![]() Great mat, I've slept on this mat with my partner for two different weekends now and it is very comfortable. What's the point of a roll-top dry-bag enclosure if it's not actually a dry bag? Only complaint is that the bag has a roll-top like a dry-bag would have, but the bag isn't waterproof. A bit bulkier and heavier than carrying two separate sleeping pads, but not by much. ![]() It was well worth the extra pack and weight. Purchased this for a week long trip to the BWCA with my girlfriend. Because it's primarily a foam pad, your partner's movement is muted big time compared to an air mattress. Pad is super comfy, and great for those who toss and turn at night. My tent turned out to be 2" narrower than the width stated on its stuff sack and this pad put enough stress on the tent zippers to ruin one of them. Make sure to measure the dimensions of your tent to verify it's large enough. It takes quite a while to inflate with the provided "mini-pump" so owning a higher-capacity Exped pump would definitely come in handy. The pad is supposed to self-inflate, but it didn't seem to do this very well in ambient temperatures below 70F or so. The pad had me looking forward to sleeping on the ground, which is definitely a first for me. ![]() I recently finished a 2 month road trip with over 40 nights sleeping on this pad. Bed plus back rest :) I’m only 5’2 so this worked out great for a road trip with my dog. I have Toyota Tacoma with a short bed, and was able to crease the pad to fit inside my truck. Well worth investing a little more money for not only comfort but durability. This is by far the most comfortable sleeping pad ever. over all it is light years better then a Walmart type air bed. it fits back in its bag with out any trouble 29"x13" is the pack size you can expect. it is 10lbs 11oz in its bag with the pump. I would expect the mat to be harder to set up when cold. I think the instructions in the packing tells you to let it sit for 3 hours then inflate it a bit and let it sit for a hour then go all the way and let it be for a day it is not hard to set up after the first time. the first time you inflate it plan on taking your time. If your liking for a bed to put up visiters or for that car camping trips this mat is a good fit. It has lots of loft, so you can't feel anything uneven terrain under the pad. While it won't replace my old Thermarest for solo go-light trips, this thing is insanely comfortable, easy to fill (mostly self-inflate), and spacious. I've had my eyes on this sleeping pad for about a year and recently picked it up during the 20% off sale. I'm also impressed by how perfectly it fits in the Jeep. This is by far the most comfortable portable mattress I've slept on. This mattress is great! So far I've used it in the house as well as in my custom built sleeping platform in my '05 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. I have a 'bad everything' shoulders, back, hips.this has made camping life bearable. It's a near perfect fit and has made sleeping a pleasure. I replaced the rock hard mattress in my hard shell roof top tent. Just went on a week long camping trip with my wife and using the MegaMat Duo 10 and it was fantastic inflated easily deflation took a little effort but well worth it for a week of good sleep while camping !!!! Buy it use it love it The last camping trip i went on i had your typical generic Air Mattress which i have had a lot of over my years of camping because they always leak 35-45-55-65-75-85 dollars always the same result after 2-3 uses they end up deflating 1/2 way through the night. Slept great and best of all no complaints from my wife! My only minor gripe is that it does take a bit of time to force all the air out of it when packing up to get it small enough to roll up and put into the carrier. Initially we put too much air in it and had to bleed some out overnight but once we got it dialed in it was perfect. This thing is huge, and it event takes up a good bit of space in the trunk, but sleeping on it was just as comfortable as my Tempurpedic mattress at home. I picked up a Megamat on sale Memorial Day weekend and never regretted it. I was introducing my wife to camping so I wanted to make it as comfortable as possible the first time out. This was well worth the money we are considering another two for our kids. Bottom line I demaneed that we not buy another cheap camping mat. It's also a bit narrow but makes it good for snuggling. Only problem it is not long enough for my 6'3" husband. It is big, not something that I would take on a canoe trip. ![]() We didn't have a problem deflating the mat or packing up. Nights got into the 40's for August and no problem sleeping. We spent 7 nights in the tent and didn't have to re inflate.
