G'day Wayne,

The Kozi would fit well on the Helinox Stretcher, there would be a little overhang but that shouldn't cause any issues and usually good to have a mat a little bigger anyway. 

G'day Jamie,

There isnt a pump included, but you can use any type of mattress pump you like.
The valve is quite large, so there isn't one that will perfectly click into it, but holding the pump up to the valve will do the trick.
One of the Coleman Quickpumps would be a great option - just be mindful not too over inflate the mat.

G'day Koda,

Lots of folks these days will put a self inflating mat in their swag, as they can generally get a lot more comfort, and roll their swags a little smaller. The only way you'll be able to roll this up is when the mat is deflated, so if you're looking for an easy option without the inflation/deflation this might not be the best option for you. You'd probably be best off with a Darche Swag mattress if you're not too keen on the extra faff!

G'day Natasha,

Generally, side sleepers will need abit of extra firmness generally.  This sleeping mat, aswell as other self inflating versions, can have extra air added into them to increase firmness.  You can ultimately tailor the firmness of the mat this way which should give you the perfect balance for side sleeping.
Obviously, there is also the element of individual people and overall size.  If you tend on the larger or heavier side, it may be worth looking at a thick 15cm mattress.

G'day Daniel,

Any self-inflating mat is more than fine to be used on the ground.  Stretchers are great for mobility issues & some people feel they add a bit of extra luxury to camping, but they also tend to be bulky and heavy, so they're definitely not a requirement.  Even though Darche haven't done any R-Value testing on these mats, we do think they would be similar to some close alternatives, which suggest these mats do provide good insulation for winter camping.
You can always see how you go & pick up a stretcher down the line but if you are thinking you'd like to use a double stretcher consider getting two singles that you can couple together, as a queen/double mattress on a queen/double stretcher isn't always a great option.

G'day Lin,

Whilst the Kozi Queen is a much wider mat, it's still comparable to a residential double bed in size.
In terms of comfort it's hard to give an exact comparison as it depends on the individual, but I personally find the Kozi Mattress to have a harder foam, and feel more similar to the older style PVC covered 4WD mats.
Hope that helps abit!

G'day Steve,

Yep, the Kozi mattresses are fully bonded, both top and bottom.
Hope that helps!

G'day Kevin,

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you on this one, we've chased up Darche for this info.
Unfortunately, they've opted not to do ASTM testing on their mats, so they do not come with any R-Value or alternative insulation rating.
