I actually have one of the original thermarests from the early 90 s and it s still in use they truly are excellent sleeping pads.
Exped downmat 7 sleeping mat review.
The exped 7 inflates to 7cm in height as opposed to the exped 9 which inflates to 9cm and is incredibly comfortable as an air mattress should be.
No getting around it this pad is heavy and takes up lots of space in your pack.
Top quality down insulation.
Easy to pump up and deflate and comfortable we have even slept on cold concrete floors with no problems.
The downmat 7 is a great backpacking pad that is pretty comfortable and keeps you warm.
In size m the downmat 7 is 845g while its stripped back offspring tips the scales at just 587g my weight.
Exped went above and beyond to help me out when my mat failed.
I think that exped downmat 7 is a best mat for a winter.
Add another 80g for the stuff sack and pump bag.
The exped synmat 7 is an insulated air construction sleeping pad that is quite comfortable.
It s also pretty difficult to fully inflate the pad because at a certain point the pump will be below the inflated part and it becomes difficult to depress.
The integrated pump makes inflation swift and simple.
Exped downmat 7 great product we have used them every night for 3 month now.
The downmat weights 35 7 oz 15 oz more than the second warmest pad in our review the rei co op flash all season insulated air.
Tested according to idfb standards and.
Compared with the original downmat 7 the ul7 is a real featherweight.
It also has an internal pump which is a nifty feature though most testers found it unnecessary.
The downmat 7 is the mat for all seasons.
Packing size is smaller than any other mat.
Exped downmat 7 sleeping pad review i am no stranger to insulated sleeping mats and have been using thermarests for many many years.
Because nothing compresses better than down it packs extremely small and tight.
And thanks to its down fill it s incredibly warm as well with absolutely no cold spots.
However the benefits of this pad are offset by its heavy weight.
This down filled airmat is amazingly comfortable and warmer and lighter than any comparable mat.
If you re pulling a sled or maybe you ve got dogs to pull a sled or llamas mules or some other beast of burden to carry this pad for you weight and packed size is less of an issue.
This was one of our favorite pads to sleep on and gave us many good nights of sleep.
Exceptionally warm comfortable and compact.
