Here's what other sites are saying:
From Campmor:
"Remarkably light and compact, the Marmot Helium fifteen degree down sleeping bag delivers impressive insulation. Use it as a three-plus season bag to substantially reduce your load while backpacking and mountaineering. 850+ Fill goose down. Stretch tricot baffles. Nautilus hood. Hood draw cord. Velcro-free face muff. Passive collar helps prevent heat loss around the neck and head. Full length zipper for easy in/out. Down filled draft tube. Zipper guard keeps the fabric from getting caught in the zipper. Classic trapezoidal footbox for more room. Ground level side seams. Stuff sack and storage sack included."
From Backcountry.com:
"The Marmot Helium Sleeping Bag packs smaller than a loaf of bread and takes you down to 15F weighing an astonishing 2lb. Versatile and ultralight, this 850-fill down sleeping bag ranks among the lightest on the market in its class. Perfect for spring and fall adventures (or even mild winter conditions), the Helium packs away efficiently in smaller packs. Just because it's featherlight doesn't mean it skimps on features. A full draft collar seals in precious heat while a mummy shape lets you hunker down when need be. For spring peak bagging and high desert trips, the Helium is your bag of choice."

My coldest night so far in the Helium was 10F (-12C) and wearing only briefs and t-shirt I experienced no cold spots even rolling around a bit."

The only part of me that got cold was where the bag hit the bottom of the tent and where the sleeping pad did not cover there."
