I got a 4" self-inflating pad from Naturehike. It has foam inside so it inflates quiclkly and is pretty supportive while also letting you sink in a little and has snaps to connect to another pad if needed. I used it on a road trip through multiple campsites and it's one of my favorite pieces of camping gear so far. The only downside it's still fairly large when rolled up, but it's not a bit deal for me since I mainly car camp.
How long did it take for that to happen? I bought a NatureHike self inflating mattress for half the price of the Decathlon to test out self inflating mattresses. It only lasted for a year of almost daily use before the foam went flat, no leak though.
Get one from Nature Hike. We use **[Nature Hike Ultra Light Sleeping Pad](https://s.shopee.ph/8Kh5Xzq2oF)** para hindi ganoon ka hassle and kabigat dalhin. Even sa tents namin we always opt to choose UL. Portable rin ng storage niya maliit lang talaga. But, still your choice. Okay din if yung automatic na bilhin mo para hindi na kayo mahirapan mag inflate. My friend have it, yung **[Nature Hike Automatic Inflatable Pad](https://s.shopee.ph/4ArWaUxfp3)**. Mas thicker siya and mas may cushioned of course, compared sa UL.
Actually yes, since mas okay cushioning niya.
You can get some really good light weight mats with high R ratings, but they're not cheap. They are, however, well worth the money. Summit camping or long treks you'll want something that keeps you warm, is comfortable enough for a proper sleep and not too heavy. Unfortunately that means spending a bit. You can but something a bit cheaper and a bit heavier if you can rely on fitness to carry the extra weight. But don't save money by dropping comfort. And insulation is an important part of the comfort
It really depends on your budget, height, tent size, sleeping style etc. I have a thermorest that is good. And I think the larger one is a naturehike. I'd highly recommend that one for comfort.
My nature hike didn't even last one night, for what my anecdote is worth.
8.8R value is fake, Naturehike pads are pretty light and comfortable but are nowhere near pads like thermarest, Exped or STS. This is not possible for this kind of design and lightness to be so warm.
