Whats the life on a sleeping bag?
I was recently given a bag by a friend who said he paid £130 for it, used it about 2 or 3 times and then it went into storage. I couldnt find out anything about it online so I emailed the manufacturer (Vango) and they replied with;
"Hi Anon
The Q7 350 was only produced during 1999 / 2000 making your bag approx 15 years old.
From new the sleeping bag had a rating of -18Degrees C with a comfort / Suggested usage range of approx +12 DegreesC to -10Degrees C Giving the bag a 3 season rating. These ratings are from new and do not account for the natural breakdown and compression of the insulation material, so it is unlikely given the bags age that it will preform to these ratings now.

I'd like to use the bag for the first winter overnighters here in the uk that I have done in a long time. I cant afford a new bag so what do you guys think? The thing looks and feels brand new.
