Vango Shangri-La II Self Inflating Mattress With Memory Foam Inflatable Camping Mat 10cm Thickness, Single (Grande)

Having been through a number of air beds for camping over the years, I wish I had got this one 10 years ago. I took it camping recently and it was the most comfortable sleep camping I've ever had. Inflation and deflation are pretty easy, it self inflates, but needs a little top up at the end and it deflates its self with the rolling it up to put back in the bag expelling the last bits of air. It is a little more bulky than regular air beds but nothing to much (and it fits back in the bag quite easily, no need to wrestle it in) I highly recommend this product for camping and possibly as a spare bed should you need one.

The Grande 10 strikes perfect balance of packed size and comfort. I find it a lot easier to pack two grande in your car, than one double. Two together is the same size as a king size mattress. So a fitted sheet on top, with your choice of duvet or double sleeping bag and it really is a camping upgrade. Really comfortable; my wife has her mattress a little firmer than I do mine. There is even less chance of disturbing your partner for a night wee, when you have 2 mattresses too. I've had no issue deflating and packing away either. The trick is to loosely roll up with the deflate valve position, let it unroll, then roll again, this time tightly.

After three uses of this mattress on camping trips, it has started to deflate slowly throughout the night. After literal hours of checking for a puncture, I found the air leaking from the seam itself.The other mattress, same make and brand is completely fine- just be aware, that this seller does not reply to complaints.

Bought to use as an occasional bed - it's super, no regrets. So worth the money. Ended up using it every day for a month and no back pain or aches. What makes it great is you can fine tune the air volume so you can achieve your perfect mattress firmness. It's been used for well over 150 nights, been taken to sleepovers by the kids and it's still in great condition. Yes, its difficult to get super small again but there has to be trade off for comfort.

I bought two of these for a family camping trip, one for each adult. As we drive to the campsite, these were fine but I wouldn't want to go hiking with these attached to a backpack, as they are quite heavy and big when rolled up.The sleeping mat self-inflates, although it can be helped along by blowing into it to get the right firmness. I would advise inflating and deflating three times before taking it camping, as it inflates better after a few uses. It takes about 3 minutes for the mat to inflate and it can be deflated quite quickly.Once inflated, the mat is pretty comfortable in terms of camping comfort. The width of the mat is just right for one adult and I wouldn't have wanted to sleep on anything more narrow than this. We opted for the Shangri La II 10 over the 15 because of price, but I think that extra bit of depth would help make it more comfortable. We found that adding a nice thick blanket on top, before the sleeping bag did make it more cosy and comfortable.The mat rolls back up fairly easily; however, to get maximum compaction, I found rolling and squeezing out the air, then unrolling it and doing it again helped massively.Overall, I am happy with my purchase; however, I do feel that it was expensive for what it is. It isn't the lightest thing, or smallest thing, to transport. If comfort is essential to your trip, this is better than most SIMs that I've previously tried.

Comfy, but a bit bulky and takes up more room than ideal, especially for a blow up. Hard to deflate and get back in its bag. Also the valve broke after a couple usages.... Waiting on a response for a replacement, but I have not seen this happen to anyone else so maybe we are just unlucky.

This sleeping mat, is pretty compact when rolled up and not too heavy. It's a generous size for a single.It's incredibly comfortable, feels similar to memory foam. Looking forward to a good nights when we go camping :) Would buy every time, over any inflatable camp bed. Highly recommend :)

Very comfortable great night sleep
