Hi - I have a Marumut Helium and a REI Quarterdome T1 that I would like to compress. What size would you recommend. I am very sizing challenged - I was looking for a sack for my clothes and ordered a XXL sil sack - I could fit almost my whole backpack in the thing and I spent more time trying to push the air out than it took me to break camp. Any help would be greatly appreciated :-)

Small is good for the Helium sleeping bag. I use that for both my 20 degree bag and also my zero degree bag. Unsure whether I'd put a tent in a dry sack though.

Also, I understand using these things to keep your sleeping bag dry, but remember when you compress the heck out of stuff it becomes a hard shape that doesn't sit down and fill the voids of your backpack. Its kinda like how a bear canister is impossible to pack, not because its so huge but because its a hard unforgiving shape that can't flex. I find that my sleeping bag will compress just fine and take up less space once I pack all my other junk on top of it in my little pack.

I'd guess small for your sleeping bag and medium for your tent. You could go up to a medium for the sleeping bag too, but I generally use a small for my 20 degree down bag. The medium would give you some room to shove something else in there too - extra socks, a puffy jacket, etc.
