I bought this sleeping bag because of it's light weight and all of the good things I've heard about it. When it arrived the first thing I did was to pack it into the included stuff sack and weigh it. Sure enough it weighed 1 pound 12 ounces, just as advertised, on my small, mechanical, postage scale. While I didn't use a ruler to measure the stuffed size I'm guessing that it's about 6 inches by 14 inches. The material it's made of is soft and comfortable making using this bag a pleasure. So far I've used it 3 times and been plenty warm. The night time temperatures were in the mid 30s the first time and the mid 20s the last 2 times. I wore a tee shirt and very light weight long underwear in each case and was plenty warm even though one of the colder nights was in an open shelter along the Appalachian Trail. The regular length bag is for people to 5"10" tall and you can believe that. That's how tall I am and I can't imagine anyone taller using a regular length. The stretch feature is great and makes for a good night's sleep for someone who moves as much as I do in their sleep. Next I'll try it in even colder temperatures. So, if you're looking for a light weight bag, that compresses small, and keeps you warm down to it's rating, this may be the bag for you.
