Comments about Marmot EcoPro 15°F Sleeping Bag (Long) - 2008:
I am so far perfectly pleased with this bag. I have used the bag on the AT, the beach, and backyard in 60-80 degree nights and have slept through the nights every time. I am 6'2" and 185lbs, the bag provides more than sufficient space for me. I have not had a chance to use it yet below 60 degrees, but so far I have been very comfortable in it. Even on warmer nights it does well as a blanket. The bag is breathable, lightweight, and has good loft. The zipper is sturdy and does not snag. My wife has the women's long version and also could not be more pleased. I wouldn't mind the bag being a little lighter, but for the great price and quality of a Marmot, I'll gladly shoulder the extra ounces.

I recently took this bag on a week long backpacking trip through the Tetons. I was informed that it would be very cold at night, and I was a little worried so I wore many layers to sleep in, but I was not cold at all. I was so warm that I had to take off most of the layers I had been sleeping in.

The only con would be like the ones i read online before purchasing it... namely the zipper system is not a pull-and-dont-worry-about-it design. you have to keep the threads straight and the bag out of the zipper. but who cares! for the price, this is an AMAZING bag... I think it should be double what i paid for it here. crazy good deal. temp rate is right on. And dont listen to people talking about the compression sack being hard... just dont roll it up before putting it into the sack, or it will take you 30 minutes. just stuff it into the sack, and it takes 30 seconds.
