Why it's worth it

The MalloMe is a simple, inexpensive bag rated for roughly 50°F to 77°F, and it's the one people buy in fours for a family. It weighs about three pounds, fits a six-foot adult, and wipes clean with a damp cloth or goes in the washing machine.

Most camping isn't cold. If your trips are summer weekends at a state park or a backyard sleepover, a 15°F mountaineering bag is a lot of money and bulk you'll never use. This bag is built for the mild end of the range, and owners who take it to campgrounds in shoulder-season weather report staying warm through the night without fuss.

The details are better than the price suggests. The zippers are double-sided, so you can vent from the foot end without opening the whole bag. There's a drawstring at the head you can cinch when the temperature drops, and the outer shell is water-resistant enough to shrug off dew and a spilled water bottle. It ships with a compression sack, which is more than some pricier bags include.
