Hi Everyone.

I'm a restless side-sleeper who has been in the market for a pillow for quite some time since none have seemed both comfortable and light. I recently learned of the Sea to Summit Aeros Pillow. There is a "Premium" version and an "Ultralight" version. Seems these pillows are designed to compete with Exped's pillows.

While I recognize that this is a subjective issue, can anyone comment on how comfortable the premium is compared to the Ultralight?

Thank you!

I haven't seen the StS premium, but I can comment on the StS Aeros UL vs Exped UL (Med).
The StS is much thicker, about 1.5" more height. As a side sleeper who needs a lot of pillow height to be comfortable, this is much better for me. The StS also has a thin coating that is more agreeable next to the skin, whereas the Exped is just a plastic feel. However, a Buff fits nicely around either of them as a pillowcase.

On my scale, StS Aeros UL = 2.0oz
Exped UL (Med) = 1.6oz
