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.

None of them. Those are way too expensive, sleeping pads are so over priced these days it's ridiculous. Get this one - Nature Hike 5.8 This is arguably the best bang for the buck right now.
I have it and love it. It's robust, comfortable, and light. And it doesn't break the bank. You'll laugh how comfortable and warm it is for the price point. It packs small too.
I also have the Nemo and it has a slow leak after only 6 or 7 outings.
