I have this bag and like it. The bag packs small and with the pad slid into the integrated sleeve makes it very comfortable.

As Sleddog mentioned, this bag is a Big Agnes system bag and there is no insulation on the underside of the bag. The insulation is provided by the pad. Big Agnes recommends a 25 inch wide pad to be used with this bag. I agree with this. When I first bought the bag I went with a 20 inch pad I already had to save some cash, but found it too narrow for the pocket which allowed the pad to slide around in the pocket.

And I agree, it is a lightweight bag and you will need to use a liner and/or long under wear for the cooler nights.
