Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"The Western Mountaineering Puma Super DL: -20 Degree sleeping bag will see you comfortably through the most brutally cold nights. A ski tour across the Anaconda Pintler Wilderness is no easy affair. It is cold and remote and trying to cross the Continental Divide may be impossible. But this Big Sky state will offer you magnificent views of the northern lights, as long as you're willing to crawl from the warmth of your Puma Super DL. This winter bag sports 8.5in of massive loft to keep you thermally content all night long to 20 below. The two Interlocking draft tubes are thickly filled with down and are constructed entirely of DryLoft fabric to ensure weatherproofness. A 3-dimensional down filled collar surrounds your neck, and it too is made with all DryLoft fabric to protect the insulation from your frosty breath throughout the night. The hood is large enough to fill around your face and provide a ruff for your forehead. Its DryLoft shell provides all the weather protection you'll need in a snow cave or single wall tent and the foot section is sewn with 2.4oz taffeta for added protection when gear is stored there. -Vendor"

From Oregon Mountain Community:
"To some people winter mountaineering is just a pastime. Be it searching for an uncut bowl to tele, a frozen waterfall to climb or a simple visit to the Brooks Range, the Puma Gore Windstopper™ has been there, done that! This sizable bag is lofted with down and roomy to boot! 37 ounces of 850+ fill power down lofts this bag to a full 9" for a rating of minus 25 below! A shoulder girth of 64" provides room to layer, store clothing or fit to big folk. The inside foot section is sewn with a 2.4 oz. fabric to protect the bag while stowing gear. And the Reverse Differential Hood is roomy, down filled and warm, and totally made with Gore Windstopper™. The full down filled collar and both Interlocking Draft Tubes are also completely made with Gore Windstopper™ fabric. No place to cut costs! Few continents require anything warmer than Western Mountaineering Puma Gore Windstopper™!

"Bought this bag in college about 13 yrs ago; best money I've ever spent, and I've spent a lot of it ;) This bag is absolutely bullet-proof and warm as can be, plus it compresses to the size of a volleyball. I use mine in all manner of temperatures, even when sleeping indoors; just don't zip it up."

"This bag works really well for brutally cold conditions. I originally purchased this bag about 5 years ago, looking to replace a 5 degree North Face bag that wasn't cutting it for me in extreme cold. So far I've used this bag about twenty or thirty nights in temperatures ranging from 10F to -20F."

"A great bag with immaculate build quality, a ton of loft, double draft tubes and a comfortable hood. Haven't exposed it to anything colder than -17 C but I'm confident that it'll keep me warm and cozy at -30 C.

If I had to do it all over again, I'd probably get the microfibre version instead of the Dryloft."

"Not fully tested yet under very cold conditions, but at 15F. . . .

Just roomy enough to be warm and comfortable. I can flop side to side without twisting the bag with me. Lining is very smooth but strong feeling. Pleanty of foot room for streaching feet and morning clothes."
