I love my PD600. Its toasty and warm, packs down small and doesnt cost the earth. Love it! Continue reading...
Does everthing it should do, I have the newer PD '09 Model, I am 6 feet and it fits me well, very warm even in the middle of winter, nothing to complain about. Spent several months choosing a bag, look at lots, Continue reading...

They're impossible to get into a stuff sack -- or out of one -- at the moment because they're out of stock and I think Alpkit say they don't know when they'll be available again.

They are quite easy to get in the compression sack, I haven't tried the stuff bag but I've not heard of any complaints. The trick is to stuff them in foot end first.

They ARE the biz!

Compression bag is no issue but it took me some convincing to shove it inside the tiny stuff bag...

Pack easy peasy into sack,then sit on it and tighten straps as far as poss.
Really small pack size,well impressed and warm.

My PD800 will go into a 8L drybag without too much trouble so I suspect the 600 is nice and small.

 Quality and attention to detail seems very good indeed.
