Tru.Comfort Doublewide Sleeping Bag: 20F Synthetic

Great car camping bag for couples

We're super glad we upgraded to this sleeping bag for our car camping trips in the White Mountains. My partner and I also have backpacking bags, but decided the space saving advantages weren't a top priority when we're staying at state parks. If you have room in your vehicle, it's definitely worth the swap. The packed size of this bag in the stuff sack is massive though - much larger than the tent we use. A compression sack might help a little. We love how comfy this is, and the hood that fits bed pillows is awesome. I am a side sleeper and my partner is a stomach sleeper, so this is a huge improvement for getting better sleep. The attached blankets ensure no drafts if someone is a blanket hog.

Love the versatility

My partner and I recently bought this for car camping. Love the versatility enabling each side to tailor their own temperature (take off the blanket, stick your feet out the bottom, etc). Really wish the two blankets within had a way of connecting, as we found during the night they can slip off, which left me a bit cold, but as long as I had it snug, it worked and I was comfortable, and we loved that we could cuddle throughout the night. We've only used it for 3 nights, with the lowest at ~45F. It took up the entire footprint of my 2 person backpacking tent and feels a bit silly, but is a luxury and we are looking forward to using it more!

Best sleeping bag ever

This this is awesome! My boyfriend is 6ft 4 and has PLENTY of room. We love the double blanket situation and it’s so warm and cozy. The feel flap is a game changer and also allows our dogs to get some snuggling too.

my wife an I used this in ~35d and windy weather in a 3 season tent, stayed warm and was large enough to roll over and not bother each others sleep. Paired with the Kush Air Bed (KELO0A7-CASROC-QUE) and had one of the best nights sleep. I highly recommend this for a 2 person bag. It is large when packed away, but you can sleep together with your partner.

MY FAVORITE SLEEPING BAG SO FAR!

My partner and I loved this sleeping bag. It rained one of the nights that we went camping and it kept us dry and super warm, even when our tent got a little wet. My favorite thing about it was the head because I liked being under it to keep the heat in. I also enjoyed the separate blanket that’s underneath because I get hot easily while my partner doesn’t, so it was nice to have that separation. However, I agree that there could’ve been an attachment for the pieces to come together for those who prefer to have that choice. But we just improvised and put a warm blanket inside. Overall I’d rate it a solid 9/10.

Good, not great.

As a two-person sleeping bag under $200, I recommend it. That said, they missed a few easy improvements that would have made it so much better. Here is some free advice, Kelty. The internal blankets are nice, but they fall off easily. Why not include a way to connect them together on colder nights? It would also be nice to have a way to sinch up the bag around the shoulders with some form of draw-string. Currently, the only way to keep cold drafts from coming in is to stuff jackets in the large spaces around the shoulder area. I will be adding my own velcro to attach the blankets but even with this improvement, this bag has no business existing below 35 degrees F for most people.

Ordered this from Backcountry and used it over the past week in Kentucky where it was in the low 40s at night and was really impressed. It was warm - almost too warm at those temperatures. It's my first time using a double sleeping bag and I love that there was a bit of room to move around even with my partner in, and it's not as constricted as a regular mum bag. I thought the internal flaps would be awkward but they worked really well, I wrapped them around myself and they stayed in place all night. Highly recommend this sleeping bag.

Love this thing!!!

I've been living in my truck camper with my 3 dogs for the last 20 months. We're on our second winter in Utah and this thing has been wonderful. All four of us snuggle in the bag every winter night. Have also been backpacking with it, which isn't ideal as it's pretty bulky, but we made it work by strapping to the outside of our 55l pack and it worked well keeping us all snug as a bug in the mountains, mid summer, mind you. Definitely a great car camping with your significant other or pets kind of bag.

Such a great sleeping bag

This was a perfect addition to our camping gear. We took it car camping in the Tetons and it was spacious and so warm! Temps got down to the 20s at night and we were very comfortable(until I had to get out lol). The double blankets can be a little awkward to get situated, but in the morning I found myself completely wrapped up in it and cozy. I am 5'10 and plus size, my partner is 'average' size. We had plenty of room!

Ski area is 1.5 hours away. Round trips are doable but expensive for muti-day pow shots. Motels are either ancient or expensive. Solution? Take my dwelling with me. A trailer would be nice - if it was four-season, off-road/winter-road capable. Again, expensive. Truck-tent was my solution. Need a decent 3-season bag (we can always add layers). Solution? Kelty?s Tru.Comfort Doublewide. I love it - wife loves it. Problem solved!
