Great value for the price!!!
This sleeping bag is a great value for the price! My husband and I purchased it for a camping trip to Olympic National Park and it certainly was exactly everything as advertised. It was surprisingly light (we are car campers), and packs down to a small size. The water resistant outside was very handy as it rained heavily for part of our trip, and we got some water in the tent, but we stayed dry inside the bag. I even machine washed everything (following the instructions) afterwards, and it came out great!
The only downside for me was that it was not quite long enough for me, but that is just because I am about 5'9" and like to cover my head when I sleep. Haha! But my husband who is a similar height was just fine sleeping in it, so I am sure it is just me not being used to sleeping in a sleeping bag lately.
If the temperatures are going down into the 30's you will be okay, but you might want to sleep with a hat on or a little blanket for the part of you that is exposed if you get cold easy. Inside the bag was nice and warm but the parts of me I couldn't get inside were chilly on those brisk nights.
Oh one tip, I found it was easier to fold and roll the bag, rolling the pillows inside as you go, then squeeze it into the compression bag and compress it further from there if you would like. Rather than simply trying to stuff it in. The bag does a great job of compressing once you get it in there, but the sleeping bag doesn't want to squeeze down into it easily. Hehe :).
Overall I would totally recommend this bag, as there was certainly enough room for both my husband and I to sleep comfortably, it kept us warm and dry, was quite comfortable, and is machine washable! :D Plus the compression bag does get down to a great size! I also love that it does separate into two separate bags as well and the pillows are a very nice bonus. They are small, but were nice to sleep on.
The pictures were taken right before I packed up on our last morning, so it is not the prettiest setup, but it is a few days into actual camping with it.
