We found the best comparison tests of the GoLite Adrenaline 0 mummy bag at Backpacker magazine, where it earns a 2008 Editor's Choice award based on thorough field tests of at least 22 new sleeping bags. We didn't find any reviews of the GoLite Adrenaline sleeping bags at the main retail sites that publish owner-written reviews, but the handful of reviews at BackpackGearTest.org are quite detailed and thorough.

Comparison tests confirm that the award-winning 800-fill down GoLite Adrenaline 0 winter sleeping bag is comfortable down to zero degrees Fahrenheit. By making the zipper half-length and only the two ends water-repellent – where the bag is apt to touch a wet tent – the weight is kept to just 2.75 pounds, less than most zero-degree mummy bags. A women's version is also available, and the lifetime warranty covers any defects. The main drawbacks are the narrow fit and the short zipper down the top – which minimizes ventilation. For a roomier three-season bag that can be warmed up with a winter liner, consider the down-filled Western Mountaineering UltraLight (*est. $360), which weighs over a pound less.

The GoLite Adrenaline series of sleeping bags wins the 2008 Editor's Choice award at Backpacker magazine, the publication that tests more sleeping bags than any other, based on rugged field tests of more than 30 models. Though the fit is narrow, tests confirm that the GoLite Adrenaline 0 mummy bag is very warm, and it's relatively light for a zero-degree bag.

Three users test the 20-degree sleeping bag in the GoLite Adrenaline series, providing very detailed, thorough reviews. Though the bag proves warm and comfortable, the zipper sometimes snags and one tester reports that some air leaks in despite the draft tube.
