Summer sleeping bag.

$60
Estimated Price

Reviews recommend this roomy rectangular sleeping bag for summer nights as cool as 40 degrees. Owners praise the L.L.Bean Camp Bag's construction and comfort, and say it holds up after repeated washings. The 5.6-pound weight is fine for car camping, and you can also get a longer size (*est. $70) and a size for kids age three to eleven (*est. $40). If you need a warmer bag, the Flannel-Lined bag also comes in a 20-degree version (*est. $70). The L.L.Bean sleeping bags come in six colors, and you can zip two together to make a double sleeping bag, or open a bag flat to use as a comforter. L.L.Bean provides an unlimited guarantee of satisfaction.

Double sleeping bag.

$70
Estimated Price

Owners give this flannel-lined sleeping bag good reviews, though it's heavier than two L.L.Bean sleeping bags zipped together, and carries a shorter five-year warranty. This budget Coleman double sleeping bag is rated down to 40 degrees for summer car camping, and it zips apart into two single sleeping bags when needed. If you usually camp as a couple and need a warmer double sleeping bag, we cover other well-reviewed options in our Full Report.

The North Face Cat's Meow
The North Face Cat's Meow

Three-season mummy bag.

$150
Estimated Price

The award-winning Cat's Meow mummy-style sleeping bag is recommended in more reviews than any other sleeping bag that uses synthetic insulation. The newest version uses even softer and lighter insulation – which holds its loft over long use, and keeps its warmth even when wet. Rated for temperatures as low as 20 degrees Fahrenheit, the Cat's Meow bag's mummy shape conserves body heat and lightens the weight to under three pounds – much lighter than a rectangular sleeping bag. A women's version is also available. The warranty is for one year.

Western Mountaineering UltraLite
Western Mountaineering UltraLite

Ultralight three-season mummy bag.

$360
Estimated Price

It's a lot more expensive than The North Face Cat's Meow, but here, you're spending more for down fill -- which minimizes weight. The whole Western Mountaineering mummy bag weighs only 1 lb. 10 oz. -- a full pound less than the cheaper Cat's Meow (above). Reviews also praise the Western Mountaineering down sleeping bag for its superior construction. It compresses more than a sleeping bag with synthetic fill, and though down loses most of its warmth when wet, the UltraLite has a water-repellent but breathable cover. A full-length two-way zipper makes it easy to ventilate on warmer nights – or to pair for a double sleeping bag. The lifetime guarantee covers any defects.

Winter sleeping bag.

$400
Estimated Price

Comparison tests confirm that this award-winning winter sleeping bag is comfortable down to zero degrees F. At 2 lbs. 9 oz., it's lighter than most winter sleeping bags, achieved by using one half-length zipper and making only the ends of the bag water-repellent – where the sleeper is apt to touch a wet tent. A women's version is also available. The lifetime warranty covers any defects.

Kids' sleeping bag.

$60
Estimated Price

Parents praise this three-season The North Face sleeping bag for kids ages three to eleven (up to five feet tall), saying kids love the glow-in-the-dark zipper pulls and cozy flannel lining. It's a mummy-shaped bag rated down to 20 degrees, with top-rated synthetic insulation that stays warm even when wet, and holds its loft over years of use. At just over two pounds, it's also lighter than most kids' sleeping bags – important if a parent will be backpacking it. For safety there are no cords or elastic near the child's head. The warranty is for one year.
