"This is my first down bag and I am very happy with the purchase. At 33oz/+20*/$209, you'll have a hard time finding another bag that is as lightweight and reasonably priced at a +20* rating. You could get lighter, but you would pay as much as 50% more. I have used this bag for summer/early fall camping in the CO Rockies (low about 30*) in perfect comfort. Pertex shell sheds water nicely and the thing packs down to the size of a loaf of bread. My only complaint would be the shoulder girth as it could be roomier for those with larger than normal shoulder width:height ratio. The regular is sized up to 6', which is my height, so the bag might be roomier for those shorter that 6'. If you are looking for 3 season down bag be sure to check this one out."

"I used this bag on a 35 miler in North Georgia with temps in the low 40's and in a rare South Florida freeze with high humidity. On each occasion I was very comfortable. I'm 6'-3" and use a regular bag as I tend to curl up on cold nights. In warmer weather with my head out of the bag room is not an issue. This thing squeezes down really small with the included compression bag. When not in use, it's hung over a hanger and enclosed in the storage sack (also included). The +20 rating may be a bit optimistic, but for the price of this down bag, I can't complain."
