Got this as a spare bag to loan out. Not too many complaints about it. Actually almost none. I use it for car camping. and snow cave camping.

A good value in a sleeping bag, my only complaints are the lineing is a little sticky if it warms up and it could use a little more shoulder room for anyone of a larger size.

Great bag for the money! Packs well and keeps me warm to +20. Suggest a liner for colder nights and more comfort. Gets pretty sticky without one.No zipper problems and dries quickly. Real pleased with it! For $70 its a heck of a bag!

For the money ($89 for the 15 degree model), this bag is an amazing value. After a dozen or so trips, it appears to be well made and durable. The Hollofill is on the heavy side, but has kept me warm on ten degree nights when I've awoken to find frost on the outside of the bag. The bag is somewhat bulky, though buying a smaller stuff sack that the one provided helps with this. Again, this is a CHEAP sleeping bag that performs like a much more expensive one. It's also quite roomy and comfy on the inside. If you can get past your gear-snobbery, you'll be surprised that a ninety dollar bag can fulfuill so many of your backpacking needs.

I have the 15 degree version of this bag I love it. Its economical and functional good 3 season bag little heavy maybe 1/2 pound over the usual bigillion dollar bags. Lets be realistic if your just a weekender or at most 5 days skimping
on a pound or two won't kill you and if your a through hiker you dont care what a green horn like me has to say.

This bag is nice, it holds up in the cold but gets sticky in warmer weather, usuly when that happens i unzip the bottom so i have a hole for my feet and some ventilation.

I have used the Aurora for Bicycle Touring and found it to be a good bag fo the money. I would recommend using a liner as on colder nights (below 30) it can be on the cool side... and on warmer nights the nylon lining can be a little sticky against bare skin. It's stuffed size takes up little space strapped on top of the rack/panniers.

This bag has been good as a general use sleeping bag for the last four years. It was cheap yet it keeps me warm down to 20 degrees and my wife warm down to about 30 degrees. It is, indeed, heavy and the stitching is a little tender. A good starter bag that will eventually be replaced with a more expensive version by one of the top makers.

This bag did a week in Philmont and stood up well to the rigors of the trip. It is really a 2 season bag for our climate. The price was right, It may be a bit heavy for backpacking but the value out weighs that. Throw it in the dryer before a trip and it wil loft out well.
