Inflatable Sleeping Mat, Compact Lightweight Camping Mat for Hiking

Cheap lightweight camp mat, packs small, good for backpacking easy to blow up without a pump. Good item 👍

not bad for the price. If camping it is small and light and easy to inflate. A little noisy when you turnover

OK, what this mat isn't is a one stop 4 season solution. As it has no internal insulation the R value is low.On the other hand it is dirt cheap. I weigh a bit north of 100kg and have used this mat a few times with no problems. I use it on top of a z folding closed cell foam mat. This both protects the bottom, adds insulation, and adds a bit of comfort.The quoted weight is spot on more or less. I make it 506g. I haven't used the bag it comes in. When I pack up in the morning I fold it in half, roll it up, slip an elastic strap round it and stick in in the bottom of my rucsac.So far no issues, Cost under £20. At the price can't fault it. My only problem is that camping with the dogs they want to be on it. I am buying a second one as a spare and to use if the dogs are with me..

Having used this for a few festivals, I have found it to be rather comfortable. Using traditional inflatable mattresses I found them to give me a bad back and would deflate by the morning. With this I get no more back pains and I would definitely recommend using a pillow with it as it is not included.

I’ve had two of these and they are comfy light and small but beware, they will only last a few trips , ( the guarantee period ! ) and then catastrophically fail and you will have to throw them away. My most recent one had about 10 leaks that suddenly appeared out of nowhere on the sealed edges , just after the guarantee period was over.

Great sleeping mat for festivals and camping where you want light and compact gear. The packed size is small and really light. It’s slightly longer to inflate than a self inflating but is also a cheaper option for this reason, having said this i think it took me under 5 mins to blow up and you could always use a pump to speed this up. Additionally, its much smaller than the self inflating options and therefore easier to carry. It was more comfortable than a roll mat and distributes you weight well, obviously not as comfortable as proper blow up mattress. I think it’s the best option I’ve tried for camping where you have to carry your own gear.

I own both of these lightweight backpacking mattresses. The Thermarest ProLite Plus is a higher end product costing roughly 5 times as much as this Unigear Ultralight model. Here is my comparison.Pack Size:The Unigear is less than half the pack size of the Thermarest. The reason for this is that the Unigear deflates down to a plastic sheet while the Thermatest always look like a mattress even when deflated because the inner bed is made up of lightweight foam and independent support nodules.Warmth:The addition of the foam and support nodules gives the Thermarest a much higher R value of 3.2 versus only 1.6 for the Unigear. This means that the Thermarest is warmer and a better choice when the weather is approaching freezing or below.I did use the Unigear Ultralight in 1 degree C weather recently combined with a sleeping bag rated down to -5 degrees comfort & -10 extreme. The compressed parts of the bag contacting the Unigear pad felt cool, but not uncomfortably cold. However, the Unigear pad is definitely not conducive to quality sleep in these temperature conditions. If you are thinking of using this pad in ~ 5 degrees or below, I would combine it with another pad to raise the R-value.Support:I am nearly 100kg, but the Unigear is thick enough to keep my hip above the ground while side sleeping. While comfortable, it is not nearly as firm as the Thermarest. The foam & independent support nodules in the Thermarest give the option of a much firmer mattress when fully inflated.Noise:This is the first thing I noticed about the Unigear when climbing onto it. It makes a LOUD crinkling noise when moving around. It sounds like it is made out of the packing paper that Amazon put in your parcels.On the other hand, the Thermarest makes no noise at all, though to be fair Thermarest's ultra lightweight inflatable-only product called the "NeoAir Light" is also famous for its annoying crinkling noise.But having used this pad on a couple of real trips now I can honestly say that the noise did not bother me. Yes it is noisier than my other pads, but it didn't bother me even on a quiet windless night.Size:The Unigear is much longer and wider than the Thermarest. It is a very generous sleeping space. Also, the Thermatest has a tapered coffin shape that narrows at the feet while the Unigear remains rectangular throughout. I do prefer the rectangular shape of the Unigear because my feet often end up on the tent floor with Thermarest.Weight:Not much difference. The Unigear is 507 grams vs 670 grams for the Thermarest.Inflation:The Thermatest is "Self inflating" which I think is vastly overrated. You still have to give it at least half a dozen good puffs to top it off. On the other hand, the Unigear probably requires 10 to 12. It is a non-issue for me personally. Both mattresses are easy to setup.Summary:The Unigear Ultralight is an ultra compact but comfortable mattress with superior reliability to that of its low cost competitors. I'd recommend it for casual camping or backpackers that want an ultra compact but comfortable mattress. I think it is also a good compact item for a small bug-out bag.I would be reluctant to take the Unigear Ultralight on a snow trip for example due to the low R-value and the lack of safety margin with it being an air only mattress. The one thing I would try to improve is to find a less noisy surface material. But at ~ £20, it is difficult to find fault with this mattress.The Thermarest Pro Light Plus on the other hand, is warmer, quieter a lot more comfortable especially if you prefer a medium or firmer mattress.

Easy to inflate and pack away, but so thin, not comfortable at all. Had to layer it on top of blankets and still barely slept

Ho comprato questo materassino in occasione di un viaggio aereo della durata di 24 ore complessive. Si gonfia in pochissimo ed è modellabile quindi ho potuto gonfiarlo in aereo e usarlo da seduta. Anche durante lo scalo l'ho messo su una panchina e mi sono fatta un pisolino. Molto leggero ma resistente. Lo consiglio.

Väger nästan 100kg och den var bekväm för mig. Helt oväntat!

super goed ..ff blazen en super comfy

Employé une dizaine de fois en camping, aucun problème a signaler la membrane anti retour marche bien et le matelas est simple à replier.La taille est grande il remplit totalement la tente en longueur.Très utile !A voir la tenue dans le temps.

Für den Kroatienurlaub gekauft. Sitzt sich auf Steinstrand gut. Schwimmt perfekt. Leicht zu verstauen. Macht einen robusten Eindruck.
