“I'm narrowing down my options for a new bag. Of course, I've considered Feathered Friends, Western Mountaineering and such, but I'd like to find something a little cheaper.

Two options are the Big Agnes PomerHoit 0

Anyone have any pros/cons to the above?”

“I've been looking at the PomerHoit. All specs are better on it (comparing the smaller PomerHoit to the women's EMS bag you linked to) including price. With the BA you can put a pad inside to keep from rolling off.”

“Funny - I didn't notice that small detail! If I dont get out on the trail soon, the womens bags will probably fit my hips better !”

“I have a big agnes zirkel. I adore it. Have had it for three years now and it's wonderful. The sleep system rocks.”

“I have the EMS Mountain Light 20. It packs small, lofts well and is close to its temp rating for this cold sleeper. Based on my experience with the 20, I think the ML bags are decent for the money, espeically if you catch one during EMS periodic 20% off sales.”
