Buying new air mattresses. Looking at Big Agnes q something... Any experience to share, thanks... Would I need to carry pump? Decided I need more. Omfort than my old tbermarest can give. 3.5 in thick sounds like the ticket, smaller pack size is nice, internal pump? All bean has one...
Thanks for sharing.
I have a Big Agnes sleeping pad. It's pretty comfy, but not much that more than my thermarest. It does pack smaller and weighs less than my thermarest. I have no issues blowing it up by mouth, but many recommend using a pump to keep the down feathers inside from becoming damp.
A friend of mine tried a lot of different pads until he decided he needed to use a huge Thermarest Camprest to get a good nights sleep. The was thing huge and heavy, but very comfortable.
The closest pad Themarest sells now-a-days is this one.
