Great sleeping bag
This is a great sleeping bag. I have used it more than a dozen times in high 20s and low 30s. I stay nice and warm no issues at all. Lots of room to move around I’m 6,3” and 225 and I have good room. I’m using the Long. Overall great quality and I stay comfortable. I would absolutely recommend this sleeping bag.

Great bag
I purchased the men’s tall and the women’s regular for my wife and I. We have taken the bags on a 35 mile two night backpacking trip and a two night car camping trip. The bags kept us warm and comfortable with low temps in the lower 30’s. Many reviewers say and I agree that for longer backpacking trips the weight of this bag can become an issue. We are not ultralight hikers or long distance trekkers, maybe someday? But for us now and for the price point, I could not be happier with this purchase.

Awesome sleeping bag
Brilliant bit of kit. Exactly as it said on the website. Roomy bag that I can actually move around in and sleep on my side. I ended up buying 4 bags for a trip.

Nice Sleeping Bag
I am a side sleeper and one who tosses and turns. I don’t like narrow mummy bag and this was a decent compromise. Overall, I’d say it was a worthy purchase. A criticism I have of the bag is the zipper. While they advertise the zipper as one that won’t get stuck I’ve found that it does and once inside the bag, the inner pull is hard to manipulate.

Good-bye Mummy!
I'm a tall side sleeper with wide shoulders. Conventional mummy bags make me feel way too, well, mummy-like. This bag is great. Room to turn. Room at the foot. I can finally turn without fighting the bag the whole time. Warm too! Sure glad NEMO came up with the obvious solution.

Best sleeping bag I’ve owned
This is the best sleeping bag I’ve ever owned. I did think it would be much smaller though being a 50° bag, but it’s actually slightly larger than my 20° bag. Bought with backpacking in mind, but probably too large for that. As a car camping bag it’s so roomy, and the quality is fantastic.

Warm and spacious!
I bought this last fall and wanted to give it quite a few trips before I posted how I felt about it. My first few trips were in the fall in the midwest and temperatures dipped into the low 40s and high 30s. Just wearing tights and a t-shirt I was very warm, almost too warm (not a bad thing). I was also using a low R value summer pad. My trips in the winter dipped into the 20s and I was still using a summer pad but was in a puffy, tights, and hiking pants and was still comfortable. Compacts down pretty well, has plenty of room for side sleepers, and is very comfortable!

Nice Bag For the Price
Was looking for a warm but not to costly bag that also wasn't too restrictive ,and boy I'm I glad I found the NEMO Tempo 20! As a side sleeper mummy bags are just way to tight, and old school rectangle bags too bulky. The NEMO Tempo 20 is a perfect solution. A couple early spring camping trips to the Appalachians proved that the Tempo could hold up to its rating, and provided plenty of room to get comfortable in.

How do you use the stuff sack? On one end is a drawstring, and the other is open ended with straps and a cover, don’t understand how to attach it or what it’s purpose is.
