Advantages: Extremely Warm. Considerable Amount Of Down Disadvantages: I Can't Think Of Any
...for quality by volume. The formula refers to the fill power of each ounce of down by cubic inches per ounce. For 800 fill, the minimum measurement is 800 cubic inches per one ounce of down. When we label our down, we use the symbol “+” to signify that our fill typically supercedes the minimum requirements of fill power").
This is the warmest bag I have ever tried, as well as the thickest. If I had the option of getting any other sleepingbag, then I would have to choose this bag over any other. It's totally amazing, and the hood totally surrounds the head, and forms a tunnel in which to let all your breath into, and out of. A nice thick shoulder baffle keeps the heat inside the bag, and around your body, to keep everything nice and toasty inside.
Take it from me. If there's a better bag in the world, I'd have soon known about it!!!...

Ideal for warmer camping climates and general...

Although it is relatively expensive you are paying for quality.
I have trekked with this in my pack and it has left plenty of room for all the other essentials, such as tent, clothes, food, etc... This sleepingbag is definately a great buy.
My only problem with it is that it did not keep me warm in the winter, but this was to be expected as it is not advertised to be all that effective in conditions below -10 degrees.
I would recommend this to any serious camper/hiker for the spring/summer months.
It is easy to pack down and compress in the bag given, with compression straps. Ends up in at a very manageable size, although not the smallest you can get. The price...
