I bought this product for backpacking, however, the items packs larger than I had expected. It appears comfortable, and I can still use it for everyday camping activities.

Warm and Comfy! I slept in a three-season tent for 3 nights in 36 degree temps and this sleeping bag kept me unbelievably warm! I truly believe the 30 degree rating for this sleeping bag is pretty accurate.

I used this the first night I got it. It got down to 14 degrees and it kept me comfortable and warm all night. If you keep tension on the zipper when using it, then it should work fine as it did for me. There were no problems with the zipper. It is a bit heavier than the Cat's Meow, but the extra comfort on a cold night is worth it to me. I am a 5'6", 190 pound side sleeper and there was plenty of room. I plan on carrying it with me on the CDT one day hopefully.

I purchased after ordering a different bag on another site that was just too bulky/heavy. This bag is extremely light and compacts down very nicely. Love the synthetic alternative as I'm allergic to down. It is perfect for 3 season backpacking trips. Looking forward to testing out its temp rating in some lower Yosemite temps soon.

I was looking for a synthetic compact cold weather sleeping bag and this fit the bill. It's just under 4 lbs (which isn't bad for a cold weather synthetic bag) and compacts pretty small. My Mountain Hard Wear Lamina 5 doesn't compact as small and weighs almost a pound more. It comes with a compression sack and storage bag. Haven't used it yet but will update when I do. Seems nice though.

I use to product to sleep comfortable in my tent during the cold months in California when temperatures drop down to the low 30s. It keeps me very comfortable, insulation is great and it keeps the cold out and maintains warmth inside the bag. Thought the bag is a bit snug around the shoulders, could be due to I do have broad shoulders at 6'3" 260lb.

Its soft and cozy. I love the glow in the dark zipper handle. Packs real small for synthetic.

This bag is well executed. Fill is evenly distributed and thick. The weight of this bag provides assurance it will come thru on cold nights. The downside is that it is far from lightweight. The main zipper pull is well designed for easy location and one finger pull so you don't have to hunt for it in the dark.

Great sleeping bag. Very warm and roomy. I am 6ft and I fit great in the regular bag. Only problem with it is it doesn't pack down as small as I would have hoped. However, for a synthetic bag its no too bad.

I was deciding between the Guide 20 and the Cat's Meow 20 sleeping bag. The lack of reviews on this bag made me hesitant, but I'm so glad I chose the Guide 20. Although the Cat's Meow seems like a fine bag, the Guide 20 packs amazingly small (stuff sack is almost too big for the bag), it's incredibly lofty and warm, and I love how it is minimally insulated on the back (where the sleeping pad would be). It helps with compressing the bag, and back insulation loses all loft anyway while sleeping. It definitely performs and looks great while doing it. Includes the bag, a large mesh storage bag (which it ships in), and a compression sack.
