 Slumberjack Big Timber -20F Long Right Sleeping Bag By: Slumberjack Average Rating: 5.0 Total Reviews: 3 More Information Winter Sleeping Bag is WARM & QUIET -Love it!  On: 2007-10-10This sleeping bag is really great. It is far warmer than my other nylon bags, and comparable to a 6 inch thick down comforter. And I mean that in a good way. The cotton duck outer (like soft canvas) and comfy flannel inner is just awesome - and QUIET. I just love the quietness. All my older bags have been nylon which make a lot of rustling noises which bother me everytime I move (and anyone else trying to sleep nearby). This SlumberJack Big Timber long sleeping bag is so cushy soft you almost dont need an air mattress. But youll sleep better if you do have one. I can highly recommend the ThermaRest Base Camp air mattress. Its really great, and last for dozens of years! Therm-a-Rest Base Camp (Large) The one thing to be aware of is that no air mattress does well if you leave it all blown up in a hot trailer. It will pOp! or at least get a slow leak. If I hadnt done that, Id still be using the same ThermaRest I got in the 1980s and slept on sharp rocks & broken glass without a puncture nor leak. Tough! So deflate it some before you leave it for the day (or season) and youll never have a problem. This sleeping bag has a BIG square foot end, so there is tons of unrestricted room for feet. Totally opposite of mummy bags. Zipper is good quality metal. I sometimes feel a slight draft near the zipper, but this bag is so warm that is ok - just slightly refreshing. This bag is wider than most, which is ok - I have plenty of room. But it might be a squeeze in a small tent. This is NOT a backpacking bag. Its too bulky & heavy to lug around all day. But its perfect for car camping! Its possible to use this bag in the summer, but you will be opening it just to cool off about half the time. Get yourself another sleeping bag for summer. This is the most comfortable winter sleeping bag I have ever had, and Im happy to recommend it now. A well-manufactured bag On: 2006-09-06This bag is big and roomy for comfortable sleeping. The outer shell is pretty heavy duty and should hold up for a long time. The zipper is metal and functions very smoothly, and there is a velcro tab at the top of the bag to hold the zipper in place once youre in the bag for the night. It is very warm, and the cotton flannel is much more comfortable than the nylon of most mummy bags. Im taking it with me on a remote deer hunt in northern Maine in November and dont expect any problems with staying warm. Excellent! On: 2005-10-25Great sleeping bag! Keeps you toasty warm sleeping out on winter camp nights. |
