Update Dec 19. Used for the 3 1/2 month overland trip. Never went down, great for side sleeping too and used in tent with snow all around. Definitely the insulated version was the one to go for. friend had thermorest - which was SO noisy, so great all-rounder. Getting one for hubby as Patagonia next!
I kept using this on top of my mattress when I got home, it's that good. Unfortunately, it somehow sprung a slow leak. I set it aside until I could afford another one or find a way to repair this one and suffered a month or two on my regular bed.
Finally just figured out the problem and solution. It didn't seem likely it was punctured, so concentrated on the valve. Filled it up and listened to hear a low hiss of air escaping around that area. Confirmed with a little bit of soapy water and could see it was around the outside of the plastic spinner.
I was going to email for a replacement, but it does look fine and without wear. I just popped the piece out of its socket and put it into a ziplock bag. Then I cut a hole on the bottom so air could get in and after popping the spinner back into it's socket, cut the rest of the bag off. It effectively created a seal around the spinner.
So glad this thing is back in action! It's a very good product.
I don't know what were they thinking designing this valve system.
It is guaranteed to leak air no matter what you do.
While you inflate it the valve could pop out and it will leak as it is a removable part.
Watch the video and you be the judge if this is something you want to sleep on. The air seal is the cap on top of the valve.
If the insulation would have been thinker you would not mind the air leaking out. I don't know what to say ...
I'm so sad. I have two other klymit pads, but those have a "classic" (screw) valve system.
Unpacked,inflated, deflated and packed this pad hundreds of times over 7months no leaks. I did wear out the carry bag...emailed Klymit and they sent a new one free within a week.
