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.

Zipper Design Ruins an Otherwise Great Bag
Really disappointed with this bag. The temperature control “gills” are a great idea in theory, but the zipper design completely ruins the experience. The zipper constantly catches the surrounding fabric to the point that it’s almost impossible to open or close smoothly. I encountered this issue immediately upon unpacking it, and the fabric even started to tear just from trying to use it normally. For a product at this price point, this is a major design flaw. A sleeping bag should be simple and reliable, not frustrating to use right out of the box
Great Bag but one flaw
I bought this 3 months ago now and have used it dozens of times. I just last night spent the night in 38° and wind. The 35° marker on the bag is the extreme, so I was chilly in my tshirt and shorts, but I put some pants on and I warmed up nice. The bag compacts nice and small, and weighs like nothing. And I love it. Treat it nice and it’s amazing. The one flaw is the gill zippers are small which means they can snag. But it’s a light weight sleeping bag. The people complaining about the zippers are right about it snagging, but it’s their own incompetence in my opinion. But I’ve figured out how to zip it up quick without it snagging and can do it in the dark now.
Vent Zippers Easily Get Stuck
2nd attempt with bag. Both brand new and never got to use because vent zipper got stuck on both. Won’t be making that mistake a 3rd time.
Great high quality
this is a great bag if you take care of it
Almost near perfect
Felt great trying it. Until I wanted to zip up the ventilation on the side. It’s near impossible to not get the zipper stuck on the ventilation material. It’s so loose that I had to stick a finger in there to keep it tight enough to not get caught. It still got caught. And on one side it got completely stuck and it messed up the sleeping bag.
Bad out of the bag
Ventilation zipper didn't even make it one full zip before it impossibly snagged and tor a hole in the material, just happy it happened right away.
Light and Comfy
Used this camping a few weekends ago here in Texas. We are on the Verge of summer so it only got down to about 58. Super comfortable bag!
