TIHOOK Self Inflating Camping Mat, Inflatable Camping Mattress with Built-in Pump, 10CM Thick Camping Bed With Pillow, Waterproof Inflatable Mat For Outdoor, Camping, Hiking, Traveling

Great camping mat. Built in foot pump inflates mattress well. The mattress has a slightly raised pillow which adds to comfort. This isn't that thick so it depends on how much 'comfort' you want from an air mattress, this is 10cm with a good distribution of air via individual pockets, personally I tend to want almost 5 star hotel quality mattress while camping so this isn't for me for sleeping but perfect for topper on a sunbed or to have in the car, or take for picnics, beach. Gave this to a friend who does fell running and used to sleeping on the ground and she said its heaven to sleep on. Overall, this is as described, well made, I personally feel its a little expensive, the other thing I will mention is the listing says around 850g, I weighed the one sent to me and its 1001g. Not a lot of different but if you are carrying all your camping equipment every gram makes a difference.

This is a very lightweight camping mat, delivered neatly rolled inside a carry bag. It wouldn't take up much space in a large haversack if going out camping and wouldn't add much weight at all.Made from a high-quality coated nylon fabric, it is clear a lot of thought has gone into the initial design to aid comfort. I did like the diamond patterns, they were more comfortable to lie on than earlier "flat" inflated mats I have used in the past. The fabric feels really thick, which is surprising since it is so lightweight. It also comes with a couple of stickers just in case the worse should happen and you spring a leak.The instructions are quite clear. Make sure the valve near the headrest section is fully closed, then open the valve at the bottom and start to press down with your foot. This starts the inflation process. A nice, simple idea but, I have to say, it seemed to take an absolute age with constant pressing down. By the time I had finished inflating, my leg was tired, my muscles ached, and I really needed a lie down. This is surely not what someone would want to do after a day hiking, and if using this to take out for a picnic, for example, it takes so long to inflate that you might well have gone off the idea.To deflate, simply ensure the plug is still in the bottom end (where your foot has been pumping) and fully open the plug near the headrest portion. You can then start to press down the air will leave the mat so that you can fold it again and return it to its bag. I have to say that this was just as tiresome as inflating. It did not want to release the air quickly and, again, took an age to fully deflate enough to be able to pack the mat away.This is a nicely mate camping mat, the quality of the fabric and workmanship is first rate, and it really is comfortable - once you have inflated it. However, because it takes so long to inflate, and then another age to deflate, I think that would turn a lot of potential customers off purchasing. I have rated this with 4 stars because it is worth that rating and, if there had been a quicker (less painful) way to inflate and also to deflate, I would have given this a 5 star rating.
