Kelty Mistral 20° Cloudlofttm 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

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...

Ends up in at a very manageable size, although not the smallest you can get. The price... Read review

Advantages: reasonably priced, looks good, works well
Disadvantages: not for colder climates

...Slumbalux Leisure Sleeping Bag. Brought this sleeping bag at a knockdown price on eBay, but by the time I'd finished paying the Postage and Packing costs, I discovered it wouldn't have cost me much more buying on-line direct, oh well. It was brought for my teenage daughter to use on our camping trips, as she doesn't like the Mummy style sleeping bags, as they make her feel claustrophobic, also with this being open ended she was able to take her own pillow from home, which is a creature comfort for her. Very nicely coloured in mainly Blues and Orange and patterned in swirls/ lines and Greek key style, very trendy looking, for the younger members of the family. It's a 38oz Polyester filled bag, and Polyester/Cotton outer cover, un zips fully down one side, for ease of access. Ideal for warmer camping climates and general... Read review
