    If you fly with Air New Zealand and got an Airpoint account they have Rab sleeping mat in store. Emptied the account before the missus had a look and got a Rab inosphere 5.5. Been really happy with it. The game changer was also getting a small Flextail electric pump….

    The Nemo Tensor extreme comes with a handy bag pump, 3 bag fills and its good to go. Have the regular @ 500gram and a R8.5 value

    Sorry but this is no contest.
    I got this, just used it for a week. Never sleep better. Simply awesome. Quiet, super comfortable. Feels like you’re on a proper bed.

    +1 for the flextail pump. Unreal how good it is. We use the klymit pads, not the comfiest compared to more expensive options but do the job

    Got the big Agnes rapide sl wide. Had 20 nights in fiordland, more comfortable than my bed. Worth the extra 200grams over the ultra light stuff For a proper sleep

    This is the Flextail to get for best weight–for–functionality.

    50grams. That is the same as the typical inflation bag.
    Doubles as the back-up torch.
    My mat priorities now are Warmth, Weight, Comfort, Noise, in that order, so XTherm NXT wide. Actually I haven't noticed a noise problem with the later NXT.
