Exped megamat duo 10 sleeping pad medium plus#
This is in contrast to Exped (5 year warranty plus repair service) and Nemo (lifetime warranty and repair service). And since REI doesn't guarantee it past one calendar year, and have no ability to repair them (their "repair service doesn't fix pads and REI doesn't make/stock/sell valve parts). I have a feeling this one would be good for maybe a year of use and then the valves or seams will give out. Quality just isn't there and comfort is the lowest of the three 4" mattresses. The REI Camp Dreamer is cheapest 4" and it shows. All three of these are plenty comfortable if you don't have injuries/issues (eg, the bad shoulders) and you sleep on reasonably un-lumpy ground. The Megamat 10, REI, and the Nemo are 4"-thick "class" mattresses. I've actual bought a couple battery pumps with deflate functionality, trying to find something that speeds up the process. Packing it up and moving every day is a hassle.

It also takes quite a while to inflate, and longer to deflate. And it's so comfy for this slide sleeper with messed up shoulders.īut if you're trying to use this in a vehicle or rooftent or somewhere else where headroom matters, or you don't have room to even carry something so big, forget it. My wife slept in this for 7 nights straight last summer without complaint. For tent use - especially if you have to deal with uneven ground - it's amazing. Does anyone need a mattress this big? It's giant deflated and monstrous when inflated (like 6" thick). The Megamat 15 is HUGE and in class by itself. I also tested a neighbor's 3.5" Big Agnes) The Big Agnes and Klympt packed small but were lacking actual sleep comfort. I got the Exped Megamat 10 and the 15max, REI's brand (camp dreamer), a Klympt double, and the Nemo Roamer. Breaking up a 10 day trip with three hotel stays gets expensive and kinda ruins the adventure. My wife usually only wants to sleep two nights in a row in a tent, then either home or hotel for a night. I ordered and tested a bunch of the high-end mattresses at home when the local REI was on lockdown in an attempt to find a super comfortable sleep system for my wife and I in our Gazelle tent.
