A nice place to lay....

Post by Yorkshire Andy »

Mrs Andy has been nice enough to get me a double version of this

for my birthday earlier on this year

now ive had camp mats of the foam eva rubber type (which are hard and bad on my aging back ... to the us army cot style beds *(which are cold on the back)* and on fairly even ground such as grass or a hard floor they are fantastic had a few cheaper ones but nothing as comfy as these... even in sub zero temperatures just had the bag laid over us like a duvet with a wool blanket on the Mat to soak up the sweat (that sounds grim doesnt it) but as a bug out bed where you would end up on a friends floor on in a sports hall i think they are worth every penny even with my 14+ stone "frame" Tried the vango 2.5cm one and my hip hit the floor not a issue with the 5cm

If your roughing it, Your doing it wrong ;)

Lack of planning on your part doesn't make it an emergency on mine

last year I purchased a Aldi self inflating mat to use when I had my annual camp out. I used it as a mattress on my camp bed. I had a very comfortable sleep on the two and I would highly recommend it.

Been using a similar one (Coleman) for about 10 years now. Perfect addition to any sleep set.
