This is a lightweight and down-filled pillow
for your hiking adventures.
It is a touch of luxury for your campsite.
I'm gonna tell you all about it.
Ben from Snowys here guys
and I've got with me
the Sea to Summit Aeros Down-filled Pillow.
Now they come in three sizes,
the regular measures 8 by 6.5cm
when it's packed up and weighs in at 70g.
Then there's a large,
right through to the deluxe
that I've got in my hand here,
which measures 40 cm by 8 cm and weighs in at 190g.
Now these come in their own nice,
lightweight little stuff sack,
it's got a little carry handle here, if you like.
There's just a cord on the top, to secure it inside.
The benefit of the down filler in the top
of these pillows is that it's gonna keep you warmer,
obviously it has down underneath it so
it's trapping the warmth,
making it much warmer to sleep on.
Now to inflate the pillow,
we go to the back of it
and there's a multifunction valve here,
now there's two flaps on this valve,
this is an inflate valve which has got
a little one-way valve inside there,
the little blue section.
And then the deflate valve which opens
it right up for deflation.
To inflate it, we just need to pop the top one
open and blow some air into the top, here.
Now I've blown that up nice and tight now,
because I can actually fine tune this afterwards,
it's probably tighter than I would like.
Now this valve here does one of two things,
there's a little blue valve inside there,
stops air from coming out when
I'm not blowing into the valve,
I could seal that up and sleep on it now,
but I actually want it a little bit
softer than what it is now,
so I can just push lightly on this blue valve inside,
let a little bit of air out,
softens the pillow a little so it's comfortable
and then I can seal it up and we're good to go.
Now it's probably a good time too,
to talk about the bladder inside,
you might be concerned about the moisture
from your breath getting inside the pillow,
should always start with the valve
undone to let moisture escape
but the bladder inside is an
anti-hydrolysis TPU bladder,
it's got an anti-hydrolysis fuel inside
which is moisture resistant.
So it's designed to not be damaged or break down
with a bit of moisture inside the pillow.
So as long as you store it with the valve open,
you'll be right.
Let's have a look at the materials
that the pillow is made of.
On top here, the top surface is a really
lightweight 10 denier nylon
and it's got this, kind of,
differential, baffled cut to allow the down,
the duck down, underneath here,
to loft up, providing lots of warmth.
Now that's just on the top surface of the pillow,
it's not actually full of this down,
it's just around the top and the side here.
Around the sides here is a 20 denier nylon,
and then on the bottom is a flocked surface
that is compatible with Sea to Summit's
pillow lock system, which is something
they've got integrated into their sleeping mats.
To stop your pillow from sliding around at night.
Let's talk about dimensions of these pillows,
as I mentioned, this is the deluxe size,
in my hands here at the moment,
and they're all 10 cm thick,
all three sizes are the same thickness.
The regular measures 34 cm by 24 cm,
the large comes in at 42 cm length by 28 cm in width,
and this guy that I'm holding here,
the deluxe, is 59 cm by 38 cm.
Also worth mentioning too,
that they come in both grey and a lime-green colour,
we don't have the lime-green to show you here today,
but that might brighten up your campsite a bit.
I'll show you how to pack these away,
'cause it's really easy with our
valve on the back here now.
Now instead of pulling off the top inflate valve here,
which isn't going to do anything to deflate it,
'cause of that little one-way valve inside there,
we actually need to remove the bottom valve, here,
which is gonna release all the air out of the pillow
and allow us to roll it up.
So pull that out and the pillow just collapses down.
So let's roll this into roughly thirds,
start rolling towards the ends,
this is much easier if you do it on the ground,
but it does fit back in the bag pretty easily,
just doing it in an awkward manner like I've just done.
That is the Sea to Summit Aeros Down-filled Pillow.
These are a touch of luxury for any hiker
or adventurer, I reckon I'd buy one,
it's gonna keep you warmer,
it's nice and soft to sleep on,
