Temperature ratings are intended as a guideline to help you compare products, rather than a guarantee of warmth, since many different factors contribute to your comfort while you sleep. Backpacking bags are typically rated for temperature according to an independent testing protocol—currently International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 23537, though some older items followed European Norm (EN) 13537. Testing is based on a person wearing one base layer and a pair of socks, sleeping on an insulated surface with a minimum R-value of 5.38.
Each bag then gets 2 ratings: the Comfort rating is the lowest temperature at which the bag will keep the average "cold sleeper" comfortable, and the Lower Limit rating is the lowest temperature at which the bag will keep the average "warm sleeper" comfortable. Some brands determine their own temperature rating by aligning to the Comfort rating for women’s bags, to the Lower Limit rating for men’s bags, or somewhere in the middle for nongendered bags.

Quality synthetic bag
2 months ago
I picked this up as a backup bag, and I’m surprised by the quality of the materials; they are very soft and comfy feeling. This really is a fantastic value in a 32F/0C bag. It’s perfect for alpine backpacking in the summer and would work really well for trips on the coast or in the rainforest here in the PNW where it can rain any month of the year. It’s synthetic so even if it gets wet, it will keep you warm (though the experience will still be not fun…). I remember the days of synthetic mummy bags weighing 5 pounds, so this only being three pounds is pretty nice. It packs down pretty darn small using the included compression bag, so you really can hike with it. Also worth noting; If you buy the long version it’s a bit wider, which I prefer. Overall, this is a winner and can’t be beat for the price!

Best bag I've ever owned!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this sleeping bag for its warmth and loftiness. It is also lightweight, fast drying, and never retains odors after even my longest trips. It is effortless to pack into its included compression sack, and easy to fit in a backpack. The main zipper is double sided and has plenty of clearance so it rarely gets stuck. The whole bag includes many thoughtful design details that makes it a very comfortable and long lasting purchase that I'm looking forward to many more trips.
Yes , I recommend this product
