The NeoAir has gone through 5 years of research and development. The Therm-a-Rest team is under real pressure to invent something new and great. Their patents on the self-inflating mattress have expired, leading to market share erosion. We’ll see how this new pad performs. But could you tell me more about those “repeated de-lamination problems”? Cascade Designs generally test their new gear as much as they can before it hits the market.

I once asked TNF about their AirCore insulated jacket technology and they said air chambers under around 15mm thick didn't suffer convective heat transfer. I don't mind the stiffness of air beds & swore never to buy another ThermaRest foam core air mattress after repeated de-lamination problems. Sounds very interesting to me!
