MontBell America, Inc. U.L. Super Stretch Hugger #2 Sleeping Bag: 25 Degree Down

i've only slept in the hugger line of bags. I feel like its the best fit for me because i move constantly at night. I enjoy the bag however i'm not sure if its all that warm. I havent tested it in real cold temperatures but in the summer in the moutains in the east coast i find myself bundeling up very tightly. That may be because i'm in a hammock though. 4 stars only because its super expensive, cant the chinese make something cheaper?

Finally I've found a bag I can get a good night's sleep in! Other mummies are too constricted for me - a side sleeper that raises one knee to waist-high. This bag is so comfy cozy cuz it nestles around you, but stretches where you need it to. So nice and lightweight too. The only thing is I would rate it at about freezing BUT I am a VERY cold sleeper.

This is a seriously comfortable bag. The stretch is effective, I think, allowing you to move while minimizing airspace when you're still. The material also contributes to the comfort factor, making it a joy to sleep in. I think the temp rating is probably right on. I just spent 5 nights in the Tetons and one night it got down just below freezing, and I was comfortable in this bag inside a 3-season tent with just a lightweight wool layer on and without even fully mummying-up. I do tend to sleep warm, but I think with extra layers I could push below the 25 degree rating in this bag. It's wonderfully compressible, too, taking up so little room in my pack. So far, I'm very happy with the purchase.

This is my first stretch sleeping bag and I am very pleased with it. The baffle system keeps the down where you need it and the stretch keeps it close to your body without feeling confining. The material is like silk to the touch. I have only used it twice so far where it was in the very low 30s and slept warm in a light base layer. It certainly must meet its' cold rating. Packs up super small and light.

The title pretty mush says it all, I bought this bag because it was light and packed small, but mostly because of its advertised "super stretch". I hate being confined in a tight bag so I went for it with this one. I have to say it wasn't really all I had hoped for. Really it doesn't seem all that stretchy. But when you get into it and start squirming around you start to notice that it really does do a pretty good job stretching, it really doesn't seem all that confining. I think I just got my hopes up a little too much, it isn't quite as stretchy as I had expected, but overall much more forgiving then a normal bag. Warmth wise this thing is hot. Granted my only use of it was 14 nights throughout the Patagonian summer and it never got down to the 25 deg the bag is rated, so I generally slept with the bag unzipped.

I bought this sleeping bag because of it's light weight and all of the good things I've heard about it. When it arrived the first thing I did was to pack it into the included stuff sack and weigh it. Sure enough it weighed 1 pound 12 ounces, just as advertised, on my small, mechanical, postage scale. While I didn't use a ruler to measure the stuffed size I'm guessing that it's about 6 inches by 14 inches. The material it's made of is soft and comfortable making using this bag a pleasure. So far I've used it 3 times and been plenty warm. The night time temperatures were in the mid 30s the first time and the mid 20s the last 2 times. I wore a tee shirt and very light weight long underwear in each case and was plenty warm even though one of the colder nights was in an open shelter along the Appalachian Trail. The regular length bag is for people to 5"10" tall and you can believe that. That's how tall I am and I can't imagine anyone taller using a regular length. The stretch feature is great and makes for a good night's sleep for someone who moves as much as I do in their sleep. Next I'll try it in even colder temperatures. So, if you're looking for a light weight bag, that compresses small, and keeps you warm down to it's rating, this may be the bag for you.

This is my second Montbell Super Stretch Hugger down sleeping bag. I love these things. They compress down to the size of a Nalgene bottle, weigh next to nothing, and are of the highest quality. In addition to this, the "Super Stretch" feature of these bags is awesome. I get claustrophobic in standard mummy bags and definitely don't have that problem in the Montbell bags. I can stretch, spread my feet apart, move around and the bag lets me do it all. Long story short...they are a few bucks more than other brands out there, but WORTH EVERY PENNY.
