This is a rectangular bag, with actual comfort and limit temperature ratings, in a price range that I can hand over to my kid... and it's nicer than I expected! The insulation is well distributed with no gaps at the edges. There are insulated zipper plackets. The zippers are plain ol' zippers (no magic to keep fabric from getting stuck in them) but seem to work well. The lining isn't the ultra-smooth stuff that causes sweating and then sticks, but it isn't rough or fuzzy either.
The 3.7lbs/fill bag has a comfort rating of 41F and a limit of 32F. So it's not ultra-lightweight, but we're not going backpacking -- and I didn't want to pay for an ultra-light bag that will require more careful washing and storage anyway. (Lugging their own stuff from the car to the campsite builds character, right?) I think it will be really difficult to get the bag back into the compression sack, but it has cords on the end for old-school rolling and tying.
Edit: After taking the bag camping, I can say that my kid was ok using it in 50-degree weather. The zipper that holds the round/headrest part onto the body of the bag keeps wanting to come unzipped, so when we got home I zipped it up and sewed the zipper teeth together just past the slider. This is within my limit for reasonable product customization, but I would also have happily paid a few bucks more for the bag to have a zipper that stayed in place without modification.
I have not tried to wash it yet.
