1 out of 5 stars Not worth the price   December 7, 2009

I am 230 lb man Sleeps on stomach with side to side rolling. I used this bag on vacation for a week and was hard to get in and out. I kept getting tangled up in it when I rolled over. Hems falling apart after using it. Very poor quality stitching and fabric, but comfortable to sleep in before you get tangled. Storage bag that attaches to it connects to the middle of the bag and can't be removed. So you get that in your back too during the night.
I DON'T recommend.



2 out of 5 stars A good idea, but not for me   October 1, 2009

I like the idea of having something comfortable and my own to use when I'm in an unfamiliar place (hostels, boats, whatever). However, I'm a big guy who tosses and turns in his sleep, so I put the sleep sack to the test on a trip to Brazil where I was staying in a hostel.

After the first night, I realized I didn't toss and turn as much because I was worried about previous reviews that said if I did that, I'd probably destroy the sleep sack. However, in my effort to remain still, I didn't sleep well at all, and was one cranky irritable man the next morning. The next night I let myself go and was able to sleep as normal. It was weird being confined to such a small space, and I slept poorly and but I didn't notice any tears or weird damage to the bag. However, big guy + sleep sack means you'll end up bunching it up in odd places and it won't make for a comfortable sleep.

I ended up giving up on this and used it as a liner to protect myself from the hostel sheet. Granted, the sheets looked rather clean, but there was something nice about sleeping on a silk sheet.

It's not that this is a bad product. It's halfway decent, and if I were way thinner and able to sleep like a normal person, I'd probably be in love with it. It literally folds up to nothing so it won't add any weight or bulk to your bag.

The small drawstring bag can easily be carried in a tote or backpack and it's virtually weightless. Much smaller than a folded sheet for storage when not in use.

This sleep sack is great. Not only does it pack into the attached stuff sack easily, which is about the size of a soda can, but it weighs next to nothing. An easy add-in when packing. Also, it is large enough to sleep in comfortably - something that I was concerned about as a queen-sized bed gal. I had no sense of getting tangled in it. Glad I got it and it will go with me often.


5 out of 5 stars wonderful sleep surface feel   September 22, 2008

5 out of 5 found this review helpful

extremely light-weight silk sleep sack with attached stuff sack & pillow slot. the silk fabric feels just wonderful against your skin. it is soft without being slidey like some silks. indeed, as i have seen mentioned in other reviews, this is not the most durable product & it does turn over with you at times.

the first problem is, of course, associated with the weight - less materials equals less weight, but also equals less durability. over time, it develops stretch marks & starts to fall apart along those lines. i actually sleep in it at home all the time, so the durability thing needs to be understood in that context.

the second problem happens with nighties or other sleep sacks as well - in short with any tube in your bed or sleeping bag not tacked down at the sides. you can tack it down by using safety pins through the stuff sack & some of the attached ties to whatever is handy - the mattress, the sleeping bag, etc. - if you are so inclined.

despite these two problems, i still love this product & am preparing to purchase my third one since i have not found anything comparable that i like better. i like to use it when i travel to keep myself cocooned in this most luxurious feeling fabric regardless of the state of the sheets or blankets i am offered. i use it pulled up to my waist over all my clothes, anytime i will be sitting outdoors when it is cold. at hostels, i use it as a sarong to keep myself decent on the way to the showers. it air dries quite quickly after being washed.
