[QUOTE="brcfo_outdoors, post: 3068052, member: 113623"] If you are trying to save weight, Thermarest is still the way to go. I have had their Xtherm since 2015 and its has never failed me. Weight and comfort/ease of inflation are sort of a trade offs with pads. My Xtherm rolls down to nothing, but takes a fair bit of blowing up which isn't the most fun at the end of a long day of hiking/hunting. If you want more comfort, brands like Sea to Summit and Exped add a foam layer into the pad which makes them more luxurious but also much heavier and bulkier to pack. I am sure other brands have great offering, but I honestly haven't needed to shop much since buying the one I have. Browsing through their website just now I did see this which seems to be a compromise between comfort, weight, and easier inflation.
