Comfort increased but so is size and weight of bag

By Gross Venediger Ranked #157 - Sleeping Bags February 27, 2006

The expander panel improves the comfort factor on cold nights where limbs hanging out of the bag would freeze. I'm 6'5", and I can now sleep comfortably moving my knees wherever I want with the bag fully zipped up. But, this already bulky synthetic bag now barely fits into my 6000cu in backpack. I am exaggerating, but this bag and panel combination is definitely not "light and fast". For summer use I will remove the panel and continue sleeping with one leg out of the bag.
