Second time around
This is the second time we have purchased this sleeping bag. We wore out the last one and now the dogs sleep with it. Comfy, warm, and best of all it doesn't slide around. Coleman is always making excellent products and this is no exception . This is a above 20 degree sleeping bag that uses soft but tough cotton as the material, and a good zipper that actually works. As a bonus it makes a good mattress on hot nights. It is big enough that my 240 pound frame will fit comfy inside. Well worth the ...

Super Warm and Comfy!
We used this sleeping bag camping and it was much warmer than our older one that we use like a comforter. For a 40 degree evening it was absolutely perfect. My husband liked it for its warmth and so did I but I also enjoyed how soft the inside is. We are planning on buying another one to replace our older sleeping bag and then zipping them together for added comfort.

Nice bag but not great
The bag isn't as thick as you may think from looking at the image. Make sure you're sleeping on the beach or have a pad below it.
The way the bag folds up is odd-there's a partial pouch sown into the end of the bag, it doesnt end up fitting the whole bag once you unpack it for the first time, I would much rather the traditional straps at the end of the bag.

Love this old style bag
I've owned several sleeping bags and none have been as comfortable as this one. I've never been a fan of those synthetic fabrics. This bag is plenty warm, very comfortable and doesn't slip and slide like synthetics.

Perfect for it's purpose
I needed extra bedding for relatives and friends, some of whom would be sleeping on the floor. I didn't need a wilderness style sleeping bag; didn't need the lightweight, weather resistant qualities. I needed softness and warmth for comfort, which the cotton lining provided, and I liked the oversize quality for even more comfort.
This sleeping bag could be great for some kinds of camping as well as indoor use, it just wouldn't be a backpacker's choice because of its weight. It co...

GREAT bag for claustrophobic
This bag is so warm..so soft. You don't feel all squeezed in and you can slide all the way in if you are 5'4" like me :-) All cotton, all soft and a nice soft color. The only reason I give it 4 instead of 5 stars is I have to warn you: WASH AND DRY this bag before you use it. Much like sheets and comforters the fabric is treated with something smelly. You won't believe the difference once it comes out of the dryer. The bag is made in China so who knows what the smelly stuff is.

Thought it would be big enough for 2.
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) I thought this bag would be big enough for two people, given that it was marketed as a colossal (super King)! However, if you completely unzip it and lay it flat it will cover a queen size air mattress.

Excellent sleeping bags for tall people
Bought 3 of these for me and my 2 sons, all of us over 6'2. Nice and roomy, can pull up all the way to my face and even over my face a bit (I'm 6'3). Material inside is nice and soft, perfect to rub your toes on in the morning as you wake up. Zippers work well, easy to open the bag a bit in the morning to cool down a bit as the temperature warms up.

Amazing sleeping bag!
My husband and I bought two of these for a trip to Tidioute, PA for labor day weekend. We were advised that it does get cold at night there. They were right. It got in the 30's at the cabin that weekend. We were very warm and snuggly in these bags! We absolutely loved the flannel lining! And the padding was very thick for a sleeping bag. The size was perfect to pull over our head! They are somewhat bulky, so I wouldn't take it backpacking. Otherwise, These are awesome! They seem very well made. ...
