Best option for a mattress for car camping in the Subaru.
While prepping for a road trip my son decided he wanted to car camp a few nights under the stars. I did a lot of research, I wanted something that above all provided a lot of comfort (Not as young as I used to be) and since we would be traveling to the Grand Canyon I wanted something that had a high R value due to the cold nights in northern Arizona. There was no way to have the product delivered prior to leaving. I inquired about picking up at the company but they would be closed when I traveled through the Phoenix area. When I reached out to the company I spoke with Jacquie, explained the situation and was able to arrange shipment to a hotel that I would be staying at. The package arrived prior to my departure so we were able to use them on the trip home. When the package was received, there was a hand written note to have fun on the package.
Our first night with the mats- the set up was extremely easy. I unrolled them and let them plump up as I set up camp and made dinner. I used the air pump to add a little extra air to mine and my son said his was good without any additional air. Reducing the air level was easy and convenient. The next morning I used the air pump to deflate the mats and they rolled up nice and easily, to almost as thin as they were when they were received.
One the second night - the mats inflated well, and quicker than the first night. Was nice and warm and comfortable. The next morning we left early and not wanting to disrupt our neighbors, I folded the mats in half and then in half again to deflate them prior to rolling them up, using body weight to remove additional air as rolling them up. They were a little larger than when deflated with the air pump, but still fit in the carry bags provided.
Overall between the great customer service and the ease and comfort I would totally recommend this product to anyone looking for sleeping mat. Thank you
First and foremost I love this product. It’s comfortable, it’s easy to inflate/deflate, and it’s fairly durable. I do however think DeepSleep needs to make improvements.
I’ve now owned two of the solo mattresses for 4Runner standard size. My first issue is with the excessive price jump - both times I’ve purchased the mat previously the price was $169.99 + $25 for shipping. Why has the same exact mat, with no real tangible updates or additional benefits, jumped up $112? Even with potential production cost increases that substantial of an increase isn’t merited. My second issue is with how the mat’s quality holds up. As noted by some other customers the mat is excellent at the start, but after time/use the foam eventually loses quality and you’ll wake up with body-support points touching the floor - it’s why I invested in a second mattress to replace the first one. For the price that should not happen. Lastly, the mat could benefit from having a more water/dust proof exterior material, especially with being marketed as pet friendly. Elements/odors can seep through the mat and be absorbed by the foam with no way to clean it and I don’t believe the foam is hydrophobic.
after looking for a while i finally ordered the full set up for my bronco after testing at the overland expo near me. The matress fit is tight..but perfect and its super comfortable.
Just unroll..and didnt need a pump. pack up is nice and easy to.
I waited a few years to buy this, but now I wish I hadn’t waited so long- it was just what I needed for my Bronco set up. It fits perfectly and is surprising comfortable!
