Quality product. Good value. Holding up well by comparison.
I've previously purchased 3 different types of these inflatable pads and returned 2. Each of the 3 pads eventually failed to hold air after between 3 and 7 nights of sleeping on them. I returned the first 2 and kept the third because even though it didn't hold air after a few days, it was still foam padded and I figured that was the best I was going to get.Well, it's been over a year and that 3rd pad is physically disintegrating. So I decided to see what else is out there.I purchased this pad and am really impressed so far. It inflates easily (for me it's less than 18 full breaths to fill from empty), is actually really comfortable when inflated (compared to other options I've tested), it's super lightweight, and it holds air impressively. I can't say much about how durable it is over the long-term, but so far it's done better than any previous inflatable pad I've ever owned. All of which I paid more for.I'm reviewing this product because the seller sent me a followup email reminding me to review this product as well as to remind me of the lifetime warranty that this pad comes with.Well, I'm really happy with its performance so far. And the lifetime warranty gives me confidence that if it does end up leaking, it will be taken care of. But so far, I'm happy to report that it's been great.

Fits inside the Sleeping bag perfectly
I use this on a daily bases inside a van for now until I can convert it. The floor has heavy ripples, making it extremely uncomfortable without the padding. This pad makes it feel like it doesn't exist. It's easy to blow up with the one-way air valve. It's exactly as advertised and I love it!

Great value for price!
I was skeptical about “10-15 breaths” but that’s pretty much spot on. You can flip the valve in to be able to blow without any coming back out so definitely do that because I didn’t at first and about passed out from blowing and trying to not let any air come back out. These are super comfy for the money and I like that they’re narrow. It can go right in your sleeping bag and doesn’t take up too much space. I’m 6’ tall and it works great for me. I sleep on my back, stomach, and sides and was more than comfortable! If you’re a wider person this may not work for you since it is pretty slender.

Great pad
Awesome pad! Quick to inflate, comfortable and lightweight. Compacts down nicely as well. Have yet to test durability, but looks pretty strong and well made.

Great competition against the name brand pad makers
After purchasing this ground pads received a message from Joy the owner of AlphaBeing. She requested that I please leave a review. As it turned out I was leaving that Fri. for a 3 day 2 night bikepacking trip. The forecast was for some of the lowest temps in the Va. mountains this Fall. I loaded my bike and headed out planning to test my new ground pad, Please note that I didn't bring a spare pad in case of problems.My ground pad performed really well. I had a few issues but no real complaints. Bear in mind that I am a thru hiker of the 2000 mile Appalachian Trail and have backpacked/bikepacked for over 35 years so I kinda know what works.First the weight was 16.3 oz/17.3 with the included stuff sack. I felt the stuff sack was a bit heavy but very durable. The pad is a generous size at 23"X78". My 1 man tent had about 8" of extra headroom. If your tent is small the pad might not fit. Most pads from other companies are 20"X72" unless you get the bigger (more expensive) 25" X 76. I'm not sure where they get the 10-15 breaths to inflate. It took me appx 35/40 full breaths and I have great lung capacity. When I first laid on the pad the valve popped open! so I must have not pushed it in far enough. Omnly made that mistake once. I use a down quilt and slept fine in temps that were mid to low 30's although they may have dropped over night. The first morning I thought I'd lost a bit of air but when I tried blowing more in it only took about 3 breaths. It's going to take some time getting use to the diamond pattern as I've always slept on pad with air beams or channels. The pad deflated and packed easily even with cold fingers. There was little or no sliding and no noise when turning over. I do think the pad is more suited to 3 season use. Maybe 4 season with an underpad like ensolite.I've owned pads from Thermrest and Big Agnes and have paid almost $200 per pad in the past. Some have lasted 4-7 years and other's not so long. I'd love to see the big name companies embrace the same philosophy as AlphaBeing and offer pads at a price that more people can afford.Overall, I am very happy so far. I'll continue to use my pad over the winter and into the spring. They do offer a lifetime warranty.

Updated response 6/28/19, Leaked air, returned,
I am updating my review of this pad after receiving a replacement. The new pad worked great, quite comfortable after napping on it for 45 minutes on the living room floor. It is 1.1 pounds lighter and a lot less bulkier then my older light weight pad. it has no crinkle noise when laying on it like some other light weight pads have. I am looking forward to using it on my next backpacking trip in 3 weeks. Original complaint: Before taking the pad on a 3 day trip to the mountains I tested it on my kitchen floor. It took about 25-30 puffs of air to inflate instead of the smaller number advertised. I laid on the pad and could feel it going flat. I tried inflating it four times and each time it leaked to a point of being unusable within 10 minutes. Returned it for a refund. Outside of that failure, it is light, folds up small and would be perfect if it held air.
