"My favorite part is that they're soooo quiet. No rustling or rubbed-balloon sound when you roll over."
"It's a little "crinkly" sounding, but otherwise well worth it."

"The other two have a slippery surface that makes the last 1" on each side unusable since you slide off it anyway. ... the slipperiness is annoying for me since it just allows my leg to slide back down/off the pad (this is why I tried and ultimately moved away from the Nemo)."

"But what makes me love the Exped Megamat is that the top layer feels like it stretches, sp the pad contours to your body like memory foam, just less thick"
"thinner and less cushy feeling"

"on 5+ nighter with a bear can, the bulk and weight would no longer be worth it for me."

Similarly, Nemo Roamer double. Both are great and are super comfortable. Saw the Nemo Roamer double on sale recently too.
REI or Nemo (or exped, but imo either get the REI for less or the Nemo if packed size is important to you). I’m talking about their self inflating foam and air mattress in the two person size. And get a backpacking quilt from feathered friends.
I'm assuming you want a self-inflating. I have the Nemo Roamer in the double and love it. There's also the REI Camp Dreamer.
we had the Exped Megamat Duo 10 & switched it out for the Nemo Roamer Double. both are equally great with foam + air, the nemo packs down & carries/stows smaller & easier.
Nemo Roamer Double - best I've ever experienced and I work in the outdoor industry.
We use the Nemo (Double) Roamer when car camping. It is a beast and sleeps so comfortable. If you get the singles, they clip together to make larger mattresses. I would have gone that route had I not gotten such an amazing deal in the double.
I prefer the Nemo Roamer pad. I picked up a double for car camping, however, the singles also have clips at the corner so that they can be linked into a larger matress. Comfortable and insulated well.
My wife and I use the competitive product from Nemo called Nemo roamer double.
I can specifically answer this. So I have tensor 5.4 one. AND the lowest temp I backpacked all season was ~33-34*. Most of the late spring - Fall camping, the lowest temps were ~50 at night. AND dude, this pad is SO warm, I love the pad, so comfy but warm to a point that I can sleep on it in my underwear in 50* and still be warm.. lol I am actually buying a second pad with a lower r value. SO if you think you are sleeping in low temps, buy a pad with high r value. Nemo pads are comfortable as fuck! I sleep like a rock on it. If you are doing mostly summer/early fall backpacking, you can spend a little less money and get a pad with a lower r value.
NEMO Roamer Sleeping Pad. I dont know how but this 4” thick air mattress feels like sleeping on a regular bed. It’s hands down the best choice that I’ve found.
The answer is exped megamat or the Nemo roamed. Expensive, but as comfortable as it can get.
Assuming you are car camping, go for a self-inflating pad. The ones you have to blow up are for backpacking or they are air mattresses. I don’t use air mattresses for camping. A cot would be the other choice. Do you want two separate pads or one double pad for the two of you? Exped Megamat and Nemo Roamer are thick, insulated self-inflating pads that are top of the line but run around $400 for a double mat. The Roamer has a matching sleeping bag, I think the Megamat does too. Chinese knock-offs from Amazon can be decent.
