Product Highlights

An amazing combination of warmth and lightweight packability, the Exped DownMat UL 7 inflatable sleeping pad allows even ounce-counting backpackers to enjoy confident comfort in all 4-seasons. High-performance 750+ goose down insulation provides the DownMat UL 7 with a warm R-value of 5.9.

The DownMat UL 7 employs separated air chambers to provide 2.8 inches of comfortable support. Top-of-the-line laminated polyester fabric is air tight, slip proof and offers both UV and abrasion resistance. A layer of goose down insulation laminated to the bottom and top of each baffled air chamber eliminates cold spots. Exped uses only IDFL-certified goose down that is specially treated to eliminate the negative effects of humidity. Lightweight horizontal foam blocks at either end of the pad prevent down from escaping or migrating between chambers. A year round-worthy R-value of 5.9 makes the pad suitable for winter use and snow camping.

Glues used in sleeping pad construction are often broken down by moisture but Exped's proprietary fabric lamination process creates air tight baffles and prevents moisture build up in the pad from destroying these glues, resulting in no loss of air over time. Another stand out feature of the DownMat UL 7 is Exped's flat valve construction. Separate valves for inflation and deflation offer a high volume of air flow in and out of the pad making inflating and deflating the pad fast and easy. Many inflatable sleeping pads fail due to their valve construction but the DownMat UL 7's flat valves eliminate the stiff edge commonly found around traditional valves. This results in lasting, durable valve construction for the life of the pad.

Adding greater functionality and enhancing the pad's longevity, an included Schnozzel Pumpbag tackles inflation without introducing any potentially destructive moisture into the interior. This also saves you from the task of manually blowing air into the pad. The pumpbag doubles as a stuff sack and a field repair kit is included for emergency purposes.

The Exped DownMat UL 7 is available in XSmall (47" x 20") Small (64" x 20"), Medium (72" x 20") and Long/Wide (77.5" x 26") lengths.

Sizes available: Long/Wide, Medium, Small, XSmall

  • YANG L. – LOS ANGELE CA

    Likes: Absolutely love this pad. The weight is very light. After you deflate it, the pad is like a down jacket, pretty thick even without air.

    It is very warm. Definitely better than my old Big Agnes Dual Core.

    Dislikes: I cannot really think of anything I dislike. Maybe it looks not that durable. But it needs time to see. Also it is ultralight, it is expected to be less durable.

    Likes: When properly inflated, the pad is very comfortable and warm to sleep on.

    Dislikes: The pad partially deflated after several hours in a room at constant temperature. It could have just been a faulty unit. Also, while the inflation bag is innovative and clever, it requires some room at the front of the pad to work the inflation process. As a result, it was impossible to inflate the pad within my single man tent (copper spur ul1). The pad has to be inflated outside the tent. This could be problematic in the rain given the fact that the insulating material is down, plus who wants to get their pad wet and then put it into the tent?

    Overall, I found the pad unwieldy and the loss of pressure worrisome. I returned this pad and purchased a Thermarest prolite instead.

    Likes: Lightweight compared to the R-value. I have not tried this yet in the winder time, but, the touch feel and R-value to weight ratio is good.

    Dislikes: Concerned about durability.
