Very Warm And Comfortable

This bag is really warm. On my last trip, temps got into the low 40's and I slept with it unzipped down to my waist. I've used it down to about 28 degrees and been toasty. The pillow pocket is handy and my pillow seems to stay under my head even when I switch sides. My only complaints are that it leaks down and the zipper snags if I'm not careful. I'll have to see if the down issue persists after washing it.

Nice, Comfortable, And Warm Sleeping Bag

This is a warm and comfortable sleeping bag. I sleep on my side, and I love that this is designed for that. It is worth mentioning that this sleeping bag is quite big when packed into its stuff sack, but it still compresses a bit when it's in a backpack or pannier.

Really Nice For Side Sleepers

I own the 2022 version. This is a good overall bag that has the added convenience of being designed for side sleepers. The main advantage of this design, in my opinion, is that you can toss and turn from side to side and the zipper is always accessible. It packs pretty small. I put it in my 14L Revelate Terrapin seat bag and can still fit a couple dinners, my Nanopuff, snacks, toiletries, and a few odds and ends. I've haven't had to push the temp limits of the bag, but it's been warm enough for me in high 30s weather. (I sleep cold and wear my medium weight wool base layers.) The Sidewinder does leak down more than any other down bag I've owned. But I think this is mostly annoying (down feathers in the tent) and hasn't significantly compromised the warmth of the bag.

Yes

The zipper did break right away but was repaired for a cost

Great Bag!

I have always been a side-sleeper and really appreciate the attention to detail with this product. I just used it on a 2 night/3 day trek. On the last morning, I woke to snow and frost on my tent fly. Yet, I was warm and comfy. This is a great product.
