Does anyone have experience or an opinion on the Feathered Friends Flicka quilt bags? Do they ever go on sale?

I just got one a couple weeks or so ago. I have only spent 5 – 7 nights or so in it so I can't comment a great deal. I have a 20 degree, the lowest it has been is 24 and 28 when I've been out. It's a pretty tight fit on me and works best back sleeping vs side sleeping if zipped up.

I'm in the same boat as Kevin – I have the 20 degree version and have been able to use it around 10 nights or so with lowest temperatures in the low-mid 20s.

Pros:

Flexibility – I love being able to open it up completely or close it up like a hoodless bag.

Footbox – does an excellent job of sealing shut, but can be opened up when you need it.

Fabric and finish is excellent.

Cons:

I've found that the zipper on mine can be a little sticky with the overlapping piece of the bag that serves as a passive draft tube.

Overall I'm very happy with it as it solves most of the problems I had with traditional quilts or bags. I'm 5'9 and 160 lbs, so that fit is good for me as a side sleeper, but can see how it might be a bit too slim for larger folks.
