Doesn't easily fit back into the bag

I took this with me on a 3 week trip to Asia. Before I left on my trip, I washed it and my fiance stuffed it back into the bag for me. But, for the life of me.on my trip I couldn't stuff it back into the drawstring bag it came in. This sleeping bag was definitely helpful for my allergies but I really don't know if I can use it on another trip. It ended up taking up more space than it should.

Pros
  • Sports & Outdoors
Cons
  • It can be difficult to pack back into its carrying case

Perfect for my needs

This is going to sound strange. I live in a furnished studio, which has a queen bed. I'd prefer a twin, but that wasn't an option. It's very cumbersome to clean the sheets at this size, particularly since I've been using a manual washer to avoid the laundry room in the building due to covid. So I thought having a smaller sheet would make my life easier. But I didn't want a standard sheet because it wouldn't be able to stay in place as well since it would be smaller than the bed. I had heard…

Pros
  • The Friendly Swede Travel Sleeping Bag Liner is easy to store, and it doesn’t take up much space
Cons
  • The liner may be too slippery on some surfaces

Great for travel: my feedback

We loved it.Folding and storage is easy and fastEasy to wash in washerLarge and roomyGreat for hotel/motel when you can’t be sure how well the room bed are cleaned .

Pros
  • It’s easy to get in and out of, making it perfect for people who need to get up frequently during the night
Cons
  • The liner may be too heavy for some individuals to carry

Good Purchase! - my new review

Perfect for Sea Base, which was way too hot for anything more than a sheet anyways! Did have to dig out a little extra clothing for overnight temps in NE at scout camp, but worth the lightweightedness. The XL size gave me tossing and turning room, in addition to already being tall and on the bigger side. Definitely using again and highly recommend!

Pros
  • The sleep sack is easy to clean, ensuring that you maintain high standards of hygiene on your travels
Cons
  • The liner may not be very comfortable to sleep in for extended periods of time

The quality of this sleeping bag insert was absolutely great. The fabric felt nice against the skin and it was surprisingly roomy. The pillow pocket was huge and very convenient. Folding this up to put into it's carry pouch was much easier than most other products like tents, sleeping bags, etc. I'm allergic to down feathers, but am forced to use down bags for ultra light purposes. Using this bag insert actually kept a nice barrier for me and my nostrils wide open LOL.I REALLY wanted to give 5…

Pros
  • The Friendly Swede Travel Sleeping Bag Liner is made from breathable material, preventing you from getting too hot or stuffy
Cons
  • The liner may be too hot for use in warmer climates

Comfortable and convenient

Three trips in, and I am enjoying this liner in my 35 degree down bag. Seems to give me an extra 8-10 degrees of comfort in the cold. It is comfortable and convenient, it actually fits back into its pouch easily. Would offer the idea of attaching the pouch to the liner so it doesn't get lost. It is pretty slippery, which makes it easy to move around in. But when I use it in a Sierra Designs Backcountry Bed ,which doesn't have a side zipper, it can be tricky to get in and out of. Mostly because…

Pros
  • It’s an excellent option for those who want to minimize their carbon footprint while traveling
Cons
  • The liner may not be wide enough for some individuals

Overall, a good buy

The fabric is soft and silky, and is relatively generous in size. My only complaint is that the zipper stitching is broken in numerous (6) places, so you have to be particularly careful when zipping it up - at least until I mend it . Although it will be pretty easy to repair myself by restitching it, I shouldn't have to do so.I would return it for a replacement (not a refund), but it's needed for this weekend.

Pros
  • It’s an excellent product for backpackers and hikers who need to take minimalistic gear on their travels
Cons
  • The liner may not provide enough protection from the elements

Decent product for the price

Update: immediately after I wrote this review the company reached out to me and offered to send me a new product after they found out mine had ripped. The item was shipped to my house within 3 days. It’s nice to know they take pride in their products and stand behind them.I used this liner while camping, hoping that it would add a few degrees to my sleeping bag. Tested it out in Colorado on some 10° nights.I felt like this liner did what I hoped, and helped retain some of my body heat to keep…

Pros
  • It’s perfect for people who want to avoid using hotel sheets and pillows, ensuring that they maintain their hygiene standards
Cons
  • The liner may be prone to snagging or tearing on rough surfaces

Stuff sack/cobtaining bag

The liner utself seems like a good purchase. Would have given it a 5 if I could stuff the liner back into the bag but there is no way to do so once you've unrolled and used it. I like the idea of the stuff bag but it's way too small to get back in there. :(

Pros
  • It is a great option for those who love camping, as it keeps you warm and snug all night long
Cons
  • The liner may feel too constricting

Just what I was looking for

I do a good amount of travel for work and have become increasingly uncomfortable sleeping in beds shared with so many different strangers. Everyone doesn't have the same sanitary standards and there have been many reports of subpar cleaning even at top hotels. in the past I've brought an extra towel or sheet to sleep on but this is ideal as it folds to be very compact. It also has a tuck in compartment for pillows so your face is not buried in the hotel's pillow. I bring my own pillow (as well…

Pros
  • ✅ KEEPS YOU AND YOUR CAMPING BEDDING CLEAN: Increase the longevity of your sleeping bag by protecting it from bacteria, sweat and other potential contamination. Bring it on your camping/backpacking trip to have it ready for camp and hostels to discourage those nasty bed bug. Why not even bring it on your weekend trip as a clean layer between hotel sheets for extra protection?
Cons
  • The liner is not very soft or comfortable

Great for sleeping, but a bit spotty.

I bought two of these for a camping trip. I thought we would have hot weather and wanted something lightweight. The product is silky and comfortable. However, I washed it before using and spots appeared. I washed it after our first use and more spots appeared. This happened on both of them (I bought an extra long gray one and a blue one). I don't understand the spots, but otherwise, I like fabric. It's easy to fold, soft, and comfortable.

Pros
  • The Friendly Swede Travel Sleeping Bag Liner is incredibly lightweight, making it perfect for backpackers and hikers
Cons
  • It may be difficult to find the right size for your needs

Multibeneficial on my review.

I initially purchased this as a way to keep my sleeping bag clean. It is light, compact, and fits perfectly in my regular length 30 degree down bag. The liner's texture is comfortable. It certainly does what it was intended to do. I had previously slept in this bag in low 30's temperature and felt cold throughout the night. But with the liner, as thin as it is, I recently slept in high 20's with the same sleeping bag and did not feel cold. Also, I haven't timed it, but I feel like my sleeping…

Pros
  • The sleep sack is made from high-quality materials that are durable and long-lasting
Cons
  • The liner may not be suitable for use in humid conditions

Great purchase! best in my review

It’s a beautiful color and it seems very well-made. The zipper looks sturdy. I washed it on the delicate cycle and it came out of the wash just fine. I crawled in it in my bed and it is very roomy and very soft. It was a bit difficult to fold up because of the material but not so much that I wouldn’t suggest buying it. Would probably be easier with two people but I tried to do it myself. Fits right back in the bag it came with.

Pros
  • The product is available in various colors, allowing you to pick one that suits your style and preference
Cons
  • The liner may take up too much space in your luggage

Sleeping bag of the future.

It fit in my rollaboard. It comfortable, it’s super lightweight. I bring it on all my trips now because I don’t sleep in hotel sheets. And I love the color it’s vibrant.

Pros
  • Outdoor Recreation
Cons
  • The liner is not very durable and may wear out quickly

Good Not Great good for me

Will update when I have tried them. Package arrived in good condition, They included some stickers and a touchpad stylus.not really sure why.seems like they could've lowered the price without it or included something related to camping/sheets (carabiner, waterproof pencil, small field notes™ notebook)I'd like the carrying case to be a little bigger, I unraveled the sheets to check the quality, and upon folding it back up had a hard time getting it in the little bag. A compression sack would be…

Pros
  • The sleep sack is machine washable, making it easy to clean and maintain
Cons
  • The liner may not fit in all sleeping bags

Perfect versatile travel sheet!

I bought this for a summer camp in Northern Minnesota and it worked wonderfully for both 90F nights and 60F nights. I used it on it's own with no sleeping bag (since I was on a mattress in a wood cabin). It is also easy to wash and dries pretty quickly. Easy to fold and roll back up as well. I reccomend for anyone who does a lot of travelling in more rustic accommodations (perhaps not for grond sleeping by itself though!)

Pros
  • Sleeping Bag Accessories
Cons
  • The carrying case is quite flimsy
