Anecdotal evidence but a friend is on his third S2S pad in a year. Amazing global warranty (replacements fedex’d to Guatemala and Colombia) but leaks formed around the circular baffles/seams and were impossible to repair. On the 2nd pad this happened within a month.
I also have a theory that made in Ireland Thermarest Neo Airs aren’t made as well as the MUSA versions but maybe we’ve just had bad luck…
My experience with BA customer service (regarding our tent) hasn’t been great, they need to inspect the item at their warranty centre before repairing or replacing.
I’d go for a Nemo, Thermarest or S2S, very prompt international warranty replacements sent out with minimal hassle.
Also as a side sleeper (figure-4) I am going to get rid of my neo air and get something else, a bit wider and rectangle, to try actually sleep. I'm happy to carry 150g more or so if I sleep well!!
I am thinking the new big agnes zoom ul unless anyone else has a suggestion?

This sea2summit seems another option in either long or regular wide - as I need 60cm width. But a lot hevier!
