Comfortable but noisy.

My experience with the Megapillow is consistent with the various online/Youtube videos I have seen which rate it as a comfortable option for backpacking, albeit being a heavy option, and it is heavy. The specifications incorrectly state that it weighs 170 grams, it came in at 200 grams on my scales, so that is something you need to consider. The cover is plush and feels good against the skin. A good option for cold nights. I won’t be using it in summer as it is a bit too warm. I really like its dimensions, almost going the full width of my wide-sized sleeping pad. The ability to attach straps/cordage to the loops to keep it in place is also a bonus. I suppose the biggest negative for me is that it is extremely noisy. If you don’t move much it may be ok for you. I’m a side sleeper and tend to move about a fair bit making the pillow sound like someone constantly scrunching cellophane.

Superbly comfortable

While it isn't truly UL, it's truly wonderful for sleep. I got onto this because of Justin Outdoors. He was carrying a very UL load out, but wasn't prepared to to skimp on sleep comfort. I'm leaning into this philosophy, because it's awesome.
