Exped FlexMat LW

Purchased to replace my previous Kaira. Not as good insulation but more convenient and easier to transport.

Insulates well under a 3r mattress on a winter hike and also works well as a base during breaks. Packs up easily

Worked well under an inflatable in the winter. Provides protection and keeps out a little cold.

Very high quality and good sized mattress.

I had been looking for a wide and long foam mat for a long time. I thought for a long time between Thermarest RidgeRest Classic Large and Expedi Flexmat LW. However, I ended up buying both due to the good aspects of both. The absolute advantage of the Flexmat is that it is quick to set up and pack compared to the rollable ones, at the same time the product in question was lighter than the rollable competitor and can be packed in a slightly smaller size. The Flexmat felt exactly as high-quality as you would expect from Expedi (I have previously owned two of their air-filled sleeping mats). Surprisingly comfortable just like that, but I mainly bought this one as additional insulation/protection under an air-filled mattress, and for other possible sitting outdoors only half-opened. We only tested this in slight frosts against cold pavement, lying in a fairly sturdy sleeping bag, and I must say that I am surprised by its functionality. I really didn't expect such good insulation and I think the extra width prevents the cold ground from blowing out of the sides very effectively. Really quick and easy to fold up and attach to the side/under the backpack with the tightening straps. I can highly recommend it to anyone who appreciates a multi-purpose and high-quality product in a larger size than a traditional foam mat. In the photo, Exped Flexmat LW on the left (Green)

Good and light

Comfortable wide sleeping platform. I'm getting 2 of these to get a platform like a double bed for a 3-person tent and additional protection for the air-filled sleeping platforms. Now, it doesn't matter if your hand swells out of air at night on the cold ground.

Works as it should under a wide and thick air platform as protection.

The best cell plastic base when you need a long and wide one. The accordion model does not start rolling on its own. Even a taller hiker can lie on it.
