1.0 out of 5 stars 2 of 3 failed on second night, August 12, 2007

This review is from: Guide Gear® 2' Self - inflating Mat Green (Misc.)

I bought three of these in February in preparation for a road trip of multiple camp-outs which ended up just happening now in August. they were for myself, my wife, and my five year old daughter. The first night these three mats earned a five star rating in my estimation. They were comfortable, they all snapped together making one large mat and they even looked nice.

On the second night, we heard a "Snap!" and my wife said "what was that?" I told her it was probably one of the snaps coming undone which connected our mats. A few minutes later another "Snap!". Before long we realized that both her mat and mine had popped. My daughter's mat remains to date in good shape, though she only weighs 42 pounds. We were in a tent and were using a ground cloth so there were no direct sharp points causing a rupture. It was simply our body weight (195 and 170 lbs) which caused the failures.

Needless to say, we had one comfortable night and six very uncomfortable nights.

One failure is bad. One failure on the second night of use is very bad. Two failures on the second night of use is more than bad, it is bad design.

If you opt for this one, you had better bring a backup as sleeping on the ground is not pleasant, as I can tell you with better knowledge now, than before my experience with these nice looking but failure prone products.

The mat is comfortable but self-inflating is a bit of a stretch. When you open the valve the mat will inflate slightly to relieve the pressure that is applied by rolling the air out. A few breaths will finish the job and the interior padding makes this mat better than others.
