the light of day. I don’t even force this junk on my enemies.
Not comfortable at all, on side, back, in hammock or on ground. These only pro on this pad is price point. Go try any other mat, and you’ll say, oh wow.
Not comfortable, and not for cold weather
nice find. walmart clearance is so hit or miss but when you find something like this its wild. klymit makes solid pads for the price, the insulated ones are legit for shoulder season camping
You sound like a little princess. I've had one of these for years. It gets the job done.
