About Therm-a-Rest
In 1971, Seattle aerospace giant Boeing announced the largest layoff in company history, resulting in 50,000 people losing their jobs. Among the jobless were Jim Lea and Neil Anderson, both engineers who were eager to get back to work. Turning to friend John Burroughs--an avid mountain climber--for ideas, Burroughs suggested a better sleeping mattress, specifically one that was lightweight, warm, and comfortable. Taking their inspiration from gardening cushions that expelled air as the gardener shifted his or her weight, the duo took a piece of open-cell foam and sandwiched it between two pieces of airtight fabric. Using an old sandwich maker, they melted the fabric onto the foam, creating a bond that was perfectly airtight. After adding a valve, their prototype was ready to test. Within two years, Lea and Anderson had partnered with Burroughs to begin production of Therm-a-Rest pads, the world's first self-inflating mattress. Under the name Cascade Designs, the private, family-owned company has grown into one of the most respected outdoor manufacturers in the world. Still based in Seattle, Cascade Designs sticks to the same fundamental principles it was founded upon: providing relevant and innovative products, exceptional quality, and service that exceeds your expectations.

Thermarest rule! Turning concrete into warm comfort and a life time guarantee can't be beaten.

I bought the Thermarest based on the reviews. I thought the extra money spent would be gaining me the comfort over the Pad I was currently using and complaining about. Wrong. It is a bit better but not like the reviews led me to believe. Yes you may not feel the rock under you but it still feels like you are sleeping on the ground with a pad IMO. I have used it 5 times now on scout outings and having switched around with other leaders in trying to find the best Pad, this one didn't rank up there.

we've owned many of these over the years. this is the latest version I've had and continue to find it a great product. I use this in combo with a cot for extended camp stays.

Got tired of sleeping on a lumpy mattress and thought I'd try this. It's sad when sleeping on the floor is more comfortable than sleeping in a bed, but this mattress delivers! Slept on it for over a month, now, and love it! Can finally sleep the night through. Haven't tried it out camping, but I'm sure it will be just fine, when I do. Wouldn't trade it for the world!


 "Not worth the money" 2009-06-22

I bought this pad hoping it would be more comfortable than pads I had purchased at a local sporting goods store. Not only is it less comforable than the coleman pad I used last year it is not 2 inches thick as the ad claims. 1 inch maybe. Not worth the price.
