Broadstone Foam Sleeping Pad, 24 x 70-in

We just bought these for a short trip to another city where we have our air mattresses stored, but we haven't left the house yet, and already this foam pad is getting damaged. I bought this thin lightweight one, which is less than half the thickness of the Roots foam one, for my 6 yr old son, being as he is very lightweight. But just pulling at the included elastics that keep it rolled, he has managed to gouge out parts of the foam with his fingernails. Very fragile. And as another has noted, the foam compresses very easily, and even just the elastics that hold it rolled leave compression marks in it. The cheap blue or purple foam pads I got in the 1980s are in better shape still than this one after 4 hours. He does seem to be sleeping ok on the livingroom floor, so I suppose it will do its job for the short while we really need it, but it is a pretty disposable product. Try the Roots one, dark grey, that is much thicker, and the foam is more solid.
