The Outwell Highway Pop Top Air 120 is a self-inflating mat built specifically for pop-top campervan roofs, particularly VW California and Mercedes Marco Polo models. At 195cm long and 120cm wide, it fills the roof bed space properly without gaps or overhangs that cause overnight sliding. The 7cm thickness provides genuine cushioning from the hard roof board underneath, which matters when you're sleeping on what's essentially a solid platform. The TPU construction resists delamination, a common failure point in cheaper mats where the air chambers separate from the fabric layers after repeated use.

Inflation happens mostly on its own thanks to the open-cell foam core, though you'll typically add a few breaths through the double flat high-flow valve to firm it up properly. The static side fabric holds the mat's rectangular shape during inflation, so it doesn't balloon out and become awkward to position in the confined roof space. The top and bottom use 30D recycled stretch polyester with a soft-touch finish that's comfortable against skin without needing a separate sheet, though most people still use sleeping bags. Pack size is 45cm by 13cm diameter, which fits in the storage cubbies most campervans have, rather than taking up boot space you need for other gear.

The PFAS-free construction matters if you're concerned about chemical treatments, though it does mean the fabric isn't quite as stain-resistant as older treated versions. Weight is 2.2kg, which is reasonable for a mat this size but not featherlight if you're counting every gram. The included carry bag has basic padding but isn't heavily reinforced, so you'll want to avoid dragging it across rough surfaces. The valve system works well for both inflation and deflation, though getting all the air out before rolling requires a bit of patience and body weight. At this size, it's really designed for two people or one person who likes spreading out, rather than trying to squeeze three children across it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the Outwell Highway Pop Top Air 120 fit my campervan roof?
This mat is designed specifically for VW California and Mercedes Marco Polo pop-top roof beds. The 195cm length and 120cm width match the platform dimensions in these models. The static side fabric prevents the mat from expanding beyond these dimensions during inflation, keeping it properly positioned in the confined roof space without overhanging edges that cause sliding during sleep.
How long does the Highway Pop Top Air 120 take to self-inflate?
The open-cell foam core does most of the work automatically within 3-5 minutes after opening the double flat high-flow valve. Most users add 5-10 manual breaths through the valve to achieve proper firmness for sleeping. The high-flow valve design accelerates both inflation and deflation compared to standard valves found on basic camping mats.
What does TPU construction mean for durability?
TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) construction means the air chambers are bonded to the fabric layers using a method that resists delamination. Delamination is when the air chambers separate from the fabric after repeated inflation cycles, a common failure point in cheaper mats that use basic glued construction. This construction method extends the mat's usable life significantly in the repeated inflation and deflation cycles typical of regular campervan use.
Is 7cm thickness enough cushioning for sleeping on a hard roof board?
The 7cm thickness provides adequate cushioning for most sleepers on the hard platform found in pop-top roofs. This thickness creates enough separation from the solid board underneath to prevent pressure points that cause discomfort during sleep. Side sleepers and those with existing back issues typically find this thickness sufficient, though individuals accustomed to very thick home mattresses may notice the difference initially.
How do you deflate and pack the Highway Pop Top Air 120?
Open both valve sections fully and press down on the mat with your body weight, working from the opposite end towards the valves to push air out. The process takes 2-3 minutes of active compression to remove enough air for rolling. Close the valves, and roll tightly from the valve end, securing with the straps, then place in the included carry bag. The 45cm by 13cm pack size fits in most campervan storage cubbies.
Does the mat slip around in the pop-top roof during sleep?
The 195cm by 120cm dimensions are sized to fill the roof bed platform properly without overhanging edges that create sliding. The recycled polyester fabric has enough grip against the roof board surface to stay positioned during normal sleep movement. The rectangular shape maintained by the static side fabric prevents the mat from shifting sideways as can happen with mats that balloon during inflation.
What does PFAS-free mean for this camping mat?
PFAS-free means the fabric hasn't been treated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, synthetic chemicals used historically in outdoor gear for water and stain resistance. This construction avoids these persistent chemicals that accumulate in the environment and human body. The trade-off is the fabric won't resist stains and moisture quite as effectively as older chemically-treated versions, though the polyester itself still provides basic moisture resistance.
Can two adults sleep comfortably on the 120cm width?
The 120cm width provides adequate space for two average-sized adults sleeping in close proximity, typical of campervan sleeping arrangements. Each person has roughly 60cm of width, which is tighter than a standard double bed but matches the reality of pop-top roof dimensions. Larger individuals or those who move around significantly during sleep may find the width restrictive, though this reflects the physical constraints of pop-top roof spaces rather than a mat design limitation.
What's the difference between the Highway Pop Top Air 120 and standard camping mats?
Standard camping mats are typically 50-75cm wide for individual ground use, while this mat's 120cm width is specifically dimensioned for VW California and Mercedes Marco Polo roof beds. The static side fabric maintains the rectangular shape needed for the confined roof space, whereas standard camping mats often balloon outward during inflation. The 45cm pack size is designed to fit campervan storage cubbies rather than backpacking requirements.
Can you repair the Outwell Highway Pop Top Air 120 if it gets punctured?
The TPU construction can be repaired using standard camping mat repair kits that include TPU patches and adhesive. Clean the puncture area thoroughly, apply the patch following the kit instructions, and allow proper curing time before re-inflation. The 30D stretch polyester fabric is more resistant to punctures than thinner materials, though sharp objects in the pop-top roof space can still cause damage if the mat isn't positioned carefully during setup.
