another awesome sleeping pad made my nemo.. I don't know why anyone would buy a sleeping pad from anywhere else.... comfort, durability, warmth, weight ratio is unbeatable. The only thing I wish was an option was a "short" option for us shorties not needing the extra length!

This sleeping pad is super comfy. I've used this on many camping trips and backpacking trips. I sleep on this almost as well as I sleep at home.

I picked this up for a cold weather overnight on Mt Charleston outside of Las Vegas. The temps at altitude dropped to freezing and this pad saved my sleep. I was pushing the edge of my quilt's comfortable rating and this pad was the saving grace keeping me warm and comfortable all night. Even as a side sleeper I had no issues getting comfortable for a relaxing night before hitting the summit the next day.

My sleep has been awesome since I started using the Tensor. The R value allows me to back a lighter bag or quilt but stay warmer. The high, wide design that packs incredibly small while still being light and insulated is what you want to remember for this review. I use a quilt sheet with a quilt when it is cold - its an awesome combination with the Tensor. I recommend a pocket inflator!

A heavy user will spend about 12 nights a year on their backpacking sleeping pad. I just completed the PCT, and using the metric above, I just put 10 years of use on this sleeping pad without a single leak puncture or problem. Every night feels like I'm sleeping in a five star hotel. I can't say enough good things about this sleeping pad. I highly reccomend it.

I have a Nemo Tensor pad that I had used a dozen times or so and then it started slowly deflating overnight. I looked for leaks and couldn't find any. Eventually I gave up looking and put the pad in a storage bin. A year later, I saw that Nemo had a lifetime warranty and reached out to see what they could do. I figured it was a long shot! They were amazing. Got back to me quickly, reviewed my issue and sent out a new pad! While it sucks that the pad had a leak, a known issue with baffles, the fact that they stand behind their products makes this a company I will support over the long-term! Kudos Nemo for being a company of your word!

Bought for Backcountry Hunting, but with its size and Warmth rating, i also use for bikepacking. allows me to carry a smaller sleeping bag and still say warm!

I have only tried it out at home so far but it is far more comfortable than any other pad I have had. It comes with a bag pump, but I personally thought blowing it up by mouth was far more efficient and then you can drop a few ounces for the pack.

After owning many pads from all the major brands, I have finally found the one for me. I tend to toss and turn between side, stomach, and back sleeping. The All-Season Tensor's thickness and quiet fabric made these movements comfortable for me and quiet for my campmates. The real test was having my dog camp with me, who tends to sleep at my feet. His nails didn't puncture the pad, and "wide" options gave him plenty of room to share it with me.

I've had a couple tensors and just got this one. It's just as comfortable as the others. The valve on this one seems a little beefier than the first one. It's easier to grasp and get it open. Kept me comfy and warm, and I'm sure it will continue to do so for many nights to come.

Wanted a long wide sleeping pad for camping and backpacking. This pad packs up so small and weighs almost nothing. Found it a little noisy but that was partially my fault for inflating the pad too much.

Just back from a section hike on the AT. My most comfortable sleep ever in the outdoors - I've been backpacking since 1976. I recommend the extra long, wide version - I paired this with a quilt and it was easy to spread out, sleep on stomach or back, and there was zero noise when moving around. I never fell off the pad during the night - a first. The size and weight are small as well - this seems to be an easy pick for a thru hiker. Keep up the great work Nemo!

I've used the Tensor sleeping pad on a couple of backpacking trips now, and it's hands-down one of the best pads I've ever owned. It strikes the perfect balance between comfort and packability.

Bought this for bikepacking and I'm stoked. Tested one out in REI before purchasing and accidentally napped for 45 minutes. Quiet, lite weight, warm?..what more could you want.

Have used the wide regular pad for multiple backing packing trips last year. Just picked up the wide long (I'm 5-10), because I move a lot in my sleep and needed the extra length so that my feet are not off the edge of the pad in the middle of the night. The pad is plenty warm and comfortable for the shoulder seasons in the Idaho Mountains.

Excited to get more nights on this pad in the Rocky Mountains. Makes my quilt much more suitable to use. It also packs down much smaller than other pads I have!

I have been a buy the cheap mats my whole like and took the plunge to buy a more expensive mat. It was worth every penny! The best mat I have ever owned and with the fill bag an eye catcher to those inflating by mouth.

Recently upgraded from and Astro insulated and the warmth is amazing super comfortable and quiet. Only used it car camping and can't wait to try it on a backpacking trip.
