Cedar Ridge Silverthorne 5 Sleeping Bag

This thing is thick and soft and very warm. I love the fabric outside on this. It's not as rugged as the description led me to believe, but still durable and quite soft. The zipper is big and high quality which is a huge plus in my opinion since I've dealt with a bad zipper on my last sleeping bag that I've had for the past 5 years. This one also has more room on the inside to move around a bit than what I'm used to. I have no negatives about this and would highly recommend. Read more

Finally a end to my endless search of a perfect sleeping bag! I have never been a proud owner to a new sleeping bag and the only one we had I have no idea where it even came from. My new job requires overnight stays and I decided now would be a good time to get a new sleeping bag. Granted I mainly needed it for inside a house, but realized it would also need to be used for various other extreme climate reasons. Being in the PNW region winter's always dip down low. We also go camping and a decent sleeping bag has been long over due. Being new to shopping for a warm quality sleeping bag I went with one that was very affordable and good reviews. I was extremely disappointed and returned it right away. Ended up choosing another one and it was okay but looked like someone literally had used it outside and was covered in dirt and debri. By than I was irritated and realized this wasn't going to be easy. I finally took a lot of time too really narrow down the best contenders and compare all aspects of them. That's how I arrived at this bag and it is exactly what I was wanting. High quality, durable, comfortable, not overly expensive, 5yr warranty and simple. Will be getting another one for the hubs so he doesn't steal mine. Read more

I had to get rid of my old favorite sleeping bag this year, and this was a great replacement. Both the inside and outside material are soft and comfortable, it was the perfect size for me, and it kept me warm for a week of overnight camping. I also like the color. If anything, I'd say it's super bulky and is difficult to pack and unpack. Heavy and would not recommend it for backpacking, or any camping trip that requires you to carry it a distance. Could be a pain to wash? Read more

Absolutely love this bag. Coldest I've used it in was 30 degree temps, and wearing thermals and a beanie in a hammock with this bag I was plenty warm and comfortable. This thing is massive and heavy. A back packing bag it isn't, what it is through and through though is a seriously awesome, heavy duty, oversized, well made bag. Read more

I bought 2 of these sleeping bags and have used both of them twice. I did some beach camping near Santa Barbara, California. I used the bags as more of a blanket there as the temperatures only got down to the 50s there. Honestly the bag was a little too warm, but I was admittedly using it in a warmer environment than I had purchased it for. I did try zipping the two bags together, which worked flawlessly. As a single bag there was plenty of room for me, 6'2" 250 lbs. This past weekend I used the bags in Sequoia National Park. The night time temp was in the 40s and the bags kept us plenty warm. I really appreciate the heavy duty construction. I spend about 20 days a year in a tent camping so a quality heavy duty bag is just what I needed. Read more

I was reluctant to write this review as there is a lot to like about this sleeping bag. It’s warm and comfortable, washes well, maybe a bit on the heavy side, but works for me. Interior liner not affixed to exterior. Fifteen months later, I’m noticing separation of stitching on interior liner. It now has three holes approximately two inches in length in different areas, which will likely increase over time. Bag has potential, but I shouldn’t have to repair holes after only 1.5 years.

I ordered two Cedar Ridge Silverthorne Plus 5-Degree Sleeping Bags. One bag developed an issue along the zipper at the bottom of the bag where the straps are attached. The stitching came loose, leaving a hole (as in a "feet sticking out of the bottom of the bag" kind of hole!) and allowing the compacting straps to come off. So, I had to repair the stitching by hand. It was not a difficult fix, but I would prefer not to repair a new $80.00 sleeping bag after only a few uses. Even with this glaring problem, my husband and I still LOVE our sleeping bags! They are big and thick with durable canvas on the outside and soft flannel on the inside. They are quite cozy and comfy. The zippers are high quality and easy to use. We would certainly purchase them again. Read more

Bought 3 of these for my boys. They love them. They are well made, warm and the inside is flannel. I took this bag on a hunting trip one time to try it out because they are so roomy. Low 20's and I had to unzip the bag a little to let some cool air in. Only down side is that when you unzip the bag entirely, re-zipping the bag at the corner is a kind of difficult. Read more
