Most self inflating camping mats are standard size and being a large person at 6' tall and 18 stone in weight I had yet to find a suitable mat that was large enough and comfortable. That was until now, this item is extra wide and long and is extremely comfortable to lie on. I thought 7.5cm thick might not be enough and considered the heavier 10cm one but this mat is more than comfy enough. I opened it up and left to fully inflate overnight, it was comfortable enough at that but I then put about 3 extra breaths in just to firm it up a bit more and that was more than enough. Tried out on living room floor overnight and had a great nights sleep. The valve was easy to operate both in inflate and deflate mode, it didn't go down overnight and I even put a few small items (non sharp) underneath to represent stones/uneven surface and didn't feel them. Not cheap at £55 but the price was worth it for a good nights sleep. I also purchased a Canyon Cruise extra wide 7.5cm mat for a side by side comparison, it was half the price and exactly the same size so had it been as good I would have returned the Vango one and kept the Canyon. You could feel the quality difference straight away and whilst having 2 valves instead of one like the Vango they were not non return valves so difficult to blow extra air in without then losing pressure while fiddling to screw the valves shut.I sent the Cruise mat back and kept the more expensive Vango one which felt firmer and had a better valve arrangement. Only improvement could be a lower price and I would have then given it 5 stars.Read full review

Incredibly comfortable and self inflating. About the size of a standard single mattress. Perfect for car camping / campsite, way too bulky and heavy for backpacking but it’s not designed for that. Works perfectly as a spare mattress and packs away reasonably small to stash at a home. Third is the 7.5 depth but I wish I’d love to try the 10cm!

Suitable for base camping but far to big to hike with; as a side sleeper I found it very comfortable, easy to inflate/deflate with the special valve. Camped in February with the scouts and found it insulated well. I wish I had invested in one ages ago!

Looks like the answer to a decent nights sleep u derived canvas, easy to inflate and deflate and not too bulky when packed. The grande is wider than most and that makes a big difference

Bought 2 of these. They fit the width of the Rib 150cm wide rock an roll bed in my T5. The valve is good at helping to roll them up after use.
