We describe what we like about our Thermarest Z-Lite sleeping pads, which we have used for over 4,000 miles of backpacking. We like that these pads are:
-Light
-Reliable
-Durable
-Easy
-Cheap
We sleep on our sides, and we find that stretching is all we need to do to be comfortable with closed cell foam pads like these.
