Review on Stay Warm And Comfy On Your Next Camping Trip With The Kelty Tuck Synthetic Mummy Sleeping Bag - 2020 Edition by Jeff Perez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Kept me warm in 40 degree night

I camped in Southern California recently and the nights were in the low to mid forties. This bag kept me warm in a 3 season tent and met my expectations for car camping. I am older and need extra warmth during the cold nights. I wore a base layer for comfort and snuggled very nicely. I am 5'8" and weigh 155 lbs. This bag might be a tight fit for someone 5'10" or taller. The bag packs down to a reasonable size in the stuff sack, but it is not a compression sack; however, I was not backpacking so it was not a problem. If you are a backpacker and want something small and light, then this may not be the best choice. I found the hood less useful and wore a wool cap instead opting to use the hood on top of a small pillow for added height; worked out well. Good color combination if that is important to you. All in all, a very good choice for me, and I can recommend it to anyone who is looking for a warm bag during early spring or fall camping with temps in the low 40s. For winter camping at freezing temperatures, then of course you will need a zero degree bag. For summer, you are better off with a quilt or 40 degree bag.

Pros
  • With its 2020 edition, this sleeping bag features improved insulation and better heat retention, ensuring that you can get a good night's sleep even in the coldest of temperatures
Cons
  • May not be as comfortable as a traditional rectangular sleeping bag
