Price Paid:  $85.00 at coast mtn sports

Summary:
I bought this bag for cycle touring and found it to sufficent for three season work. However I think North face has over rated it's temperature rating at -7c. At 0c I had to sleep in long johns and socks to keep comfortable. For the price though the weight and features the bag provides, are adequate for an entry level piece of equipment.

Customer Service:
good

Price Paid:  $85.00 at Campmor

Summary:
I purchased a LH & RH to zip together:)
However, I use the bag solo most of the time.

I have found the NF Blaze to be a decent entry level bag. It packs heavy & large for a 32-35 deg bag, which for me is the comfortable low in this bag. However, the manufacturer rates the bag at 20 deg. My opinion is based on 5 trips this past year using both tents & hammocks, 1 & 2 pads, snow & dry, calm & windy conditions.

I plan to upgrade to a WM down bag.

I consider it a decent 2 season bag and will keep it around to 2 bags zip together.

Customer Service:
Campmor's service is great. The product shipped quickly & I was able to track it thru the UPS website.

Summary:
Great, inexpensive, synthetic bag. In order to stay warm at its 20-degree rating, though, I have to sleep in my clothes. At 40F I can sleep in as little as I want and still stay warm. Plus it's relatively light for a synthetic. No drafts. No frills, but it's a bargain for under $100.
