Advantages: Warm and good price Disadvantages: Bulky and heavy
...I bought this as i needed a warm winter sleepingbag for some out of car camping and it is ideal. It is basically a duvet with a nylon outercoating.
I am a very warm person and can often use the extreame guidence as my comfort zone regarding the temperature. Recently I was camping in the peak distict (middle of Novemeber) the temperature went down to -4c and I was as warm as toast.

It is very comfortable inside, you cannot feel any seams or the zip, the hood fits nicely over you head without blocking your face and generally has a lot of room inside (im 6'1 and 16 stone). It has a nice soft feel inside and a general feeling of quality
I do a lot of backpacking type camping all over the country...

For carrying the bag has two small handles at either end (for lifting on / off vehicles etc. only really), two standard carry straps (although you'd have to be pretty strong to carry the bag for any length of time and most importantly I think detatchable rucksack style carrying straps for carrying, well, like a rucksack!
There is one internal mesh pocket which built...

Advantages: Extremely Warm. Considerable Amount Of Down Disadvantages: I Can't Think Of Any
...collar system which maintains full and even loft in the head and shoulder areas. One of the more common heat loss regions. An inner zipper running parallel to the outer zipper keeps the differential cut at a constant thickness, combined with the double draft tubes this completely seals in the warm air. The Snowy Owl is the standard choice for expeditions on the highest mountains in the world or the most remote areas of the North and South Poles. For extended sub zero camping, we highly recommend using VBL (Vapor Barrier Lock) technologies in your expeditions. "
I have since purchased one of these bags, but had one slightly custom made. Instead of the normal length, I had a longet length bag made, with an upgradr from the usual 700+ fill power, to an upgrade of 800+ fill power .
