View Full Version : sleeping pad advice
Nemo Astro Air, Thermarest Neoair X-lite or Exped Synmat UL 7. I am leaning toward the Exped. I am mainly a side sleeper and I want something very light that packs small. Thank you.

I've got this Nemo (http://www.nemoequipment.com/product/?p=Cosmo+Insulated+Lite+20R) and am also a side sleeper. Packs down well, and while a little bit heftier in comparison, I've spent too many years sleeping on the ground to do so again by choice.

They're closing out the Xlites, coming out with a new model, I guess. Now is the time to get them at a discount (25% at REI). I'm standing pat, since I'm happy with my Neoair Trekker.

I am only able to find small, large and women's on sale, not the regular...

Last weekend I checked at my local REI, in Maplegrove, MN, and they had around 5 regulars. You may want to call REI and see if they can ship one from the store. I think the regular was selling for around $110.

Thanks for the heads up on the discount! I just picked up a women's XLite which I've had my eye on for a while now.
So the Xlite is the way to go? Any other votes for the Nemo?
