Weisshorn Sleeping Bag

Queen sleeping bag – Can't find out if I can split a Queen into 2 singles, how can I contact Weissshorn? At the moment not happy at all with the apparent inability to ask the makers questions about their product. Only used it inside so far - but very comfortable. Would like to know how to separate top and bottom of a Queen bag into two singles, so far have had no luck in finding the answer. Show details

UNZIPPED – I bought 2 double sleeping bags, everything about them is fine except the "zipper". It needs a heavier duty zipper, as the one installed is forever coming apart. Very hard to get it back together. Show details

Great value and serves its purpose well – Bought a Wiesshorn -15 degree sleeping bag expecting it to be over rated for what its capabilities were. I’ve used it quite a few times through winter in the forest and it looked after me well. While temperatures never got lower than -6, I can honestly say it kept me toasty warm all night. It is good value for what they cost and I would definitely recommend it for cold climate camping. Show details

I had high expectations & it comfortably met them – I lived in a tent whilst on a solo bicycling, fund raising trip. That trip's challenge was to cross from Canberra to Melbourne via the NSW & SA outback, crossing 2 deserts, in the thick of the Australian summer plus deal with the news media etc on the way and return to the mountains of the NSW southern highlands, all in 6 weeks. To do this I had… Read more

an excellent sleeping bag. That sleeping bag was rated down to -4°C. It was great, it rolled up easily, to a small size and weighed next to nothing. It was suited to fitting on a bike (lightweight/compact) and durable. that was almost 20 years ago but I think it to be an excellent benchmark.

The Weisshorn sleeping bag is rated to -10°C, is more water proof/resistant and is comparable in weight and size. It is just as easy to roll up and is slightly more padded.

My benchmark bag had a removable lining that was secured by Velcro tabs. Considering I spent a lot of nights in it this was ideal. After the bike trip I spent a further year & half following the harvest trail, living in the tent and sleeping bag before settling down. This Weisshorn bag doesn't have a removable lining but is washable.

After weighing up the pro's and con's I think it meets my benchmark. It doesn't surpass it but meets a pretty lofty standard.

It comes down to being a case of matching the right job to the right tool. I bought 2 of these bags, because my purpose is to keep it in our family stationwagon for emergencies, and for kids, visitors etc.

The postman delivered the sleeping bags and my wife and I gave them a test run that very night. Yes, we laid them out on our mattress and not a hard floor. It was a cold night and it actually gave the best nights sleep I've had in at least a year.

To sum up, I'm very happy with the bags. I have a high standard and expectation, these bags meet that mark.

Very conformable – I bought this for my sister and she absolutely loved it. Used it for camping and it was very comfortable and perfect for the weather conditions. I ended up buying 2 more and it is also very easy to store them. Show details

Very warm – This product is very very good. size is enough large and warm. it also can use bedding , blanket and mat. very very very good good good you must buy this

Don't rely on this sleeping bag! – I agree it is roomy and it kept me warm around my shoulders. But I needed a bag to keep me warm when I was trekking and sleeping in temperatures down to -2. I was really cold. The main body of the bag simply does not provide warmth for the temperatures I was in - let alone the claim of -10! Not only did it not keep me warm but the fabric it is… Read more

made of makes you sweat as well - cold and sweating in a sleeping bag! Not my idea of a good purchase.

Don't believe the -10° claim – This is a good, well put together sleeping bag. It is comfortable, roomy and has a nice feel. I would not believe the claim that it is a -10° to 15° bag. Maybe you won't die at -10 but you won't be warm. The other review here is quite obviously written by the seller. It's nearly word for word from the ad. I would recommend this for a good summer sleeping bag. Well worth the money. Just don't use it in the cold.

Covers everything a sleeping bag should – I'm really impressed with this sleeping bag. Gone are the days where we just jumped into any bag..these days there are so many options and varieties but after careful consideration I chose Weisshorn. The main reason was my future camping trips so I needed to be prepared for harsh nights. This bag not only looks appealing but the zippers are… Read more

nice and steardy. There's plenty of leg room for both sexes and you can even unzip the bottom should you wish to stick your feet out.

I should have been concerned about packing this away but the bag itself helps you adjust the straps so it will stop any further air expanding the inner bag.

No time to shiver in the cold nights and no time to struggle getting the sleeping bag back in it's casing.

Would I recommend - yes. If you are serious about a real sleeping bag then invest as it should last you a decade or more.
