FAQs

What are the temperature ratings for this sleeping bag?

The Vango Stellar Double sleeping bag has the following independently tested temperature ratings: Comfort: 4°, Limit: -1°, Extreme: -16°, Suggested Min Usage: 10°, Suggested Max Usage: 20°.

Can this sleeping bag be used by one person?

Yes, while designed for two, its generous dimensions and square shape allow a single person to use it comfortably for extra space.

What is Grade A Quality Fill?

Grade A Quality Fill refers to a superior fiber fill designed to be durable, warm, lightweight, and soft, while maintaining its loft and resilience over time.

How do I clean the sleeping bag?

It is recommended to wash the sleeping bag according to the care label instructions, typically on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Always ensure zippers are closed. Air dry completely and avoid tumble drying.

What is the weight and packed size of the Stellar Double?

The Vango Stellar Double sleeping bag weighs 3.6kg and has a packed size of 55.0cm x ø30.0cm.

Is this sleeping bag suitable for very cold winter camping?

With a limit rating of -1°C and an extreme rating of -16°C, it is best suited for three-season use (spring, summer, autumn). For extreme winter conditions, a bag with a lower temperature rating would be more appropriate.

What does the Insulated Zip Baffle do?

The Insulated Zip Baffle runs along the length of the zipper to help retain heat inside the sleeping bag and prevent cold spots from forming along the zip closure.

Troubleshooting

Sleeping bag not as warm as expected.

Ensure all zippers are fully closed and the hood drawcord is tightened. Check for any gaps or potential cold spots. The sleeping bag's performance can also be influenced by the temperature of the ground; use a good quality sleeping mat. Ensure the bag is fully lofted.

Zipper snags or is difficult to operate.

Use the Zip Guard feature to prevent snagging. If the zipper is stiff, try gently wiggling it. Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth. Clean and lubricate the zipper with a silicone-based lubricant if necessary.

Sleeping bag feels damp or loses loft.

This can happen in humid conditions. Ensure the bag is thoroughly dried after each use. Store the sleeping bag in a dry environment. The ThermoLock Insulation is designed to retain warmth even in damp conditions, but complete drying is essential for optimal performance.

Difficulty packing the sleeping bag into its stuffsack.

Loosely stuff the bag into the sack rather than rolling it tightly. Start with the foot end and work towards the head. Ensure the bag is completely dry before packing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Spacious double size offers comfort and freedom of movement.
  • Grade A Quality Fill provides excellent warmth and a lightweight feel.
  • Durable Polair® shell and lining are easy to clean and maintain.
  • Independent temperature testing ensures reliable performance ratings.
  • Versatile auto-lock two-way zip allows for adjustable ventilation.
  • Suitable for three-season use, offering good versatility.

Cons

  • At 3.6kg, it is heavier than many single sleeping bags, which may be a factor for minimalist campers.

  • Requires a larger pack size (55.0 x ø30.0cm) due to its size and fill.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Unpack the Vango Stellar Double sleeping bag from its stuffsack. For immediate use, simply unroll it. If converting from two single bags (if applicable), refer to specific instructions provided with the product.

Compatibility:

Care:

  • Washing: Wash according to care label instructions, typically on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Ensure zippers are closed before washing.
  • Drying: Air dry completely, preferably by hanging on hanging loops. Avoid direct heat or tumble drying, as this can damage the fill.
  • Storage: Store loosely in its stuffsack or a larger breathable bag in a dry place to maintain loft and prevent moisture buildup. Avoid storing compressed for extended periods.
