A really warm bag. On a winter hike, I slept in this tent with a merino wool inner bag at something closer to -20 degrees below zero for one night, and the bag served its purpose perfectly. Unfortunately, my sleeping pad solution wasn't quite adequate for sleeping in that temperature, so I got cold on my back, but the bag itself worked very well. However, you should remember to get a sleeping pad with a sufficient R-value to accompany this, if you want to get a good night's sleep on winter trips.

After the first 10 nights of sleeping, it seems like a good and high-quality sleeping bag. Very soft and comfortable to sleep on. It's warm, I haven't gotten to the freezing temperatures yet to try if I can keep my promise. The zippers are good and the padding on the collar provides extra warmth.

The size is just fine, the 176/85 fits quite well, if you like a loose bag, you should still keep searching.
It seems to get wet more easily than my other down bags (a puff or other coating on the outer fabric impairs breathability - even a mystery ...), but dries even faster.

Amazing sleeping bag, very well made and super warm and comfortable in varying weather. Just as expected from Rab.

I get a bag in a cloth shed for accommodation. During the trip, the frost was about -23 degrees at night and was very accurate. Of course, there was a seabed, wool socks, a sweater, a beanie and gloves on. The bag warmed up relatively quickly and the air tightening straps allowed the air vent to be adjusted to fit. The down warmed up well, the other night I slept inside, when I used the bag as a blanket. Winter nights should be made quite infrequently, but for a hiking family of five, a good freezer bag is definitely a long-term investment to be used for. The down-filled bag takes up a lot of space even when packed in a compression bag. This is a good consideration for quantity planning.

High-quality bag. It is well focused to sleep at least +5 degrees, in winter colder conditions are tested. Comes with a large storage bag and a canoe bag-style carrying bag that is airtight and would look waterproof. Zipper with small teeth, time will tell how it lasts.

Experiences from the bag only below -15 frosts, but looks good. The included dry bag type protective bag is quite spacious for packing in the cold, but quite space consuming compared to the packing capacity of the sleeping bag. With the compression bag, the sleeping bag goes into a small space. A practical storage bag was also included. While sleeping in the comb, I noticed that the zipper pull was phosphorized.
Now came the first real frosts. The bag values are probably shown on the pages incorrectly, they probably have Rab Ascent 900 bag values, not this 1100 bag. The maintenance could review and comment even if I am wrong about this.
It was now about 20 degrees below zero and it looks like a bag has been made for those coils. There was no more sweat, the wind in the shed the first night and it was a bit cool, but not actually frozen. The tent night was a little colder and a little warmer. I’m not the best-focused type, but up to 20 degrees frost is great for me. For a very detailed colder.
Hugely spacious, especially when I have that longer one (it’s unnecessarily big) but very functional. When you turn the side, the bag follows nicely. The hood is well designed when tightened really tight, the breathing hole stays really well in the right place. Many things have been done well here.
The first night I tried it, that is, a shark bag that would hold up to about 10 degrees below zero and that would continue where the previous one ended. For I sleep in a trough on a zero surface i.e. this should be able to sleep in zero comfortably. No sight hit, the bag is just too hot for that weather. The thermal collar was open, the hood reduced slightly, but by no means closed. I woke up at night with sweat wet, short leggings on my leg. The wool socks had to be taken off as soon as they went into the bag. At night there was zero weather, the car windows had to be plastered.
Let's see when winter comes to what this is enough then when winter comes properly.
