I use a lighter bag in the summer, but soon will be changing over to my vintage Sundridge heat control bag. It's had a couple of repairs but still going strong.
I also have a Sundridge heat control mk2, a proper winter bag but it's massive!!!
I have the trakker peachskin bedchair cover, fleece lined. I have often just used that as a cover when it warm enough.
It's a great addition to a regular bag when it's getting frosty.

Still using my Sundridge Heat Control Bag aswell (when I get to go), only during the colder weather mind (usually early spring). It's got a burn hole in it and it's still toasty as. lol
Does my memory serve correct that a company (I'm thinking Gardner?) took it over after Sundridge stopped making them?

They would be no where near the same quality as they were.

True. You never know a mint one might turn up second hand.
I do wonder if it was as warm as I remember.

ive just put my trakker pertex bag on my bedchair tonight, the gardner carp duvet pissed me off last week not coming over my head..its wound me up for a good while tbh...the pertex bag although fleece lined feels really comfy and I cant remember why I stopped using it.

Great bags the original trakker pertex bags

I've still got and use my original Trakker cover, the heavy fleece pile one, still have the big snooze or kipper bag too, the one with the central zip on top was it, can't quite rem.
Also still have a British Army arctic mummy, again a very warm bag but mummy style isn't for me but I suppose a consideration to the OP if that doesn't bother you, pack down is reasonable and price should be good.
