Here's what other sites are saying:
From Backcountry.com:
"The Kelty Women's Lightyear 3D sleeping bag is an easy-care synthetic bag that's perfect for wetter climates. The Lightyear 3D uses two-layer, offset quilt construction to help trap heat more efficiently and ensure uniform coverage of insulation. Polarguard 3D is not too heavy, packs well, and retains most of its heat even when soaked through. A draft tube runs the entire length of the Lightyear's zipper. In a particularly clever move, Kelty put the Lightyear's side seams at ground level, which means the seams aren't sitting against your body. The Women's Lightyear uses Kelty's women's cut to give more insulation in key areas and fit a woman's body more naturally and comfortably. Loops to tie on a sleeping pad and a zippered foot vent let you get maximum comfort and therefore maximum sleep out of your Lightyear."
From Altrec Outdoors:
"For most of us, Kelty's Light Year 3D 25 is all the sleeping bag that's required for three-season camping, climbing and backpacking. It's an affordable, well-designed, easy-care bag that offers high-end features like a differential cut and ground-level side seams to minimize cold spots and heat loss on frosty nights. The Light Year 3D 25 also has a practical zippered foot vent that makes it easy to cool your toes throughout the warm early hours on a summer evening. The Light Year 3D 25 is easy to clean and repeated washings won't compromise the insulating properties of the Polarguard 3D synthetic fill. It even comes with hang loops for drying. One thing to consider is that Kelty reduced the weight of this highly compressible sleeping bag by extending the side zipper only to the hip. Backpackers and campers who require more cooling might need a slightly heavier bag with a full length zipper--if so, check out the 20F rated Mistral sleeping bag."
From Powderfin.com:
"FREE Shipping on orders over $50. 1-800-986-0656 The Light Year 3D is a great down-alternative sleeping bag for 3 season camping and backpacking."
From EMS:
"When you want a lightweight synthetic-fill sleeping bag built with great performance features, while still being comfortable and proportioned specifically for a woman's body, the Light Year 3D should be at the top of your list. Kelty's women-specific sleeping bags are designed to fit a woman's anatomy and cater to a woman's circulation needs. What does this mean? More hip room, narrower shoulders, and extra insulation for those body parts that become cold quicker (feet, chest, head). Polarguard 3D insulation has a high warmth-to-weight ratio, is lightweight, will insulate even when wet, and will not mat or clump, which eliminates thin or cold spots. Shell made from nylon/polyester diamond cross-dye ripstop for lightweight strength; liner made from a soft polyester taffeta. Zippered foot vent allows for lower body ventilation; hip-length two-way locking zipper helps to reduce weight. Two-layer, offset quilt construction; differential cut eliminates cold spots. Ground-level side seams and hip-length draft tube prevents heat from escaping and keeps the cold out. Sleeping pad security loops for strapping pad to bag; hang loops for drying; FatMan and ribbon drawcords for easy cinching and loosening. Internal liner loops to secure sleeping bag liners. Nylon stuff sack and cotton storage sack included."

Not sure what happened @ Kelty, but we thought we were getting a mummy bag and opened the box to find a square bottom."

My only gripe (and it's kind of a biggy) is that this IS NOT a 25 degree bag."
