| 'GOOD QUALITY, DOES EXACTLY WHAT IT SHOULD' | | Strengths:
Lightweight (about 130g) and large (90cm widde compared to 80cm for the average sleeping bag. The extra width is good as silk has no natural stretch so the limit to your wriggling about while sleeping is therefore the sleeping bag which has a lot more 'give'. Very comfortable against the skin and makes a great hot-weather bag in it's own right. Also has a drawstring hood.[Update 13/02/08] Lightweight (about 130g) and large (90cm wide compared to 80cm for the average sleeping bag).

Like all liners can be annoying to use and tends to get a bit tangled up. £40 is not cheap but then again it is being used to protect a £180 bag.[Update 13/02/08] Like all liners can be annoying to use and tends to get a bit tangled up. £40 is not cheap but then again it is being used to protect a £180 bag. | | Overall:
If you have a down bag it is well worth the investment in a good liner, they up the temperature rating, save cleaning (and hence damaging) the down, are much more comfortable than nylon and are usable on their own. This is a very good example of it's type, it is larger than the bag, very light and easy to use (barring the inevitable twisting). I am very pleased with this, particularly compared to my previous cotton one.[Update 13/02/08] If you have a down bag it is well worth the investment in a good liner, they up the temperature rating, save cleaning (and hence damaging) the down, are much more comfortable than nylon and are usable on their own.
