95% of the time they were wonderfully comfortable to sleep on but if the heater went out or the tiniest leak happened ! The apartment complex I lived in at one time didn't allow them except in ground level units.

America as well. Every once in a while I still see them for sale. You useta could buy foam bb pellet refills to fluff your bag back up - probably still can since the bag is still around somewhat.
