Zenbivy - Core Bed

I’ll be the dissenter - I hated my Nemo Forte 20 (W’s long). We’re the same height and around the same weight and I found it too narrow in the shoulders and despite the spoon shape, I could not rotisserie comfortably. I didn’t find it warm, either, and experienced huge cold spots down the side opposite the zipper on a 35° night. I replaced it on a whim with a Zenbivy core bed and love it. The sheet keeps the quilt in place while I spin and the pillow pocket lets me throw my arms up while keeping them covered. The quilt is wide at the top and can tuck around me like a regular comforter. Super warm too.

I got a zenbivy.

I had an older REI mummy sack. I just got the core bed because I didn’t want to spend too much if I didn’t like it. Then I upgraded the quilt to the down in the pre thanksgiving sale this year.

Any thermarest bag is a good start and I've just tried out the ZenBivy and so far absolutely love it. Would also say that a good sleeping mat goes a long way to keep you warm. You could have the best bag for the cold but a weak mat can undo all the work of a good bag!

I have a zenbivy and I love it. Don’t know what their lowest temp rated bag is though

Agreed. As a thrashing side sleeper this bag has been a godsend. It’s super versatile

This is pretty compelling tbh. 1.08kg and packs down to 20cmx20xm. 850 treated down. I’d personally go for a Zenbivy, but honestly I don’t think this looks bad.

I have a disco and its pretty good used it like a quilt so often I ended up going for a quilt, Specifically a zenbivy, its also good, I set it up with one side fixed to the sheet and the other mostly free. Like sleeping in a bed.

I had a SD Cloud 20 and that was hard enough to wriggle in and out of, I can imagine these being much worse and would probably feel claustrophobic. This is why I think the Zenbivy system excels- no draughts, freedom of a quilt etc. problem is the ultralight bed is very expensive and the light bed fairly heavy for this sub.

Zenbivy - best of both worlds! I have the 10f and 25f light beds and they're super comfortable.

Zenbivy is the best of both worlds. Most comfortable camp sleep system ever IMO.

Zenbivy all the way. I’m a major side sleeper. Makes a huge difference in a good nights sleep!

Zenbivy. Especially if you’re anything but a back sleeper.

Second the Zenbivy suggestion. It's a great sleep system.
