Temperature ratings are intended as a guideline to help you compare products, rather than a guarantee of warmth, since many different factors contribute to your comfort while you sleep. Backpacking bags are typically rated for temperature according to an independent testing protocol—currently International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 23537, though some older items followed European Norm (EN) 13537. Testing is based on a person wearing one base layer and a pair of socks, sleeping on an insulated surface with a minimum R-value of 5.38.
Each bag then gets 2 ratings: the Comfort rating is the lowest temperature at which the bag will keep the average "cold sleeper" comfortable, and the Lower Limit rating is the lowest temperature at which the bag will keep the average "warm sleeper" comfortable. Some brands determine their own temperature rating by aligning to the Comfort rating for women’s bags, to the Lower Limit rating for men’s bags, or somewhere in the middle for nongendered bags.

Not for backpacking

This bag isn't 1lb 4.7oz as it says on the website but is actually 1lb 15oz in the stuff sack. The stuff sack doesn't provide any compression meaning this bag is HUGE and not really suitable for backpacking, especially given that it's not actually ultralight (lots of cheaper options in the 2lb weight category). The first indicator that mistakes had been made is the size of the box it came in, which would have been large enough to hold my entire backpack and all of my hiking supplies.

I wonder if she ever realized that the sleeping bag comes in a storage sack, not a compression sack.

If the person who reviewed this first read properly she would see that in the specs it list the weight as 1lbs 14.7oz. I hope she gets glasses so she doesn’t think a bear is a dog on the hike. I’ve had the men’s version of this for years and it packs up easily into my osprey backpack. I was looking at the women’s one as a gift and had to figure out why the reviews were so low. This is an amazing sleeping bag, nice and toasty in 40° weather like the other review stated.
