Most camping mattresses that you buy now are of exceptional quality. Yes you still can buy the very thin and cheap camping mattresses that do very little in terms of providing comfort and warmth, but overall, the world of camping mattresses has evolved significantly over the last few years.If you want luxury then you can have it, since camping mattressess are now a multi-million pound industry!
But there are some basic considerations to take into account before you splash out on a top of the range mattress.If there are two of you and your tent is very quaint and your mattress is larger than the standard then your quaint little tent will suddenly feel very small indeed. So make sure that any mattresses that you buy will easily fit into your tents for camping.
Mattressess that inflate are currently very popular, but you need to be able to inflate them.Comfort is essential when camping so the fact that you are effectively supported by air equals a pleasurable camping trip! For those who are a little lazier, self-inflating mattresses are also available but these tend to be a little more expensive.
A good camping mattress should protect you from the cold or dampness, so really the thicker the mattress the better. If you are laid on a thin mattress you will feel the cold much worse. You may also find that you are pretty stiff the next morning, so thickness is a prime consideration whilst taking account of the space it will take up.
Space is actually an important issue. If you are travelling by car then you don’t need to worry about weight or how much room your mattresses take up, but if you are travelling by bicycle or hiking, then do you really want to be carrying thick mattresses and a pump to inflate them? Think about the weight involved as well.
So a good mattress is dependent on a number of factors, balancing comfort, thickness, weight and how you are travelling.Be careful not to buy a super de luxe mattress that takes up the whole of your rucksack, buy the one that suits your needs.
