User Review: Western Mountaineering SummerLite

Rating: rated 1.5 of 5 stars
Price Paid: $300

Purchased a Western Mountaineering Summerlite as light bag for backpacking. It is indeed very lightweight and well put together.

But major drawbacks: It is very confining in the torso (I am 5'10", weigh 170) so that my arms only just fit inside. Held up to sunlight the fill is seen to be thin and even missing in places. On two AT backpacking trips of about a week each I was cold at temps in 30-40's, wearing three layers of clothing.
