Great value

Easy to carry with you

A pocket for small things

Maris
Top Con

Isn’t designed for long term use

The bag is mediocre quality and is best suited for occasional usage not for serious camping enthusiasts. The stuffing will start to shift around after a while and the stitching will get loose after a couple of washing cycles.
Maris
Top Con

Not suitable for large persons

•••
It will fit best if you are under 6 feet and you don’t have a wide body as it’s only 6’4” long and only 2 feet wide
