"I sleep all night and no body aches."
"I'm a bigger guy (250 pounds) and a side sleeper as I said and the Nemo Tensor is amazing for me. ... It is the most comfortable inflatable mat I've ever slept on. ... We have frequent "yard camping" trips in our bumpy front lawn and I honestly get as good a night's sleep on this as I do on my bed, side sleeping and all. ... As a side sleeper I was searching for the best mat and this is it."
"Nemo Tensor did the trick for me. ... Had multiple hip surgeries and never thought I could sleep outside and on my side again, and this proved me wrong."

"I still frequently used my Nemo Tensor because it was so space efficient until it let me down in a big way and I spent 3 nights freezing my ass off this April. ... It was too slow of a leak to locate and patch."
"I've found myself getting cold even in spring/summer/fall conditions that don't warrant that."
"I'm always carrying an R2 foam pad in the winter anyway, so I'd rather take the weight penalty and combine it with my Nemo Tensor AS for a total of R7.5"

"I had a Nemo Tensor straight POP with a one-inch tear from a extremely tiny burr on the edge of my quilt pad strap!"
"it popped on me."
"my Nemo Tensor failed 2 days into the JMT. ... I had about 20 previous nights on it. ... It developed a leak in a seam between baffles on the underside. ... The stress and discomfort of dealing with a (relatively) quickly deflating pad every night was not pleasant and I ’m not eager to relive it."

"i was never able to deflate it to a comfortable point without my butt touching the ground below ... instead i always slept on it "overfilled" which led to lower back pain almost every night."
"it hurts my back and hips so bad."
"I am a flopper and tended to roll onto the edges, which made them collapse and dumped me onto the ground."
