purchased two 3" Browning pads for a weekend tent camping with my 7 yr old son in the northern Adirondacks this weekend. Both nights were in the mid 20's but these lightweight pads kept the ground from sapping heat and in fact were "warm" underneath. I was highly impressed, especially after finding out firsthand how cold your body gets sleeping on an inflatable "mattress" in the winter. The open air space of one of them "sucks" the heat right out of your body. The insulating properties of these pads, the light weight and the compactness of them made a believer out of me and made me feel good that my son was as warm and comfortable as I.
