This pad is light and exremely small. I purchased it intending to use it as a half pad, and it is perfect for that or a smaller child.
Dislikes:
Nothing so far...

For four days and nights, I left the mat inflated and slept on it, finding it much more comfortable than my closed cell foam pad. With the latter, I frequently wake up and roll over to let the other side of my body press on the hard ground. With the ProLite, I slept soundly. On the fourth morning, I let the air out of the mat and rolled it up as I would if I were hiking to the next day’s camp. And that night I unfurled the mat and noted to my satisfaction that it took only a few minutes to self-inflate to where it needed only one puff to firm it up for the night. So I will store it with the valve open in self-inflated mode rather than rolled up tightly.
Dislikes:
The ProLite took two weeks to "self inflate" after I took it out of the package. The manufacturer recommends not using the pad in winter as ice may build up from the breath blown into it.

Pad is really small, packs very nicely. If you are going to store it inside your pack, i dont really think you need the stuff sack for it.
Dislikes:
Could be thicker, but it would add more weight so.

Good compromise between weight and comfort. It is almost as light as a closed cell pad and offers an extra 1/4" of thickness. The tapered shape ensures there is no excess material/weight. Easy to roll up and fit back in the stuff sack. I bought the 'small' size which worked well for my 5'6" teenage scout on a 12 day backpacking trip.
Dislikes:
Nothing so far.

This prodcut is compact and easy to use. Just enough air in the pad to get a comfortable night sleep without all the bulkiness. Storage is easy and it makes a great pad for staying light on the trail.

Awesome pad! Sleeps very comfortably on sloped terrain as well as flat. Keeps you off the ground for warmth, and is very cushy.
Dislikes:
Nothing!

The weight of this pad is unbelievable- as well as the bit of warmth it can add to your bag. I bought the XS to cut weight and truly go ultra-light
Dislikes:
I can never seem to roll the pad up to its original size. It seems as if there's always a bit of air left in it.
