Question Sleeping Bag

If I buy a sleeping bag suitable for -10C. Can I use it at temperatures above 0C?

Sure, but you might get too warm and have to open the sides. You can always use it like a quilt!

You deff can. The rating tells you that it will keep you warm up until -10C and it will work for any temps above that as well. But like wonderwoman said you might get hot if its not that cold.

You don't have to use to like a quilt, just sleep naked inside.
