My wife and I have been looking at pillows for backpacking. I currently stuff clothes (usually my down jacket) in this:
It works alright but I'm curious to see if I'd like an inflatable better. More support, etc.
I'm looking for a light weight option so the contenders seem to be:
Sea To Summit Aeros Pillow Premium - 2.8 or 3.7 oz.
Seat To Summit Aeros Ultralight Pllow - 2.1 or 2.5 oz.
Exped Air Pillow UL - 1.6 or 2.1 oz. (@Nick gave it a big thumbs down for slipperiness)
Exped Air Pillow - 2.6 or 3.2 oz.
Klymit Cush Seat/Pillow - 2.89 oz
From another thread I know several of you (@steve , @Nick, @Opi , @IntrepidXJ, @Miss Buffalo maybe @gnwatts) have the Klymit pillow.
Is the Klymit pillow the hands down winner? Anyone else have any thoughts?
Is the Klymit comfy as a seat cushion and will it hold up?
