Here's what other sites are saying:
From Backcountry.com:
"The Kelty 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. 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:
"Great for summer camping, climbing and backpacking, the Light Year 3D 45 sleeping bag is a superb design for conditions where evening temperatures drop twenty or more degrees overnight. While this synthetic fill mummy bag is comfort rated to 45F, it features a zippered foot vent to help prevent your feet from overheating. The Light Year 3D 45 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 rectangular bag with a full length zipper. On the other hand, if you want the mummy profile but need warmer for those cooler evenings in the high country, check out Kelty's Light Year 3D 25F sleeping bag."

Note that I have used it in 48-68 degree temperatures. It may be too warm for summer. Time will tell."
