LightSpeed Outdoors Sleep Pad with Pillow: Review

Edit: I say “Ultrathick Sleeping Pad” in the video. It’s actually the smaller LightSpeed Outdoors Sleep Pad, and weighs just 3.8lbs.

The LightSpeed Outdoors Sleep Pad with Pillow is a comfy, roomy self-inflating sleep pad. Here’s what we thought about it in more detail.

Ease of Use: I mean, it’s a self-inflating sleep pad. How could it be easier? Five stars.

Durability: I’m always nervous about inflatable anythings. I had to bring back an inflatable mattress three times once before getting one that didn’t leak, so I just distrust them. The LightSpeed Outdoors Sleep Pad seems like it’s built rock solid. The valve is also copper, so you should get a nice, long life out of it.

Value: For the size of it, $70 is a pretty solid value compared to comparable self-inflating mattresses on the market.

Weight: The LightSpeed Outdoors Sleep Pad is 3.8 lbs, which is about average for a pad this comfortable. You’ll most likely be car camping with it, so the weight probably isn’t an issue.
