Warmer but not as roomy or comfortable as 35 degree model.

by Mike, from PA, United States Written on September 17, 2018
I have had the 35 degree model for over a year and love the comfort and warmth down to freezing. I wanted one a little warmer for late fall hiking in the mountains. Sierra Designs now has a 700 fill weight good for 16 degrees. BUT in additon to adding fill, they cut it narrower making it much less bedlike so not as easy to move around in. I looked at dimensions before buying and they are listed the same as 35 degree model..but they are not. The 700 fill is narrower at shoulders, hips and feet making it less comfortable to sleep in. Due to this, the Nemo Disco 15 is a better choice, with a warmer footbox and comfy stretch features, and is lighter/more compressible as well.
Pros:
  • Light, decently compressible, comfortable, warmer than previous model
Cons:
  • Narrower cut, bot as roomy to move around i n. Listed dimensions not accurate
Best Used for:
  • Backpacking 25 - 35 degrees
Would recommend: Yes

Can't wait to try it

In preparation of our hiking trip to Canyonland, Utah, I bought this sleeping bag on the suggestion of our past hiking guide. It took me a year of reading reviews and looking at all the other sleeping bag companies before I finally just went ahead and bought it. I was so surprised when it arrived on how light it was and how it could compress tightly into my backpack. I actually can't wait to sleep in it. It really feels like I am sleeping on my bed. My son tried it and asked it I would also buy him one. So now we each how one for our trip!
Pros:
  • Light weight
  • Comfortable
Cons:
  • None
Would recommend: Yes
