Thermarest Prolite with a tragic delamination - any ideas?

[adredwood]

Hi there - My baby, a Thermarest Prolite, received a heavy does of one of my heavier friends and now contains an interior air-bubble you could hide a small child in. I believe the word for this is delamination. After some reasonably exhaustive searching I can't find any receipt for it, but i believe they have a lifetime warranty, no? Would this sort of thing be covered?

If not, I'd rather repair than buy a new one (on principle and for the cost), so does anyone know how I might go about doing this?

Thanks for any help,

Andy

Had a delamination on a Thermarest years ago when we were in the Alps, probably due to the heat (don't leave them inflated in a hot tent!). Luckily we managed to find a shop that took it back under the lifetime warrenty and gave us a new one.

I'd get in touch with Cascade Designs and see what they say.

You shouldn't need a receipt. Just get in touch with the manufacturer and add puppy eyes.

Thanks, I just emailed them to see what the situation is, I'll drop something in here when it gets resolved one way or another.
