Works better than I expected

Written on Feb 05, 2021

I was very sceptic about this thing, then I found a lot of good reviews, and wanted to give it a try. Tested at home so far, on my favorite natural soap bar, reeealy wet (it would take it a full day to dry in my bathroom). So I've put the bar inside this case, rolled it three times, and left in my bedroom at room temperature for the night. In the morning the soap was much drier! It wouldn't even lather without added water. So I give it 5 stars, exceeded my expectations.

Stood up to rain and wind just perfect

Written on May 26, 2020

Used it on one trip so far. It was windy and raining thru the whole night, but the tent was absolutely dry inside. I use the polycro film as a footprint, and it was enough for the brushy grass surface.
Vestibules are big enough to cook and stay socialized if you want to, being still protected from the wind.
I recommend a 3P version for 2 people - for it's weight this will be a perfect option to keep all your gear inside and feel a lot of space.
And yes, the color is just perfect: it does not turn your tent into an oven in sun, and does not distort colors if you want to read inside etc.
Campsaver, kudos for the deal that allowed me to purchase this top-notch gear!

Awesome, light and sturdy

I absolutely love these poles. And I absolutely hate that helinox discontinued them. I was able to find the last 2 pairs in the US (most likely, heh) for me and my partner on Campsaver, took both, and never regreted. They pack so small, weigh almost the same as carbon poles, but you can fall onto a pole with all your weight, and it will not crack or curve (proven).

Wide, soft, warm - as a cloud when you're in it

Women's version is super-comfortable for side sleepers - if you're the one, consider it despite of gender.
This is also a perfect mummy bag for those who cannot sleep in the same pose whole night. I am one of those, and this mummy allows you to move inside it!
Warmest and softest sleeping bag I had.
The wind does not get thru the fabric - may be due to DWR, or the fabric itself.
The only difficulty I found was the compression process after night - it is incredibly hard to squeeze air out of the bag! I found the way . to first roll it as if . it was a sleeping mat, and then unroll steadily while jamming into the bag.
But the comfort it gives is definitely worth it!

Don't be confused by the picture - real gear is the 2019 model, superstar!

Warmest and softest sleeping bag I had. Bought this one for my partner, and Flame III for myself - both are cool!
