    Another Air Mattress Thread (but there's sales!)

    Hi folks,

    Hoping for some input on getting a new air mattress.  I'm a side sleeper, and the MEC Reactor 3.8 is leaving me numb on one side.  I'm hoping for something relatively lightweight like I'm used to, but a bit more cushy.  Willing to buy once, cry once, but I see there's a bunch of good sales right now.

    Long story short, if you had a choice of these, which would you buy and why?

    Nemo Tensor Trail Ultralight Insulated 
    Therm-a-Rest Trail Pro 
    Sea to Summit Ether Light XR Insulated
    Therm-a-Rest NeoLoft 

    Right now I'm torn between the smaller and more lightweight Tensor Trail and the supreme comfort of the heavy and big NeoLoft.
    Any other suggestions?

    Thanks!

    Ian,
    I'd recommend the NeoLoft.  Heavy for sure, but the comfort and sleep quality have me sold.  Best backcountry sleeps I've had since getting one.  
    I've trimmed weight elsewhere, so the extra grams or so hasn't been noticeable.
