REI Sub Kilo (down)

"I had exactly the same experience as "WOODY" and live in Florida as well. The difference is it happened in 2000. REI was super, the Sub Kilo long is my favorite 20 degree bag and I am forever sold on doing business with those folks in Seattle."

"This review is as much a review of REI and their willingness to stand behind their produts. i owned an REI Plar Pod sleeping bag for two years.It was rated 30 degrees. I froze, with sleeping clothes and liner at 40 degrees on more than one occasion and REI replaced that synthetic bag with this Sub Kilo. I paid a nominal difference and am forever sold on where I purchase outdoor items. The sub kilo has performed well, is a bit optimistic as a 20 degree bag, but then again I live in Florida and barely experience temps below 30 degrees. packs small, 2.2 lbs (even tall model) and water resistance is good, High value bag. "

"I have to admit I didn't consider myself "down folk" until I tried this extremely lightweight (2 lbs. 4 oz.) 700 fill-power down bag. I've yet to fully test the 20 degree rating, but have found it very lofty, warm, and comfortable thus far. The bag is very well made, and the pertex nylon shell and microfiber lining help keep moisture under control. I wasn't really looking to pay $219 for a bag, but I couldn't be more pleased with the investment."
