Crua Self Inflating Camping Mattress Sleeping Pad – Camping Air Mattress with Self-Inflating Valve, Quick and Easy Set Up, Ideal for All Weather and Hiking Backpacking

Very well made

Very nice system that allows you to sleep on the ground when trees might not be available for hammock sleeping. No need for a bottom quilt as it comes with an inflatable insulated sleep pad. The rain fly has a vestibule to keep your bag/gear dry in wet weather. It is a bit heavy/bulky so most people would likely not want to use it for longer hiking trips.

This is a really good quality ground pad. It comes in a cinch bag with two elastic straps to keep it rolled up tight, and a mini patch kit with glue. It seems to work just as well and be every bit as comfortable as my name brand thermarest. Nice and compact. Definitely recommend.

I just got my mattress pad today and it is really light weight and small. Also comes with a nice bag to keep it wrapped up and a patch just in case. I aired it up and it’s going to be really comfy during camping trips this year!!

Pros:• Self-inflating• Compact and lightweight• Comes with a carrying bagCons:• Self-inflation is not what I expected• Not very wide• Comfort is both subjective and objective, depending on the circumstance• Due to the self-inflating nature of this product, it is somewhat difficult to roll it back up and get it into its carrying case.So when I saw that this was self-inflating, I had to try it out.When I opened it up and let it “self-inflate,” it was a little underwhelming. I couldn’t really tell if the inflation process was completed or needed more time. From my experience, I think it self-inflated pretty quickly. At least to the point where it won’t self-inflate anymore.Basically, when you twist the nozzle, it allows air to suck in, but not escape. Now, when you experience this, you will have to determine whether it’s inflated enough through its own self-inflation or if you need or prefer to add more air by manually blowing it up.If I had to guess, I would think most people would blow some more air into it to give it a little bit more fluff and comfort. But I will not say it does not self-inflate because it does. At first, I thought it was a gimmick, but it does suck in air and therefore technically inflates itself.It just depends on whether it’s enough air for you to enjoy it. It doesn’t take much to add a little bit more air to it through the nozzle. But I kind of thought if this is supposed to be self-inflating, you wouldn’t need to do that. Of course, I was skeptical because most things that are self-inflating require some sort of automatic pump or CO2 canister.When it was time to put the sleeping pad away, I realized that it’s pretty difficult to get all the air out of it and get back to its regular non-inflated state. It keeps wanting to suck more air in, so you have to really hunker down on it to make sure air doesn’t go back into it while you’re rolling it up.At the end of the day, I think it’s a good product. It’s lightweight and portable and does provide some extra comfort and temperature control from a cold ground or hard surface. Your mileage may vary depending on your tastes for sleeping pads. But I did sleep on it one night and thought that it did add some layer of comfort that wasn’t there prior to using the sleeping pad.Disclaimer:I received this product as part of the Amazon Vine program.
