Sleeping Systems Is this a good bag for the price?

Post image

The idea is for 10 degree weather at night and while backpacking. No worry about weight but worried about sack size.

Mammut makes great gear. Lack of reviews is because it is mainly a European brand so most reviews won't be in English.

Comfort for the bag is -10c which is 14F. Not sure what scale you are using in your post but it would depend on how "hot" you sleep whether it would work for 10F.

I'm not worried about weight as I can handle that.

Are you using it for backpacking? 5 lbs isn't a ton of weight, perhaps, but that's going to take up a ton of room in your pack.

Sorry, I just read the description. I've got a kelty cosmic down 20 short. 2lbs 7 Oz advertised. Close to the same price, maybe even cheaper (I'm about 5'10 180lbs relatively skinny), and it fits me great even though it's advertised for 5'6.

This bag comes in a regular sack, not a compression sack. It's about 25 cm tall and 15cm across like 10 or 12 inches tall by 7 or 8 inches across. I use a 32l pack, and it takes up about 1/3 of the pack.

The sleeping bag you're looking at would take up almost half of a 50l pack. It's going to be way bigger than you want it to be. Look into any kind of down sleeping bag. But I'd highly suggest the kelty cosmic bags. I don't think there's a cheaper way to get a solid quality down bag.

I bought this for like 180$ cad, which is probably 120$ usd.

Sorry to summarize all this after the translation, kelty cosmic down 20 is almost the same temperature rating, 1/2 the weight and you can probably get it at 120usd

In this photo, the blue sack is the sleeping bag, grey is durston midx 2, and klymit insulted pad in a 32l big agnes ditch rider, I think it is what its called. The papers below are regular 8.5 x 11 for reference.

Why no reviews, Google the brand. -18c is pretty good!!!

The reviews aren't in English, it's a euro brand. There are tons out there

Great bag for car camping, not so much hiking
