Level on the rounded score (7.8 each). The decision comes down to price vs warranty length.
Watch out: 1-year warranty (shorter than Havnby's 3 years), and NovaPads' own FAQ says about 6-7° of slope remains.

Full review →NovaPads Air-Foam Pro edges Havnby FlatCore overall (7.84 vs 7.79 before rounding, both shown as 7.8): it leads on setup speed, build and value, Havnby on fit. NovaPads states a Juniper fit, has ventilation grooves rather than a rear-screen cutout, and its own FAQ says about 6-7° of slope remains. Havnby also states a Juniper fit and uses a fixed taper to offset the seat slope. NovaPads costs $239 sale ($289 regular), or €239 in the EU, against Havnby's $549. Havnby ships with a 3-year warranty, NovaPads with 1 year. Pick by which trade-off matters more.
