The REI Co-op Superlight Bivy blurs the line between being an ultralight single person tent and a simple bivy sack. We found it to be the most spacious of all bivys tested in this review (when it was fully staked out) and ultimately quite functional. Some of the negative aspects we found include the necessity to stake out the bivy to enjoy its roomy floorplan, ineffectual zipper protecting flaps, and the fact that this was by far the most difficult to set up bivy we tested. In good weather, it took us almost ten minutes to get completely pitched and ready to crawl in. This process could be significantly more difficult in a surprise rain or snow storm. In contrast, bivys like the Outdoor Research Helium allowed for an extremely quick and easy setup while offering better weather protection and similar comfort.
