Its r value has been slightly increased due to new testing.

Sea to summit ultralight insulated review.

Perhaps thermarest s most obvious competitor is the neoair xlite with an r rating of 3 2 its is almost as warm as the ultralight insulated mat but is quite a lot lighter at 353g 183cm long. We struggled to find a place for this jack of all trades master of none sleeping mat in the new sea to summit line. The sea to summit women s ultralight insulated air sleeping pad is a 66 x 21 5 inflatable sleeping pad that is 2 inches thick and has an r value of 3 8. Weighing 15 oz it has the same durable three way inflation valve and is easy to inflate by mouth or with the included pump sack.

The sea to summit etherlight xt insulated sleeping pad is a lightweight inflatable sleeping pad that is 4 thick and features air sprung cells for maximum comfort making it far more comfortable than thermarest s neoair sleeping pads and much quieter. The ultralight has many of the same features as the sea to summit comfort light insulated which weighs 8 ounces more and costs more but is much warmer. But then the neoair xlite is more pricey at 130. The sea to summit ultralight insulated mat is average weight and warmth but has impressive durability on all surfaces.

The dimpled cells were not optimal for side sleepers and took away from the insulating properties. The ultralight is an excellent pad for summer backpacking or any instance where you want a comfortable pad without sacrificing weight or pack space. It comes with an integrated pump for easy inflation. Overall the sea to summit ultralight insulated mat is great.

Weighing 13 8 oz it is a very quiet and comfortable pad with individual air sprung cells that conform to your body like a spring mattress. There are six sleeping pads or sleeping mats as sea to summit calls them in this line. The ultralight insulated is at the lower end of the pack in terms of warmth when compared to the rest of the products in this review. For an ultralight efficient mat that doesn t compromise comfort look no further than the sea to summit ultralight air mat sleeping pad.
