Why We Like The NEMO Tensor Trail Sleeping Pad
Packing to the size of a 32-ounce water bottle and delivering ground insulation, the NEMO Tensor Trail Sleeping Pad is a comfort item and ultralight option in one. The floating Thermal Mirror reflects our body heat back to us without making a sound when we shift, and the zero-profile valve lets us get the feel just right for ultimate comfort in the backcountry. From camp to camp, this pad rolls up and stuffs away compactly, adding just a pound to our pack.

Great Pad, Warm and Light
I'd like to start by disclaiming that I'm a big Nemo fan; I had to stop myself from getting their sleeping bag because I already own their Hornet Elite tent, this Tensor pad, the Switchback pad, their moonlite chair, and their fillo, and I didn't want to look like I robbed a Nemo display. That being said, this pad is definitely one of the nicest I've used - I'm a side sleeper, so even though I own the Nemo Switchback and enjoy it, the tensor really gives me the support I look for. It's really lightweight and doesn't take up too much room in my pack. Living in the Sonoran Desert, the Tensor Trail is preferable to the All-Season or Extreme Conditions, as I often don't need crazy insulation. After reading other reviews, I've noticed a lot of people talking about the pad leaking or getting holes - I have not had any issues yet, but I still try and baby as well as I can. In all, I think this is a great pad - I suggest the Regular Wide if you want a bit more room.

Lightweight, held up on Thru Hike
I was able to comfortably sleep on my side, and the pad lasted me on my last two months of a thru hike.

Best pad ever
I’ve used this pad approximately 30 times on backpacking and camping trips in a variety of conditions and it has held up perfectly. I’m a side sleeper and it is lofty enough to precent my hips and shoulders from touching the ground while side-lying. Insulation is nice, i’m excited to try the higher R-value Tensors as well. Highly recommend this pad for anyone

My first ever sleeping pad!
I’ve used the Tensor Trail pad a few times now backpacking and it has been amazing. I love how light it is and easy to inflate. It’s surprisingly comfortable and cushiony.

Worth the buy
Bought three for me and my boys. Absolutely notice the R value difference for our old pads vs. These. Great.

Worth every penny
This sleeping pad has everything you want for an ultralight backpacking pad. You can inflate it quickly, and is very comfortable and keeps you warm. I’ve spent years looking for the right pad, and I’m glad I’ve found it.

Good, but not great
This pad is sooo close to being excellent. I would recommend getting the all-season for only 3 more ounces.

Another Nemo win
Sweet sleep with this thing. Easy to inflate, holds its air, those baffle things inside keep it flat so no rolling off and I felt well supported. Can't speak to it's durability yet only had it long enough to use in a backyard overnight shakedown. Outside of those guys/gals in the hyper ultra light crowd I don't think you'll find better. I love it.

Best sleep I’ve had
My brother let me use this pad on several camping and hiking trips and I decided I could not live without it. I’ve tried a few other sleeping pads and nothing compares. I’m 6’ and the long is honestly more than enough, I could’ve probably gone with the regular but definitely pick up the wide.
