Sleeping Pad Help

[CEG017]

Hey Guys,

I was wondering if any of you have experience with the following pads:

Exped Ultra 5R - I have only seen a few posts on this one. Have seen some pretty good deals for this and I am on a budget.
Thermarest Xlite NXT - Seen a lot of good reviews on this one but more expensive than the BA and Exped
BA Rapide SL - Also have not seen many reviews on this one but I have found some good deals.

Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks,

I have the Big Agnes AXL air. It has puncturing issues and I think they put out the rapide to replace it. I love it though. I’m a big fan af the BA pads. I have a Q core for shorter warmer trips. If the Rapide is like the AXL, I’ve been comfortable in 0 degree with a 0 degree bag. Wish I would have got the wide version though.
