Deepsleep Solo Mat for Toyota RAV4

the adventure begins

I purchased this sleeping mat for my Kia Seltos (fits well on my passenger side with my front seat tilted slightly forward). I took it to a National Park as soon as it was delivered. 10/10 would recommend, if you are on the fence you should treat yourself.

Did the trick in my rav4. One of the biggest issues I have with this latest generation of rav4 is that the back seats don’t fold nearly as flat as they did. This made camping in my car uncomfortable. I was close to building one of those bulky camping boxes when I saw a youtube video of someone who had my generation rav and the solo mat with the leveling mat. Looked like it worked well so I pulled the trigger. Well worth the $ to have a smaller footprint solution. Worked great! Also, customer service from this company is amazing. That’s a rare thing these days. Just buy it!

The Mat is great, the bag is not.

The mat works great and is comfortable. The leveling mat is a great addition, but the bags for both are bad. This review would be 5 stars if the bags were at least somewhat functional. Both bags ripped the first time that I used them. They are made for fitting the mats in them when they are 100% decompressed from the factory, but they never get that flat again. Since the bags are tight when you put the mat back in it can pull open the valve (And it will) which partially reinflates the mat inside the bag and makes it almost impossible to get out. Covers and bags that hold gear like this NEED to be designed with the understanding that factory size is not field size. I now have two badly ripped bags that are basically useless. My plan is to try to find a duffle bag or something that can hold my mats to keep them protected when I’m traveling. For reference I’m not some ogre who rips up gear and has never packed something back into the bag that it came in. I have lot of experience with camping gear and expanding air and foam mattresses. This is just a bad bag design as it doesn’t leave any room for expansion and it catches the valves due to being too tight and opens them locking the mat inside.
