I've had this sleeping bag for 2 full years now and have used it on several camping trips in the Northeast US.
What I love about this bag is how compact it gets when stuffing it into its pouch. I keep it under the rear seat of my truck but it can easily pack into a backpack or other container for storage. The material has held up well, and it doesn't seem to hold on to any sort of odor. Nothing has broken and it looks and functions like new. I find the bag to be a good size and it's spacious enough for me to roll around at night even if I'm layered up inside.
A couple of small gripes are that the zipper sometimes gets caught on the material when zipping quickly, but not really that big of a deal. The bag also has a hooded part that is supposed to go around your head to keep you warm, but it's too baggy and doesn't stay on your head at all. I wish it was tighter with more elastic tension. I also wish there were two zippers so I could unzip the bottom if my feet get hot. There's only one zipper, so you'd have to unzip the whole thing.
This bag is NOT meant for cold temperatures. Anything lower than 55F at night and you WILL be cold. I just got back from a trip in NH in June, and I was still a little cold at night and had to use an extra blanket. Last year, I did a trip in April and slept with 2 layers on, and was still frigid enough that I was scrambling to cover myself with anything that I had laying around (towels, clothes, etc).
If you're camping in early/late season and you expect temps to be in the low 50s or lower, this is not the bag for you, even if you layer up. Spend a few bucks more and get something thicker. This bag is great for summer, or warmer areas of the world where temps stay above 55F at night.
