Not camping but am going on a bus tour &amp; back problems would a 2 in. thick queen bed pad compress down in one of these?

I would have to be a soft/thin pad and it still might not fit. I just got a 33x80 sleeping bag in there.

No, a queen would probably not fit, but a full maybe. You probably could get away with twin pads. The middle bar, as others have noted, is somewhat annoying. We just ordered this and set it up. However, we plan to return it for the original double-cot (not the compact). The ventilation and design seem a little better. The other model also turns into a chair, whereas this one doesn't.

Definitely okay for a full (I has a queen). No as slippery as a sleeping bag. Dog hairs were no problem but my dog made it extra static-y when he slept on it. If you live somewhere dry, be aware.

I actually sent mine back because it was just too big. I think it would compress down pretty thin though. It's not too rigid!

I have a queen size mattress with thick corners. I would think it would be too big for you.

I would say no for two. There is no room to lay down and stretch out. This has height but not length. Especially for an airline trip.

As I recall (i returned it didn't like it at all) it fills out about 2" thick. Wasn't at all comfortable compared to the self - inflating therapist back pad I got instead which I've traveled with extensively since it's purchase 2 years ago...including on a 19 hour flight to S. Africa.

Sandy, The Extra Plush and Extra Thick Pad is approximately 2.5 inches thick and is indeed a mattress topper. When laying on it, it will compress, but will still offer a great deal of comfort and support. Please let us know if you have any additional questions, we'd love to help! Thank you! -BrettES Customer Service

Not very thick. If the person who uses these is ambulatory, may I suggest TENA Ultimate Pad. If the person is bedridden, depends are just as thick and a great deal less expensive. Good luck

I dont think it can be compressed again with household item. So yes, if you are on move, you probably need consider this as conventional mattress.

I'm not sure this will compress the direction you want. These are end cap compressions, not side compression. But for the diameter of most thermarests, I would think small would work. I use these for either my clothes for backpacking or my summer weight sleeping bag. I can compress the small size with my sleeping bag to a little more than softball size.

This mattress pad is about a 1/4 of an inch thick. I don't think that it will soften the effects of a firm bed, but the pad is very nice.

No. my mattress is not a really thick one and the mattress pad still works very well.

I have a queen with a 3" matress topper and its a tight squeeze but it does fit and its so worth it once you get it on . I cussed a little during the process, but afterwords "oooh yeahhh"

I have a couple egg crate pads under the new memory pad so I don't know how accurate I can be. Anything is better than the mattresses the use in RVs... I have a 4 inch piece of memory foam on backroom bed now that's nice but I can remember where I got it....and it would have to be cut to fit you queen short..... Thicker the better....

I have a very thick mattress pad AND a good size topper on my queen bed and they fit great. Not too tight at all.

I purchased this matress for use in my RV. I had previously purchased a 3" foam mattress for the RV and I felt like I was bottoming out so a thicker one was definitely the answer. I have a tempurpedic foam mattress in my bedroom. I would say that this matress is more firm then the tempurpedic but not enough that it effects my sleep.
