Likes: There are three things that make or break a hiking trip for me, the quality of the food, packing light, and getting a good night's sleep. The second and third are very closely tied, and when combined with the fact that I have a problem back it becomes critical that my sleeping pad provide support and warmth. This pad (really a high-tech inflatable mattress) is the best one I have ever owned. I have been using the traditional therm-a-rest pads for over 20 years and love all of them but this one takes it to a new level. It weighs nothing and fold down so small that I can just shove it into my stuff sack along with my sleeping bag. The fabric is also amazingly tough for its thicknes
Dislikes: It is very expensive, but if it lasts, the cost will be well justified.

Likes: This is the BEST sleeping pad/mat I have ever used!!!!! My shoulders and hips are very thankful for the incredible comfort. I just used it for 3 weeks whiling biking the Blue Ridge Parkway then 2 weeks out west visiting National Parks with a few motels stays in between and I was just as happy sleeping on my NeoAir as I was in a cheap motel.
Dislikes: It takes me 26 full puffs of air to inflate it. My daughter complained about the crinkling noise the mat made when I moved around. Even with those two minor negatives, I can still whole heartily recommend the mat.

Likes: This is an amazing product. It is extremely lightweight and rolls up to smaller than a loaf of bread. I found it comfortable and enjoyed the ability and ease of adjustment of firmness. Some nights I wanted it to have more give and you can just reach up and let air out easily while laying on it.
Dislikes: The material is a noisy when you move around. It did not bother me at all but, if you are sharing a tent, it could wake up your roommate.

Likes: While I have only used the NeoAir on two backcountry trips I have been very impressed with how comfortable the Neo Air has been. The NeoAir is light in weight and rolls up to a very compact size. So far I see nothing not to like about this pad.
Dislikes: The only draw back that I've encountered is the pad does tend to slide on a slick surface like the bottom of the tent.

Likes: Best sleep I've had on the ground. I can sleep on my back or on my side very comfortably. Very light.
Dislikes: This is so small, I can't put it on the outside of my pack so it takes up a pocket or internal space, unless it dangles off the back or side of the pack.

Likes: It's light weight, comfort and easy inflation/deflation are all big plusses.
Dislikes: Although I have found nothing I don't like about this product, other than the steep price, I am suspect of its durability. Its lightness and wispy appearance do not give a rugged impression but the proof will be in the endurance over a long haul. I have only used it for three nights. Another aspect of durability with which I am concerned is the attachment of the inflation valve. When rolled and stored it protrudes in a manner that subjects it to being snagged or caught on other items in my pack. I'd be very disappointed to take it out at the end of a long day and find that it had torn.

Likes: The Neo Air pad is amazing! So light, and the siliconized surface keeps you from sliding off in the middle of the night. VERY comfy! I've read many other reviews that complain about the price and durability.
Price: IT'S AMERICAN MADE!!! I'll gladly may a little more for an American made product.
Durability: Only time will tell, but it's not as flimsy as some reviews make it out to be. It's ultralight, and should be treated as such.
Dislikes: none

Likes: I chose the product because of its weight -- and it proven to be super light and compact. It actually packs smaller than my 3-season down sleeping bag. Also extremely comfortable once inflated properly and nice and wider than most pads that are rated ultralight.
Dislikes: Definitely does not self-inflate so requires a little more effort -- but worth it for the comfort and the light weight. Price should include stuff sack which could have been made more compact.

Likes: The NeoAir sleeping pad is amazing. It is lighter than any other product of its kind. It is easy to inflate and deflate. My large pad is so small when rolled up that it is about the size of a one pint water bottle. I fits easily inside my backpack instead of strapped on the outside. It is very confortable and warm to sleep on.
Dislikes: It is a bit pricey, but it is the best product of its kind and therefore costs more.
