gauvins

I've considered them but ended up getting the crazy creek instead. Less expensive, and can double up as a sleeping pad extension (I sleep on torso-length pad.) Can also be used inside a tent (not sure that it is useful - I tend to lie down).

I' ve gone thru two Monarch - delicate creatures - wanted a smaller pack size than the Decathlon I've purchased on tour to replace the Monarch, and can't fathom spending a medium fortune on the helinox zero. My reservation WRT the thermarest is that you have to inflate/deflate your pad. Takes a while whereas the CC can be unfolded and at the ready in seconds.
