Here's what other sites are saying:

From REI:
"Light and roomy, this high-performance bag from Big Agnes is just the ticket for gram-counters who don't want to sacrifice comfort. Prime 800-fill-power goose down delivers an excellent combination of warmth, light weight, compressibility, durability and value. Underside insulation has been eliminated and replaced with a sleeve for the Big Agnes Air Core Pad, sold separately. Tightly woven, ripstop nylon microfiber shell is both windproof and water-resistant; Durable Water Repellent finish increases water resistance. Nylon taffeta lining is soft, breathable and features a stain-resistant finish. Built-in pillow sleeve lets you stuff a jacket or a pillow inside. Two-way, full-length YKK zipper lets bag mate with another Big Agnes bag. Large draft tube located behind the zipper prevents warm air from escaping and cold air from entering. Includes stuff sack and large storage bag."

From EMS:
"Backcountry comfort, the Big Agnes Zirkel, is luxuriously warm ( down to 20 and packs down really small thanks to 800 fill down. Match this bag with your favorite mummy shaped pad for a good nights sleep. Every Big Agnes Bag requires a pad to provide the insulation on the bottom. Integrated pad sleeve means you never roll off your pad again. Mummy shape decreases weight & packed size. Recycled mesh storage sack & nylon stuff sack included. Built in pillow pocket holds a fleece or Big Agnes Pillow. Interior fabric loops for sleeping bag liners. No-draft collar seals around neck to keep cold air from sneaking in. No-draft wedge insulates the connection between the bag and pad. No-draft zipper tube insulates along the length of the zipper. Shell and Pad sleeve: Toray fabric. Ultralight, high thread-count, rip-stop nylon with durable water repellency technology."

From CampSaver.com:
"The Big Agnes Zirkel Sleeping Bag stands alone as the ultimate three-season bag.Its shell is made of Toray ultralight fabric and filled with high-grade 800 fill goose down.It weighs just 1 lbs 14 oz and is rated to 20 degrees.We recommend using the Big Agnes Insulated Air Core Mummy Pad for use with the Big Agnes Zirkel Sleeping Bag."

From Backcountry.com:
"At only two pounds, the Big Agnes Zirkel 20-Degree Down Sleeping Bag easily cuts weight off your three-season camping kit. The insulation in sleeping bags becomes useless when it's compressed. By replacing the insulation with a sleeve for a Big Agnes 20-inch-wide mummy-shaped pad (not included), Big Agnes brought the Zirkel's weight down to about two pounds and created a system that keeps you on your pad while you sleep. Inside the water-resistant shell is warm, light 800-fill down. The Zirkel also has an integrated pillow sleeve, where you can stuff your jacket, making yourself even more comfortable while you sleep."

Men's Zirkel 20°

"Ok, I've only used the bag for two nights. I used the bag in conjunction with the Big Agnes Wedgie bag expander. The Zirkel has a little more room than other mummy bags, but because the pad is attached, it limits movement a bit (e. g. the bag won't move with you if you try to bring your legs up, it's stuck to the pad beneath)."
