I had two of them by now and I liked them both I didn’t have a problem on them losing airI’m a side sleeper so on occasions I can feel the ground but it doesn’t bother meMost other mattress aren’t meant for size sleepers anywaysFor someone getting started in camping/backpacking it’s a great mattress for the weight and price

This blow up mat will come in very handy when I travel. I like that it rolls up very small.I blew it up easily no problem and it was comfortable.This will come in very handy when traveling to use on uncomfortable beds.

I'm glad the "KLYMIT STATIC V Sleeping Pad, Lightweight, Outdoor Sleep Comfort, Best Camping Gear for Backpacking..." is still available - even though the replacement is being sold.Pros: Lightweight; can roll into a small pouch; less expensive than most Klymit pads.Cons: Summer use only (50 degrees or above); larger than the advertised "soda can;" the side rail concept doesn't seem to really be functioning as intended; doesn't roll into its pouch on the first try, or second, and maybe the third.I used this pad on late summer and early fall nights and still felt the cold ground in the early mornings at 52 degrees; below that the ground temps were really evident. I would call the storage size closer to Dinty Moore Stew than a soda can. The valve isn't as nice as the newer Klymit products but it still is perfectly fine.

Great experience with this product. It is pretty easy to inflate (by mouth), comfortable to sleep on, easy to pack up back into the original bag, small (about the size of a nalgene style water bottle) when rolled up, and light weight. It is a bit on the noisy side to move around on. I haven't found that to be a major issue, but worth noting.I have used this primarily for sleeping on hard floors, including a pretty comfortable night on the floor of the airport.

Used it on the Rubicon Trail. Small and light, but provided great comfort. Blew up by mouth quickly.

I like this pad a lot for backpacking. I've taken it on 3 week long backpacking trips and a dozen or so weekend trips.Pros:- very cost effective- very light. There is no insulation in here.- the "static V" shape really does help with comfort.- durability, as I mentioned, this pad has held up much longer than I expected. I've been on about 12-15 trips with this pad and had no leaks. I'm pretty careful not to let any rocks or sticks in the tent when rolling it up.- space: I used to have a foam accordian sleeping pad. This pad is definitely much more compact in the pack and can be stored internally.Cons:- comfort, it isn't as comfortable as I would like. I am a 190lbs and I can't really side sleep with this pad. Plan on stomach or back sleeping if you are over 160lbs or so.- not too much else, pretty good pad especially for backpacking.

I ended up giving this pad away to my cousin for free cause it was useless.If you are the best sleeper in the world and will be sleeping on warm, flat, pillowy ground, then sure, buy this trash.Otherwise, whoever said Klymit rivals the premium brands is lying.The pad has no firmness to it. The heavy points of my body sunk straight through it to the ground, and I weigh less than 150lbs.I'm a side sleeper and it really felt like my bones were making direct contact with the rocks in the ground.No heat insulation whatsoever. Whatever temp the ground is, so shall you be.Sleeping pads are one of those things where it really seems like you just get what you pay for, and this is my case in point.

I have an older lightweight Static V with the push pull valve, which has worked pretty nice. Decided to get a second one. It was unclear, but it seemed like this would come with a flat valve. Instead it's the corner mounted "twist valve" that I've had issues with on my klymit self inflating pad. The plastic would separate at the corners from the bed material creating a leak. Either of the other two options would've been desirable. The corner twist valve, I'm not really happy about. Will still give it a try though.Other gripe, the packaging says, "...compatible with [Klymit's] Rapid Air Pump". It's not. The information for the Rapid Air Pump indicates that it only supports the flat valve or push pull valve, not the corner twist valve, the Amazon description for that tool says as much. Pretty disappointed by the lack of clarity on the valve type with this. It's not even shown in the pictures on here.Anyway, some of the nice bits. The design historically has been pretty comfortable for what it is. It packs up really small. I also like to have it on hand as a backup if I'm car camping and the bigger/heavy inflatable mattress develops a leak. Works pretty well in a hammock as well.
