Holy Smokes!

For this price you will not find a better sleeping bag. It's Mountain Hardwear... they don't make a bad product. No, it's not a Lamina, but even still this sleeping bag is super warm and top quality built--for under $100. I would say that the Switch is equivalent to the Mountain Hardwear Lamina 35, as far as warmth goes, but for a lot cheaper. It will certainly keep you warm at 20 degrees, if that's your bottom line. As always wear some warm base layers (polypro top & bottoms)to ensure warmth when pushing the lower end of the temp ratings.
