Built for size and weight restrictions on extended journeys. The Featherlite is regular size with premium fill. Temperature rating is a guage for experienced users who understand proper equipment use. Unlike other Ledge classic and oversize bags it is not a comfort rating but a guide for use.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

It's pretty much a light 50 degree summer bag
Bought this, thinking it'd be a good lightweight mummy bag for some Fall camping.
The #1 thing you need to know that is that this is NOT a 0 degree bag. That's an outright lie, and the manufacturer even admits so: when you open the package, you'll get a disclaimer stating that the advertised 0 degree F is only their "survival rating". So the best they can do if you try using this bag on a 0 degree night is that they'll warranty that you won't die.
But hey, it's cheap and supposedly lightweight, I didn't honestly expect it to do wonders in 0 degrees. I did expect given the advertised rating that it would hold up well for moderately cold temperatures, but it doesn't. Just went camping with this bag in weather that was around 30F, and I completely freezed my as off, couldn't get any sleep, and this was despite stuffing the entire bag with my entire pack of clothes. The heat retention on this is pathetic - I've had cheap no-name brand rectangle bags that are as warm...

Not a 0 degree bag, but great for the price.
I bought three of these, one for myself and two for my pre-teen boys. We've all loved them and for three I paid less than one high end bag. But this is not a high-end bag. It is also deffinitely not a 0 degree bag. For the price it is well constructed, and it comes with a compression bag, which is rare, but it's also not the best designed compression bag. Still, for two younger kids backpacking, it lets them fit the bag easily in smaller backpack compartments. I've slept in this bag down to the high 20's in Northwest Washington and had no problems. I did wear my base layer and one pair of good thermal socks with a lightweight closed cell pad underneath, but I was comfortable. I found this bag had many of the features of the higher end bags I looked at and have used in the past, but for a fraction of the price. The light weight makes this a good three season bag for backpacking too. My boys have also said they've stayed warm even when wet (yes, they wore wet stuff to sleep...
Great sleeping bag
I purchased this for an overseas deployment. It compresses small to fit in a backpack and keeps me warm. I have only testied in mid 20's weather. The reason it doesn't get 5 stars is the zipper catches the sleeping bag material too easily. I am 6'4" and it fits me great. Just remember it is a mummy bag, so it fits a little tight.
