Price : $60
Colors : Grey with a white top, green with a white top,
Features :
Lightweight inflatable pillow with a layer of comfortable, quiet down insulation for camping or travel
Multi-function flat air mini valve provides easy inflation, fast deflation and the ability to fine-tune the pressure
Technical fabrics reduce weight, are durable, and will withstand exposure to moisture
Compatible with Sea to Summit camping sleeping mats with PillowLock patches to secure pillow in place
Baffle design reduces migration of down - in other words, it keeps the down in place so that you don’t develop a pocket of down. It’s always spread out
Review Pros :
Very comfortable - feels great on your head and also your face.
Excellent quality - never an issue with leaking
Plenty big especially if you are seeking a balance of weight and comfort.
Multi-function valve is excellent
Easy to inflate
Easy to deflate and roll up
Valve allows for easy adjustment of firmness
Extremely small when compressed
Very, very lightweight
Comparable Price to other name brand camping pillows - with that being said, there are plenty of pillows on the market that are much less expensive.
Review Cons :
If you are a VERY light sleeper, there is a bit of a noise to the down pillow top that you may hear as your reposition.
Not the thickest of pillows but when it comes to a camping pillow, most aren’t all that thick. For myself, I find that with a jacket under the pillow, it sits high enough for me to be comfortable.
Down topper isn’t revolutionary - it’s definitely nice but it doesn’t add a ton of comfort to this pillow.
Summary :
For most of my life I have been wadding up a jacket and using that as a pillow. I can tell you this, this is far FAR more comfortable than that solution and here’s the best news; it adds very little weight to your pack.
Over the years I have used a number of pillows that were comfortable enough but ultimately I leave them behind.
That’s not the case with this pillow; I’ve enjoyed using this pillow and for most trips, this is something that I am going to grab. It’s very lightweight, comfortable to use and I can easily recommend it.
Who should be interested in this product? I would say anyone; this is going to be a great addition to any kit and it doesn't matter if you are overlanding or backpacking.
