Question: Just bought this and it doesn't fully inflate on either end.  Wondering if this is a common problem or if I just got a defective pad?
Document: I had already bought the ALPS Outfitter air pad which I was very happy with. Only problem was that I got the extra long. Now that is really really long - dont get that size unless you are 6' or more. I gave it to my son and then got the regular size in the Comfort series. Its still long and takes my 5'8'' length with room to spare. Only drawback is that it is narrower. But what I really love about ALPS is that they are foolproof to set up.
I got the 3" thick pad and I am quite pleased with its comfort. The only issue I had with it, is that it needs a good half hr (give or take) to fully inflate. And regardless of that fact, if the weather is colder, then it will never reach full capacity until your body heat primes up the foam. You can always wake up in the morning, pop the 2 valves, and hear a good amount of air rushing in.
Several people rated this a 1* stating that it doesn't inflate. I have to wonder if they got a defective product and should have exchanged. As soon as mine arrived I unpacked it, opened the valves (I ordered the XL, so there are two valves), and it puffed right up - without any assistance. The little dots on the bottom keep it from sliding in the tent - and my sleeping bag barely slides around on the top. All in all - couldn't be happier.
I had my air bed but require 4 x D size batteries to operate. Upon getting this item and opening it i got quite a suprise that it actually comes with a repair kit! This air pad eliminate the use of pumps and batteries making it more lightweight and environmentally friendly. It fits into a tent or hammock. My hip does not touch ground when fully lie down sidways, just blow more air into it and remember to close the valve if it's too soft.
Yes, this pad takes a very long time to inflate the first time it is opened. I left them on the ground for several hours before they completely inflated the first time. However, they are surprisingly comfy for camping. My boyfriend and I slept on them no problem for 3 nights in a row.
I bought this camping pad to replace a stolen REI one. It operates like any pad. I found this one to be quite warm. I own five sleeping bags and with the use of this pad, the bags are good for their rating. In the end, the pad makes all the difference.
I bought 2 of these sleeping pads after first purchasing the low end therm-a-rest pad (thin rubbery green pad), which by the way, I ended up sending back. These things are so much nicer than the cheap therm-a-rest pads! They seem like they are more heavy duty and could withstand a beating. Plus they come with straps, a repair kit and a carrying case. Great value! We used them this passed weekend and they were great!
I bought two of these and have used them on three different occasions. I've had no problem with leaking air.
I bought the regular size pad. Keep in mind the one they display on the video is the comfort series size XL. It sports two valves on either side of the pad. The regular size has only a single valve port. When you receive your air pad it probably will take some time filling due to being stored compactly for some time. Training your pad helps to insure your pad will respond much quicker when you are out on a trail or during a slumber anywhere.
Leave the valve open until you are ready for bed, that way the pad will have had time to relax and fully inflate. This will help give you a great sleeping surface all night.
Answer: yes
