I have tried several other bivys, and had problems with too snug fit, xs condensation, and seam leakage. The OR has worked well on a 5 day ridge running trip in Glacier Nat Park end of September. It improved my sleeping bag warmth by 10-15 degrees F, and kept me dry in a light rain. Plenty of room inside (I'm 6'1", 175 lbs), and the loops on the front are great to keep the netting off my face when suspended from hiking poles or branches. Easy to enter and exit. Folds up small for packing, very light for it's features, very happy with my purchase. Very useful for light, fast, high mountaineering.
