Featuring two independent layers of air cells, the Sea To Summit Comfort Plus Insulated Sleeping Mats offer a level of comfort and redundancy not seen in any other lightweight mattress for trekking and hiking.
Dot welding construction creates offset Air Sprung Cells™ that offer similar characteristics to a pocket spring mattress. Thermolite® insulation and a layer of heat reflective silver coated Exkin® Platinum fabric on the top delivers unprecedented warmth for weight characteristics.
Dual-layer construction crafts a mat that can be finely tuned to suit terrain or comfort levels with independently inflated top and bottom levels that also builds in a level of redundancy to your mat – a puncture in one layer of your Comfort Plus Mat means you still have the other layer to get you through the night.
Hi team, I currently have the STS Ultralight Insulated which I find is great for my light and fast biking trips, however I would like something more 'plush' for the better-equipped camping trips where I want to lay in. Can you have a go at quantifying the comfort difference between these two mattresses? ie: is it "worth" getting the STS Comfort Plus as my luxe option, or will I find the difference negligible? (subjective I know, good luck answering this :) For example, if I'm on my side and propped up on my elbow (watching ipad, reading book), my elbow and hip will pretty much be touching the ground with the UL Insulated (to be expected). Is the Comfort Plus considerably thicker to avoid this?
G'day Ben,
It is tricky to quantify but probably not worth it from my own perspective, completely acknowledging that others may feel differently.
Theres only about 1.5cm thickness between the two, I wouldn't be able to justify investing in a second mat for such a small amount of extra 'padding'.
If you are wanting some added luxury but still within the same style of mat, check out the Comfort Plus XT. Its slightly larger in pack size and weight, but it gives you 8cm of thickness with a bit of extra insulation.
Your almost getting the comfort specs you would expect from a self-inflating foam style mattress.
Hope that helps in some way!
A bit late to the party on this question but... I have both the ultrilight and the Comfort Plus mats. The comfort plus is a lot more plush. I pretty much always use the comfort plus.
The description says it is only 4? I also checked on STS website which says 4 as well. What happend? Does the change apply to older models as well?
Hi Chen,
Yes the R-value on some of the Seam so summit range has recently changed in line with the new ASTM testing standards. You can read more about that here.
What is the weight of the small?
G'day Bronwen,
You'll just need to select the small size in the drop-down menu. The small is 0.715kg.
I have this mat and whilst initially it was great now it deflates over night. I think the issue is around the valve.
G'day Stewart,
Sorry to hear you're having trouble with your Comfort Plus Insulated Mat. Most deflation issues with these mats will be due to a small puncture. Your best bet will be to test for a leak by inflating the mat and going over the seems and body of the mat with a small spray bottle that has a little bit of detergent in it. If you find the leak you can use the patch kit supplied to repair it. If you find the leak is occurring at the valve then snap some photos of it and jump on to our warranty claim form and the warranties team will have a look at it and advise from there.
What are the lengths
G'day Heather,
The Sea to Summit Comfort Plus Insulated sleeping mat comes in Small (168cm) Regular (184cm) and Large (201cm). It's worth noting they're all 55cm wide except the Large which is 64cm wide.
Hi Team Have just bought one of these, looks good. Is there a ‘correct’ side to put on the floor when using? Cheers
G'day Paul,
Whilst it doesn't really make any difference at all which side of the Sea to Summit Comfort Plus Insulated Sleeping Mat goes on the floor, if you've got the logo and the writing facing up, then it's technically the right way up.
Hi, I'm looking for a mat for my 10 year old daughter to take on her first Scout hike in Victoria in May. I want to get her something warm and light, but also easy to inflate on her own. Would you recommend this mat, or something else instead? Thanks so much.
G'day Kate,
The Sea to Summit Comfort Plus Insulated Sleeping Mats are pretty easy to inflate, they are made a heck of a lot easier though when using a pump like the Jet Stream Pump Sack.
Its not clear as the specs say pump sold separately but then when you select a size the info changes.
G'day Kerry,
The new model Comfort Plus Insulated Mat - Regular comes with an airstream pumpsack integrated into the stuff sack. The Small and Large models currently don't, but when we run out of stock the new models will. Hopefully this clarifies it for you. If not give our customer service team a buzz on 1300 914 007.
I'm finding it a little confusing comparing the two - is the only difference that there is slightly more insulation in this one? or are there other features that are different. Thanks
G'day Daniel,
The main difference between the Sea to Summit Comfort Plus Insulated Sleeping Mat and the Comfort Light Insulated Sleeping Mat is the amount of insulation, yes but there are a couple of other differences too. The Comfort Plus model has 2 valves, so in the very unlikely incident of a puncture, your mat will only half deflate, giving you some comfort for the night still. The Comfort Plus also has more evenly spaced 'dimples' whereas the Comfort Light model has them more spaced out in the legs and feet.
Will this fit inside my Sea to Summit Latitude sleeping bag?
G'day Paul,
Unfortunately not. The mats are designed to go on the outside of the sleeping bags.
