This is a very lightweight sleeping bag, meant for indoor use (in my opinion). We have a camper van which is insulated and shielded from the elements so a lightweight sleeping bag like this is all we are looking for. It is the same kind of 100% polyester fleece you find in most clothing, etc. but is a little heavier weight than your average cheap polyester throw blanket. Two bags can be zipped together if you'd like and because it's so thin it rolls up about 33% more than the standard bag. Again, in my opinion, not really for outdoor use, not for conditions below 60 degrees.

Rolls up pretty small, warm enough when its cool cool enough when its hot. Used it in Panama. Great for hot weather with cool nights.

Bought a couple of these to use as sleeping bag liners for those particularly cold evenings. Have not used them yet but the weight of the material is what I expected, certainly thick enough to serve as a stand alone bag on summer nights and supplement a more substantial bag for very cold nights.

Was just what I expected. A good lightweight squishable bag for those not too cold nights and summer in the mountains(as long as you are not too high up)

I bought this sleeping bag as a light addition to my outdoor/survival kit, something that would help keep me warm should I need to sleep outside for any reason. I used this sleeping bag when I spent the night at my friend's house, and wound up putting all my clothes back on (in addition to my pajamas) in order to get to sleep. The sleeping bag itself has no insulation, it is made out of thin black fleece that you can see through when held up to light. The zipper is a bit flimsy, and may take some effort to reconnect should you unzip the bag all the way. It is also a bit small, not a lot of room to move around.

This is a sleeping bag made for extremely mild to warm nights, or to use indoors. If you must use it on a cold night (I live on the Oregon coast, so nights average anywhere between the 30s in winter to low 50s in summer), remain fully clothed and stay in dry areas. This would provide almost no protection from wind and rain. It might be a good idea to use this along with a mummy-style emergency blanket at the same time, the fleece providing soft comfort while the emergency blanket keeps you warm.
