Has anyone tried the Towsure Oggie range? I am interested in the Oggie Explorer (3/4 season).

I have recently visited their shop and looked at this Towsure one and a Vango Wilderness 350 (2/3 season) but didn't know which to buy. I asked customer services there as I was suprised that that a Vango one was cheaper than their own make, even though they are both 350gsm. They were a bit baffled themselves(!) and just told me the Vango one would be better quality, and as I know they are highly rated on here, I bought it.
However I just wanted to know if anyone has experience of the Oggies and if they are any good as I am still wondering if I have made the right decision.
I have also found a Gelert Tryfan Classic DL in Halfords reduced to £12.99. It says it is 300gsm but also says it is a 3 season! The comfort rating on the Gelert is -0.3 to +4.8 but only +3 to +20 on the Vango. How can a lower gsm have a better temperature rating and why do some of the same gsm have different season ratings or have I got it all muddled. They all seem to have the same sort of hollow fibre filling. The Oggie does not even state a comfort rating! Just says -10 which I assume is an extreme rating.
Which of the 3 bags is best? We normally camp from end April/early May to mid September. Please help!!
