Very durable, keeps you warm and cozy!
By Paddywhack on Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2016
This is a very nice sleeping bag that is comfortable, lightweight, and very portable for backpacking. While it's not the thinnest or lightest, it is a great value and a very high quality product. I bought two of these - one for me, one for my wife - and we have used them in both car camping with my child and also back country backpacking. This bag works great and I am very happy with this purchase. Here are my thoughts: 1. The 20 degree rating is a survival rating. For comfort, add about 20 degrees - call it a 40 degree bag. If it's going to be warmer than that, you can leave the bag partially unzipped. If it's colder, you will need a base layer to help you preserve your body heat. 2. This bag works fine for me as far as size - I'm about six feet and average build. There's plenty of room for my feet (which stay good and warm by the way) as well as tucking in your head if I choose to. I normally leave my head out and just wear a cap if it gets too cold. 3. The bag is very durable. We have used our bags numerous times and there have been no problems with the zippers or the construction. 4. There's no need for a compression sack - this compresses pretty small as is. Again, we love these. It's not the lightest, the most insulated, or the biggest brand name, but it is very good and durable for the price. I highly recommend this to my fellow backpackers without hesitation.

Small price tag for a small fitting bag.
By Street Mod Ty on Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2016
This is more of an unboxing review, and also it is more of a 3.5 star review. Just got this from UPS, opened it up, and got it out of the stuff sack. I hope I am able to stuff it back in because it was a tight fit. I bought this for the purpose of backpacking. It will never see use other than that as I have a nice, large, roomy sleeping bag when space isn't as much of an issue. With that being said, this bag can pack down small and is light weight. They do this by not making the bag much larger than is needed to fit a human inside. I am about 6 foot tall, and weight about 235 pounds and built like a hockey player. I am pretty much a brick... Size 13+ shoes, wide hips and shoulders. I stated all of that to help describe the fitment. It fits like a human condom on me... Normally I sleep pretty spread out with my arms and legs going all over the place. I won't have the space to do it in this bag. It is just wide enough to have my feet apart about four to six inches. It is pretty snug at my shoulders, and enough room in the hip area to wiggle back and forth a bit. So, small fitting aside, the bag is warm. Damn warm. It was low 60's in my living room when I crawled into it, and it took maybe three minutes before I was toasty warm, almost to the point of sweating feet. The insulation they use seems like it will get the job done very well considering there really isn't much around compared to the larger lightweight bags on the market. Another selling point for me was the price. Not many bags are out in the market for under $60 with the build quality of this one. After seeing the fancy high dollar bags that go for $200+, the only thing they would have is more space inside the bag. Pretty sure I will be happy with this sleeping bag out in the field. I also have a Teton sports back pack, as well as my son's sleeping bag. They make a quality product and even offer a lifetime warranty. ******update***** So I took the bag out for a hunting/camping trip to the grasslands of central/eastern Washington state. The overnight temps got down pretty low, maybe high 30's as a guess on the higher side. Once I got shimmied down into the bag, I stayed warm. But when your feet are semi moist from being wet all day, and you are cold and trying to crawl into a tight fitting sleeping bag in a one man backpacking tent, it is a rough experience. If only the bag was just a pinch wider all the way down, it would be perfect. I understand with more bag = more weight and size. But it literally just needs to be maybe two inches wider all the way down to be a wayyy better bag. Once inside, you are kinda screwed if you are a rough sleeper. I roll around, toss and turn, and that is hard to do in a small fitting sleeping bag. I will keep it, and hand it down to my youngest son for when we start camping and I will try to find another bag for myself. I had to drop it from a 4 star (really 3.5) at unboxing to a solid 3. It is a great bag, with great materials and construction, just super small.
