Please give me confidence: TNF Superligh tView MessagesViewing posts 1 to 17 of 17 messages posted.
Help please! “Hi, I am wondering if anyone would like to share their experiences with TNF's Superlight sleeping bag. I am looking at buying one, but would have to import it (Australia) before I could see it for myself. The only TNF bag I have seen at the moment is the only one we currently sell at work, their 'Kilobag'. It is 600+ down, and looks good, but on close inspection seems fairly ordinary. Loft is not great, the seams are a bit rough in places, and the baffles seem as if they would create large cold spots right throughout the bag. Somebody please restore my confidence in TNF products! Adam” 8:47:07 AM 5/09/03 Lafuma... “makes a great light weight 600 down bag...mine cost 60 bucks...stuffs to the size of a 8" subway sandwich and weighs 14 oz. (I think).” 8:49:44 AM 5/09/03 “Thanks, but do you want to try again maybe?” 8:52:36 AM 5/09/03 “stikmon - details, please. Where did you get this item?” 9:17:52 AM 5/09/03 “I have the Superlight's lighter cousin, the Blue Kazoo. It's 6 or more years old and gets used very often. No sign of wearing out or getting less warm whatsoever. I love mine and would recommend it anyday.” 9:57:52 AM 5/09/03 “The Blue Kazoo is a 20 deg bag the superlight is a 0 deg. I have a Scout in my troop who has used a superlight for two years now and he loves it. Great bag. I have a superlight endurance -5 that I love. TNF makes great bags. Yes there are lighter ones out there but I've been happy with all of mine.” 10:18:30 AM 5/09/03 “ain't that what I said?” 10:50:03 AM 5/09/03 “Stikmon I don't know what your subway bag is but it ain't a TNF Superlight! From REI: "Stuff sack size: 9.5 x 18 inches. Average total weight 3 lbs. 13 oz. "” 6:30:21 PM 5/09/03 I have the 15+ Degree version of this bag “Mine weighs less than 3 lbs and it is the long-size. The 800 fill down is great! Stuffs down small and puffs up nicely! The 15 degree raiting is a little conservative but than again I am a hot sleeper. I found mine two years ago on Campmor for $160.00 8:32:01 PM 5/09/03 8:34:49 PM 5/09/03 “No Really Try This One ” 8:36:55 PM 5/09/03 8:38:41 PM 5/09/03 no, its a LA FUMA!!!! “made by our cousins to the NORTH, you know...canada. I acqired it in a very peculiar way at Wilderness Exchange unlimited in denver. I don't know if they have it anymore, but its killer. I love it! I wlso use it as a inner bag, on really REALLY potentially cold outings, inside my Wiggy's, (but don't tell wiggy that, he'd chew my head off). www.wildernessexchangeunlimited.com” 9:00:27 PM 5/09/03 “Why am I afriad of clickingon a link that reads: "wilder nes sex change unlimited.com" ??!?!” 10:00:15 PM 5/09/03 “You know I clicked that and now it's in my pull down menu. My wife was just on line getting her e mail and asked me what the HE[[ I had been looking at.” 11:52:28 PM 5/09/03 “I have one of these bags, but since you have been rude to my friend stikmon I will keep my opinion to myself.” 10:20:11 AM 5/10/03 “Well I apologise for my profane rudeness, without knowing what the hell 'lafuma' meant I thought stikmon was referring to the superlight. Many thanks to everyone for their thoughts and advice.” 2:56:02 AM 5/11/03
