Our family has four of the 0 degree slick bags.

They dry really fast, all are still working.

Bad deal is, they lose loft over time from being stuffed over and over, so they get colder.

I have a 20 deg bag and love it. My only complaint is that I've been cold in it, but those temps were likely far below its temp rating.

I have one and only wish I had bought it 20 years ago.

I'm a wide-shouldered guy, and it's the only LW bag that truly fit me (I ordered the "wide" cut). The construction seems top-notch, but I've only had mine for a couple of years now so it's a bit premature for me to say much beyond that.

I weighed mine on the local PO scale near my house, and it was within 2 ounces of stated weight for what that's worth.
