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?
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.
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.
I have the NeoLoft Ian and I bring it whenever I’m not concerned about weight. Hips are starting to hurt me too. It is significantly more comfortable than any other pad I own. Too heavy for hiking though but if you only canoe and aren’t super concerned about cutting weight I’d go for it. It packs smaller than I had anticipated.
