This bag seems great if you aren’t backpacking. Unfortunately I will be returning it as it is really big even compressed down. The quality is great but again, just too large for a big backpacking trip!

Lowest price I could find on the net for a good quality Marmot 3 to 4 season sleeping bag. The shopping couldn't gave been easier. The Campsaver prices popped up in the Google shopping search. Price and shipping at site were just as in Google. Campsaver sent confirmation purchase and shipping emails. Item arrived on time in perfect shape.
The Marmot Trestles 0 is a great entry level 3 to 4 season bag for car camping. And yes, I do have numerous other Marmot, Big Agnes, etc. high end synthetic and down bags. I bought the left and right hand zip long-wide bags to have singles and be able to zip them together for a double for friends when needed.
The fill is very thick and comfy. The zippers are heavy duty and function really smoothly. Zipped together, they make a very nice and roomy double.
I have not been able to challenge them down to below freezing temps yet, but at higher cool temps they sleep comfortable. At warm/hot temps, you have to turn them down, or just sleep on top with your liner -these thick bags make great bedding.
The stuff/compression sack is nice and they pack down ok, but are a bit large/heavy for serious hiking. If you have a good four-strap or better yet, a 9-strap military compression sack, you could pack them smaller. However, for any serious hiking, I'd stick with a down bag to shed the ounces and save space.

I am a very cold, cold sleeper. I purchased the 15 degree and went on an over night antler hunt in the Mazatzal Wilderness where it got down to 20 degrees. Happy to say: I stayed very warm the entire night....including my feet! Great bag. And the zipper works great. Its a different design that the standard zipper. Its a snag free design and it really was snag free. I am 6'2", 195 lbs and I have perfect fit with the long version. I love this bag!

This bag is extremely warm. It's a mummy sack so it keeps your head warm as well. I'm on my second bag so my old one is my dog Vinny's (Vizsla) new bed.

For a CAR CAMPING bag this is really great. Very warm bag. It packs larger. It weights a little more than the stated weight, mine is a large and comes in at 6lbs 2oz. But if those things are not issues it’s a great deal. $140, It already paid itself off for me on 1 photography trip of not having to stay in a hotel when the temp really dropped at night.

It was good, get used to the use in the daytime first, there are zippers and snaps in odd spots. Useful spots, but hard to find in the dark.
