A little slick, but otherwise great
I grabbed the large sized one. Received it the other day and I was actually really pleasantly surprised by the size of the package....very compact. I gave it a trial run in preparation for a multi-day even coming up in a couple weeks, so here are my thoughts.
Inflation: I'm a good sized guy and it only took 4-5 breaths to get it pleasantly plump. It's made of a typical ripstop nylon, so it's a little "singy" if you slide around a lot and can be a little slick / prone to move around. The valve is pretty typical of most air pads and self-inflating pads.
I'm not typically a back sleeper, but for those who do, the low spot locks you in pretty good. When trying it on the back, I put a bit more air in to give it maximum depth.
As a side sleeper, I don't think it is ideal for going straight to the sleeping mat...chances are it will be a bit thin to give great support by itself....but don't forget, it's an ultralight pillow, not a super deep base camp pillow. For me, I like side sleeping with an arm up, so with a little less air, it locked beautifully onto my arm/shoulder and gave great head support. I actually found it surprisingly comfy for such a compact pillow .
On the tummy, I sleep with my arms up and crossed under my head. In this position, my arms trapped the pillow nicely, so no movement there. I ran the pillow a little softer and found it quite comfy without bottoming out on my arms at all.
Overall, if you're packing light, but still want a pillow, I'd say this is a very good option.

The "x-pattern" of the pillow helps keep your head on it in which makes it great for travel as well. I took this on a 6-hour flight and slept the whole time; woke up in the same place I fell asleep. I also use it as a lower back pillow at work which is nice.
It's a little difficult to roll up once you've inflated it, I'm not sure if making more paths in-between each chamber would help but rolling the air out of it can be quite a challenge as is. Otherwise it's an excellent product.

Light, moderately comfortable, but too slippery
First try with it was during some winter camping in early January. I had planned to slip it into the pillow cover part of my bag liner, but that put it in an uncomfortable position. So, it ended up on top of my Massdrop X Klymit ultralight sleeping pad. While it was better than a pile of clothes in a stuff bag, and all in not bad to sleep on, the damn thing was too slippery and worked its way out from under my head a few times in the night. Think some double sided Velcro or something is in order for the next trip.

My "go-to" pillow! Pack this on every single trip I've taken, whether tent, hammock, or open air. So small the weight/space is honestly negligible. Big neck saver the next morning when you wake up!

I really don't like this pillow. I've always used stuff sacks with clothes or my down jacket in the past. I thought I'd take the plunge buying this as my first pillow due to its low cost and weight. The only people I can see liking this pillow are back sleepers who fall to sleep easily. Otherwise the deep X indentation is very uncomfortable for side and stomach sleepers since it forces your mouth and nose to get somewhat buried in the middle of the pillow. Even when I covered the pillow with a shirt I often found the middle of the X moist from drool and condensation. I wouldn't recommend this pillow for most backpackers, you can buy better pillows from Exped, NEMO, Cocoon, Therm-a-rest, and Sea to Summit for a little bit more money and weight. I bought a Cocoon HyperLight that weighs only 0.8 oz more and is far more comfortable than this.
Pros:
Extremely lightweight and compact
Easy to inflate
Cons:
Not comfortable at all
Does not work well when under-inflated
The X design means you have to place your head in the middle of the X indentation because otherwise your head will slide off the pillow
And the X design sucks for side and stomach sleepers because you'll often find your face plastered to the middle of the X with condensation and drool

Not bad, not bad at all
Bought this to use as second pillow around camp. I personally find it slightly uncomfortable under my head so I have been using it to put under my feet at night after a long hike. Raising my feet helps immensely with decreasing swelling and promoting better blood flow. I find the next day is easier when i have done this the night before. Overall good quality product. At this price, weight and size it really is unmissable. Thanks and keep up the good work guys.

Very light but quite slippery
Overall very light and a decent size and shape (large) but I found it slipped around a fair bit, especially on top of my Klymit sleep pad.
Need to find a way to keep it from moving around. Might try putting a T-shirt over it at night.

ligth but noisy
Ligero pero ruidoso. Es necesario meterlo en una camiseta, y entonces la forma ahondada se adaptara perfectamente a tu nuca sin deslizarse. Durmiendo de lado es suficientemente grueso para no tener la cabeza caida.
