I'm looking to buy one pad that I can use for 3+ seasons. Will the pad be too warm (due to the insulation) for summer use? — 2 Answers

This pad does have a higher R value, so it will definitely work as a 3 season pad. It could be a little warm in the summer, but you can compensate by using a lighter sleeping bag or sheet depending on the temperatures.

i own the downmat-9 and would not give up the comfort of the thick pads.
yes the downmats will be warm in summer weather but hyou can compensate with a lighter bag or even a travel-sheet.
