Length runs short due to measurement being taken before fill, diamond baffles allow moving insulation around to put more/less in different areas, good customer service reputation, though online ordering/specs can be slightly confusing

Excellent specialized piece for people who know exactly what they want; somewhat pricy for warmth but paid for by ergonomics/quality/customization/options/etc; not on paper the absolute warmest by fill weight/power vs. total weight/price but features and draft protection make up for it; false bottom bag mean excellent performance in colder/draftier conditions but at the expense of ergonomics/adjustability; couldn't find numerical data on -10F/0F/10F options so those are left off list

Excellent specialized piece for people who know exactly what they want; somewhat pricy for warmth but paid for by ergonomics/quality/customization/options/etc; not on paper the absolute warmest by fill weight/power vs. total weight/price but features and draft protection make up for it; very interesting hybrid concept of false bottom bag and traditional quilt that takes good elements from both but is not as optimized for specific cases as either
