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.

Warmth on a budget
1 month ago
This bag provides decent warmth which makes it good for early or late season Sierra trips. It could stand to be a touch wider in the shoulders but overall it's a decent bag, especially given the super friendly price-point. Where it loses a star is the packed size which is taking a lot of space in the backpack and the somewhat annoying zipper (no biggie, just noting). If you're going to backpack into the mountains all winter long, invest in a more compressible down bag, otherwise this is a good compromise.

Packs big, but warm and affordable!

Bought this for early / late season backpacking into the Sierra, where temps can drop into the teens. Took it up to 12K and spent a couple of nights in the low 20's. I was warm enough to shed my base layer in the middle of the night, so while I haven't had the conditions to really see how far the temps can be pushed, it did deliver the warmth expected. Sizing fit me okay, could have used a bit more room around the shoulders but that's pretty common for me (somewhat wider shoulders than average). The weight is actually not too bad given that down bag same size and warmth aren't that much lighter. The negatives are mainly the packed size, it's big and being a synthetic bag it does not compress well. I found that if I don't compress all the way in the compression sack it's actually easier to lay it sideways in my pack (Osprey Atmos LT 65), making better use of the space, YMMV. The zipper can be a touch finicky too. On the positive side, the pricing is very reasonable, seeing that any down bag with similar warmth and sizing is going to be AT LEAST 3-4 TIMES more, makes it easy to forgive the places it falls a little short. If I did more winter trips I might be tempted to get a down back so that the packed size shrinks down, but for the handful of days a year when I will use this, it will do just fine.
