Ranked #2145 - Sleeping Bags
January 16, 2009
This bag has down dandruff, and it's not nearly as warm as I was expecting. I've used it to 10 degrees and needed more layering than I should to keep warm. I do sleep a bit warm, too. Not very water resistant, the bag was wet through the fabric from condensation. And it's heavy by a pound compared to others in its category. It's roomy, and the collar is a nice addition for the price. I also appreciated the water bottle compartment in the toe box. On value alone it gets a 4. But more importantly, it doesn't compare to other bags for the intended use. If I was on a shoestring budget it would be a tough call because when you're cold, wet and shivering the $100 or so you saved isn't what's running through your mind. For another $140 you can have a Feathered Friends bag (Lark) that sleeps warmer, is much more water resistant, and weighs over a pound less.
