Weighing just 2.9 pounds for a size long, the Galactic is very lightweight among the rectangular, traditional car-camping models. It’s not exactly built for backpacking, but it also packs down small enough that we would certainly consider it for short hike-in campsites if we didn’t have another option. Finally, the Kelty Galactic 30 is a more basic bag that offers a stand-out feature worth mentioning. The Galactic’s 550-down insulation sets it apart from the other bags on our list. Our two double-person bags scored almost evenly in this metric.
It’s compact, and keeps you warm and comfortable throughout the night. It has ClimaTech fiber for added warmth, comfort, and durability. I purchased this sleeping bag for warm weather camping trips at the local lake. For fifteen dollars I wasn’t expecting (or needing) anything that would stand up to freezing weather. Unfortunately the workmanship was more than a little upsetting, even for that price.
Too bad the buyer at Walmart has gone to sleep on quality control on this product. Of the two-person bags we tested, the Nemo Jazz 30 Double was our favorite for its plush comfort, followed closely by the Kelty Tru.Comfort. ozark trail sleeping bag Both bags are similar in design, but in the end, we simply preferred the Nemo’s interior and exterior fabrics over the Kelty. Nice Ozark Trail Warmfoot 75” by 33” Polyester fiber batting insulation.
While neither bag matched the performances of our top three, both are still quite cozy and are certainly warm enough for three seasons. I notice this isn’t the first review with this complaint. The zipper broke on my warm weather bag on the second night out. Too bad too because overall I’ve had good luck with Ozark Trail stuff.
While a small packed size is nice, we ascribed the least importance to this metric. From its rugged outer shell to its warm fleece center quilt, the Teton Sports Polara 3-in-1 is a stylish interchangeable bag that offers a wide range of customizable warmth. Each piece of the Polara is a separate and unique layer that can be added, removed, or interchanged, allowing it to be multiple bags in one. This layering system provides options, letting campers customize their warmth needs in different climates, temperatures, and seasons.
