These guides assume you sleep outdoors on the ground or in a hammock, not in a cabin with a mattress. We show the temperature rating or R-value, the packed size, and the weight for each pick, taken from the maker's own spec sheet. Owner-review themes cover how a pad or bag performs after a few nights, in the reviewer's own words.
