"it is super easy to pack down and set up."
"I take the weight penalty to not hate the inflation process ... to my mind that makes it a luxury item."

"My gripe is that they are self-inflating. That means they have foam inside - so they are heavier and bulkier to pack. Not ideal if you are trying to optimize weight/space"
"they take up nearly twice the room in my gear"
"I take the weight penalty ... to my mind that makes it a luxury item."

"My arm goes dead without fail sleeping on the Thermarests"
"Only reason I got rid is because I put a fair bit of weight on I can't seem to shift (went from about 90 to 100kg) and it became uncomfortable."
"just like the rest it is not wide enough. Although it was 25 inches wide, I end up rolling off or I spread out and my legs and arms fall off of it."

"The classic self-inflating Thermarest pads that they have been making for 30+ years are less warm and less comfortable than the Xtherm ... However, for the temperatures you are talking about, you will still want to pair that pad with a foam pad."

"I did pop one on the azt but I set up in a bad spot in the dark where there was lots of pokey things."
