Review on WELLAX Ultralight Air Sleeping Pad: Inflatable Mattress For Backpacking, Traveling, Camping & Hiking - Includes Repair Kit & Carry Bag! by Rick Howlett

Ok I picked this up in April just specifically for a trip planned for this week.Never even opened the package, just took it out of the box and put it in the backpack that I only use for this special camping trip. 2+Mile hike into the campsite trying to beat the rains, level my tent site and pitch my tent. I take this out of the package, blow it up, goes flat before I can get the tent unzipped. I find one hole (Fairly good sized slice) patch it with Gorilla Tape, (No repair kit comes with this or at least not mine.) Re-inflate it, now seems to hold air. Place it in the tent, unzip my bag, place it on top and make my nest for the coming week.Well at bedtime, it seems to have flattened a little, I guessed from my hot air filling it up but not being hot anymore so I give it a touch up. About 3AM I awake to the pain of being a side sleeper and the disappointment of no ground pad. Damn thing deflated in the night and I was now in the dirt. So I sucked it up til daylight and then tried to find the latest leak.no luck. Even with soapy water to help I never found the leak. And the return window has been closed for months so this pad now resides in a dumpster. Not even sure why I bothered to pack it out, other than not wanting someone else to get the bright idea to try it out and wake up disappointed. Word of advice.Try it out before you use it for real. I just assumed this was a good product with no defects considering the price. I added 3 more stars because you guys did replace it hassle free and that's awesome. But I can't try it out until next year's trip. Sure I can blow it up n lay on it in the yard but that's not quite the same.
