This pad is great. Very comfortable and easy to use.

Survived A Week In The Florida Keys

My son and I participated in a boy scout high adventure this summer. Weight was of essence as we paddled to a remote 100 acre island off of the Florida keys and camped in the July heat for a week. Thankful for the thickness and support of the rapide. Without question would order again as compared to other pads I've used over the last two decades.

Very Comfortable

I had shoulder surgery and was in Marine infantry. I can no longer sleep on the ground as I once could. This allows me a comfortable nights sleep on any terrain. I did have to get the 25"x72" as I'm a side sleeper and the 20" is just too small. Your knees fall off the pad, very annoying. But the 25" is perfect. And it's super small rolled up. This will allow me many more years of camping.

Great For A Bigger Person

I have been backpacking for years and have always had issues with back and hip stiffness on my sleeping pads. I'm a larger person and a side sleeper. This pad has enough thickness and support to keep my hips and shoulders off the ground. I was recommended this sleeping pad while backpacking AK by a friend who was also experiencing back problems after an injury. This was the first purchase I made upon my return back to MD and will never sleep on anything else.

Perfect Weight To Comfort Ratio.

It’s not ultralight, but it’s really comfy. I’ll trade some pack weight for a good night’s sleep any day.

This pad proves to be really sturdy, I used it on a mountaineering trip climbing a 6000er in Afghanistan, been out 3 weeks in the wilderness. Slept on snow, ice, and rocks. The insulation is perfectly enough for backpacking and mountaineering.

Excellent Quality And Super Comfortable

This was my first experience with an inflatable sleeping pad, and I've been really impressed so far. It's super comfortable, and it stays fully inflated all night without any deflating. Inflation is a breeze thanks to the included plastic bag — no huffing and puffing required. The only minor challenge is squeezing it back down into its small storage bag, but that's a small trade-off for how compact it packs. I've now taken it on four camping trips with zero issues, and it's held up great every time.

Comfort Previously Unknown

This sleeping pad is a major improvement from my experiences with folding pads, but not a major weight gain. It’s lightweight and compact packaging, as well as quick and easy inflation allows for comfort after a long day on the trail with out the wait, or weight. As many inflatable pads do, the Rapide does make a little noise when shifting, but not nearly as bad as others and not enough to disturb those nearby. With its durability I hope to get many more nights out of this pad

I found it deflated more than expel after the first use overnight. set it up in my garage when I got home and 8 hours later it was pretty flat. Overall it was comfortable when laying on it.

Loved It.

Very comfortable, easy to blow up and did not have that "I'm going to roll off the edge" feel. We have used it three times so far.

Rapide Sl 25 Inch

While this is not the most “ultralight” pad on the market, it has performed phenomenally for me. I use it backpacking and bike-packing and it has not failed me in the slightest. It’s generally quiet, very comfortable for me as a side/rotating sleeper, and packs down light and small enough. Pairs well with a quilt and a mummy bag. I’m a big fan of the wide, even as a small person (5’6, 120lbs)

The Best Upgrade For A Good Night Sleep

Honestly, I’ve had the best night sleep camping that I’ve had in years. I’m not exaggerating. This pad has upgraded my sleeping system tremendously- it’s well structured and perfectly cushioned for side sleepers. May be a little heavier than some other pads out there but the good night sleep is worth it!!

Comfy But Unreliable

When it works, this pad feels great. But I've now patched its third uncaused slow leak in three years. In cold conditions, that's simply too great a risk. You're better off buying a cheap option when it breaks this much.

Very Comfortable

Took this on a trip to Bowron Lakes, I was warm and comfortable and had extremely good sleep. It packs down very small and the included inflation sack works really well. I got the wide/regular and my shoulders were very happy about it. Highly recommend this for anyone.

Very Light Comfortable And Compact, Hard To Pack

This mattress is light and comfortable, just hard to get back into the stuff sack
