as perfect a purchase as you can get!

I'm preparing for the Pacific Crest Trail hike. Most items are easy to find. A good sleeping bag line didn't show up when you searched in the hiking-related searches. I was planning on going to the local fabric store, finding the desired material, and then finding someone to sew it into a liner.The friendly Swede liner was exactly what you need if you use an ultralight sleeping bag or in my case a quilt. Incredibly lightweight, silky smooth, attached pillow liner, and the ability to open one…

Pros
  • Very comfortable in the South Georgia heat and humidity.
Cons
  • The sleeping bag liner may be too small for taller individuals

Good Purchase! for my opinion

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
  • Dries quickly in the sun
Cons
  • The liner may not be worth the cost for users who only camp infrequently

Impressive! good for me

This is a really nice sleeping bag liner! As soon as it arrived I decided to wash it as I would if I was on the trail aka, cold hand wash/hang dry, to see how it would go. As soon as I started to wring the water out, the liner was light as a feather! It only took an hour and a half, give or take (I forgot to note my official start time) to fully dry hanging inside my house/no breeze. Seriously lightweight and compact but large and roomy once unfolded. Its soft and silky as well. I'm taking it…

Pros
  • Available in a range of colors to suit all preferences
Cons
  • The liner may not be suitable for use with certain types of sleeping bag materials

As advertised for my opinion

Purchased for warmer weather camping. Found that the material is extremely warm and holds in body heat. Product is as advertised: light weight and compact when folded. Easy to wash and dry while traveling.

Pros
  • Compact and lightweight design doesn't add bulk to your luggage
Cons
  • The liner may not have enough padding to provide comfort

I love being clean. When I need my sleeping bag, I may or may not be clean as it usually means I'm camping. Not only is it a costly pain to wash a sleeping bag, but it can't be good for the materials to do it too often. This is the perfect solution to keep your sleeping bag vcoean longer and be comfortable. I'm a junky for cotton sheets and really dislike anything else. However, cotton would be heavier and thicker. So I tried this one. I was very happy. Temps were in the 50-60s at night and I…

Pros
  • Feels just like cotton, but with added durability
Cons
  • The liner may be too bulky to pack in a suitcase or travel bag

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
  • Great for people with allergies or sensitivities to bedding
Cons
  • The liner may trap body heat, causing users to sweat excessively

Unique and compact best in my review

My daughter has an allergy to certain laundry detergents. I purchased this so that when she sleeps over someone's house, she can use this sack to protect her from a reaction. It is very lightweight, nice for summer. In winter, you can cover with blankets. She is completely enveloped within this, and there is a flap into which you can insert a pillow. It comes with a bag for easy storage and transport. This washes well, and is pretty easy to get back into that bag. I bought one for myself so…

Pros
  • Provides an additional layer of warmth
Cons
  • The liner may produce a lot of static electricity when used with synthetic fabrics

Liked it so much I'm buying 4 more.

I bought two of these travel sheets a month ago and we've gotten a lot of use out of it. It packs up really small, is lightweight, and comes with a nice sleeve.My daughter spent a week in Wadi Rum (desert in Southern Jordan), and in Petra last month. She stayed in hostels and used this camp sheet to give her peace of mind in case of bed bugs or other critters. Then this last weekend, my son and I camped in a canyon near the Dead Sea. It was still in the mid-80's when we went to sleep. I crawled

Pros
  • Extremely lightweight and easy to carry
Cons
  • The liner may not be breathable, causing users to overheat

Great for travel on my review.

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
  • Includes a handy stuff sack
Cons
  • The liner may have a strong chemical smell upon arrival

Comparative size of compartments

This is the very best of such products I have seen and I plan to use it. However, the height of the body compartment compared to the pillow compartment is too short. I did not see any mention of these measurements in the description.The top of the body compartment only comes up to halfway between my chin and nipples. It would be much better for me if it was tall or deep enough for this to cover my nose [due to physical issues], allowing less area for the pillow. I think the compartments are…

Pros
  • ✅ SILKY SOFT AGAINST YOUR SKIN: Made of durable, easy clean machine-washable Polyester with comfortable silk texture that is soft against your skin while also transporting away sweat and moist from your body during hot summer and spring nights.
Cons
  • The liner may be too delicate for rough terrain

Good Price Good Product

I used this camping sheet during a trek from hut to hut in the Alps, and then again, while camping on my floor while waiting for my furniture to arrive after a cross country move.Quality: I has been hardy enough to last multiple nights, although I did manage to slightly tear the top seam while trying to situate myself. This was after quite a few nights of use and it likely would have been a worse tear if the make was of lesser quality.Size: I am a 5ft6in female, this fits me comfortably, there…

Pros
  • Machine washable for easy cleaning
Cons
  • The liner may not be durable enough for extended use

A must-bring for overseas trips

This was probably the most important purchase I made before a trip to Southeast Asia earlier this July. I used it in the hostels we stayed in, to line the beds and their pillows, to keep the A/C from blowing directly on me, and for just the right amount of cover without being hot.I also used it on a 10-hour layover in Qatar while in the Quiet Lounges--it works great both as a silky blanket and as a tent that you can snooze under and feel safe and cozy as well as actually see through a bit. No…

Pros
  • Protects your sleeping bag from sweat and oils
Cons
  • The liner may not have a secure closure mechanism, allowing it to come undone during sleep

Keeps The Bedbugs Out

Used it on recent trip to India. Kept the chill off on the houseboat in Kashmir, and kept the bedbugs away from all the other shoddy places I slept at throughout the country.

Pros
  • Keeps you warm and cozy during cooler nights
Cons
  • The liner may be difficult to pack back into its stuff sack

Ok, but not great - my new review

3/20/2018 updateI didn't expect the manufacture to respond to my review. I'm changing it to a 5 as my interpretation of their product was not correct:Our liner is not necessarily designed for warmth and is simply designed to keep your sleeping bag clean and can also be used on its own in hotter climates. As I mentioned in response to your review, we are working on releasing our liner in different styles and materials including one that will be more designed for warmth but since those options…

Pros
  • Versatile use for hostels, camping, and travel
Cons
  • The liner may not be able to withstand repeated machine washing

Great Value and Features

I love the feel, quick drying capabilities, and ease of getting into and out of this travel sheet. I ourchased this for a three week stay in AirBnbs in Italy. It was great for rooms that weren't as clean as I'd like and for scratchy sheets. I am a larger girl (short, size 14/16) and I could comfortably get into and out of this and sleep without getting tangled in it. Given the price point, I can hardl complain but you should know despite only luxury use (i.e. i n beds or on futons), the sheet…

Pros
  • ✅ SIDE OPENING WITH VELCRO CLOSURE OR ZIPPER: The standard liner has a 60cm (23") opening on the left side to make it easy for you to get in and out. The new, zippered version opens all the way down.
Cons
  • The liner may not have enough space to accommodate users who move around a lot in their sleep

Best travel purchase!

This ended up being one of my favorite purchases for my trip to Africa. I sprayed it down with Permitherin before packing it and was so grateful to have it it in some of the, ah, more authentic places we stayed. I would be horrified to find ants on the bed, blood stains on the mattress and other surprises various places we went, but having this little secret weapon in my carry on meant I could snuggle up and get a decent night's sleep no matter where I was. The pillow pocket is pur genius…

Pros
  • Zipper closure
Cons
  • The ultralight design may not provide sufficient insulation in colder climates

Don't bother with the cheaper option

I can't attest to the more expensive microfiber product offered but the cheaper option was not worth my time or money. Initial impressions, it felt very chintzy for $20. The pillow case is a design failure since it faces inwards, having the opening face your body defeats the purpose of the pillow case, certainly not a convincing barrier to germs, bed bugs etc. In addition, the two large threads which hold the corners of the pillow case had torn small holes in the fabric large enough for bed…

Pros
  • Breathable fabric keeps you cool in warm weather
Cons
  • The liner may irritate users with sensitive skin
