Great emergency bivy
This bivy is waterproof and incredibly small/lightweight. It is rather fragile and I would not recommend this for long term camping. I purchased this bivy to throw in my pack when going for a summit bid. Basically, it's my backup plan. I was blown away by how small this bivy is in its bag. It is literally a 3 across and ways nothing! There is no reason not to have this item in your pack when weight is a consideration...and for this price, in can be considered disposable, which is probably good since it is very difficult to get the bivy bag into its bag.

Great Emergency Item Everyone Should Have
This blanket comes packed so small and is so lightweight that it should be a must-have item on every outing. I purchased it for my son for Boy Scout camping as a just in case item and he used it on the very next trip as the temperature dropped way below the 40 degree rating of his sleeping bag. I was able to re-pack it so it can be a multi-use item. I am thinking of also purchasing them for our family cars as emergency items.

Perfectly Compact
The difficult part of reviewing this product is I am looking forward to 'not' using this product. I rated it "good" because I have not actually used it, but do appreciate everything I have seen so far. The unit comes compact, rolled in a bag and ready to drop in your daypack or emergency kit. Like most products like this, I anticipate it to me noisy, but that is yet to be seen. It is very light. What is nice is this does have its own bag to store it in so if you do use it, you can stuff it somewhere when you are done.
