Wowzas, I've been looking hard at sleeping pads and poof, this pops up! The biggest complaints I read on this thing is the sound it makes- anyone able to chime in on the reduction/increase in noise after more usage, etc?

treal512I never found the sound to be loud to begin with, so I haven't noticed any difference after two years of use. However, I solo camp, so there's no potential for a tent mate to be bothered by it either. I did read earlier models were really loud, like bag-of-SunChips loud. If you live near an REI you can go test it out at the store to see what you think.

treal512I have one from last year. I don't mind the noise but my backpacking mates did comment on it. Made me feel a little bad!

treal512This pad does indeed make an audible crinkling sound. I work at an outdoor equipment store, and I believe it was said that if you roll around a lot in the night and are a light sleeper, this isn't the pad for you. Otherwise, Therm-a-rest has a lot of good pads available. This is however one of the lightest ones available. If you like I can ask the super experienced people and see if there's a way to muffle it.
