Static V2

We love these. Light for biking. Quick to blow up. And most importantly, when you lie on your side, you don't feel pressure on your hip all night long.

Before bringing it out camping, I tested it using it on a cot in my house. I woke up to it mostly deflated. Used a spray bottle and soapy water to find a leak on the top side near the torso area. I checked both sides and only found the one leak. Will use the included patch kit and recheck for leaking.No instructions for the patch. I'm assuming it goes on dry. I will let it cure for 24 hours before reinflating.Very comfortable no matter how you lay on it. I'm upset that it came with a leak but it's comfy enough I'm going to try to salvage it.EDIT: Had to reinflate twice overnight. Can't find the leak with soapy water. I bring a small pump when backpacking since I do cold weather hiking so it's not a major issue, but if you don't plan on pairing this with a foam pad you will wake up on the ground. With a 2.2 R-value foam pad underneath I started to get cold at freezing temperatures. Did a lot better than I expected it to in cold weather.Update #2: Klymit replaced my pad no questions asked. Love great customer service.

Only used for a couple of trips, but served its purpose well so far. Reasonably comfy for the size. Wonderfully compact and quick to inflate! If it holds up, it'll definitely be worth the money!

I was really depending on this to keep my sleeping bag off the cold, hard, rocky ground.It was great the first night, but by the second night, it was somehow loosing air.I packed/rolled it up inside the tent and there was absolutely no reason why it should have gotten punctured. It was packed at the base of my backpack between the sleeping bad, sleeping bag liner, and clothes.I blew it up twice on the 2nd night - hoping I had just forgotten to flip the deflate valve or hadn't put enough air in it -- but both times I woke up rolling over rocks on the freezing cold ground as it could no longer hold air.Out of desperation to not have just a sleeping bag on rocks in freezing temperatures I tried it one last time on the third night -- and it was flat in less than an hour. Luckily others in the back packing group were able to help out with tarps and table cloth type items -- but it was still a pretty much sleepless night with a 8 mile hike the next day.This sleeping pad is going in the trash and I'm looking for a sleeping pad that can make it longer than one night. Super disappointed.**Note - I did blow it up and test it prior to leaving...so I was aware of how the the inflate/deflate worked and how it packed up. I'm also very careful with gear. It was rolled up inside a tent and packed in its bag when it went back into the backpack. There is absolutely NO reason it should have been loosing air on the second use. These products should be made for camping/backpacking conditions -- routine blow up and pack away shouldn't be an issue.

This review is based on five days use on the Southern Section of the Pacific Crest Trail in May. Temperature ranged from 50-74 degrees Fahrenheit. The compact stowage size was plus when competing with limited pack space. The innovative flip filling valve functioned as designed. When sleeping atop the mattress, my bag tended to slide off. However, sleeping direct on the mattress with a quilt was excellent. No leakage noted. I never “grounded” during the trip. For spring, summer, camping the gear performed as advertised. Not tested in fall, or winter, temperature range. Given the price point, demonstrated performance, compactness, and light weight; the Klymit mattress is a solid value.

I used this for some tent camping. Not too much hiking; just some walk in campsites. If your not worried about ounces the extra money for the ultralight may not be worth it. I have the standard KLYMIT Static V2 Sleeping Pad as well, and for me its hard to justify the extra money for the weight difference. Every other claim about this pad is true. Its comfortable, it is easy to inflated, and deflate, and is very light, and packable. I weigh in at around 170 pounds, and am a side sleeper. I am able to sleep comfortable throughout the night on this pad. I am a summer camper, but camp in Colorado, so the nights get pretty chilly, and this pad keeps me off the cold ground. I have not had any issues with it deflating during the night; with either pad. My wife likes hers a lot as well.

Just back from a three night four day through hike of the Art Lobe trail. This pad went flat every night...I am using a sandwich bag doubled over and that seems to help. Love the weight ..

This was a really great air mattress for the money. I recently was at a campsite with very gravel heavy ground, and it made all the difference to protect me from those rocks.
