Are these closed off bags like sleeping bags. Half say it's just a blanket and half says it's a closed bag.

it's a single layer sheet, more metallic on one side, plenty of noise with movement, like crinkled tin foil; will drive the cat crazy.I use a mylar poncho while sitting in front of my dest computer; fax machine, etc. for RF / EMF sensitivity. I purchased at emfself.

This was just a large sheet, DEFINITELY NOT CLOSED OFF like sleeping bags. I purchased this in November 2014 and was disappointed.

Hi Mark - It's a closed bag like a sleeping bag - definitely not just a blanket. We tried them for an outdoor swim meet to keep warm between my races. Problem was, the silver came off and my son ended up looking like the tin man!

The bags have a Ziploc type top. You then vacuum out the air. It works great for me, but I have had one bag that would not vacuum seal. Probably a tiny hole in it some where. Figured it was a factory defect which will happen.

If you like being super warm when you sleep sure! I used it this past summer in 50degree at night temps and was comfortable. ..I'm also the type that can't sleep with socks on and like it to be just a bit nippy when I sleep....That being said it's by no means a heavy sleeping bag - I purchased a different coleman for my husband with same temperature ratings and his is warmer/thicker. ..makes no sense but it it what it is!.....To thin it out a little maybe wash it a half dozen times before you use it?

I have only had them for a short time(2 months). The mailed blankets in some and they did not leak. The ones I am currently using have not leaked. I just had one new one rip apart when I tried to close it. The rest I am using are working fine.

Hahaha this bag is a walking sleeping bag. You may be thinking of some thing else.

It's Holofill. The Army hasn't used down since the early 1960s. Its a very warm, extremely well made sleeping bag. I reccomend getting the light weight patrol bag as well. Theyre inexpensive, and the two bags (Green patrol bag and black intermediate cold bag) are designed to be put together to make an arctic bag, or be used separately depending on your needs. WELL WORTH GETTING!! (I have 8 yrs Army infantry experience)

It's rated as a light weight bag. At cold temps the bag will not be enough to keep warmth. We use for sleepovers but our home has heat and air.

They are folded and they shouldn't be. The bags should be rolled. We received ours and you can see daylight through the inside of the bag on the fold. I will be contacting the seller. Don't get me wrong. The bags are good material. They just need to be shipped differently.

No this cannot be used as two sleeping bags. Think of it as one giant sleeping bag that had two pillows sewn on top.

I'm not entirely sure. We have two zipped together and its huge. Probably 3 ft by a foot and a half. When they were rolled up individually I just remember thinking it was the biggest sleeping bag I had ever seen. I love them, tho. They are super warm and cushy. Worth it if you are car camping.

Yes, my wife and I have two of these, (one LH and one RH) and we zip them together all the time. As with most Mummy bags, the zipper does not go all the way to the bottom of the bags, so the foot boxes are separated. We use them for camping trips and are very happy with these sleeping bags. We have the black, gray, and yellow version of the bags. I believe the latest version is blue, I am not sure if anything has changed with the zipper system and the ability to zip the blue bags together, but I can say that we are able to zip our bags together.

Yes, more like a duck canvas. If you're looking for thick and durable. You will be happy. And it's extremely warm. I Purchased 8 of them. They are tough, well built sleeping bags

I have not used these bags for traveling, but have used them to store my granddaughters clothes as she outgrows them. They are not vacuum bags, just large Ziploc bags. They do not swell if they open. They just are open like a plain Ziploc bag. They are a little difficult to get zipped since they are so large. It takes a few minutes of getting the zipper aligned. It works best if you don't try to overload them.

2 warmers to a package. I've heard you can seal a warmer in a zip lock bag to keep it from air, but have never tried it.

When I think of a sleeping bag, I think camping. This is not meant for outdoor/tent sleeping. It is basically a comforter that zippers closed. I think they call it a nap mat because it comes in a little "back pack"/sack that can be carried along to family/friends/school for a nap.

The ones I received at the time have no seal option. At one end, one side of the bag is about 1 3/4" longer than the other so it can be folded over, but there is no seal included. You must apply your own type of seal; i.e. tape or perhaps heat if you have it.

bottom edge sewn closed; judging by some of the other answers, though, people have received bags that aren't sewn together at the bottom. There must be two different types.
