Here's what other sites are saying:
From Campmor:
"The North Face Blue Kazoo is a fully featured, technical fifteen degree down bag for three season use. 600+ Eastern European goose fill down is lightweight, compressible and warm. Trapezoidal baffle construction holds the down in place and prevents cold spots. Climashield Prism anti-compression pads create an insulating buffer between you and the ground and are far more resistant to compression than down. Shadowlite SL nylon ripstop top shell. Silky nylon taffeta lining. Seven-chamber sculpted hood with single-point hidden cordlock adjustment. Down-filled draft tube and face comfort tube with enhanced internal heat trap. Vaulted ergonomic footbox. Ground-level side seams. Glow-in-the-dark zipper pull with bonded zipper garage. No-Snag bonded stiffener in zipper column. Bonded watch pocket with bonded water resistant zipper. Sleeping pad retention loops. Nylon storage sack and siliconized stuffsack included. Choose right or left side zipper."
From Backcountry.com:
"The North Face Blue Kazoo 15-Degree Sleeping Bag has 600+ fill down that plays a toasty tune down to below freezing temps. Extremely compressible and durable, this is the classic North Face all-around backpacker's bag. As usual, The North Face has constructed this bag with the utmost detail. Listing all of the Blue Kazoo's technical features is enough to put you to sleep, so we'll cut to the chase. Its silken lining feels wonderfully soft on your skin, and it's breathable so your funk doesn't fester inside your bag all night. Heat traps and draft tubes minimize heat loss throughout. The Blue Kazoo is so comfy, you'll say to hell with seeing the sun rise over Lone Peak, and instead choose to sleep in. But just in case, The North Face has integrated an ear-level watch pocket so you're up in time. When you go to rest your weary head, stuff the Blue Kazoo's external pillow pocket with your down or fleece jacket and voila! Instant pillow. Store your Blue Kazoo in its nylon/mesh storage bag so the down doesn't lose its loft and pack it in its stuffsack when you're on the go in the backcountry."

I used it up in the Sierras and woke up to about a foot and a half of snow and still was not cold."

Two items are not perfect. The main zipper sometimes gets stuck in the zipper cover fabric. The other is that it could use a little more knee space for us fetal sleepers."

However I have one complaint: Whenever I'm wearing shorts in this bag the seams inside the bag have a rough feeling on my legs, and it will only stop if I don't move my legs at all."

Pros: it does keep me warm at +30F, and it's very light and can be compressed into very small pack."
