The Best Camp Pillows: 4 Compared (and One to Skip) · Outdoors & Fitness
NEMO Equipment Fillo Backpacking & Camping Pillow
Heaviest of the three inflatables at 265 grams, with less loft than a pillow weighing well under half as much.
Why we skip it: 265 grams packed for 4 inches of loft, where the Sea to Summit gives the same 4 inches for 104 grams.

NEMO Equipment Chipper Reclaimed Closed-Cell Foam Seat

The Best Tent Stakes: 4 Compared (and One to Skip) · Outdoors & Fitness
NEMO Equipment Airpin Ultralight Stakes
The smartest head in the category attached to the least holding surface, at roughly five grams a stake.
Why we skip it: A tapered pin presents the least surface to the ground of any shape here, which is where holding power comes from.
