Great Sleeping bag
We gave up our usual queen size air mattress and bought this sleeping bag for a recent camping trip to the Catskills. It was so wonderful that after the first night, we decided never again to use the air mattress. This is a great sleeping bag for car camping. The warmth, padding and roominess combines for a great night's sleep.

Great Bag
I bought this bag for my 12 year old son to take to summer camp. He loves it. It is well made, zips easily and he loves the color. I'm sure he will get many years of use out of this sleeping bag.

Excellent bag
I like that you can zip two together (be sure you get one right handed zipper and one left handed zipper if you want to do this). The bag is durable. It weighs a little more than most backpackers are used to but the extra room (square-foot style) and affordability off sets that. Contrary to other reviews I've read, I had no trouble getting the sleeping bag into its stuff sack. The color is great (taupe).

Happy Granddaughter!
I have not personally slept in this sleeping bag, it was purchased for my granddaughter on her tenth birthday. My review of this sleeping bag is based solely on my observations and feedback from her and my son. This bag is somewhat large for her, but I felt it would provide some growing room. The materials and construction of this bag are high quality. It's used primarily for car camping (tent) in Northern Arizona where the night temps will be in the 50 - 30 degree range. My granddaughter has never complained of being cold or uncomfortable in this bag, she always looks "as snug as a bug in a rug" when using this bag...it's hard to get her out of it in the morning. We have not encountered any problems using the stuff sack as others have indicated.

Comfortable but HUGE!
This is a nice bag if you're looking for comfort. I like the room and feel of it, but it's definitely not a backpacking sleeping bag. It weighs about 8oz. more than the advertised weight (I got the 'Long' so it was almost 4lb 8oz.), and it is very bulky. Unlike other reviewers, I had not trouble getting it back in the stuffsack, but as I mentioned it's just big! If I took this on a trip, it would take up half of my 65 liter backpack!

great sleeping bag
For me (5'9") this bag is very comfortable. I haven't tried using it in the 20's yet, but it definitely seems like a quality sleeping bag. The stuff-sack is definitely too small, though. I ended up buying a $20 compression sack to use instead, which has been great since you can just stuff the sleeping bag in and then cinch it down.

warm with plenty of space.
Very warm and comfortable bag. Best $ deal for 20 degree bag. I use this bag all year including the snow. for snow camping a quality sleeping pad is a must. I would recommend this bag to anyone. The only problem is that the stuff sack provided was too small.

so far so good
Like the length of the 'long'... feel the warmth almost immediately upon climbing in. Love the versatility of a rectangular (i.e. comforter, picnic blanket, etc...) Light and the price is right.

Great bag!!!
This is a great sleeping bag. It is extremely light and durable. The only problem is the the bag used to store the sleeping bag in is to small. It is extremely difficult to get the sleeping bag into the storage bag! other than this problem it is a great buy!

No reason for a 20 degree mummy
My wife and I are not the biggest fans of mummy bags so we ended up with a pair of North Face Allegheny 40 degree bags and a pair of these North Face Dolomite 20 degree bags. We can zip our bags together and have a set up for almost any conditions we plan to encounter. Comfort was the key to these purchases we are extremely happy with our decision. The stuff sacks of the 40 degree bags are perfect although the stuff sacks of the 20 degree Dolomite bags do seem slightly small like other reviewers noted. They are not 2 sizes to small just slightly to small but manageable.
