This was one of our favorite pads to sleep on and gave us many good nights of sleep.
But one thing they re usually not.
There s one valve for inflate and one for deflate making the process as simple as can be.
The exped megamat 10 is the absolute daddy when it comes to warmth and is therefore our pick for the best winter sleeping pad.
It also has an internal pump which is a nifty feature though most testers found it unnecessary.
