Basecamp Self-Inflating Camping Sleeping Pad

Great quality and easy to inflate. Super durable and extremely comfortable. Didn't feel like I was bottoming out. Firm mat but you can customize that. It retained the air all night.

Super super warm, I was extremely impressed w quality and function. Amazing product.

Went camping in Big Bend National park, the lows for each night were 32 or lower. This pad kept me warm and comfortable all night on the Rock covered ground. Despite my weighing 235 lbs and occasionally kneeling on it or supporting my weight with my elbows on it, it remained fully inflated. I'm impressed with it's durability. It was easy to inflate and deflate and despite my ordering the 30" width option, it fit on the back of my pack quite well. It weighs less than I was expecting and once inflated I never felt the ground through the pad despite my size while laying flat. I slept very comfortably all 3 cold nights in the National Park, one night got down into the Mid 20's and the wind was howling. I'm very happy with my purchase so far, if I have issues in the future I will update this review.

I have not experienced any problems with any of the Therm-a-rest Basecamp sleeping pads I’ve purchased. They will self inflate but not as full as they should be for maximum comfort. I always add a bit of additional inflation to boost the internal pressure and firmness of these pads. In my experience the construction and quality of these pads has been consistently at or above my expectations. One tip I have concerns storage. So I deflate and roll up the mat starting at the end WITHOUT the air valve (this is the standard method.). Once the pad is fully deflated and rolled all the way up to the valve end I close the valves. Then, with the valves closed, I completely unroll the mat AND re-roll it starting at the end with the air valve. This way the pad gets stuffed into the storage bag with valve nearer the core of the roll I seat of the outer layer of the roll. My hope is the valve is better protected in storage and transit this way.

Comfy and warm, i bought this on a recommendation from camp time roll a cot. Fits it perfectly in the sleeve and with the r-6 rating i dont lose body heat in the cold. Easy to adjust pressure and its held the pressure no problem for me luckly.

I’ve been familiar with Thermarest for a long time and their products never seize to amaze me. Love it! The only draw back if any would be its size. Much larger than I anticipated. Definitely not for backpacking.

Great for winter camping. This isn’t the most comfortable pad you can get, but is a great balance of durability, packability, and warmth. Great for a base camp. I’d go with their Luxury Map or Mondo King for glamping.

works as described. pacakged size feels about the same as a twin air matress, probably weighs less. its a pain to deflate. I'm looking for something that fits into a compact kit but is still very comfortable and this wasn't it. I'm a side sleeper and felt my hips hitting the ground. I hate how all these "camping mattresses" are larger than most of my other kit i bring with me.

Bit larger than I remember but good product

This was my best, last-minute camping buy this year. First of all, I’m a chronically ill, middle-aged woman with, frankly, a battered body. I have MCAS (chemical sensitivity, which is becoming more and more common as a complication of long covid). Thermarest sleep mats are the best I’ve found for a night’s sleep without wondering if my spouse has poisoned me in the morning. The offgassing is minimal. They don’t stink. I usually use a Mondoking - twice the thickness of the BaseCamp - so I was worried that this thinner little brother wouldn’t be man enough to cushion my hips and back, or for the rough, wilderness ground I’m camping on in my Nemo backpacking tent. Not the case. This is my twenty-first night using the BaseCamp directly on the ground. I plan to put it on a low cot in the future but, thanks to the foam core, it’s plenty warm enough. I’ve slept soundly throughout AND I can still walk in the morning! Super easy to deflate and stuff back into the sack, if you use your knees to push the air out. The wing lock makes finding the desired firmness easy. Quality-price ratio is seriously good. I’ll be saving my Mondoking for bigger-effort trips in future, and possibly using this on top of it for nights where there’s a lot of pain. Standalone, however, this has become a main bit of kit for me.

Super quality! I like 👍 and I recommend it

Ideal...... beste Qualität und gut zu händeln . . .

Therm-a-Rest hat seinen Preis, aber nach einigen erfolglosen Versuchen, habe ich mich doch wieder für diese Marke entschieden. Dicke, Gewicht, Handhabung, Haltbarkeit... für mich stimmt alles.
