Price – as you’d expect the price of a product can be an instantly recognisable factor on what sort of quality you can expect.

We’ll dive into the price of Berghaus Peak Compact Self Inflating Mat in more detail in a moment.The material the product is made from is often a sign of the quality for Sleeping Mats. Take a look at the product details over at Go Outdoors to get a feel for this. The mat itself has, however, only had around a fortnight’s use and wasn’t abused, jumped-on or overloaded. The valve system is different - you push to open, push again to close - takes a little getting used to, but it works; There is a fairly slight possibility you could press the valve in your sleep….

There are however some methods that you can use to determine a product’s quality without needing to physically have it. I would observe that absolutely any item may fail for one reason or another, and that this one problem does not necessarily condemn the product outright, but that we have NEVER had a Thermarest puncture or tear (in 30 years of wild camping), although we have had two valve failures in mats much more than 10 years old.

When buying Sleeping Mats, the quality of the product is going to be one of the factors that you really scrutinise before you commit to buying. Another factor that can be a great indication of product quality is the brand. Brands like Berghaus are of course extremely well known, especially for Sleeping Mats. however, a word of warning........most manufacturers suggest a few puffs of air to firm-up the mattress but remember that the moisture in your breath will condensate when the air temperature drops, and then you'll end-up with water inside your mat which can cause the fabric to rot - so, avoid the temptation if you can, and use a small airbed pump (or bicycle pump with adaptor) instead and prolong the life of your mat, whilst remembering that keeping it rolled-up in the bottom of your camping bag will damage the foam, so leave it unfurled below your bed (or in the loft/garage/understair cupboard) if you can, with the valve in the open position......
