Freat warm roomy bag. i have purchased 3 over the past 2 years and the zipper has broken on all 3 within the first few uses. they are still great for sleepovers, cabin retreats, etc but they are no longer serviceable for outdoor camping. i have been buying from STP for almost 20 years and these are the only poor quality items i have ever purchased.

Got this in an effort to keep warm at night and decrease heating costs. Too big and bulky if you want to backpack with it, but is warm and VERY comfortable. I'm not big, but this is the most comfortable mummy I've had. Nice draft collar, adjustable hood. Suspect it will more than pay for itself in a few months. Really nice bag.

After reading other reviews and ratings of these bags, I was convinced that they would be a great buy for the low price. Those reviews turned out to be completely accurate. I took these bags on a beach camping trip and they were both comfortable and warm. The bags are wide and roomy, which allows them to be comfortable at a variety of temperatures (great alone for warmer weather, and plenty of room for extra layers in cooler temps).
These bags would be a little touch heavy for longer backpacking trips, but are perfect for day hikes or car camping trips. You can't beat them for the price.
Other reviews exphasized problems with zippers snagging, but I didn't experience any troubles with the zippers.

Great bag for the money. Purchased 2 for my wife and I. I'm 6'0" 250lbs and glad I went with the long model, it gives you more room width wise.
Nights hit a low of mid 20's and with a sleeping bag(old ones, nothing special) under and on top of us and stayed warm. We slept on an air mattress.
Packs away in a nice size stuff sack that comes with it, size of a watermelon. Never had a bag rated to 20 degress and have been impressed by this one. Would recommend.

Great Bag! Just a little large for backpacking. I am 6'3" and had room to spare. Packs down okay in a stuff sack, but still a little big to lug around.

Disclaimer - my total time of use is 5min ... consisting of unpacking, unzipping, climbing in, climbing out, zipping up, and stuffing into the included bag.My kids and I plan to camp in weather no colder than 45F to 50F. So why a 20F bag? I figured for the price even if this isn't a 20F bag, it's got to be better than anything I could purchase at [...] a similar or higher price. I also can't afford multiple bags so I have to go with the coldest expected temperatures we would see.My first thought is that this doesn't seem like a 20F bag ... not enough fill or loft. But see my disclaimer above.Similar to other comments, I did snag the zipper the first time I zipped it up. It took all of 10 seconds to release it, though. Not a big dealRE: the LONG version. I am exactly 6ft tall and pondered whether to buy the regular length or this long version. After climbing inside for just a minute or two, I feel I made the right decision in getting the longer bag ... seems like I have just a few inches of clearance at the end of the bag. I would think my feet would be pressed against the end of the bag with a regular length.

I ordered 3 of these nice long sleeping bags to keep at our lodge and to put into our emergency preparedness kit. Since I've only tested mine in enclosed areas, I can't vouch for the 20 degree rating. And, yes, like I was warned, the zipper can catch but with careful practice during your trial run you can learn to avoid major problems.
Impressed with the draft tubes and quality for the money.
