Which DOWN bag for £150 or less?

When the wife asks what I want for my birthday, the answer will be obvious!

I want approx 1300 ducks or geese to pluck!

That sounds like a line from the two ronnies!

I've just sent my custom PHD bag back as they put the zip on the wrong side! I could have happily not bothered about it, but given the cost, well, I thought it was only right to get it fixed. They were very apologetic though

Loved my alpkit SH 600 but just too heavy and bulky for my plans next spring. I still have my alpkit AD700 for winter use.

Cheers KP.

I'm closer to a decision now.
I'll give the Big Lebowski a chance to change my mind but I think RAB and GoOutdoors will end up with my birthday money (that I'm gifting myself!).

You won't be disappointed with a Rab bag. My wife bought be my bag as an early joint Xmas and birthday pressie, otherwise I would have gone for a Rab myself.

I would recommend the Rab Atlas,great bag.
But wouldn't rule out the Alpkit bags great value for money.

I'd love one of these, but at 15 stone, 5'9" and a 47" inch chest no way will a 70cm wide bag fit me. It's like a sausage skin!

My PHD bag is almost comically big- its rated to 0 c, I can get in it with a down jacket on and still fit my 3 year old in with me! I love being able to turn over inside but not take the bag with me. I weighs just under 800g too!!!

I bought a Pipedream 400 a few months back. Rated comfort is -3, packs really small and weighs 750g. Really pleased with it, it's half the weight and pack size of my Snugpack Softie 3 with a 5 degree difference in performance for £150.

To conclude this thread of mine I just ordered a PHD Minim 300 in the PHD sale for £187 delivered. Will let you guys know how it performs when it arrives here.
Emma from PHD told me there are only 3 left in stock, now I just ordered one that means there are only two remaining so just a little tip there for you guys!
