Good review. I've got the 4 man version and used it whilst waiting for mountain rescue once. We (somehow) squeezed 4 of us in, one of us was the casualty and laid down. It was beyond "snug." More like a game of twister 😁 So, yeah, I'd always go a "size up" when deciding on what to buy. They are good for having a break out of the weather as well, although I had to ban egg sandwiches 😂
Yes, the vent hole also acts as a bag so there's no seperate bag to lose in the storm/wind. It's a good bit of kit, much warmer than I was expecting, could be a real life saver if someone was injured and getting cold on a mountain. I had to loosen it after a few minutes as I was sweating.

Daniel, it was great to bump onto you today on Snowdon. Keep up the good work, mate, it's greatly appreciated
Thank you! Hope you had a great day, sore legs here but looking forward to some more hiking and scrambling soon :-)
Good real world review Daniel.
Brilliant, I just bought 1 at a car boot sale for £2!🙂
Great review man...a bit of a lifesaver for £30 👌🏾
Found this really useful, I’d seen these around and wondered how effective they’d be, now i know, definitely worth getting and they’re inexpensive
Glad it was helpful!
Proper that is 👍
When you've finished using it, it disappears up its own sphincter.

Good to see reviews. I've got the rab 2 Silbothy ultralight. Probably a good idea to keep it vented we'll to prevent too much condensation 🏕️🇨🇦
