Surprisingly comfortable if you put a shirt over it.

The cross pattern is much better then the other hiking pillows I have. Your head doesn't "float" like it does on the other basic style blow up pillows.

If you need to go light weight you should definitely consider this pillow. I do multi day sporting events where you carry your own kit hence weight is always top of mind. I usually go without a pillow but eventually decided that a few more grams is a good price to pay if the result is a good nights sleep. So after some digging around I settled in this one. First off the pillow when packed is super small. Less than the size of an iPhone. Blowing it up is easy though you do need to massage it a little to help the air flow between the chambers. What I really love though is that the design means that your head keeps the pillow in position. Result is a far better than expected nights sleep.

Love this pillow. Easy to adjust how hard you inflate it to get exactly the feel you want. Doesn't slide around too much, doesn't feel sticky or plasticky.

クライミットは裏切らなねー。軽量コンパクトUL装備に持ってこい‼︎使い心地は、溝で頭がいい感じでホールドされるので違和感なくなられる。寝返り打っても違和感なく使えています。これは値段以上の商品ですね。

I love this pillow! It is super light and really comfortable. I am a side sleeper and find the X design cradles my head and ,because of the depression in the centre, takes the pressure off my ear. I have been using it as my regular pillow on my bed for a week now and have not found anything that I don’t like about it. Once I found the right amount of pressure that was comfortable for me, it stayed there. I have not had to add any air yet.

I took this on my camping vacation to Africa and it was just what I needed. Its a bit slippery but I fixed this by sticking it in a t-shirt as a pillow case. Deflates super small to about the size of a key chain which is perfect for backpacking. I only wish I had this sooner for previous backpacking trips that I've gone on. A must have for backpackers and light campers.

I've taken this pillow on two long overseas flights and to numerous beaches so far. Super easy to tote anywhere. Packs down to a compact size and weighs almost nothing. A bonus: it inflates and deflates fast. This is the best travel/beach pillow I've come across. The x-design works well, allowing it to be tucked into corners (as on an airplane) and folded into numerous shapes with varying degrees of inflation. I can't vouch for it as a camping pillow and I haven't owned it long enough to comment on durability but it's great for resting your head on for a few hours. This one is definitely a keeper for me.

Not very comfortable. Its saving grace is the small footprint it takes up when compressed and the ease and quickness of inflation / deflation. Currently waiting to try out a loft type camping pillow instead.

Extremely small package is great for bringing back country hiking! I find it comfortable but if you are picky about your pillows you may not like the "X" design. It easily slips into the same sack that my sleeping pad goes into.

The Klymit Pillow X Inflatable is an excellent camp pillow and easily one of the two best on the market. At $20 it is half the price of its only serious competitor: the also great Sea to Summit Aeros and Aeros Ultralight pillows. Compared with the Aeros, I think it offers comparable performance (arguably even slightly better thanks to the great "X" design) and actually weighs less at only 1.9 oz!The pillow inflates very easily with 2-3 breaths and allows for quite a lot of variation in its firmness. Unlike any other travel inflatable pillow, this pillow can be used while fully inflated thanks to the "X" design, which allows it to cradle the head securely. Every other inflatable pillow I've tried has to have at least a little air let out to prevent a center bulge that tends to roll your head to one side or the other, but in this case, the "X" shape really does make an effective cradle.Of course, at full inflation, it's a tad too stiff for my tastes. I let out about 10-15% of the air for a softer feel, while still retaining approximately 3" of loft/height to support my neck. I use a ThermaRest RidgeRest Solar sleep mat, which is only about 0.7" thick and has plenty of room to put this pillow on top of the pad, where it stays put nicely and gives plenty of support. If you're using a much thicker pad that does not have enough length to spare for this pillow, you might find (as you would with most travel pillows) that you'll need to prop up the pillow with other gear to give it adequate height for your comfort and good neck support. Also, if you're using a nylon-coated pad, you might find that this pillow (which is also nylon coated, not fleece or cloth faced) may slip around on you. Those haven't been problems in my case, but I thought I should mention them.When you want to deflate the pillow, just pull outward gently on the inflation stem and gently roll and squeeze the fabric to work the air toward the valve. It deflates fairly quickly, but the baffles sewn inside to create the "X" pattern can trap a bit of air until you get the hang of how exactly to work the air out as you roll it. Once you do get the hang of it, it is very quick and easy to evacuate all of the air and fold it up into a very compact little bundle (about the size of a deck of playing cards, and half as thick, except for the hard valve).It's hard to see how Klymit can improve on this design. The "X" shape provides an excellent, stable cradle-like feel for your head if you're a back sleeper like me. And if you like to sleep on your side, the "X" also prevents your ear from getting crushed against your head and allows more air to circulate than is typical for a nylon inflatable travel pillow, reducing some of that sweaty effect on warm evenings also. Of course, side sleepers will probably need to prop the pillow up to get added height for neck support. At full inflation, this pillow has about 4" of loft/height, but as I said earlier, it's also a tad stiff and for most people, it realistically offers 2.5 to 3" of loft/height when inflated to a comfortably soft/pliable state.The only potential quibble I can think of is that this pillow does not have a soft fabric (fleece, tricot, cloth, etc.) coating on one side to provide a little cushy softness; however, in practice, it isn't actually a problem. I find that folding a t-shirt in half and laying it on top of the pillow accomplishes the same goal.While inflatable travel/camp pillows will never be as comfortable as a fine pillow you use at home, the Klymit Pillow X is about as good as it gets for ultralight, packable comfort. I find it considerably better than just stacking clothes on top of hard gear items, and I especially appreciate the "X" cradle design. Well worth the weight and price in my opinion. Highly recommended!
