I bought the Tensor Insulated last year (long wide). I used it on a few trips. The first couple of times I used it, it hurt my back, but I think I was over inflating it. I got used to it anyway. On my first night of a thru hike attempt, I accidentally put a hole in it. I will say, even with a deflated Tensor Insulated pad, I was able to sleep in sub freezing temps, though not as comfortably as when it had air. I submitted a warranty claim to Nemo when I got home (I explained on the form that it was my own fault). I was just hoping they might help repair it because after multiple repair attempts, it was still losing air. Nemo had me ship it to them. They replaced it with a brand new Tensor All Season. The All Season is a definite upgrade. It's lighter and has higher R value. I've used it on 2 nights so far and it did great. Thanks Nemo. Good review BTW. :)

I bought an insulated wide Tensor last year and love it. My buddy had another brand and he was sleeping on a bag of potato chips all night. I even heard it and I was in my tent 30 feet away.

So useful. Thanks

By far, this is the most concise review of the new Tensor variants that I've seen. Most reviews are just one pad, or they are a comparison to last year's Tensor insulated.

I have the BA Zoom UL, I just love it and sleep like a baby on it. Took it out a few days ago in upstate Pennsylvania in 32f and shivered all night. I have watched a lot of your videos about sleeping pads, so I knew its limitations at that temp. I rewatched this video today and decided to buy the Tensor All Season along with a Filo. Thank you for the in-depth review and explanation of the differences between the All Season and Extreme Conditions pads. 👍👍👍

I purchased the Extreme Conditions Tensor last week after watching Eric Hansen and have used it twice here in the White Mts.of New Hampshire. I already owned the Tensor Trail but wasn't always that comfortable on it. The Extreme just feels better and the weight is not an issue as my treks are usually not that long. You make great points about all three and folks should find your presentation very helpful in deciding which is best for their use.

I bought the all season a few weeks ago and i camped at -7,-10 and i was toasty warm. I added a foam pad underneath the second night but it was the same. Also i am a bit heavyweight (100kgs) and i sleep in numerous positions and i was comfy in every single one of them. Hands down i could recommend this pad to anyone that it’s not going to extreme expeditions.

Great info, I have two already. Just ordered the all season pad on the regular wide.

I’ve used the yellow one for a year now and I like it.😊

Nemo really took over the scene in a matter of 3 years I feel like it.

Best outdoor brand period.

Nice. I guess the All Season is comparable to the Insulated Wide I've been using. The sleeping pad was probably the one thing I wished I saved up for instead of grabbing a budget pad first. Probably my favorite feature of the Tensor is how fast they deflate. Makes packing up so much less frustrating.

I really love the differential dernier construction and curious to see how that performs in thorny places like the Arizona trail. Thanks for the comparison. I'll check out Justin's

Great Video! 🫶

Excellent/Informative comparison. My sleeping pad is the MSR XTherm, tapered, narrow 20" width that comes with an R6.9 value & a 70D ground side material. Works for MEeee. Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada.

It is really interesting that the R value of the new All-Season is the same as if I stacked my previous model Tensor Insulated (3.5) with my Thermarest Z-Lite Sol (2). really tempting stuff.

awesome vid

Since it's the multiple layers of mylar that seem to make the difference, I wonder if putting a cheap space blanket under the pad would get you another point or two of R-value? That would be an interesting test and maybe a way to extend the usefulness of a pad into shoulder season (or an even colder season.)

Excellent comparison! Now their lineup makes sense. I probably went overkill when I grabbed an Extreme when they came out. But that was before the all season was released and the Insulated was a touch cold for me in the 20s. Oh well. The Trail is a bit of an oddball. I get they need something to compete with the xLite, but the R value is closer to the uberlite. At least it’s cheaper and more comfortable.
