Super Comfy Sleeping Pad

So far this pad is awesome! My boyfriend and I have been looking at and comparing sleeping pads for a while now as we're preparing to do a 10 day backpacking hike in Alaska. This one is super cushy which is the main reason I picked it. I don't like the thin pool floaty like, inflatable ones with all the ridges. I have a fused spine and it's hard enough getting comfortable while sleeping on a regular mattress at home, so having something extra supportive and padded was top priority for me. This wellax sleeping pad is perfect! It self inflates and has a lot of foam to cushion and add thickness so you don't feel like you're sleeping on the ground in the slightest. I almost think it's comparable, if not better than my actual mattress. I am not worried anymore about losing sleep after our long hikes due to discomfort and inflammation. The one downside is that it is a bit big rolled and packed up, but I find that to be a worthwhile sacrifice for the better quality of sleep I'll be getting with this. All of the foam ones run a bit bigger and thicker anyways, so when considering that this really isn't bad at all. Definitely easy enough to pack and carry still. Another upside is that this pad is super toasty! It immediately warms you up the second you sit/lay on it. I'm really happy about that because I'm usually always cold and being outside in mild Alaska temperatures (we are going in the summer) I know I'm gonna be chilly at night. The only reason I'm giving this 4 stars instead of 5 is because I have not actually gone camping and slept on it for a whole night yet. I'm confident I'll be sleeping like a baby when I do though.
