Warm and Smelly?
I recently purchased 2 Marmot Sawtooth down bags from BackcountryStore.com to use at the Boundary Waters Canoe Area. I purchased a long for my son and a long wide for myself. I love everything about the bags EXCEPT the fact that the down appears to have a foul odor. It reminded me of the smell of a wet dog. The bags did not get wet and they were new and hadn't been slept in yet. Without the odor, I'd rate these a 5. Has anyone else experienced this and if so, what did you do about it?
Wet dog smell here too
I bought the Sawtooth in March '04 and used it in the southern Appalachians in April '04. It wasn't too humid, but as it got more humid overnight mine started to smell exactly like wet dog. I called Marmot and they said it should not do that - I just shipped it to them today for replacement or washing or whatever they care to do.
Used it at 15 degrees F
Toasty. I used this bag rated to 20 degrees F to sleep in my Vanagon in a parking lot in Big Bear California. My min temp registering thermometer recorded 15 degrees Fahrenheit. It was a little cool but I survived.
Very comfortable
The Marmot Sawtooth extrawide bags are very comfortable--my wife, 10month old son, and I slept in a zipped-together pair. My only complaint isthat the Sierras were too hot for them this summer, so I had to leave themopen on top.
Marmot Sawtooth
This bag is warm! I was in it to 25 degrees and while everyone else was shivering I was hot enough to open the zipper a little bit. It is very light and compressible. The smallest I've been able to get it is the size of a large grapefruit. There is only one thing that gives it a 4 instead of a 5 - it doesn't have a draft collar. I'm not sure why Marmot decided not to include one, so far it hasn't been a problem at all.
