Primaloft SB high loft insulation. A-Flex Lite construction is an advanced shingle insulation system that offers exceptional heat retention and optimal loft and cushioning. Trapezoid foot box matches the shape of your feet. Velcro-free face muff keeps the drawcord and zipper away from your face. Snagless draft tube. Zipper guards to help keep draft tube fabric from getting caught in the zippers. Feely draw cords for easy night time adjustments. Two hang loops. Lightweight compression stuff sack and storage sack included. Left side zipper only."

From Backcountry.com:
"The Marmot Pounder Plus 25F PrimaLoft sleeping bag is a lightweight weather-resistant 3-season bag that's so durable you can use it without a tent. Crazy. The Pounder's A-Flex construction keeps warm air from escaping and moisture from intruding. Just like your Marmot PrimaLoft gloves, the left-zip Pounder Plus keeps you warm in wet, cold conditions, without bulking up on weight or mass. If you're alpine camping, where the weather can change in an instant, the Pounder Plus is the perfect bag."

"This is a great bag, very light and packs tight. I have used it in moderately cool nights around 40's and I have been roasting. It is perfect for backcountry treks and the minimalist who needs great gear without the bulk and weight.

Unless you are at very high altitude or have an inadequate tent this bag is perfect."

"I bought this bag to go on three-season backpacks in the Appalachians, mostly in western North Carolina. It's a great bag for warm nights, but it doesn't come close to reaching its 25 degree rating.

There are cold spots, and even with fleece on, I couldn't get comfortable on nights when the temperature went below 40 degrees or so."

"After reading several positive reviews about this bag, I bought one after finding it at a great price. It's rated to 25 degrees, but for me it doesn't come anywhere near that temperature rating. I'm an average sleeper, neither cold nor hot. At around 47 degrees, I was cold while wearing a single layer of capilene."

"Bought it, love it, use it often. Had it wet at just above freezing, have had it 5 degrees under rating and it keeps me warm."
