The biggest drawback to this product is the price.

If you re looking for a do it all pad the therm a rest neoair venture is a great pick especially if you prioritize a great night s sleep over carrying the lightest pack possible.
Our popular trekker chair uses ultralight nylon and fiberglass poles to pack small and creates a comfy place to rest and recover after a long day of hiking.
The pad utilizes the same internal baffle construction as other pads.
Its rectangular shape gave our side sleeping testers more room to roll around than the mummy shaped neoair xtherm it has an impressive r value of 4 9 but weighs more than our editors choice award winner.
This isn t obvious.
It isn t the lightest pad in the review but it is one of the most comfortable.
It s comfortable and lightweight.
The trekker is a more affordable descendant of the neoair which won our editors choice award in 2009.
However comfort wise i would say i preferred the alps pad over the neo air trekker even though the alps pad is only listed as 1 5 of thickness from the ground compared to the neo air trekker s 2 5.
It packs away in a small roll adapts to different sized pads and provides decent lower back support.
After years of gear testing it s rare that we get excited about new gear updates but after learning of therm a rest finally pulling the trigger on updating their valve system we got pretty excited.
The trekker is the base model in the neoair series.
The therm a rest neoair xlite is ideal for those looking to shave ounces off their overnight kit without sacrificing too much comfort or warmth.
The therm a rest neoair trekker sleeping pad is now 50 warmer than the previous version pushing its comfort range well into spring and fall backpacking trips.
The therm a rest neoair all season sv is a warm and comfortable pad.
Unlike the all season xlite and xtherm its internal baffles are made of nylon not reflective foil material.
Trickle down technology comes to sleeping pads.
The padding within the alps pad as well as the width seemed more conducive to side sleepers.
Add in the fact that it is one of the least expensive and you can understand why it won our best buy award.
