Sleeping Bags > Snugpak Sleeping Bags

Value for money and durable

Advantages: Durable, light, small
Disadvantages: not good in colder conditions, other bags are smaller

I've had this bag for about 5 years now and it has really withstanded the wear and tear it has come under: More than 25 weekends sleeping on bare ground, a month long expedition in south america and several bunkhouse trips. In that 5 years it has kept me remarkably warm. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone planning to sleep in temperatures around 0 degrees (C) as unlike the manufactures rating of extreme -5 i would say it is more like 0. It has also ...
...indoors, where the full length zip can easily be undone and the fact that there are 2 zippers on one zip means you can easily get some air to your feet whilst keeping your shoulders warm. The drawstring is another good feature as on those colder nights it ensures your shoulders remain covered. However the best aspect of theis bag is its size, it packs down to a really small size and in comparison to other synthetic bags it is tiny and weighs very ...

Review of Snugpak Softie 6 Kestrel

Slumber Warmly on Your Next Camping or Backpacking Trip

Advantages: Great for "cold" camping, Very silky soft interior/exterior & waterproof, Relatively Lightweight
Disadvantages: Somewhat bulky for a backpacking sleeping bag

...2008 when I purchased this Slumberjack +10 Degree Sleeping Bag. I was in the U.P of Michigan in late October. I thought to myself before going...."No WAY am I going to freeze again". So, I did some online shopping and sporting goods store shopping and came across this sleeping bag. I didn't really want to spend the money on it. The most I had spent on a sleeping bag before was around $50.00. Yet, I was sooooooo happy I decide to spend the little ...
...in this sleeping bag. It is off the charts comfortable. It's compact enough to fit on the bottom of your backpack inside your tent,(although it is a bit more bulky and heavy than some others). If you want that extra warmth though, you will have to take that slighty bulky factor with a grain of salt. I wasn't upset that it took a little more effort to attach this to my pack. I was happy to do it, because the first night I used this, I didn't wake ...

Review of Slumberjack Odyssey 10° Mummy Sleeping Bag Regular

Mountain Hardwear Lamina 0

Advantages: Very warm, great colour, comfortable & simple
Disadvantages: slightly heavy

The orange glow of this sleeping bag kept us warm on the Northern Ice cap, south Patagonia. Our expedition took us through mozzie ridden temperate forest; snow and then onto the icecap itself. For a period of 6 weeks, this bag proved infallible. Having been snowed in for a long period on the icecap, warmth was paramount. The Lamina remained warm even after becoming saturated with tent condensate. The neck baffle system worked a treat; it was simple ...
...open, even with gloved hands, and over the 6 week duration the zips didn't 'catch' once. If you're looking for a hard core synthetic sleeping bag then this definatley gets my seal of approval; if the icecap wasn't enough it's also stood up to some wet & windy wild camping in the UK lake district. ...

Review of Mountain Equipment Dewline

A true 4 seasons bag!

Advantages: light, warm, waterproof compression sac, great aftersale service from Macpac in case you need them!
Disadvantages: lack of colors (only orange)

I bought it few months ago after a very cold night I had at Wales. I had a cheap synthetic sleeping bag and that night I realized the importance of a good night sleep since my next day was a nightmare (especially if you are doing caving in the Mendips). I found it very light and extremely warm and if you compare that with the price £200 (not the original one - RRP: £239.99) it's an excellent value for money compare to similar products with the same ...
...camping the next morning the bag was wet in the side near the tent and that was probably because of humidity concentration (that's my tents fault anyway). So in order to avoid this problem I'm using my bivi bag (Rub - survival zone/400gr, £40 - RRP: £50) which I use it as a liner as well (since I have it always with me). I decided to buy the bivi bag after an almost bad experience I had in the French Alps and since then I'm not going anywhere without ...
