I’m sure it’s warm but the advertised weight is way off. Compressed in its compression sack it weighs 3.15 lbs. that’s nearly a pound heavier than it advertised.
So far, I'm really enjoying this sleeping bag. Warm, packable, lightweight for a synthetic bag, and eco friendly too! It's definitely a little bit bulkier and heavier than my old Big Agnes skeeter SL 20 (down), but it still subs into my regular pack without an issue! I'm interested to see how the white holds up, but I'm not too worried about some dirt showing as it gets more use. I'm about 6'1" and I went with the regular size, and the fit is nice with some room in the foot box. The compression sack that it came with ripped down one of the seams my first time using it, but otherwise everything has worked great so far!
Simply Amazing, get one! I needed a failsafe synthetic cold weather bag for mixed conditions and landed on the 15 degree Lamina Eco. Its soft and supple, incredibly comfortable, the color reminds me of luxury hotel bedding which gets your mind right for how you will sleep. Pleasantly surprised by how small it stuffed on a recent trip, only took about half the volume of my handlebar bag. . Never felt damp or clammy even when my clothes were damp, warm and comfortable down to 30 degrees on a recent trip.
Underwhelmed with this sleeping bag. I run cold, so it was particularly disappointing that the bag didn't keep me warm in pretty cushy conditions. Approximately 45F outside, slept in my car, and was still too cold! In addition, it fit too tight. I'm 5'6", have used mummy bags for 25+ years, not particularly big, and it was still cut too narrow to be comfortable.
The quality of this bag is excellent, as is the zipper, etc. and love the idea of an ECO friendly bag, problem is it is brutally tight in the shoulders. I am not huge at 5'-8" and 22" chest, but I cannot even zip this up. Maybe a fluke from the manufacturer. So it went to my 10 year old, she loves it.
I so, so wanted to love this bag, and I really do appreciate Mountain Hardwear upping the game of synthetic sleeping bags. And I will say, the bad itself is comfy! However, it’s definitely well over 3 lbs (and I bought the petite) and takes quite a bit of effort to stuff in my backpack.
It’s a great bag for sure! My only complaint is that I’m a bigger guy at 6’1” 240lbs and it is definitely snug around my chest/shoulders. I ordered the biggest one available.
The bag responded as expected , the sales discount make this a good purchase to an excellent one .
