Our Verdict
Nemo's Tenso sleeping pads have been revamped, and the lightest model in the new range is the Tensor Trail. The Tensor Trail is a great option for spring, summer, and early Autumncamping because it has a R-value of 2.8, which provides optimal comfort during warmer temperatures. A layer of "Thermal Mirror Metallised Film" suspended throughout the mat insulates it. This layer reflects body heat back to the sleeper, and since it's suspended rather than welded, it decreases rustling or crunching noises, making the mat silent. The 3 ½ inches (8.9cm) thick, plush pad has a dimpled sleep surface and Nemo's 'Spaceframe' baffle construction, which lessens bounce and creates a stable surface that equally distributes weight, making it suitable for side sleepers.
The pad is made from high-quality recycled ripstop nylon with a 20D fabric on top and a more durable 40D fabric on the bottom. The mat includes Nemo’s Vortex Pump Sack, one of the most efficient pump sacks. It fits snugly on the "lay low" valve for easy inflation and deflation. The Vortex Pump Sack can fully inflate the pad in less than six blasts.
