Exped - DeepSleep Series

This is my suggestion: https://www.rei.com/product/238241/exped-deepsleep-sleeping-pad It's not a sale item, but if you want warmth and comfort, you won't beat it.

Highly recommend the ExPed deep sleep duo.

I have three; Exped Ultra 5R, Exped Flex, and Exped Deep Sleep. Ultra & Flex are my backpacking pads and the Deep Sleep is for car camping. Side and back sleeper that runs hot. Spring/summer/fall in the PNW. Go wide/long since you like to roll around.

Fellow Edmontonian here! You can't go wrong with an exped for your sleeping mat. My wife and I are avid backpackers, and have used a double wide exped for numerous years with zero issue. We also share a double sleeping bag from big agnes, but upgraded to a quilt from Enlightened Equipment this year (haven't gotten out yet to test it however). Which trails are you hiking in Jasper and Banff? When during the season are you going? Altitude and time will also have an impact on the warmth rating you choose.

my husband and i have the exped deepsleep duo pad in long-wide and i can’t stress enough what a game changer it is. we were lucky enough to get it on sale for $200 and i can’t recommend it enough! though we originally wanted the megamat, we’re mega happy with the deepsleep haha

I can’t find a recent recommendation for a good sleeping pad for my husband and I. We had the REI camp dreamer for 3 years, until it started leaking and we couldn’t find the leak. We then tried the exped deepSleep duo, but there was not as much cushion. I was about to just do the dreamer again but looks like they are not even selling it anymore. We also have 2 big Agnes’s insulated single pads. They are great for lighter camping but next to each other we slide away and off the pad, they also do not have the cushion the dreamer did, it’s all just air. I would really like to spend under $300 but not sure that is an option. Any recommendations? We might also be willing to do a cot, but I don’t want anything to take up more space in the car than the dreamer did and I can’t seem to find many 2 person cots.

I am a fan of Exped… I grabbed a DeepSleep duo during the sale. Enough room for 2, But not too big if your solo.. i have a single that has held up well, but decided to upgrade as my kid can sleep on the other side when we camp. I’m 6’0 , 200lbs

I like my Exped Deep Sleep 7.5.

two kids 11 and 8, we use 2x duo size exped deep sleep 7.5 mats, and we split one parent one kid on each mat using double size sleeping bags works well enough, but I expect at some point the kids will want to be in their own sleeping bags, so we will split the double sleeping bags into separate bags one negative about sharing a double size mat is that the firmness will be set by the heaviest sleeper on the mat, so me (260lbs) setting the mat to my comfort level means my son or daughter always will be sleeping on a firm mat

+1 it will transform your car camp sleeping experience. Good in all weather and comfortable enough for any type of sleeper

I have this one, for car camping. It's beyond comfortable.

Exped deep sleep comes in under your price. I have the xl double. Fits perfectly in my tent and is heavenly.

I get the best sleep on this—otherwise I usually wake up every hour uncomfortable, but this is great!
