Sleeping mat quick review

[JohnClimber]

After 3 nights on my new nemo 2022 tensor insulated regular wide sleeping mat here's my quick review.

Against
A bit pricy
Weighs a bit more than my light weight mats
Not the smallest pack size

For
Packs small (enough)
Light (enough)
Easy to empty the air out and packs away quickly
Very deep, perfect for me as I'm a side sleeper
The wide rectangular shape means there is no more slipping off the narrow tapered ones
I've had 3 of my best nights sleep on this mat
High insulation value, with no down inside

To sum up
As a compromise of comfort and a good nights sleep, over a bit little heavier and slightly bulkier pack size to fit in your pack it's worth it in my opinion.
Although it says for winter use, I'm sure I'll use this all year around

Interesting John.

It might be me being thick but what do you mean by:

The wide rectangular shape means there is more slipping of the narrow tapered ones

same here john , my arms used to fall off the tapered matt all the time unless i slept with my hand in my pockets all night .
best thing i did was to buy a full mat

Sorry, I've edited it to say
