5 Exped Tele Compression Bag Review

Reviewer: David Williment, Menston Ilkley   (24-4-2012)

I bought this bag for a round the world motorcycle trip. Space is a priorty for me and this bag allows me to compress my clothes into the smallest space and keeps them dry too. Highly recommended.

I purchased this bag to compress and keep my sleeping bag dry it being of 850 fill power down the need for compression straps is vital. This bag is brilliant as it allows me to save weight by have just one bag instead on a dry bag and the provided compression sack.

I really like this product and if I was to have one dig at it it would be that the bag is not submersible, which is now printed clearly on the packaging but by its lightweight nature there has to be some sacrifices. On the whole though I would recommend this product for use on the hills and climbing.

I bought this bag for my sleeping bag as I lost the stuff sack. I don’t see why all sleeping bags don’t come with a bag like this as it is such an essential bag for any mountain day. Simply stuff your sleeping bag into it , another thing that it works well for are a down jacket or clothes.

With the valve you are able to get it much smaller than you would in a normal dry bag. I’ve never had a problem with the valve, you might be worried about how water tight the bag is. I’ve had it in the pouring rain and sea kayaking and never had to sleep in a wet sleeping bag.

I have used these for down jackets and sleeping bags.
They get the size of the contents down to an extent with the compression straps and then seal well keeping your precious feathers dry for the next evening. They also provide good protection from spin drift in winter.
The air valve works to an extent if you have something that is too small for the bag but otherwise is not of much valve.
It is not suitable for use if you think you bag is going to get submerged e.g. when canoeing however, in this situation I still keep my sleeping bag in this bag but put it inside another tougher waterproof bag.
Great for bulky things that need to be kept dry.
