I am a sleeping bag user and I found the stickiness to be an advantage. I never had issues with the pad sliding out from under me.

In comparison to other 2.5 inch air mattresses, I found this one to feel thinner than other's and required extra inflation to keep my hip off the ground. It still feels comfortable though because the material itself stretches a little.

I also found the length of 60 inches to be adequate for even though I am almost 6' 1". Occasionally I would find my shoulder landing on the valve but usually I could avoid this.
