Summary
This is a good sleeping bag. There are no cold spots or zipper drafts.
I have slept in this bag down to about 26 degrees. The temp range is very accurate. The length is good. I am 5'11'' tall and bag fits well.
The bag has a full length zipper that glides very well. Some others have had a problem with the zipper but I have the solution. All zippers are delicate. You can't just zip it up fast. Pieces of the sleeping bag will get caught in the teeth. You have to zip it up slowly and put your hand in front of the zipper pull to make sure it doesn't get caught. This gear is not meant to be man-handled. You have to take care of it.
But back to the bag. It is synthetic so it is a little heavy compared to down. The bag has nice features such as a draft collar, a huuuuuuuge hood and a roomy footbox. Both the hood and draft collar are able to be tightened with shock cord.
The sleeping bag is easily compressable with the included stuff sack. What you do is push the bag down the bag as far as possible then close off the top. Then what I do to get it as small as it can be is sit on it and pull the straps toward you to make it smaller. That probably didn't make sense... oh well.
The bag is well made and stands up to normal use. I definitely recommend this bag to everyone. Thanks.
