Why should you trust us?
Unlike a lot of other review sites online that create listicles without ever having laid eyes on (let alone used or tested) the sleeping bags in question, we hold physical stock allowing us to thoroughly review and test each model. We also conduct customer surveys throughout the year to get feedback from people who have purchased, regularly use and have a long-term insight into reliability and performance, which also forms part of our selection process. Our reputation is extremely important to us and our list is updated throughout the year as and when we test new models and/or get additional feedback from end users.
