[QUOTE="Nimrod62, post: 2154567, member: 118165"] SectionHiker has good reviews on sleeping pads. I have multiple Therm-a-Rest pads, and they have a great reputation among the ultralight and through-hiker communities. Their inflatable pads are expensive, but they do have a good warranty. I try to buy used or on sale (or use a 20% REI coupon). For me the NeoAir short was to fiddly trying to use my pack to insulate/cushion my legs. The regular NeoAir was long enough for me at 5'-10" height, but my elbows hung off the edges, so I gave that one to my son and went to the Large NeoAir, which is more comfortable for the width. I believe that they may have a Regular/Wide version now. I have lots of nights on the NeoAir. I'm a cold sleeper and find that it's not warm enough for me much below freezing. The Women's NeoAir has a higher R-value, so if the size works, it's a warmer pad. I bought a used NeoAir XTherm, which should be warmer below freezing, but I have yet to use it. Many augment their inflatable pads with a closed-cell foam pad in cold weather, and the foam pad can also provide protection from punctures. [/QUOTE]
