The Sea to Summit Comfort Deluxe delivered on both warmth and comfort Laura Lancaster I also appreciated that I was able to inflate this camping mattress to my preferred level of firmness after the self-inflation period was complete. The 6.5 R rating here was more than enough to protect me from the cold of the ground while sleeping outside in temps that fell to the 40s. Its four inches of foam not only made this pad super cushy but also provided substantial warmth. Of everything, the Sea to Summit Comfort Deluxe came closest to the feel of my mattress at home-easily the most comfortable double camp bed in my test. The Sea to Summit Comfort Deluxe was so cushy that I actually forgot I was sleeping on a camping mattress.

Camping mattresses that only use air provide essentially no insulation from the cold of the ground, and typically do not have R ratings. Where sleeping pad manufacturers once conducted their own testing (or in some cases simply guessed) as of 2020, R ratings are standardized by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). The R value measures how well the pad insulates (or “resists,” hence the R, the cold,) with 1 being the lowest rating (suitable for lowland camping at the height of summer) all the way up to 10 (typically only needed in extreme conditions). While air mattresses and closed-cell foam mattresses will be the same size in both situations (small and huge, respectively), self-inflating mattresses, which should be left inflated when stored in your home, can be rolled up to a manageable size in transit.Īs anyone who has been camping during a shoulder season knows, the cold from the ground will suck out your body heat faster than cold air, leaving you shivering underneath even the best sleeping bags and best camping blankets. There are two stored sizes to keep an eye on when choosing a camping mattress for couples-the stored size in your car, and the stored size in your home. While those that use both foam and air typically feel more like the mattress you use at home (and also are typically middle of the road for durability and packed size), they are almost always the most difficult to set up and pack away. Camping mattresses that include foam tend to be bulkier, while all-air mattresses tend to suffer more long-term durability issues and have more motion transference that can be a problem for light sleepers. There are advantages and disadvantages to these different makeups. Some camping mattresses for couples use all foam, some use all air, and some use a combination of both. Nylon is generally a stronger material than polyester, but laminates (which can make a pad more airtight) apply better to polyester than to nylon. Most camping mattresses for couples are around 75D in thickness, with a thicker shell providing additional durability. The exterior of inflatable camping mattresses for couples are typically constructed from either polyester or nylon at varying thicknesses, which is measured in denier (D).
