Same problem here. Both of mine leak from tiny pin holes all over it, completely unrepairable. I wonder if this is happens with other makes?

Thats what I was thinking, so I am not rushing out to buy a new one.

I gave up on mine fairly early on due to a number of leaks around the seams. To be fair, Alpkit did give some good advice regarding fixing them and offer to replace them. I use a foam matt if there's danger of punctures now.

Got the T-shirt on these.

Just contact Alpkit. They will provide you with a free-post address to return them. Some early ones have a fault. Alpkit will repair or replace. Total cost to you. . . nowt!

Best customer service in the business.

ditto twang's problem with mine

ditto marko - full refund provided (and they were a few years old)

Hah, no way. I was about to email Alpkit today about a fault on one of my Airics. Cheers!

Deffo talk to Alpkit. They've actually changed factory since the Airic days and the new range - Dozer etc - are apparently high quality. I had some issues with a Fat Airic, but the Dozer has been perfect over six month of use.

I've sorted a few flats on an old thermarest using park patches, and a long knife slice (no idea how that happened) using that glue-y stuff you get to repair soft-tops.

And IIRC it was possible to put it in the bath (not sure why it wouldn't have been!)

I picked up a 'demo' one in their factory sale last year, could see there was a patch on, no probs i thought.

Got home, blew it up, left it over night and it had lost a lot of air. Got it in the bath to check for a leak only to find loads of tiny pin prick holes all over it. Sadly couldn't return it
