Anybody using one of these yet? My old ProLite is beyond patch-able and it's time for a replacement. I like what I read and hear so far, but I'm looking for local user opinions as well. The dang thing is spendy enough but the weight/size/insulating stats are compelling. Thanks and take care.

It is one of my favorite pieces of equipment. Light and compact. I was surprised that it did not come with a stuff sack. I had an extra stuff sack otherwise I would have had to buy one. It seems pretty rugged. I've used it half a dozen times. I don't blow it up too full and I don't abuse it. I use it in my Therm-a-rest camp chair and it works fine. I really haven't tested the thermal barrier. I have used it down into the mid-20's and I was toasty in my WM Ultralite 20° bag. I did not feel any cold radiating from the ground.
