Kelty Light Year Women's 25° Ultralight Down Mummy Sleeping Bag Long

Advantages: Warm, light, confortable
Disadvantages: No shoulder/neck baffle, zip can snag at times.

...The Piute (also availble; woman\'s Piute) is a warm and cozy sleeping bag. Its price is a reflection of its quality and appears reasonable compared to other bags of similar specifictions. Its lightweight design is very useful for back packing or anytime that space is at a premium. It comes with a small stuff sack that it fits into neatly, although could be compressed further (not recomended for down bags, especially not for longer periods of time). The hood offers superb protection from the cold although it could possibly benefit from a second draw string baffle around the neck.shoulders area. However the drawstring around the top of the hood to enclose around the face is confortable and good at keeping the heat in whist allowing freedom of movement. When using this bag i (very) occasionally have a little trouble with the zip... Read review

...grows so the bag increases from 1.25m to 1.6m in length. The inside of the bag is dark green and the outer is navy blue and red. There is a two-way zip on each side of the bag so that it can be opened out and folded down like a quilt – handy for nappy changing!! Ajungilak do say that the bag can be used in a pram or pushchair. It also has all the bells and whistles that you would expect from a good quality mummy design sleeping bag, baffles, drawstrings, Velcro fasteners, extra filling round the feet and no coldspots. The outer is Micro-Lite Tex, a ripstop nylon especially made for Ajungilak, the filling is Terraloft (a type of hollowfibre) and the inner is polycotton. Altogether it weighs about 1500g and comes in it’s own stuff sac. The Little Viking can be machine washed at 60 degrees with a third of your usual detergent, rinsed 5... Read review

Advantages: Quality
Disadvantages: Expensive

...This sleeping bag has served me well for a long time. I have had it for a few years now and it isn't even showing signs of wear. Vango has not disappointed. Although it is relatively expensive you are paying for quality. I have trekked with this in my pack and it has left plenty of room for all the other essentials, such as tent, clothes, food, etc... This sleeping bag is definately a great buy. My only problem with it is that it did not keep me warm in the winter, but this was to be expected as it is not advertised to be all that effective in conditions below -10 degrees. I would recommend this to any serious camper/hiker for the spring/summer months. It is easy to pack down and compress in the bag given, with compression straps. Ends up in at a very manageable size, although not the smallest you can get. The price... Read review
