Top Brand: Therm-a-Rest
From the manufacturer
Therm-a-Rest
Our founders' mission was simple: create a better way to sleep outside; because when you rest better, you play better. Their ingenuity and vision back in 1972 led to the creation of the first self-inflating sleeping pad.
Today, we’re still working towards the same mission to craft the best sleeping pads and bags on the market. We’re not just giving explorers a better way to camp, we’re giving them better adventures tomorrow.
Our popular Compressible Pillow is perfect for everyone from international travelers to car campers. The pillow foam is sourced from upcycled foam from our pad manufacturing and the cover is made from ultra-soft polyester made from mostly recycled materials. Its soft foam filling packs small and expands big, with the XL size measuring a generous 16.5 x 27 in. (42 x 67 cm) for home-like comfort wherever you are.

When the item arrived I was really pleased to see the fabric. It's poly, but not that slick, noisy junk that SO MANY of these pillows are covered with, it was more like a faux suede, soft, supple, and comfy on my cheek. The pillow doesn't pack down tiny, like some of the inflatables, but it isn't heavy either. When I first pulled it out, it was lumpy and rather under-filled... but after sitting for 15-20, it filled up. Therm-a-rest right? The pillow felt good enough for an overnight, so I decided to keep it and take it on an upcoming 3 night motorcycle camping trip.
Well, to make a long story short, I've never slept so well. I am a bit of a sleep gear snob, I like fine sheets, quality blankets, and good pillows... this pillow is a no compromises, home-like sleeping experience. I guess pillows are subjective, but to me, this is hands-down the best camping pillow that I have ever used. How much do I like it? Well, if it is any clue, I purchased one for my wife, each of my kids, and I give them out as gifts. We never go on a road trip without them anymore. When I car camp, and can take whatever I want, I take these pillows. Combined with my Byer of Maine cot, my memory foam sleeping pad, and my Slumberjack "Country Squire" bag, I get a night's rest that's comparable to just about any road-sleep I could buy in a hotel or resort.
Yes, I know backpacking gear has its place, and this may not be the perfect pillow for that (though I will never be without one on the trail), it's kind of bulky, even packed down (think about the size of a oil-can of Foster's lager) and it's probably not the lightest for weight-weenies, though it is not heavy, but it's the best "camp-pillow" you can get. Period. Also, it's totally machine washable and handles it just fine (ours have probably been washed 100 times), and loses no comfort over time (we've had them for several years now).
Try one out, they're fairly cheap, and I promise you will not be disappointed.
This pillow was awesome. It felt great, slept great, compressed into more than half it's size without too much effort, and if you're car camping or stay over at other peoples' places often this pillow is a great thing to roll up into your car and unpack when needed. Just give it a few for the loft to return to it. I am a side sleeper, and I loved it.
I compared this on a camping trip to Exped's compact pillow. They are about as opposite as you can get... The thermarest stayed cool throughout the night while exped being basically a fancy balloon heated up and made my cheek sweaty (nothing a pillow case couldn't fix for comfort), the exped is incredibly light weight and packs down into something the size of my palm while the thermarest is giant even compressed. The mediums are more popular, and there is a size difference, but honestly not that much of one. I'd probably stick with the large if space wasn't a factor at all. The thermarest was more suitable for side sleeping, but the exped did better on airplane rides where one is sitting upright.
In comparison to the medium pillow that I tried out at REI, the large has a bit more width and oomph to it, and I like truly being able to switch side to side without having to adjust my pillow to follow my head. To me, if weight/size isn't an issue at all (and really, it probably isn't if you're using this thing) then go ahead and go with the large. The small pillows are actually great for kids and slumber parties, but I'm a small adult and I still think the large offered the right amount of luxury and comfort to packability. To me, the medium and large aren't THAT huge of a difference compressed down, but the large felt more like at home than the medium when expanded.
The thing is, if you're camping for size of items this is NOT your thing. I think if you want a good blend of comfort and compression, go with a Nemo Fillo .. more pricey than the thermarest, but there's a layer of memory foam and comfortable fabric with an inflatable element underneath to adjust the softness or firmness. If you're looking for size and compact ultralight, exped was absolutely amazing and I'll write a review of it as well.
But if you want comfort in your camping/glamping, a pillow to offer guests that will stow away after, a minimalist that wants their bedding at home to double up on functionality by being more portable, or car camping... this guy is really incredible and will offer a great night's sleep no matter where you are.

- Support for a side sleeper
- Soft and fluffy comfort to rest your head on
- Packable for travel (mainly car camping)
The Therm-a-Rest is a great pillow for a side sleeper and super comfortable. You do need to allow it time (4 hours or more) to expand to its maximum loft if it was left in its packed form for a long time. At first the lumpy foam material may feel weird on touch but once you rest on it you will only experience great comfort and you get reminded of how soft and fluffy it is. The packed size is about 1/4 of the fully expanded size so it is great for car camping but It may not be the best backpacking pillow when compared to a Nemo Fillo Luxury Camping pillow but the Nemo pillow cannot achieve the loft required for a side sleeper and it is still an inflatable pillow (with a memory foam topper) while the Therm-a-Rest feels just like your regular house pillow. Just check out the amazing loft you get from the Therm-a-Rest pillow. My family loved it so much, I end up buying another one.

Habe es vor einigen Jahren bereits gekauft und hatte es öfter auf diversen Reisen dabei (Wandern, Camping, Festivals). Es lässt sich sehr gut klein rollen und ist schnell wieder einsatzbereit. Bis heute sieht es noch super aus, trotz einiger Einsätze.
Ich weiß nicht mehr genau welche größe ich gekauft habe (ich meine es war L), würde beim nächsten mal aber eher zu einer größe kleiner tendieren, einfach damit das Kissen im Gepäck weniger Platz einnimmt (und unterwegs reicht mir einfach ein kleines Kissen). Beim schlafen gehen die Meinungen auseinander aber für mich war dies bisher das beste Reisekissen welches ich hatte.
