Has anyone tried one of these? Costco Sleep Cell
I was wondering whether to get one. I find normal sleeping bags too restrictive. These aren't quite as wide as the sleeping pods but are 3 season so hopefully warmer. I also like the idea of the vents if you do get too hot at night.

If you've tried one please let me know what you think of it. Pros & cons.

We got one of these for my son and Im so impressed I'm going to sneak another in the trolly next time we are there.
The vents seem really good and I really like the fact that the side zips are more to the front, I hate the side zips on normal sleeping bags.
There is also a little pocket on the inside which will be great for festivals.
It also seems to be really well made.

Sorry this doesn't really answer your question!!

That's very helpful. Thank you.

Sounds like they are good. Very tempted now.

Our kids sleep in these. Been very effective down to 2 degrees but the vents mean they work just as well in France in the heat.

Looks good- I might get one for when I'm not with hubbie (we have a double usually) but I'm not sure if I'd rather get a kind I can get 2 of and join them together, then get rid of the double- is it massive!!!

I've got one, it's very good, especially on warm nights. On very cold nights you need a blanket over the top or some decent PJ's. They're big, lots of room inside for moving about if you're a wriggler like me.

Best things about it are the hard wearing fabric on the reverse and the included inflating pillow.

I got one in the end. Tried it for the first time at the weekend and loved it. It is a bit bulky (wouldn't want to use it for backpacking) but it was very comfortable. I was warm enough with fleece PJs. I loved the extra wriggle room and the built in pillow. The material feels very good quality (much better than my husbands Gelert sleeping pod), and I like the extra thick material on the bottom. Really pleased I got one.
