Review on Get Cozy Anywhere With Elegear Double Sleeping Pad - The Perfect Companion For Your Next Camping Trip! by Jay Brock

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A good summer sleeping pad.

I’ve done a lot of research on sleeping pads and bought a couple of cheap ones and very expensive ones to try out. Based on what I can see from the specs, I wouldn’t have high expectations on this one.This isn’t to say, this is a bad product, but what I look for in a good sleeping pad is the warmth rating (insulation), weight, design of the baffles and the size. With that in mind, I’m not too sure about this one (for my needs… i.e. good sleep while backpacking).From the description, it makes it sound like you’ll need to depend upon a good sleeping bag that provides warmth top and bottom (no R rating). A good 3-4 season pad, will reflect heat back to you, so you stay nice and toasty from underneath. This is a deal breaker for me since you could only use this during warmer months unless you supplement it with Mylar tarp or something.The weight and packing size is ok, but not great if you are worried about weight and want to take this backpacking. The baffles design is good and prevent your hips or arms from falling into any particular grove on the pad. I prefer the type that goes across the back, side to side. Size wise, it’s 26 inches wide which is wide enough for me where my arms won’t fall off the pad. This is actually very huge. If it was just a little wider you could have two people one this. The height is very good and comfort isn't a problem. Since I’m a side sleeper, the height would be enough for my hips not to bottom out. The built pillow is a nice touch but for me, I would bring an inflatable pillow along with you as it isn't enough for my neck.The inflation was a bit different than what I'm used to (usually use a bag) and was hard at first. However at few minutes I was able to figure it out and blow it up. I'm not sure I'd completely enjoyed this process verses other options.This is a good pad for a quick summer car camping trip, where warmth doesn’t matter. For the price point, it’s not a risky investment if you don't end up liking it. I plan on keeping this in case others come a long car camping with us.

Pros
  • I like the one piece shape pillow
Cons
  • We slid off of it all night. It has no grip.
