EXPED Megamat 10 *After 90 Nights of Use*

- I have been sleeping on the Eped Megamat 10 on my trips over the course of the year and have over 90 days on it. I figured it was time to put out my thoughts on it. It held up extremely well and with the high number of nights I have slept on it I think the purchase was well worth the money. If I went out less often, the price point would have likely had me looking at cheaper options. If you have access to a store where you can actually lay on mattresses to test them out I highly recommend doing that before making a purchase.

I admire your honesty and straightforward even temper. I really enjoyed that review
Thank you very much! I hope it helps you decide which route you want to go.
Great video dude. Can’t put a price on a good nights sleep though!
Thanks! I agree and don't regret spending the money for this one bit.
12 to 15 years ago I purchased the Exped Deluxe insulated mattress with the built in pump. I have the one with synthetic insulation and I have no idea what the R value is. It's the best piece of gear I have ever bought. I am a side sleeper and it is total comfort. I use it on all the backpack trips. I even bought two more for my brothers so they have no excuses not to go camping. I use a sleeping bag cover (much like a divy) from Campmor, it keeps everything clean and keeps me from sliding off the mattress. You are right about Exped, they have the best products and stand behind their products.
yes absolutely a great product. I struggled with spending that much money initially, but me and my back have never been happier. I wish I had one years ago when I was a backpacker.
@@OverlandCallingexactly the same mate, I was hesitant at first but knew I couldn't bear another terrible night's sleep with a failed mattress. Sometimes in life you genuinely do get what you pay for (and some).
Love my Exped Megamet
yeah great product! I just spent another week sleeping on it on my recent trip. Pulled it up in the RTT since that mattress is a bit hard.
Great video, you're on my wavelength man, I've got the Megamat 10 XLB (same as this, might have a slightly different product name here in the UK), but it's the same for sure. It's like sleeping on a 5* hotel's mattress, incredibly comfy.
Having had terrible mattresses before, and little to no sleep because of it when camping, I bought one of these and by far worth the money.
Winter or summer, this offers comfort and warmth year round.
Thanks! Yeah I am super happy with this thing. Money well spent in my book.
@@OverlandCalling love it. Just subscribed too 😎
I know this is a month late. But the exped is the best camping mattress. Even better than my temperpedic. You’re right on the price, trying to shrink it down when leaving. But, I will continue to purchase this mattress. Great review.
Thanks! Glad it helped!
Thanks for making this video. I camp about 40 nights a year and have been struggling to get a good nights sleep. I've tried different cots and sleeping mats but as a side sleeper they're either uncomfortable or I bottom out and can feel the ground. Saw this product recommended on a few sites and think I will head over to my REI to see if I can check it out in person, I'd rather not gamble on whether this will suit me since it's pretty pricey!
Your are most welcome for the vid. Ya just can’t beat trying the mats out in person. Agree 100% that for the money these cost, trying out in person is the way to go before making a purchase. I hope this or one of the other ones in the store work out for you.
Enjoyed! Subbed!
awesome thanks!
