jh92 Posted April 15, 2017 Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 I'm trying to find a relatively cheap sleeping bag for my dad to use but with all these different ones on the market I don't have a clue what's good etc, any thoughts on what he should look at? I've seen a few of them ngt 4 season ones on eBay for around £50 but I have no idea what their quality is like lol. Any advice would be great thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bivvystreet Posted April 15, 2017 Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 cyprinus magmatex was well regarded when you could find one but think they are nearer to a £100 these days, may get one a bit cheaper with a bid on ebay jh92 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harpz_31 Posted April 15, 2017 Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 got my self a avid benchmark x sleeping bag a few months ago for just £116 (standard size bag is about £106) and so far its kept me toasty warm in temps down to zero plus the inside zips out for summer use. well worth the cash if you plan on fishing all year round jh92 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have the wychwood morpheus extreme 5 sleeping bag which I brought to fit in my trakker bed chair when folded up the cyprinus is a better bag for colder conditions (very cold) and you can split it down for warmer weather you won't go wrong with the magmatex.
