Memory foam and cold camping?

[TimberHunter]

Ordered this roll up mattress for truck camping. Will likely be in the 20*s at night when camping. Has anyone had issues with memory foam being stiff in the cold?

I've used memory foam pillows and they were hard as a rock until my head warmed them up, but if the temps got low enough they never really softened. I'd have to think there'd be more heat from your body so should work better than the pillows.

I have the same one, have never had an issue with it, and I've used it in single digit temps.

However, that pad is quite large when rolled up. I have found that the Klymaloft air/foam hybrid pads are almost as comfortable. When I am limited for space in my pickup, I bring the Klymaloft instead.

Its going to feel like a rock at first but as it warms up you should be good. But I wouldn’t recommend any memory foam product for camping. The old egg crate mattress pads work well for me.

i find the memory foam comfortable in warm weather but cold as heck in cold weather----to the point i get severe leg cramps.

now i put a Therma rest on top for insulation from the memory foam.
