Review:
Not long after purchasing my alpine winter sleeping bag from OnePlanet (see my review on OnePlanet Winterlite sleeping bag), I purchased this one for 3/4 season use in not so extreme temperatures. For Australian climate, this bag is ideal for the cooler part of spring and autumn and in winter down to about -2 degrees outside of snow areas). Although the specs say ‘-8’, with a layer of thermal underwear on - it keeps you nice and toasty to about 0 degrees.
The best feature of this bag (or any sleeping bag of that standard and loft 800 fill power) is that the weight to warmth ratio is excellent - which is one key reason for buying the OnePlanet sleeping bags. They pack really small yet are light to carry and super warm at night.
Another thing I really like from this brand is that you can buy any of their models with different temperatures ratings, hence fill weight that suit your individual requirements. If you bought the bag and feel you want a bit more dawn filling - you can send it to them and they add it in.
These bags are quite expensive but so is every kit that is made with high quality and for professional use. Highly recommend this brand and I’m planning to buy another one for the warmer months of the year (this one is too warm for summer use).
Pros:
- Superb weight to warmth ratio
- Small Pack Size
- Light Weight
- Quality Materials
- Custom Made to Order
Cons:
- Expensive
Comment:
My second OnePlanet sleeping bag and although they are expensive, I am super happy with the weight to warmth ratio and the overall performance of this sleeping bag. Highly recommended for anyone that is looking for a quality sleeping bag for professional use.
