Good pad. A little thin, but it is still better than nothing. I much prefer the full length because I don't like my feet to be touching the ground either. Very light weight.

Unbelievable!!! I was a little sketchy about the thickness and the width at first, but after sleeping on it for a night, I was no longer sketchy. I wouldn't think there is a better sleeping pad on the market right now, and if there is I want to know about it. It is perfect for Backpacking but I still will use it for car camping or even visits to friend's places! Its that comfortable. The stuff sack is a tad snug, you just need to take the extra time to roll it tighter, nothing though to discourage me from using it. Worth every penny, I woudn't buy anything but a therm-a-rest.

THick and heavy Coleman, yet comfortable and ideal for Car Camping, or a Girlfriend that needs ultimate comfort just to get her to go backpacking. About 3 times heavier than my UltraLite Long.

This Ultralite pad is only 1" thick, yet it make a huge difference in comfort over a thin foam pad. I've always heard great things about Therm-a-Rest pads & I've heard right. I decided to go with this one over the Guidelite-long. For 1.5 lbs, the UL-long has the best performance/weight ratio. I think full-length pads are worth their extra weight. After a long day of hiking, who wants to have their weary feet lay on the cold, hard ground? One thing: I got frustrated trying to fold and squeeze the UL-long pad in it's tiny stuff sack, so I exchanged it for the GL-3/4 sack and it easily slides in, sans folding. I also like to blow up the pad myself, cuz it's a little slow to self-inflate...now if only I could get the gf to blow... I agree with all the other reviews...Great pad! Worth every penny, but all Therm-a-Rests are pricey, so shop around on the Net!

EMS 3/8" closed-cell foam pad (Yeah, it's only 6 oz, but you feel 6 lbs of rocks under you!)

I bought this thing back in November 2001. I bought it from Campmor.com for just under $40.00. So lightweight and comfortable. I would pay the full amount of $80.00 if I had to. I was using the Mountain Hardware sleeping pad. It was nice, but bulky and kinda heavy.

Didnt need to use them

This is my first self-inflating sleeping pad and I love it! WOW, these are great to sleep on. If I sleep on my back,the ultralight is almost as comfortable as snoring on my mattress at home. I use it on backpacking trips, where its lightweight, compact design is greatly appreciated. The ability to fold the pad in half lengthwise, before rolling it up, results in a size the right length to fit in my backpack widthwise instead of lenghtwise. For the convenience and extra protection, I went ahead and bought the little stuff sack for the pad. Fits great! While a little spendy for my college budget, the Ultralight is definitely worth the money. Its hard to put a price on good sleep!

So far I have had no need to contact them, so I really don't know.

Those thin closed cell foam pads, and the thicker closed cell/open cell foam hybrids.

i guess these things went down in cost bt i still would pay what i did for mine. very small, comfortable for me (5'9" 140 lbs) and adds i would guess 5* in temp compaired to a compressed foam pad. i have had mine for 3 years and have no problems at all.

compressed foam.

wow what a great pad. at 1 lb 8 oz this is the lightest pad on the market and it is very comfortable. I only weight in at 145 and i have yet to feel that i am pushing the limits of this pad. a bit steep in price and a little heavy but hey you can cut weight somewhere else, pack light by day, sleep heavy by night.

Customer Service

not yet, 3 years and no problems

awesome product. Takes up half the space as the typical thermarest (guidelite?) does in your pack and is lighter. It is thinner, but I sleep just as well on this as I do my guidelite model. For car camping I use them both! Absolutely no complaints.
