After buying a few insulated mattresses that didn’t get the job done, I bought the long wide XTherm about three years ago. I was able to get it on sale which helped on the price. It’s a great product and, to me, worth the price.

I have done so much research on sleeping pads. I've been uncomfortable on backpacking sleeping pads forever. None seemed to work. I got the "best" / "most comfortable" pad on the market that literally everyone says is one of, if not the most comfortable sleeping pads on the market - the Big Agnes Rapide SL. I figured that I was just doomed to bad sleep, and warmth had nothing to do with it. When looking to push into colder weather months, I decided to take Luke's recommendation on this pad. I WISH I had done so at the beginning of my backpacking gear journey. The Thermarest Xtherm is the most comfortable pad on the market that I've tested out, by far. Other youtubers talk about the baffeling system, and they're right in that it matters. But, that's only a small part of the equation. Elasticity of the top layer. How large the baffels are, including length, width, and height. A billion other things are at play here, and Thermarest hits every single nail on the head on this pad and is incredible. If you're looking to upgrade, or even for your first pad, and this puppy is in your budget GET IT!! You won't regret it

I can say it's the best mattress available. I have mine since 2016 and after hundreds of nights I was thinking about buying the wide one. It has never let me down, Iceland several times, Alps, Pyrenees, everywhere. It's one of those things that are pricey but not expensive. Worth every penny.

I have been using Lighttour R7.5 for a while. The heat preservation is completely comparable to Therm-a-Rest R7.2, but the price is only half! Professional test certificate, most importantly, 10cm thickness and wider and longer size are better than Therm-a-Rest.

I have the NXT version and is absolutely fantastic as warmth and reliability.The only slight downside (a nitpick) is that it tends to be a bit slippery but not that bad (maybe on next version some gel pads printed on top side could help).Use'it in Carpathian Mountains in winter (Romania) on -25'C and felt fabulous.For me the noise is not a problem.Sounds a bit like a bag of chips but can't be mad as long as is soo good compared to every other sleeping pad in the market.The valve is bomb proof.In short i tried to make'it work with less expensive sleeping pads (4-5 different sleeping padsover the years) but most leak air trough the valve sometimes or every time and they were nowhere near as good at insulating.I always knew about "that expensive sleeping pad" and finally i feed-up being cold so i got'it.If i add'up the money i spent on 4-5 previous sleeping pads was about the price of this one.Buy once - cry once.Mine is made in Ireland.

My first pad was a Thermarest self-inflating pad - 40 years ago. Used it frequently every year - still have it and have used it periodically in recent times. My next pad was the Termarest XTherm in 2012. Used that a lot including winter camping with zero issues. I was concerned about its age so I got the Neoair about 2 years ago. I like the new valve - very easy to use and deflates the bag very quickly. The Neoair is not as noisy as he XTherm. Comfort seems identical. The price was a bit of an issue but I have not regretted buying it. Time will tell.

Ho all ! As promised I would tell my experience with the neoair xtherm nxt. Last night I tried it out and honestly: it is great. No more pain in my back or hips and wonderfully warm. I also hear no sound when turning over and I expected that. Even my wife, who normally can hear an ant coughing, told me how quiet the sleeping mat is. I have really tried a few good sleeping mats and this may be the most expensive: it is worth its money. I also have the quilt from therm-a-rest and that makes it nicely complete. Very nice that they also have a matching sheet with which you can protect the sleeping mat and to which you can attach the quilt at the same time so that you do not experience a draft. What a great mat. If you can't afford it now: save up for it. Better something you are 100% behind than a product that is not quite right. But hey: to each his own. Have a nice day everyone and to Luke many thanks for the extensive review.

After a long trip in late fall/early winter in the northeast, I decided to invest in a couple of pieces of gear if the opportunity came up. This was one of the items I got and I am not a person of great means, so it was not easy coughing up that much cash but it makes such a huge difference that I have no regrets. Its very durable, very comfortable and lightweight. It's by far the best sleepingpad I've owned. Its interesting to me how there doesnt seem to be anything different along the edges but with it being such a thick pad its amazing how it holds me centered even when I roll towards the sides. After so long of trying all sorts of budget and make your own gear, its nice to get to know what to look for and slowly buy or make things that will last for years.

Have you ever tried the NEMO Tensor Extreme Conditions sleeping pad? It has an 8.4 R value and weighs 22 oz. Its a bit heavier but I use the Regular Wide which is 25 inches wide. It is also 3.5 inches as opposed to the Therma Rest 3.0 inches. Another thing, it is quieter and I can tell you the first time I laid down on the NEMO E.C, I felt the warmth immediately. The price varies by size and it tends to be a few more dollars than the T.R. but I consider it a great investment as I have slept out in -50 F. and -60 F. in the past and could feel the cold coming through my other sleeping pads in past years. It rolls up to the size of a Nalgene water bottle. In MY book, it is the best sleeping pad out there so far.

With the whole price tag thing, look at it this way. Luke said that his original pad lasted at least 10 years and still going strong. $240 for a high R value pad that has lasted over 10 years for a guy that camps all the time, doesn't sound too expensive at that point.

That logic assumes it WILL last a long time, that you actually need a higher R-value pad and that you and your hiking buddies will put up with the return of the crinkly sounds of yesteryear. No thank you. I am a cold sleeper and am fine with my older Xtherm and my Exped. I add a thin foam sheet on colder trips. That kind of money is better spent on other luxuries such as DCF, titanium or better dehydrated meals.

Here at Alaska Raft Connection, the top 4-season, proven go mild to wild, inflatable sleeping pads 'of this variety' (ie. Reliable make, Lightweight, Compact, Welded-beam) are EXPED Downmat 9, Synmat 9, and Thermarest Luke shares here - as well as the earlier version. For outfitting and guiding.. both EXPEDs I mention are the go-to. Personally, I go with the Thermarest NeoXtherm earlier version in the mummy-shape. It is my go-to especially on solo trips. Most of my solo trips, are remote destination fly outs. These trips are nearly always going to be in very demanding conditions. Luke's review is spot on for this product.

I’ve had my old X-Therm 10 years, no issues whatsoever. The new one would be overkill for me and besides no go on the price. Speaking of price, with the proposed 30% Chinese tariffs, the price of Chinese products may jump next year which is about 75% percent of the products Luke tests.

Good review! But I have to tell you as you know and pretty much everyone else out there the price is absolutely absurd, ridiculous and there’s no reason for it to be that high in price. There’s always a lot of excuses, but it’s just price gouging in my opinion, I don’t care if it’s made in the United States of America or mainland China.

My roll up Thermarests are over 35 years old and still good. Mostly self inflation. Heavy. I sleep on one very night. Looking to get one of these. may have to sell the dog. Hell no. Large is 28x77 x 3 and about $280. Worth it. Nothing like a poor nights sleep and a thousand mile ride in rain and cold the next day on my motorcycle. Four essentials in camping, tent bag, pillow mattress. If either is lacking you may quit camping all together. Save up. I've been there. Great place with dedicated American workers making a sustainable living. Warranty to hell and back.

I've got the previous version from a few years back (6.9R instead of the 7+). Thermarest had a first time buyer coupon at the time for about 20% so mine came out to under $200. Ive recieved multiple email coupons for about the same since so thats something to check out if the price is the one thing keeping people from getting one, it may just make the price worth the planned use for many people especially with the quality you get. Ive never had any issues with mine, even being a light sleeper when outdoors the crinkle sound is easy to mitigate using cheap foam earplugs. Typically you get 3 maybe 4: Comfort R value Noise Price Durability Weight/bulk These pads are an easy 4 of those and maybe even 5.

Funny your negative comment is about the color. The first thing I thought when I saw it was that it was a beautiful color! I still have two thick Thermarest mattresses which I bought somewhere around 1997 or so. Still work perfectly! They are comparable with the todays Thermarest LuxuryMap, I guess. They are dark blue. NOt great, but also not bad. I wish they would give more options in colors, because it truly affects my choice when they are too bright! Then I won't buy them, even when they are great to lie on. The ones I have now are less suited for when hiking long distances, but nothing is perfect.

Great review. I have used the regular NeoAir for years and there are times when I push it to real low temps and don't get great sleep cause I can just feel the cold beneath me. They are shockingly durable, used mine in new mexican desert and with a little bit of care it never popped. I got a cactus spine get lodged directly vertical in the bottom of my shoe just barely poking through when I put weight on it, but the sleeping pad never had an issue. Rocks, sticks, mostly non issue for it. Just take care around cactus spines and stuff.

Been using xtherms for all my thru hikes on the Appalachian Trail. It allows me to be out there in colder weather and before the bubble hits. It only took me one time to learn cheap gear tends to be cheap even if it passes the test at home. Being 10+ miles away from civilization in freezing temps with no pad to sleep on was an exausting night of trying to stay warm.

I don't have a problem with the noise from my older 20 inch Xtherm, which seems comparable to the newer model in that respect. But, although I'm mostly a side sleeper, when flat on my back one or both elbows are prone to slipping down to ground level. Best way to mitigate that seems to be positioning some gear or clothes on one or both sides to compensate a little for the elevation and temperature differences.

I just ordered one. I've tried a few sleeping mats but I always ends up with pain in my hips and a sleeping arm. I tried the sea to summit Ether Light XT Extreme Mat Wide and that one should be comfortable and warm. But my experience differs from what I hear around me. I put the mat on the floor in my sleeping room and using a quilt from thermorest. The mat feels cold in the night and not comfortable at all. So, Luke, I hope you're right about this one. I take your word for it and will leave a comment here when I tried this mat for a few nights. Kind regards, Govinda - Netherlands

NeoAir XTherm MAX R value is 6.9 (I own two). The thickness is 2.5". The .4R value increase is just due to the extra inflated thickness and as a result extra material. If you don't touch the ground with the old version and are not in arctic conditions (sub zero) then you probably don't need this. According to the standards for sleeping thermal resistance required a 6.9R value is good for comfort down to 2° f whereas a r value of 7.3 is good down to -8 ° f so only a 10° difference between the two and both are more than sufficient for ~20° camping.

Re: price Full retail, up front buy-in is hard to swallow. Perhaps. 20 or 30 percent off during your favorite retailer's black Friday or Memorial day sale makes the initial cost more palatable. So, let's call it $200. Still not cheap. However, sleep on it 20 nights during your first year of ownership and it breaks down to $10 a night to be warm and comfy. And the cost per night only goes down thereafter, rt? "Buy once, cry once" is a saying for a reason. As always, thanks for the agenda free review.

Wingnut valve design flaw. After lots of use, the area around the wingnut valve wears thin and a very small leak forms that is super hard to find unless you are reading this first. One idea is to beef it up with tape or seam grip prior to it wearing out. Thermarest is pretty good about fixing it but you may be off grid when the leak happens. Safe travels all. OutsideJay

If you are backpacking in deep winter conditions or high alpine terrain, well below freezing, its one of only two pads on the market that is reliable for those conditions. If you are not backpacking in those conditions, its probably a waste of money. I own the previous version, having purchased it used 7 years ago. Its been great for me, but its not the most comfortable pad I own. Its been relegated to winter use only, when temps are 20F or lower.

Buy once-cry once. Also, I got tired of my arms slipping off the mat so I buy the wide version on all of my pads even though I'm 5'7".

Is there a budget mattress you’d recommend for cold weather camping, one that most people can afford?

Exped for me...I got one of their top of the line many years ago, I think it was $150 18 or more years ago. A baffle failed, called customer service, they mailed me out a brand new 8R for free. Yeah, Exped for me!

At that price I would want 1/4 foam pad to protect it with like I usually do. Which tends to boost R value.

Thermarest is a great company. Even they're older mattresses hold the test of time. You fill it up firm and it doesn't leak a pinch. I regret the purchase of a $200.00 Nemo. The first one suddenly started leaking after hardly any use at all. They sent out a new one and it goes soft within an hour. Will not stay where you inflate it to. Yes they sent out another new one, an extreme version , better off selling for a therma rest while it's still new in the box.Nemo not made in the U.S..

Hopefully pretty soon we will start finding more "made on the USA" tags on things.

Could you test this against the Nemo Tensor Extreme? They are both very similar but it seems like the Tensor Extreme is even better with a lighter but better R value. Your thoughts?

I find my Therm-a-Rest pad to be too noisy. I'm a light sleeper and I toss and turn pretty much all night long. As you say, product quality of the pad is excellent. I would give it higher marks if I could just sleep a couple more hours without the noise waking me up.

I have this air mattress, used in Argali Rincon tent with no floor. I use a piece of tyvek housewrap for a groundsheet directly under the mattress. A few times in a desert area with lots of thorns I also added in a cheapo Walmart Ozark Trail foam sleeping pad. The NeoAir XTherm is great, super warm. Pricey & a little noisy but buy once, cry once. Amortized over years it’s not bad.

I will pay whatever it costs to have a warm, cozy, comfortable nights sleep. Look at it like this, if I stay in a motel instead of camping, I will pay $250 a night. So, if I can afford to stay in a motel for 4 days, I can afford the best sleeping system for my time in the wilderness.

Damn, even if this mat is made by Santa's elfs, the price is just ridiculous. But understand that you pay for the product not being made in China. I wonder what is actual price to manufacture one piece 🤔 shame, top product just out of reach...great review, as always 👍

I normally don't give out this kind of free advice, however you are a good sole in my opinion and deserve a break. You can block other content creators from using your content by copyright protection of your channel name and relative video content. Which is why KZbin suggested a attorney. Once you have your copyright you can request them to take down and strike the other channels. Reach for more details. I know this because I'm a literary agent.
