I've used this quilt for about 20 nights now and continue to be impressed. Total weight in the 6' normal width model is 21.6 oz.
I have had it down to 21F. Sleeping in a bivy on a NeoAir and a 1/8" thinlight with a Montbell UL Parka and warm base layers on, I was comfortable at that temperature. I would say the temperature rating is right on target.
The normal sizing is very generous. I am 5'10 175 lbs and I have plenty of room to sleep on my side and the quilt is long enough that I can pull it up over my face if I need to.
The pad attachment system works wonderfully - it feels more like you are in a sleeping bag than a quilt. Drafts have been a total non-issue and once I clip the pad in, I don't have to touch it again until I am packing up in the morning.
I have very few pieces of gear that I can't think of a way to improve - this is one of them. 5 stars.
