TETON Sports Celsius XL Sleeping Bag: Stay Warm and Cozy in Temperatures Down to 0°F

Angi Parrish: Well, went to Coracle (Local Burning Man event) and it was predicted to be 21 degrees F the first night of the event and 28 degree F the second. I was planning ahead and bought this bag (delivered 2 days before the event). I seemed heavy and the multiple bands and clips on it sort of worried me....what kind of monster did this stuff sack work so hard to contain? It was like one of those magicians cans where stuff keeps coming out forever when I pulled it open to use it on it's maiden voyage. It was fluffy. Further, This bag handled the low temepratures very well! I was warm and cozy both nights. I used it with a Coleman XL cot and it fit great, nothing hanging off. The only thing I would have asked for was a more flannel type feel (fuzzy) to the inside fabric while sleeping.
As my weekend came to an end, it was time to put this thing back in the stuff sack....much easier said than done. I folded it, rolled it tightly and tried to neatly put it back in the stuff sack. After trying to fit the stuff sack around the neatly folded end of squished and rolled bag, holding the sleeping bag with my knees on the floor of the tent. using both hands to maneuver the edges of the stuff sack...

Fredy: I got this to camp/hike, I know it will keep me warm but as you know weight matters, every pound and even if I hang this from my pack it’s just too much. It’s unfortunate because it’s almost compact enough, I will have to figure out how to bring this thing into the woods.

If you care about weight and size this may not be for you

Wenda: They should have extended the zipper so you could open the bag completely and lay it flat, which is something that I need to do at times. Otherwise it's very warm and worth the money. I really like the flannel lining.

Erin Johnson: This is an incredible sleeping bag! I just retired my first one, which I had for years, and used daily while traveling far and wide (the sleeping bag just got too dirty from overuse in the outdoors). Amazingly durable and thick, this sleeping bag is roomy, does not smell like chemicals, has a great zipper, is very soft and has lots of poofy padding.

It kept me warm on the coldest of nights in negative temp winters, and by unzipping it, and using as a "burrito blanket" was nicely cool in the summer. It is so thick, you can even use it as a mattress pad for extra cushion in various circumstances.

I am in love with these sleeping bags, and Teton is by far the best brand of sleeping bag I have encountered to date. They parallel and exceed in quality the thick, super warm, rugged and durable vintage sleeping bags I remember from camping trips as a kid. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! EXTREMELY WARM + high quality materials. The bag is water resistant, though not waterproof, so perhaps get a tent or tarp. i am drifting off to sleep in my Teton sleeping bag as I write this review... Goodnight! Zzzzz...

Randal: They needed to go about 10% bigger on the stuff sack.

I have the Altos Sport mummy bag -18, and the Celsius XL -18, and I have no issues getting them back in their bags. I am pretty good at it.

I could barely get the -32 back in, and it took 2 days of stuffing... it's still not all the way in. I put the opening up, so it could exit air, but it's still so tight. I can't believe the sack even stood up to the stuffing without blowing.

Other than that, it's just a ridiculous sleeping bag, weighs 10 lbs, and I will hopefully never be in temps near -32c.
But the bag was on sale for less than a crappy bag, so now I own this...

It will be a great buy, if I lose power this winter, and at the same time my city gets about 15c colder than the record...

Teton makes great stuff. I use my -18 bag a fair bit, and I have never even needed to zip it up. It's like it's own bed, and the -32 one more so. So much padding.

It's what most people envision when they think about a really over the top comfy warm big sleeping bag. Fuzzy, warm, you want to be in it. when it gets dark and cool.

I use a 4man Geertop tent and a 2man Marmot Crane tent. You should...

Nathan B.: I have a love/hate relationship with this bag that the "3 star" rating I gave it does not capture. Nothing about it is average for me.

First, the fantastic!

-*incredibly* warm, thanks to the materials and the draft tubes

-very comfortable

-great value

And now the negatives:

-my legs actually get hot in this bag to the point where I wake up. It would be awesome if this manufacturer added vents that could be opened or closed so that one's legs don't have to overheat

-I had some zipper trouble with my bag. For a number of nights, it kept catching on the fabric. Several times I woke up in the night and was not able to open the zipper without great difficulty. The last time, I just brute forced it, and you can guess the result: a gaping hole in the fabric. Fortunately, I am getting a free replacement. Hopefully the bag that comes tomorrow won't have this zipper problem, and I will also take more care with it.

-the last negative is actually a positive: the bag is long! I hate it when bag manufacturers make a bag that is 191 cm and then say "fits up to 6'2"!" As someone who is 6', I can honestly tell you: no, they don't. This bag,...

SMP: I am a large guy, 6' 290lbs, and normal sleeping bags are too small for me. I bought the XL -25F bag with the hope that it would meet these four requirements:
1) Be large enough to turn my body over inside the bag (without turning over the bag itself).
2) Sleep comfortably with my entire body inside the bag, including my arms.
3) Be warm enough to sleep in a tent at 0F +
4) Be small/light enough to attach to a backpack

Unfortunately, I think the sleeping back is too bulky and heavy for any serious backpacking trip. But after using this bag for a while, I've come to realization that's not the fault of this bag - that's more a matter of me not being able to fit in a normal size bag. I think it's unrealistic to expect a manufacturer to make a sleeping big enough to fit me in comfortably and also make it light and warm enough for backpacking in really cold weather.

Once I accepted that reality, I came to appreciate even more how well this bag meets the other three requirements. It's plenty big for me. I can flip my entire body over inside of it without taking my arms out and avoid getting the bag and my clothes all twisted up. It's long enough to fit my...
