      Comments about Kelty Light Year +0 Sleeping Bag - Regular:

      I took this mummy bag camping in Colorado in Feb. and slept quite comfortably in +10 degrees F. Very good loft, I stayed very warm. I had no issues with the zippers as other reviewers mentioned, but I work zippers carefully. The draft tube along the zipper is great. Remember this is a down bag so don't buy it if you can't keep it dry.

      Comments about Kelty Light Year +0 Sleeping Bag - Regular:

      This is a great product at its price range. I got it on a special so I paid even less. This bag was taken with me while climbing Mt Whitney in the beginning of may, I was so warm that I even opened the feet zipper to let more cool air in.

      The bag stows into a very small stuff sack making it great for backpacking,and not that difficult to shove in there. If you are planning on using this bag in moist conditions, I would think twice, down is not the greatest for that. Great for cold conditions, keeps me warm every time.

      Comments about Kelty Light Year +0 Sleeping Bag - Regular:

      Have not tested temperature rating on this bag yet because the following reasons have stopped me taking the bag in the field.
      -the zipper catches extremely easily. there is a thick fabric lining the zipper which fools you into thinking that it won't catch the shell fabric. this fabric has a very bulky seem that along with the shell fabric, catches very easily.
      -not very lofty, i know that the fill is 650.... i don't feel that it would do so well in 0 degree weather. would rather spend the money for a 800 fill bag.
      -i am 5'3'' tall and weigh 130 pounds. overall the bag is comfy but i cannot sleep on my side with my knees bent as the bag is too narrow.
      - the compression bag is not easy to use. you must undo at least one of the straps to pull the bag out and the handle at the end of the sack is sewn on at one side which basically just makes it a flap not a handle.. what the heck kelty?
      if you're not too desperate to stay toasty and want to save a little money on a good bag i would defiantly recommend this one. as i am desperate and wanted to save money... well, i just don't think you can have the best of both worlds here.
