"I've had a sea & summit dual-chamber pad for 8 years or so, never had a leak ... We live in CO and go camping 8-10x a year, for 3 or 4 day weekends each time."

"It is a dual-chamber sleeping pad, so you can tune the bottom chamber to provide protection from the ground and top chamber to give you the right level of cushion. ... None of the other pads on the market can do this, including celebrated Therm-a-Rest and Exped offerings."
"The dual air chambers prevent you from bottoming out when side sleeping"

"Or if it's little seam weld pinholes, take advantage of the warranty (I use Sea 2 Summit pads mostly). ... but i'm not really talking about those kind of holes (that can be patched) - i mean the phantom leaks that can't be identified or fixed easily, like seam welds, valve stuff, etc. (especially on quilted/dimpled baffles) ... All my sea to summit pads have developed stress pinholes in the dimple welds, nothing to do with anything I could have done or prevented as a user, it's a common defect with that style of baffle. ... I talked to someone at Sea to Summit once who said that those type of failures are not due to external puncture/abrading but actually weaknesses that can occur when the seam welds are done that get exacerbated/worse over time. Typically they occur under the torso/arm area and are due to more contact from elbows specifically. ... sometimes (like quilted/dimpled baffles) the pads are just prone to little defects that emerge the longer the pad is used that no amount of babying can prevent. ... No matter how much you baby your sleeping pad, if it has a weak valve attachment, it's gonna develop a leak."
Sea-to-Summit Comfort Plus Insulated. It is a dual-chamber sleeping pad, so you can tune the bottom chamber to provide protection from the ground and top chamber to give you the right level of cushion. None of the other pads on the market can do this, including celebrated Therm-a-Rest and Exped offerings. Exped Megamat is still more comfortable, but it won't fit inside a kayak and weights a lot more. S2S Comfort Plus is the next best thing.
I have both of these coincidentally. The plan was to take my Insulated on trips I’m packing light, and my Large S.I on trips where weight/size isn’t a factor. Both comfortable, but I personally enjoy the SI’s flat surface over the Insulated with their Air spring design. The SI has a R value of 4.1, and the insulated 4.0 so they’re basically the same for warmth. If size wasn’t a factor I’d go S.I if I had to choose one. Can’t go wrong with either one of these IMO
I've had a sea & summit dual-chamber pad for 8 years or so, never had a leak - my wife has a lighter, single chamber pad and also hasn't had any leaks in the same timeframe. Could just be you're getting cheap pads...
I'd go for the insulated one. That "air sprung cell" structure is pretty much the comfiest I've ever tested, and going from self-inflatable to airpad was a big upgrade in sleeping comfort for me, even with another brand.
Check out the Sea to Summit Comfort Plus XL - it's literally designed for bigger folks. The dual air chambers prevent you from bottoming out when side sleeping (i'm also a side sleeper at 260lbs). Usually around $199 but goes on sale sometimes and packs down surprisingly small.

I'm pretty much exactly like you. Tried and DONT LIKE: Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Topo Luxe. It's thick! But the horizontal baffles suck for side sleepers. Sea to Summit Comfort Plus Insulated. Not thick enough. Hip pain. Noisy. The one I want to try next: Therm-a-Rest NeoLoft.
I’m a side sleeper as well and I stopped using my Nemo tensor so much because of the potato chip bag noise effects heh. This past winter, I’ve used the Sea to Summit comfort plus. It is easily the most comfortable pad I’ve ever used for side sleeping. And inflates and deflates easily. Highly recommend!
I'm a big fan of the sea to summit pads. If I was buying now I'd buy the comfort plus. 6'5" 250ish side/stomach sleeper
I had the same challenge recently, as in buying my first pad. I went with Sea to Summit comfort plus in the end. Paid 70 quid with delivery. I tested it in a 2 day camp and was impressed by the quality and “warmth”. But it is to the heavy/bulky side.
I recently got a Sea to Summit comfort plus and used for the first time at 1 degree and I was nicely warm. I got it for around 70 quid. It is to the heavy side though and in the summer I intend to buy a light mat but for the price I was very impressed with the quality and warmth.
