Therm-a-Rest LuxuryCamp Sleeping Pad

Therm-a-Rest LuxuryCamp Sleeping Pad description

Relax on Therm-a-Rest's LuxuryCamp sleeping pad and get a good night's sleep on your car camping adventures. When you never carry your mattress more than the distance from your car to the tent, there's no reason to worry about weightand every reason to make your base camp or car camping trip as comfortable as possible. The wavy, contoured surface reduces pressure points for a great night's sleep, and Therm-a-Rest's added thickness and ultra-soft stretch-knit fabric increases warmth.

Bottom Line: The choice for those who don't need (or want) to sacrifice comfort for weight.

The Therm-A-rest self inflatable pad seems like a good idea, until you're in the backcountry and you wake up on a frozen ground.I keep telling myself that I really need to like this pad, but I just can't anymore. It has let me down..no pun intended..too many times.If it's not the valve letting out air it's a tiny puncture hole.I think I'm ready to try other non-inflating pads.

I don't backpack often as I have foot pain I have to endure but I enjoy the winter quiet. I wanted a pad that I would not roll off of, was warm and easy to set up. I've only used this XL pad twice in my tent in my yard as a test during a snow storm and also when it was about 7 degrees. Both times I was comfortable, never rolled off of it and it gave great protection from the cold ground. The contoured surface and stretch knit fabric really helps with the comfort. I pull a sled in the winter so the 5 lb. weight isn't an issue but I may even try it in the spring and fall as the comfort may be worth the extra weight. I'm looking forward to using it in the cold quiet of the north woods!
