Awful Product From Awful Seller
This sleeping bag was horrible. I bought it because of all of the great reviews that it had, and the price seemed low for being so great. Like they say though, you get what you pay for. I used both sleeping bags to attempt to keep me warm overnight for a contest I had entered. My first impression after taking them out of the bag was already low, they were so incredibly thin. Laying on them felt just like laying on the ground. But it just got worse from there. I used BOTH SLEEPING BAGS AT THE SAME TIME and I still froze all night long (and it was about 50 degrees out, well within the range advertised). They were also advertised as being water resistant. When it started drizzling I learned that was also false. Instead of the water rolling off of it like you would expect with a water resistant product, it soaked straight in, becoming a thin, wet, cold sponge that I had to lay on for the rest of the night. I was so disappointed and confused at how such an awful product had so many incredible reviews.
And then I got an interesting letter in the mail. This letter was from the seller, begging me to leave him a 5-Star review for the product. In this letter, the seller was claiming to be a single Dad down on his luck who had invested all his money, blah, blah, blah. And then all the 5-star reviews made sense. I didn't believe for a second the story I was being fed, but obviously a lot of other people have. Whether the seller is what he claims to be or not, one thing if for sure: these sleeping bags suck worse than his story.
